Barre Sculpt- Tightening Your Glutes

Barre Sculpt is one of the fastest growing fitness trends right now. Also known as Pure Barre, Ballet Barre, Ballet Fitness, Ballet Bar and other creative names. Essentially it is a class using the ballet bar and core strength to lengthen and strengthen your body. This class is firms your glutes and helps lift them back to your where they were in your teens. It can also increase your flexiblity by tightening the muscles then stretching it after. You do not need to be a ballerina or any type of dancer to take this class. Most exercises are designed to lengthen your muscles as well as tighten and tone. The exercises are performed with small movements or range of motion to feel a "burn" and are repeated multiple times. Many of the exercises are reflective of  a mat pilates class and keeping the core tight with short breathes to get the maximum amount of force to the muscle. Although you may feel your heart rate increase at times, this is not a cardio class. It is a sculpting class. We have heard members say that they can start seeing results of a tighter core; glutes, abs, thighs, lower back, and even calves and arms within a few weeks. Sweat Cardio offers Barre Sculpt Mondays 11a, Wednesdays 4:30p and Saturdays 11:30a. 
No shoes required. Some people will wear socks or toesox which are available to purchase at Sweat Cardio and Sweatcardio.com

  1. This is one of the best workout routines I have ever attempted. It has tightened and firmed areas on my body that are hard to target through running and yoga alone. I love the way Yvonne incorporates yoga into the workout so we get stretched and toned between isometric muscle contractions. It is a great workout for any age and she will accommodate for injuries you may have so you get the same benefit from the routines. LOVE this class, even if it kicks my behind, lol
