This month at Barreworks...
Earn points as you pulse...
As if a lifted seat, sculpted thighs, flat abdominals and a good dose of endorphins weren't enough to keep you motivated, we've come up with even more ways to reward your hard work at the barre.
We're introducing… The Barreworks Frequent Flyer Programme..!
A barre-savings account that gives you points for attending classes, referring friends and special promotions on selected products.
Each visit you make earns you 50p into your account. It might not seem a lot, but if you take classes 3 times a week, over a month, you'll have racked up £6. That's over £75 a year, just for visiting. Once you hit £10, you can redeem the value against class packages and product purchases.
If you're on our monthly subscription, each time you refer a friend to Barreworks (and that friend also signs up on a monthly subscription), you'll get a £5 discount (per friend) on your monthly payment each month*
*Your discount is applied for as long as your friend holds their subscription. Just contact us to set up the referral and redeem your points!
TAKE.THE.PLUNGE...
We've just introduced a special New Client Introductory Pass.
If you have never tried Barreworks but you're keen (or brave!) enough to jump right in for a month of unlimited classes at just £79, jump right in.
This offer cannot be used in conjunction with the New client Try Out/Free Second class offer, but will allow you to try our classes for an extended period of time and really see the results that come after just a few short weeks. Available via the Online Shop.
Big Day approaching...?
If you, or someone you know is keen to get in the best shape of their lives for the big day, you need to know about the all-new...
Barreworks Wedding Package.
- 6 weeks of unlimited classes
- A private, group session (thigh-quivering hen-do, anyone?)
- And an hour in the Studio to practise your first dance(husband or wife-to-be included)
All for just £250.
Backless, strapless, off-the shoulder or downright figure-hugging, we'll make sure you have the perfect body for any dress you like...
Saturdays at Barreworks...
If you thought shaking and pulsing at the barre on the back of a tough week/late Friday night was hard enough, this might make your eyes water.
Or it might be music to your ears…
We’re introducing a brand NEW 75-minute class at 10.30am on a Saturday morning, taken by Vicki and Zhivka on alternate weeks.
In response to popular demand (and clear evidence that many of you can handle a grittier WorkOut), we’ll be digging deeper and for longer to build on your regular weekly WorkOuts.
Accelerate your progress, improve your technique and discover even more impressive results.
Sign up from 14th March, 2015.
Hit the barre for lunch...
If you've finally had enough of picking your tuna sandwich out of your keyboard and decided that in 2015, you WILL take a lunch break, where better to spend it than with us, at the barre. We've recently introduced express WorkOuts on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays to help you achieve a better work/life balance. The class is 45 minutes long, but streamlined to ensure that you don't cut any corners...a slightly faster pace means you'll get the full benefit of an hour at the barre, with still enough time to grab a sandwich and get back to your desk in the nick of time.
The benefits of a lunchtime WorkOut will not only be evident in your skinny jeans, but also in the efficiency of your work, you'll feel energised, instead of burnt out, focused instead of frazzled and with a PROPER break from the confines of the office, you'll feel calm, collected and ready to arm wrestle your boss if required. Book in now!
Innovation is our thing...
One of the things we're most proud of at Barreworks is our unending variety of exercises. Our pledge to you is that you NEVER do the same class twice. That's why you never 'conquer' the method and why you never reach a plateau.
It's also why we won 'Jointly-Commended' for the 'Most Innovative Business' at the Richmond Business Awards last week! Thank you so much for your votes and support!
WorkOut with us ONLINE!
If you have yet to try our legendary WorkOuts, or live too far away from the Studio to visit, you can now workout with us ONLINE!Perfect for the intrepid barre newbie, the addicited barre veteran or anythign in-between!
To start with, we've launched 3 WorkOuts, Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. So whether you're new to Barreworks or you're a regular, you'll find a level to suit you.
We've also included modifications and additional challenges within each video, so you can alternate between them to give your body the amazing variety of movements you have come to expect from our Studio WorkOuts.
If you want to accelerate results from your WorkOuts even more, or really earn your piña colada on holiday this Summer, this is for you! Click here to get started.
Following the HUGE success and popularity of our monthly Sunday Workshops, we've decided to make them a weekly event!
These sessions cost you just one credit, but you must be a Barreworks member to book your space. Each 90-minute workshop (5-6.30pm) is structured slightly differently to our regular classes, designed to work your body and mind on an even deeper level than usual. We introduce new movements and exercises, ‘experiment’ with exercise ‘aids’ and leave you with a special treat to reward your efforts! If our WorkOuts are worth their weight in gold, this one is 24 karat.

Barreworks Boutique...!
We thought a ribbon-cutting ceremony might be a little dramatic, but you'll be delighted to hear that Barreworks is venturing (tentatively) into the world of retail! We've got a collection of carefully selected and specially-designed items, we know you're going to love.
We've recently discovered Natural Hero products and we LOVE their Hot Ginger Muscle Rub (£9.99). It's like a sports massage in a tube, it heats up on your skin and smells incredible.
And love your feet or hate them, no Barreworks WorkOut will ever be the same again without a pair of our signature Barreworks grippy socks (£12). You'll never falter in a plié again!
Of course, you can continue to purchase our DVDs, beautifully embroidered leg-warmers and tote bag and for the really brave amongst you...a pair of foot-sliders...!
All items are available for purchase in our online shop, for collection at the Studio.
This'll make you 'Appy...
We want to make it even easier for you to book classes (and have the perfect excuse to side-step too many parties) so...we've been busy developing an iPhone/iPad App! Now you can book, cancel and check in to your online account on the hop. Click here to download it for FREE!
The results are in...!
What came first the chicken or the egg? Do stairs go up or down? How do you know which armrest to take in the cinema? How many calories do you burn in a Barreworks class?
Some things you just need to know. And while we can’t answer all of life’s curiosities, we can state with absolute certainty that your average Barreworks class will set you back a pretty impressive 347 calories a time. 10 plucky Barreworks clients took part in a study run by independent online health & fitness guru, Fitbug.
Fitted with heart-rate monitors and special Fitbug ‘movement monitoring’ technology, we discovered that the average heart rate during the class was 111bpm, maximum heart-rate was 146bpm and the equivalent calories of a rather large piece of chocolate cake could be burned. Hurrah!
And those clever people at Fitbug are able to calculate (using MET scores) that this equates to a mind-blowing 9,914 ‘aerobic’ steps. So go out into the cold and run for 45 minutes if you must, or come in from the cold and work out at the barre instead!
