Current and upcoming courses

Barre Fitness

PE153

Barre is a full body workout that incorporates body weight strength, pilates and ballet exercises. Workouts are set to fun and high-energy music. The exercises are designed to exhaust your muscle groups then stretch targeted areas to build strength and flexibility. Over the course of the semester we will deconstruct a Barre workout to teach students proper form, mind and body awareness and build strength. Upon completion, students will have the strength and endurance to complete an entire 60 minute Barre class.
