Foundations Intro #1 to Pure Barre

[@theNamesMaddyO]

I took Pure Barre for 3 years, and went 6 days a week and was obsessed. I was a dancer for 16 years so it was amazing to find a workout that I could resonate with. I tried gym workouts but never actually got to a point of feeling strong, but with Pure Barre I had full on arm muscle, thigh muscle, butt muscle, and abs! I was so sad when I moved away, and my new hometown does not have a Pure Barre studio. Thank you for this video, felt just like I was back in the studio!

[@starmsjc]

Do they have the barre code studio?

[@hopesparks9772]

I'm starting PB in one month. You should consider opening your own PB studio. I bet it would be fun, rewarding, and the community would love it.

[@kristenalyce_dancefitness]

I took a Pure Barre class for the first time a week ago and it was Pure HELL!! And I say this with love! Like, I didn't know what to expect but what I DIDN'T expect was for it to burn like that!! I am posting this comment before trying this video so let's see how this kicks my butt! Want to get in a few more at home sessions before hitting the studio again because whew chile, I was embarrassed by the amount of breaks I had to take!

[@katherinewhite433]

Thank you so much for posting this with modified movements. I'm so out of shape I don't feel comfortable going to class yet because I can't keep up. I will use this to work hard so that I can go to class! I went 7 years ago and them moved abroad and really missed them. I remember classes were so fun! Thank you a million!!!

[@reneepark5200]

PureBarre is the answer to the body you've always wanted.

[@rebeccadubose2434]

Pure Barre was the best and hardest exercise class I ever did. Did it two years. Amazing.

[@cristinamendez6798]

Antonio is all of us trying not to die while doing this LOL hes my favorite haha

[@BrokeToBlessed]

First Barre class ever and this was soo great! I was shaking soo much during the thigh and butt work. I also definitely felt it in my standing legs like she said. I cant wait for the next class.

[@AshWP]

Absolutely loved this video! I wanted to feel the burn and oh boy, I really did! My only request would be to have the camera really show the micro tucks as it can get a bit confusing. Really enjoyed it though and going to do this again!

[@andreahenry3151]

I thought the workout was excellent. I took ballet when very young. I hate to say this, but, I am thinking whomever like Michelle that thinks this workout is not challenging, must not be doing it correctly. I challenge those people to make it work. Drive your legs higher, squeeze tighter, concentrate. There is much subtlety in these movements. Check form too. You should feel it. I took 3 local classes after the first free class because with all the other classes I do, this was the only one that made me so sore the next day I could hardly walk so I wanted more! I would take it more often if I could afford it. I will be 70 this month. I have Silver and Fit so can go many places for free. Thank you Katelyn. I will mix this video in on some “resting” days.

[@Pure_Barre]

Hi Andrea, thank you so much for your feedback! We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed this workout!

[@ilmanley]

I've been coming back to this workout for over two years. I'm amazed how effective it is every time I do it. She's a fantastic teacher! Thank you!

[@persianeyesxo]

Do the other barre classes too … like Mx up routine!! Lol you know! I was going to a pure barre studio then the pandemic hit!! I had done 1, 035 classes… so glad I found you !! So also do the empower classes and reforms!! I love this and stated doing my barre classes again and you’re a fabulous teacher!!

[@soccertokki]

Thanks for this free foundations class, I've been missing the studio quite a bit!

[@许程程-u5s]

I love the modified movements as my core is not strong and I had an injury on my back before. Also, Katelyn is very thorough and professional, I feel like I was motivated to practice more and I add this video to my watchlist

[@irenabykova2738]

Love this work out! Have been trying to do it every day. Please post more!

[@alisondodson6911]

Love this workout so much! And love the instructor! Post more like this!

[@dancer_traveler]

Just finished this workout - liked it a lot but realized that I don’t have a good core. Dreading the soreness tomorrow, but will do this again. Thank you!

[@phoenixalchemy777]

Omg, I did this yesterday and I am definitely feeling it today. Will definitely keep this one in my rotation! Hurts so good...lol

[@nicoles5069]

I wish they posted more videos like this!

[@1992nicoleta]

I have been doing Pure Barre for a while now. This is a great work out for home and Katelyn is such a good instructor.

[@rig2376]

I learned a great deal with your easy-to-follow instructions. I followed Antonio this first time and feel like I got a great workout, but will definitely keep this in my workout rotation and build up to regular instruction. Thanks for the foundations class!

[@selenabone1]

You're awesome! This is a great workout for someone like myself to follow as I have a neck issue.

[@cynthiahays7624]

Katelyn is a fabulous instructor! Thanks so much for posting this video. I will add it to my quarantine line-up. Even though I've been doing Barre a few times a week for years, this was a challenging work out. The modifications were great, too. Thank you!

[@NYyogaGal]

Me at the beginning of this video: yay! Let’s go, Kaitlyn! Towards the end, f*** y**, Kaitlyn! At the end, thank you so much Kaitlyn, that was awesome and I feel amazing!

[@XxBiancalynnxX]

I did this yesterday and today i feel the burn 😅🥰 but it was just an amazing class

[@tinat5484]

I did Pure Barre for 4.5 years 3 to 5 times a week and I was in great shape and never got injured. Then COVID happened and I quit and started doing different exercise routines. It took 3 weeks to injure my shoulder and 4 months to mess up my knee.

[@brandon20904]

Just did the free Pure Foundations course this weekend and had a ton of fun. As Cali mentioned this is what you should expect from the foundation's course. Feel the burn!

[@lisamays912]

Brandon Geekabit I’m going this morning at 11am

[@nataliecrouch927]

Thank you so much! Great workout and teacher!

[@mariatorres9819]

I've always wanted to do pure barre.I never realized that it was ballet exersizes. This hard core tough.

[@cl6998]

I have been missing my Pure Barre classes so much and I can't believe how much this one feels just as challenging as a studio class. Thank you!

[@sharonl3722]

Thank you so much for this video! I loved it!!

[@esenarslandogan3821]

Kaitlin where can ı find more workouts such as this one which was a good fit for me

[@angem8320]

Loved the workout, it reminded me of the Lotte Berk method.~Thank you for sharing...

[@elizabethsullivan3838]

How much do these gyms typically cost monthly? I find it’s a bit difficult to get any exact prices on the websites.

[@Pure_Barre]

Hi Elizabeth, the price depends on where the studio is located and the membership type you're interested in. If you contact your local studio directly, they will be happy to provide you with their pricing information :)

[@samanthat7457]

Elizabeth Sullivan I’d say price for unlimited classes can run between $150-$250 depend on where you live. Prices can be cheaper if you choose 4 or 8 classes a month. Drop in one class around $25-$35 ( depend on location ) Current promotion they offer pure foundation on their schedule for first time client try class for free!

[@helenthomas6716]

I love Pure Barre❤

[@pitaRobyn]

I have a few FB "friends" that are fans and have been posting, I truly appreciate this video so I can try one workout and see if PB would be a good fit for me. thank you

[@caliinthevalley24681]

YES! You know I did Pure Barre for a little over a year had about 300 classes under my belt and in all my time there I wished that Pure Barre did something like this a class that showed modifications so it doesn't scare people who are interested but intimidated by this type of workout. I mean that full teaser is an advanced move! I saw so many people quit after 1 class and I have to admit I was one of them that wanted to quit after right away. I'm happy I stuck it because it really is a GREAT low impact workout that is NOT easy. I quit after a year just because I needed to change things up but this video really is making me want to go back. For anyone interested this is what you can expect for your first class. Don't be fooled these baby weights and small movements are challenging. Kudo's Antonio for being featured here. It is a great work out for men women and people of all levels!

[@njp2621]

Really good point! I used to dread the beginning of class with all the floor work planks, tricep dips etc I couldn't keep up with the other girls lol glad to see these options!

[@basiaperry177]

none of the exercises were intimidating machine to someone who’s NEVER worked out before not even in elementary

[@dawnrunner121]

Is there a way to access the library of Pure Barre classes that had participants in them? Kaetlyn was one instructor and Brooklyn another. There were so many on demand and I felt like I was in a class and love that! This one is very good with two other people, but I never liked Pure Barre Go because it was the instructor alone. Anyone have ideas?

[@AnnieBrackett88]

I still don’t understand how instructors can do a full class while talking hahaha

[@tiantiantianlan]

They just don’t. For pure barre classes I take the instructor usually demo for about 15 minutes for a 50-min class

[@deborahlynn6354]

A lot of people who thought they were in shape thought the same thing. 😂

[@CarolGiambri1]

The instructors are all amazing. Regards of which class I go to. It is always a great workout. I’m a fairly new member.

[@queunlimited4779]

YUUUUUUKKKKKK! That's a personal feeling about Pure Barre and Barre but love Ballet Barre. this is just allll over the place, my general experience with this form of exercise. Maybe I haven't tried it in the right mood but I can't see how it would satisfy my focus nature.

[@carinagardner7745]

Wow! this is a great workout. Thank you!

[@pythiasfarinas3451]

What time is the best to do work out

[@violetblythe6912]

The only thing I hated about Pure Barre is how they blast this obnoxious club music and then yell with a microphone..... it's terrible and just disorientates me and puts me in a bad mood. Never went back which is sad because the workout itself is good (the music is so much worse in person, not like this video). I don't understand why it has to be so LOUD.

[@bettyboop1524]

I'm surprised that there is carpeting and not wood or tile floors. How do you keep this carpet clean/sanitary with all the sweating that people do? I've done Barre3 and the floors where without carpeting and they got mopped quickly after class including the mats. I was thinking of trying PB, but now after watching this I'm having second thoughts.

[@Pure_Barre]

Hi Betty, if you reach out to your local studio with this concern, they will be more than happy to tell you about how they keep their carpet clean and sanitary :)

[@catharineellengould8016]

Thank you Katelyn!!! Great class!!!

[@МадамЖу]

Super!!!

[@AFarrell]

Great stuff. Thank you

[@ahmoseh3718]

💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

[@RobinKHood]

I still can't do it even with the modifications. I can't roll on my lower back and knees, without padding, like they are asking.

[@dkbp73]

You might want to try Barre3 online workouts instead. Their workouts aren't as long and I feel like their modifications are MUCH better than Pure Barre. I use a thick Pilates mat for floor work, and it helps tremendously. I've done both workouts, and for someone just beginning, in chronic pain, and/or recovering from injuries, Barre3 is easier for me to follow. The online instructor Andrew is amazingly supportive.

[@NYyogaGal]

Like you’re driving a little car… idk who drives like this 🤣

[@amanda5887]

I love this instruction and modifications but the music is so obnoxious and distracting 😂

[@siriuslili]

The music sucks. Sorry, but I can’t get into a workout with annoying music like this. Ruins the entire workout.

[@rachellereed371]

Is that really Antonio in the back because it looks just like Pastor Steven Frulick from Elevation Church on KZbin! :) :) LOL

[@thebluedot4728]

her voice gives me anxiety

[@MD-et7uk]

my heart rate never got out of the 50's, it's nice to see someone with the same thunder thighs i have doing this, but i want to get rid of mine. it just wasn't that hard

[@Pure_Barre]

Hi Michele, thank you for your feedback. Our Foundations class is our "beginner" type class as it breaks down the technique and moves at a slower pace, so it is an easier class. Our classes are not designed to get your heart rate super elevated, as the focus is on small movements. However, if you are looking to raise your heart rate, we recommend you try Pure Empower, as that class incorporates more cardio elements.

[@marzipan2555]

idk where you see thunder thighs in this video tbh. you sound like you have body image issues

[@vcrcooking]

It's not a cardio class. If you have good form it should be very difficult.

[@noram1307]

thunder thighs ???? wth where??
