Be a Tucking Queen at The Bar Method
Bar classes have got to be the hardest type of workout to explain to someone. Half the time I talk about it people thing I’m becoming a bartender. Not the case.

What to Expect in Your First Pure Barre Class
After shoulder surgery and 6 weeks of inactivity, I decided it was time to raise the fitness barre. I rallied and purchased a one-month class pass for $99 at the River Oaks Pure Barre Studio to get myself back into shape.
