WORKOUT CLASSES TAUGHT
A Bar Above The Rest
Since our inception, the Bar Method technique has been led by science and proven with results. The anatomy and physiology we incorporate into our classes create the unique, precise movements that make the Bar Method technique so special. With elements of Pilates, yoga and other strength training workouts fused into a ballet-inspired barre workout, your clients will experience unthinkable flexibility, total-body definition, and metabolism-boosting endurance that lasts long after class.
Hear From Our Owners
“I love that we are helping women get stronger not only in their bodies, but in their minds. We have such an incredible, committed and supportive client base which makes it really fun to come to work each day.”
MELISSA RAMSEY
Owner in Bernardsville, NJ
“What led me to Bar Method was my faith in the Bar Method itself and the technique itself. I had experienced it as a student, I’d experienced it as an instructor and there was something just so amazing about it that I knew I wasn’t alone. I knew that if I could just bring it to other people, that they would love it as well. I had faith in the technique, in the classes, in the brand.”
KATIE MUEHLENKAMP
Owner in Brooklyn, NY
“My youngest client is 22 and my oldest client is 76 and we have everyone in between. And that is what I think is one of the things that makes this workout so special, is at any age, it’s going to be good for you.”
KIMBERLY MARX-STEELE
Owner in Santa Clarita, California
“I think from over six years ago when we started until now, I feel the same sense of support, but in a much more structured and organized way. Self-Esteem Brands has brought a lot of great structure and organization to The Bar Method. And it does feel like we have a powerhouse behind us.”
ANNA TREPANIER
Partner/Owner, Darien, Connecticut and New York City, NoHo
“People come into The Bar Method looking for something to change their lives. And so I would have these experiences there that were so powerful. And it was just that feeling that I had been really running after and trying to find.”
LARA MEEHAN
Partner/Owner, Darien, Connecticut and New York City, NoHo
