FAQs

What should I wear to class?
Wear pants, leggings, or capris that you are comfortable in and a workout tank or t-shirt. You will also need a pair of Grip Socks to prevent your feet from sliding in class and for studio hygiene . You’ll remove your shoes and put on your Grip Socks before entering class. Grip Socks are available for purchase at the studio.
What should I bring?
We’ll have all the equipment you’ll need at the studio, so just bring a pair of grip socks, water, a towel, and a positive attitude. We do ask that you do not bring your cell phone into class. If you’re expecting an important call, you’re welcome to leave your cell phone at the front desk and we’ll alert you if you’re needed.
What time should I arrive before my first class?
We recommend that you arrive 15 minutes before class begins. After arriving, the teacher will show you where you can store your belongings and show you the equipment for class – typically a set of light weights, a ball, and a tube. Your teacher will bring you a mat halfway through class.
Can I take New Ways Barre while pregnant or have an injury?
Consult your physician, but if you have been taking Barre classes regularly, New Ways Barre can continue to be a safe and effective exercise option while pregnant or recovering from an injury. Everyone’s situation is different, so it is a good idea to consult with your doctor to ensure he/she is comfortable with you continuing to take a class. Make sure to let your New Ways Barre staff and instructors know that you are pregnant so that we can walk you through any modifications you may need through different stages of pregnancy or injury. As with any exercise program, if at any point during your workout you begin to feel faint, dizzy, or have physical discomfort, you should stop immediately and consult a physician.
Where do I park?
There is limited on street parking right in front of the studio. Public parking is available across the street behind the shops. Parking is free. Sometimes it can be tricky to find a spot so give yourself plenty of time. Doors to class close 5 minutes after class starts. This ensures everyone has the proper warm up and is able to perform the moves safely.
How soon will I feel results?
You can see & feel results in just 8-10 classes. For optimal results, classes should be taken three or more times per week.
Why does my body shake?
When your body shakes, it means your muscles are reaching the point of fatigue, which is a good thing! Your goal is to have the muscle group you are targeting during a specific section of class shake every time. After the shake, you will stretch, to elongate the muscles while they are warm and malleable. This leads to long, lean muscles!
Should / Can I cross-train with New Ways Barre?
Yes! The increased flexibility, core strength, and low-impact movements of New Ways Barre help prevent injury and improve endurance in those who are cross-training for a sport or race.
