Xtending our Barres

Friends J, K and I attend Pilates classes at Perth Pilates Studio. We usually just attend the Pilates Mat classes which use your own bodyweight to strengthen our muscles and tone up the wobbly bits - and trust me, there are plenty of those!
 
On Monday, J and I attended an Xtend Barre class, just to mix things up. The class is a fast-paced, 55 minute full body workout that fuses dance, Pilates and sculpting exercises at the ballet barre. It was intense! It is quite different to the mat class we normally take, it is much quicker, has music, and involves a lot more movement. But is was really really fun - and the class went fast! I would like to think that we look like the ladies below, but as there were not mirrors (thank God!) I will just assume that we do.
 


J and I signed up quick smart for next Monday night. Definitely a class to try!
