What People Say
As someone who has never exercised regularly, finding barre pretty much as soon as you opened Barreworks 11 years ago, was a huge breakthrough for me. I have become someone who loves to exercise and have really appreciated your fantastic teachers who have inspired me along the way. Livestream and zoom classes have kept me going during the last year when I’ve needed mental space away from work. Thank you for everything so far!
Having discovered barre through you many years ago, I have at times tried a few classes elsewhere. None were even close to the standard of Barreworks and I’m not ashamed to admit that I have bragged rather obnoxiously about the fact that I train with the best barre instructors in London, possibly the World!
I took my first barre class with you in the ballet school on Lonsdale Road 15 years ago. It's been brilliant to see what you’ve accomplished. Through various gym memberships, I’ve occasionally tried other barre classes - they were part of the membership fee so I thought I’d give them a go. No other class has ever come close to the excellence of Barreworks. Thank you for always making the classes fun and for encouraging us to go further than we thought possible in pursuit of the perfect peach!
