For those who don't know me, I am a long time yoga practitioner (and even taught for almost 15 years before health issues interfered with my comfort teaching) and sometime pilates students. Barre classes are kind of simple and dumb in comparison, but they are seriously fun, challenging and relaxing. Plus, it is the only low impact exercise I've found that both pushes me and doesn't break me. After a hard class, I feel like I've ridden 4 horses. It really targets a lot of the muscle groups we use in riding (legs, hip, entire core, shoulders/upper back).
