The Bar Method Honolulu

I haven't worked my body out in about 5 years. My balance has been off and my strength has lowered. I have been in for three classes, and I must say how warm and welcoming everyone is. I was a bit nervous to be judged, but this studio is the absolute opposite judgemental. I am sore, but I am ready for my next class. Thank you for being patient and kind to everyone.

Love The Bar Method Honolulu! The staff and instructors are all SO friendly and accommodating. They made sure to orient me and set me up with someone next to me I could follow for my first class. They gave gentle adjustments and encouragement throughout the class and sent me home with a cute gift after my first class. The New Client Special is an awesome deal, especially if you're not sure about barre. It's not the kind of work out I'm used to, like HIIT or boot camp, where you are dripping in sweat and feel like dying after. Instead it's small, intentional, controlled movements that work your muscles SO MUCH more than you'd expect. It really takes mental fortitude to not quit when your legs are shaking mid class . You will definitely feel the burn during class and the soreness of building muscles a day or two later! The studio is clean and tidy, equipped with all you'd need: Shoe cubby, lockers, bathroom, water, props, straps and weights. You can purchase grippy Barre socks in many sizes and colors if you want, and the esthetic of the studio is super cute

To be brief, inconsistent policies and practices. For instance, during Homecoming weekend we were told the challenge started on Sunday, but not Saturday. (Sunday had a waitlist. Saturday did not). I even overheard a complaint about different starting times on Sundays. Apparently some Sunday classes start a half hour later than the ones on Saturday. I signed up for the unlimited pass, but if I wanted to take three classes in one day, I would be charged 29 dollars. Personally I wouldnt want to take three classes in one day, but why would someone with an unlimited class pass be charged? There are more inconsistencies, but Im keeping it brief. My fellow students are great and encouraging. The instructors are great. This is one of the older or veteran studios, so new clients could feel left out, but the instructors really go out of their way to be helpful. I shouldnt feel a sense of anxiety or be worried over inconsistent policies and practices while Im trying to stay holistically fit. That defeats the purpose. Caution: you cannot park in certain spots. I get that Bar Method people are most likely to be fit. However, some people do have injuries and still want to take classes. Being upstairs and having restrictive parking can be a turn off for some potential clients.
