Today was my first class and the trainer leading was Michelle!Upon walking in I was greeted in the most friendly and welcoming manner, she quickly showed me around and then it was game time! The workouts were intense and definitely pushed me. I absolutely loved Michelle’s training technique. She was very kind and encouraging. I would absolutely recommend you give this place a try. A true gem for the girls who support girls club! I absolutely look forward to more classes!Kristen

The instructors are great, but the process to pause/cancel your membership is terrible and the managers are UNHELPFUL. I was extremely frustrated to find out that I could sign up for a membership online yet I could not cancel online, cancel it though call, OR in person!!!! You can only cancel your membership through an email that they IGNORE. How convenient for them. AND if you are 5 minutes late to a class you cannot get in because they lock the door so the person at the front desk can work out too… the management of this place is absolutely horrid. DO NOT GET A MEMBERSHIP HERE.

the exercise and the instructors are nice but the management is really unfriendly. Really bad on customer relationships. I tried to cancel my membership within the foots month I started, meaning I don't want to continue the following month and they wouldn't let me. They said I signed a waiver accepting their policy on letting them know one month in advance if you want to cancel membership, and so they would be charging me for another month regardless if I will continue or not.The mentioned waiver was what I had electronically signed in my first (free-of-charge) trial class and I was told it was a health waiver. Didn't even know that I was getting locked in even if I wanted to cancel membership. I communicated this to their management but they insist on taking my money and not cancelling for another month.I made a completing to Better Business Bureau and they got back to me saying that the Business didn't not respond to their several attempts to communicate with them.This is the kind of business they are and it is really heartbreaking to see that this is a woman-owned business that is acting this shady. I tell all my women friends not to go to this place. Just wanted to let others know as well.

Just took my first class here, and loved it! Great variety of classes offered. I took Meagan's class, she is welcoming, offered modifications to accommodate different fitness levels/conditions, and is very professional. 10/10!

Barre Code is such a positive and uplifting place to find the strength within yourself. The best thing is that they offer you 3 free classes to try!! You will be glad you did?!
