Meet me at the barre

Today I went on a little road trip for my FWOM workout. All the way to sunny Nottingham to check out the free "Meet me at the barre" barrecore workout at the Sweaty Betty store.

First of all, Sweaty Betty is one of my favourite ever sportswear brands. When I arrived I instantly saw about 5 things I wanted to buy on the spot:

Everything in the store is carefully designed with super soft fabrics and cute feminine details :)

When it came to the actual workout I was a little nervous. Unsurprisingly, it was an all girls group which was good but 18 people had turned up instead of the maximum of 13 and we did the class in the store which isn't huge, so it was a little cramped and uncomfortable at times.

The barrecore was a combination of yoga movements and stretches with pilates/ ballet elements mixed in.

I think I enjoyed the yoga poses the most, which made me want to take a straight yoga class!
These were my favourite poses:

Dancer

Eagle

King Pigeon

If you fancy trying a barrecore class they have provided an online virtual workout on the Sweaty Betty website


I specially bought some resistance bands in store as I left so that I could try out the virtual class at home :)
