2. Barre Class in North Hollywood: Sculpt & Lengthen

Barre has taken LA by storm, and for good reason! These classes, often found in chic studios across LA County, combine elements of ballet, yoga, and pilates to sculpt long, lean muscles and improve flexibility. It’s challenging yet low-impact, perfect for a focused burn.

The Vibe: Controlled movements, high repetitions, serious shake and burn. What to Wear: You’ll want comfortable, form-fitting attire that allows for a full range of motion without getting in the way. Love 4 Essentials Pick: Rory Ribbed Set offer the perfect combination of flexibility and support. The ribbed texture adds a touch of sophistication, ensuring you feel as good as you look while holding that plié.
