When used for promoting general fitness, barre exercises may incorporate
a wide variety of activities to increase stamina, flexibility and
strength, including ballet movements that require balance and stimulate
the core such as pliΓ©s and pirouettes. Barre classes have become a
popularized form of exercise. A barre class includes the use of the
barre as a tool for repetitions of small, pulsing movements with
emphasis on form, alignment and core engagement. Devices such as yoga
straps, exercise balls and hand weights are sometimes used during barre
classes. Barre classes draw from yoga as well as dance and pilates and
focus on breath and the mind-body connection.
