The Bar Method technique draws from the principles of isometrics, dance conditioning, interval training, and physical therapy to create an hour long, ballet-barre based class. The result is a noticeable "Bar Method" sculpted body, featuring firm elongated muscles, reduced body fat, high muscle definition in the chest, improved posture, long narrow thighs, a lifted seat and defined hamstrings, strong flat abdominals, increased stamina and energy, and extended youthfulness.
