I love The Barre Code Cincinnati! The instructors are great and definitely help push you to do your best during class. It’s always a really great workout! I love that there are different class formats offered so you can change it up. The studio is clean and very cute too! It’s the perfect place to escape the real world for 50 minutes and focus only on your mind and body.

I’ve been a member since 2019. I’m not always a super *self-motivated* individual when it comes to working out, and was starting to think I’d never enjoy exercise as much as I did when I was in sports. Then a friend invited me to Barre Code and that changed. It’s competitive while inviting - I want to keep competing against my previous bests.Barre is something I can look forward to at lunchtime, especially because it’s so close to work for me.Instructors are excellent. I have my favorites, but there has never been a time when I didn’t feel like it was worth the money. I just moved to the Unlimited membership, actually! It’s been such a breath of fresh air for my days.

The barre code is my happy place in Cincinnati. The instructors are incredible, knowledgeable and professional. The facilities are clean and welcoming. The classes are energizing and difficult, and I’m in the best shape of my life since starting classes here 1.5 years ago. I’ve since moved from Cincinnati but still take their classes virtually. If you’re looking for a warm, positive workout community, look no further!

I hadn’t worked out in probably 5+ years when I walked in to the Barre Code upon an invite from a friend just to try it. Now here we are, 3 years and 550 classes later and I’m stronger and happier than I’ve ever been. Great instructors, multiple formats, an awesome community, and a place that brings out the best in people. There’s something for everyone, I love it here!

At the end of 2019 the hot yoga studio Id been going to closed, leaving me to find a new workout home. Id taken a class at the bar code a few months before, and from the first moment Id stepped in, I knew the energy was the same as the studio Id left: welcoming and encouraging, and empowering. All of the instructors are knowledgeable and will kick your butt in the best way. The community built here is something special, and Im grateful to be a part of it, even amidst the pandemic. Looking forward to rejoining with in-person classes (although the livestream ones have been fantastic).

The Barre Code in Cincinnati is a fabulous place to get a work out. I normally do yoga for fitness, so sometimes I find the faster-paced barre routines to be pretty challenging, but the instructors are all so helpful and supportive. I may not get all the moves exactly right, but by the end of class, I have had an awesome workout and had a blast along the way. Also, the studio space is always beautiful and very clean, so it’s a pleasure to be there!

I have nothing but great things to say about TBC! Ive been going since February 2021, when I was nursing a wrist surgery back to health. Even with my healing injury, I could participate and there were always variations I could do if I needed to. The instructors are so encouraging and there are always people at a variety of levels in the class so I never feel uncomfortable or out of place in my own abilities and limitations.I go about 4 or 5 times a week and usually take Barre and Brawl classes with Michelle, Liz, and Dana. Theyre all so wonderful and encouraging and bring their own unique energy to every class.Ive never liked working out before because I hadnt found the way that motivates me properly. The Barre code is 100% the workout format for me. Ive been able to push myself in ways I havent before, and have found myself becoming more flexible and toned, much stronger than before, and my posture has improved! I absolutely love coming here and, even though Im generally pretty shy, I still feel a sense of community and at home in the studio. The barre code is often a highlight of my day and I have never regretted attending a class.

This is the first time I have worked out consistently in my life! I usually hate it so much, but everyone here is incredibly welcoming. All of the instructors make an effort to get to know you right away and make you feel welcome. I have done other types of popular workout studios, but I always hate the competitive aspect. At The Barre Code, they are always encouraging and uplifting. They have a broad range of classes, the memberships are affordable, and have times that work for everyone- either in person or over livestream.

I just made my return to in-person classes at The Barre Code after 15 months away due to COVID. I did not realize how much I missed the lunch hour barre classes until I made it back.The studio is only a couple blocks from my office. It’s always clean. The instructors are always friendly, helpful, and on time, which feels especially important when you’re trying to squeeze in a class during lunch. The routines are challenging, and the instructors always offer modifications to make them harder or easier depending on your ability that day. And, there is never any shame in modifying or setting down your weights, which is really nice- especially when it’s been 15 months since you’ve done an in-person workout. Plus, the playlists are really good.Most importantly, Michelle, the owner, really cares about the studio’s clients. When I temporarily suspended my membership during my maternity leave, she gifted me a month of on-demand classes to do from home. When I was ready to re-activate the membership, she helped me figure out the best deal available at the time. When I saw her at my second class back in-studio, she asked about my work situation and my family, and it was obvious that not only did she remember where I worked and how many kids I have, but that she truly cares.It’s awesome to be back. The people there are great. If you’re looking for a convenient downtown studio to get a fun workout, I cannot recommend the Barre Code enough.

This is my absolute favorite fitness studio in Cincinnati. The staff is welcoming, the instructors are motivating and so energetic, and Michelle (the owner) makes it a point to get to know members on a personal level. I love the wide variety of class offerings from barre to brawl to bootcamp and strength. Their message really inspires me as theyre about gaining self positivity, confidence, and acceptance in yourself instead of focusing on losing weight. Mental health is emphasized as much as physical health which I think really makes them stand apart from other places I have been. I am so glad I found this community and encourage anyone looking for fitness to check out this studio.

Nothing but good things to say The Barre Code Cincinnati! After trying many different types of classes and workout routines, this is the first thing I’ve truly enjoyed and seen progress with. There are three different class styles- barre, brawl (cardio kickboxing), and strength training. Every class is a fun and challenging total body workout. The studio feels safe and clean, and the environment during class is incredibly motivating and supportive. I haven’t met an instructor I didn’t like, but try out classes with Dana and Liz for their energy, Allie for her humor, and Michelle for her passion- they are some of my faves!

I have been a Barre Code fan for several years now. I used to go to classes on my lunch break a few times per week, but during the pandemic I have been exclusively using the Livestream option. It’s great getting to work out with instructors from all over the country and there are multiple times and formats offered each day. Great workouts and wonderful people!

Started this class on a guest pass from my daughter. As an official senior citizen, I was skeptical that I would fit n in. But Barre Code welcomed me and I feel right at home. Feel better than I have in years!

The Barre Code has converted this adamant solo runner to a group class lover. I started with class pass and then decided to become a member- during the pandemic! With all the uncertainty at the beginning of the pandemic, having a virtual community to turn to definitely helped me mentally get through it. Now that I am going back to in-studio classes, I can confirm that no matter the medium, every instructor encourages and empowers you to push to your potential. I have truly left every class feeling stronger, happier and proud of what I can do.

Love love love the Barre Code. I couldnt find a workout that I liked and then I came to one of the sponsered nights and fell in love. I started with the Barre class and it is still my go to. All the instructors are super friendly, give you alternatives to exercises, and are encouraging.When I got comfortable, I joined a Brawl class and I love that even more than Barre. It is so much fun.They have a great studio with plent of locker space, a little beauty bar for after class, and absolutely wonderful people. I am so glad to be attending classes in person again.

I absolutely love The Barre Code! Michelle and all the instructors are so motivating, attentive, and positive – I’ve always felt self conscious in group fitness classes in the past but never at The Barre Code because of the welcoming, judgment-free atmosphere. The studio’s emphasis on connecting the mind and body to become stronger is incredibly empowering. Classes are challenging and fun with a rotating array of props and upbeat music – I highly recommend The Barre Code to anyone of any fitness level!

The Barre Code-Cincinnati is an amazing place. The community is both welcoming and empowering. All the instructors are so down to earth, helpful, and fun. And best of all, the variety of class formats and the continually changing routines keep the work-outs interesting and challenging! Ive been a member of this studio for about a year and a half, and its one of the best things I do for myself both physically and mentally. I cannot recommend this studio enough!

We had an amazing time today with the team at the Barre Code. Their studio is clean, highly organized, and includes many thoughtful touches (free lockers, changing areas, water-refill). As new guests, we were treated with a warm welcome and quick tour. The workout was intense (in the good way!) and our instructor was encouraging and made sure we understood the purpose behind each technique. Whether you are visiting or working in the area, this is a must stop to include in your workout routine!

I am obsessed with the Barre Code Cincinnati! They offer a variety of classes, not just a standard barre class like other studios in town. The instructors are amazing and definitely make each class challenging and fun! I love that Barre Code incorporates different props each week for class and that no class is the same week after week. I am so glad I found this studio and my workout family!

Barre Code Cincinnati is THE place to work out if you want knowledgeable instructors who motivate you to do your personal best. Michelle, the owner, is amazing and makes me smile every time I see her. Everyone is so friendly & welcoming. There is no pressure to do more than what you want for yourself. It’s all about what is good for you. I also love that I can pop in for a lunch class or on a weekend. So many class times to choose from. I think everyone should give it a try!

Highly recommend this studio! Im new to barre this was my first experience with this type of a workout. The price for membership here is the best around. You wont find anyone else that compares. On top of that? The workouts are SO MUCH FUN! Ive done the classic barre code workout with Alexa and Christi. Both have been challenging but they are so positive and push you to work harder. I leave with a smile on my face very time. The facilities are so clean and the changing area for customers is stocked with products to help refresh yourself after a workout. They also sell super cute barre/workout clothes on site. If you plan to do barre in Cincinnati...you have to go to the Barre Code.

Ive been a member for several months now, and Ive never been a member of any exercise place for longer than a month or two. I also have never loved working out, but finally came to terms with the need to do so. Love the variety of classes (theres the more moderately paced The Barre Code, the fast paced Brawl, and the HIIT Total Body Conditioning), the always welcoming staff and the amazing trainers, the smaller this is my studio feel. Also love that theres no set routine for any of the classes - the trainers are different depending on the day of the week, and they keep switching up their routines weekly. It never gets boring, and always provides sufficient challenge for me to keep coming back.

Review №59

I never thought I could love working out, but now, at 36, I finally do thanks to Barre Code Cincinnati. I feel stronger than I’ve ever felt, and that’s not just because of the classes – which are great in all three formats – it’s because of the supportive community there. The instructors keep me motivated to come back time after time, and to try my hardest in each class. Trying barre for the first time was a little intimidating and really tough, but now I can’t imagine my life without it! It’s made me more body-positive and changed my general outlook for the better, which sounds like a lot to ask from a fitness studio but it’s the truth. The location is great for anyone who lives or works downtown, and Michelle has planned lots of fun events around the city, too. Now officially one of my favorite places in the city!

You feel welcome the moment you walk through the door. Michelle, the owner, is bright, warm and incredibly kind. Her teaching style is easy to follow and makes you feel strong and great about your body. All of the instructors are amazing - Ive had class with every one and can attest to their infectious energy, amazing moves and encouraging style. Youll be hooked from the first class! The Barre Code sets itself apart by offering a variety of classes from regular barre to barre+cardio to cardio kick boxing and more. A variety of class and time offerings, coupled with excellent people and a beautiful space make for a studio that is second to none in Cincinnati. Hands down the best workout in town.

I have been so happy that The Barre Code opened up downtown. Its walking distance to my office and class times have added great variety. The studio recently doubled the number of instructors, which has been great. The class formats have a lot of variety: strength only, cardio mixture, heavy cardio. Every week there are new routines and each instructor does a different routine with many different props. So pleased that I even bought the year membership!I continue to be impressed. The formats continue to evolve and the classes continue to become even more challenging. I have made great friends through the class! I miss them when I dont go!

If you are looking for a low impact workout that lengthens and defines your muscles and feels more like 50 minutes of all about you time - The Barre Code Cincinnati is for you! I moved downtown 3 years ago and have been waiting for a great barre studio to open and it finally has! If you are like me, Im not into jumping around or feeling awkward with odd dance moves - but I want to see results of my hard work in a relatively short period of time. BARRE CODE DOES THAT! Small isometric movements leave your legs, thighs, butt and abs shaking like jello which is a good thing!! I am 53 years old and absolutely love this workout - and you will see all shapes and sizes in the class and it is never about comparing. Instead it is about leaving stronger and more confident than you walked in! The instructors are incredibly motivating and they are great about giving one-on-one instruction to make sure you are using the correct form to get the most out of your workout. The studio feels more like a spa when you walk in with beautiful aroma therapy, great workout clothes in the front to get a little retail therapy, and fantastic changing stations and lockers with the necessary amenities to freshen up immediately after class if you are off to work or a glass of wine with friends. Thank you Michelle Ziegler for bringing THE BARRE CODE to downtown Cincinnati!!! #ResolutionRemix2019 @barrecode_cincy
