Love this studio. I have an spinalCord injury and this is one of the only exercises I can do that gives me a tough workout, stretch and is fun. People are friendly here and it doesn’t have the snobbery of other Bar studiosLocally. They offer free towels, coffee and filtered water. I really appreciate that bc other studios charge for those items. Excellent customer service. I had an issue with a package of classes I bought and the owner helped me resolve it. One hour and a complete workout- that gives results!

Bar Method Long Beach is my favorite place to start my week, get extra energy. They offer a beautiful, clean studio with a lovely community of clients. All the instructors are well trained and they offer a variety of classes to get an awesome workout. I have been doing the Barre routine for over 3 years and I am still learning new things every class. The instructors keep you motivated as well as ensuring that you are keeping yourself safe during the workout. I was able to continue working out all throughout my pregnancy and Bar Method has helped get my body back in shape. They offer great perks like coffee & tea, water and showers to freshen up afterward. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun and challenging workout.

Feeling new and improved! I’ve been going to class for just over a year and always feel safe & challenged with great instructors leading class. Some of my favorite results are long/lean muscles, improved posture, mental strength and flexibility!! 😇

I have been doing bar for over two years @ LB Bar Method. Attending has helped to increase my flexibility, strength and endurance. I love the individual level of care and concern each teacher gives to modify/adjust stretches and exercises to meet my individual needs. It is unparalleled. Gaining mental clarity is critical for my stressful job and role as a care provider for my aging parents. The friendly staff are always welcoming, fostering a safe and inclusive environment for all.

Best workout ever. Lengthens, strengthens, and tones. The instructors are trained to help you with positioning and set ups in exercises. Based on physical therapy so you are not injuring yourself while working out. The owner Jo is the sweetest person ever. All of the staff are super nice and very helpful.

I was hooked or barred at first class!! It’s been a year of self discovery and victory despite major personal hurdles. This is an amazing group of compassionate women that cheer you on and motivate you to your personal best. For one hour you bond with other amazing people (there are males that visit and are welcome too). The workouts are challenging enough to push you no matter how long you attend. The routines are fresh and challenging for all levels.The instructors take the time to get to know your strengths and weaknesses and help you to achieve your goals.Treat yourself to an hour a day and your mind and body will thank you!!

I am a huge fan of Bar Method Long Beach. The workout is killer and super effective, but the studio itself is the real treasure. It is a very welcoming, positive, and happy environment. The amenities are great - ample free parking, towel service, filtered water, a spa-like locker room. Highly recommend.

The class is so fun. You can make it as Intense as you like yet there are stretches throughout. I’m always sore in places that get no use in my body from other activities. I also cherish the culture of the studio- so welcoming and feminine.

Highly recommend this place - I was thoroughly impressed by the amenities, friendly staff, and cleanliness of the whole studio! They have a locker room with keys and showers fully stocked with towels. I also like how the flooring of the actual studio is carpet, because you wont worry about slipping! The classes are challenging. The instructors/staff are very supportive and kind.

I love it here! The atmosphere is friendly and inviting. The studio is beautifully kept. The instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful, correcting me and helping me to do each excersise correctly. Ive been coming here for about 6 months now and it has completely changed my lifestyle! Im not exaggerating when I say that no other workout has even come close to giving me the results I get here.

This is the best barre studio I’ve ever been to! I’ve been going to The Bar Method for a few years now and am so happy with the results. I feel lean and toned and most importantly, so much stronger! The owner, instructors and staff are so kind, personable and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is so positive and supportive and the community of women who frequent this place are the best around.

I took the Bar Method one-hour class for a month and could see the difference in my body. The bar exercises target specific groups of muscles which are reshaped and strengthened. These exercises are perfect for those who want to sculpt their body. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly, and the one-hour class passes by fast. After class, there is camaraderie among the club members and the staff. In addition to showers and all bath amenities, the studio offers towels, tea and coffee. It was an enjoyable month and money well spent.

I love Bar Method Long Beach! The instructors are knowledgeable, approachable, fun and friendly. Their attention to form and posture ensure this old dancer bod doesnt get hurt but challenges it enough to produce some really satisfying results.Ive experienced a lot of studio vibes and BMLB is by far one of the most welcoming and friendly studios. The only competition that goes on is with yourself, and thats really refreshing. I love coming to class and feeling like family! ❤️

I like that you are 5 minutes away from my home. I like the schedule. I like the workout (the small precise movements that coincide with the music). I like incredibly professional, knowledgeable friendly instructors. I like that the room is air conditioned, clean and upbeat. I like the other students and I like that the time flies by. But most of all I like the results Ive achieved by working out there.

I cant say enough good things about Bar Method Long Beach! I have never worked out consistently in my life until I found the Bar Method. I have rheumatoid arthritis so my joints cant take very high impact activities. For this reason, the Bar Methods small, isometric movements are perfect for me. Not only am I much stronger, my posture has improved and my overall flexibility has also improved. All of the teachers are amazing, positive and super friendly. They not only make sure youre doing the positions correctly but they also make sure youre having fun at the same time. Ive turned friends in other cities on to this workout and I know I am now a life long bar addict!

Three years ago I walked into the bar method in Long Beach, and I have absolutely loved it every day since. I love my improved strength. I love that I am challenged each and every class. I love the wonderful friendships I have made over the years. I love the instructors, and I love my new and improved body. :)

I love BMLB! The front desk and instructors are amazing, helpful, and attentive. The classes start on time and all the instructors (and front desk) make an effort to know the student names, which is a nice touch.If youre new to Bar Method, be sure to arrive at least 15 minutes early to prep and get to know the space. Be sure to bring a pair of socks and have fun!

I must admit, I was intimidated at first - no one else seemed as inflexible or anti-lean as I was. But I, seeing how awesome my friend looked after 2 months at the Bar, was determined to see what it can do for my 40 year old body. In 2 weeks every muscle I didn’t know existed ached and I was hooked. And, from day 1, the bartender and instructors were so welcoming, and I did not feel out of place at all! Now at 3 months I keep seeing positive changes in my body and this is something I really want to continue for myself. The studio is always very clean, staff pleasant, plenty of parking, and appointments easy to make.

Deciding to go Bar Method Long Beach is the best thing I have done for myself in years. The teachers are amazing!! They are super helpful and motivating. A full body workout in one hour cant be beat!! I recommend it to all my friends.

I am very pleased with my decision to try Bar Method. It remains challenging and fun, even after a year. I always feel really great after class. Most importantly, though,the specialized attention to technique, sincerely fun teachers, and outstanding staff set this studio apart from other programs.

I LOVE BAR METHOD!! I cant think of a better way to start my day. This workout has kept me fit for the past 4 years and I have no intention of stopping. Im addicted, the instructors and friends Ive met keep me motivated but most of all, my body misses it when I dont go.

I consider myself to be thin and in good shape (56, 115) - I was a dancer and I work out everyday and do both cardio and strength training. I have been unmotivated by my workouts so thought I would try the bar method especially since they have a great deal of unlimited classes for $100 for new members. I am so impressed. I have taken 3 classes and already see and feel a difference in my body. I am sore all over - but in a good way so that I know I am challenging my muscles in ways I obviously was not previously. The physical change that I am most surprised by is how lean my thighs look and how firm my tush is - after only 3 classes! Even better, there is no impact. I have many injuries from dance (back, knees, feet) and dont feel stress on them when I do the workout. The absolute best part is the staff. They are so friendly and welcoming - and always knows my name. The instructors are wonderful. In class, they are so motivating and their instructions regarding what each muscle in my body should be doing makes me more aware of those muscles and pushes me beyond what I think I can do. And their focus is helping the students, giving us guidance and coming around to fix our posture or positioning. They are not doing the class for their workout but walk you through it to intensify yours. The studio is clean, they provide water, showers, free lockers and towels. This review may seem too positive but I am a real client not an employee =).***It is now years later and I love it even more. I dont get bored I class even after so many years. I am still challenged by the classes. The staff are friendly, the instructors are inspiring, the other clients are friendly. I look forward to going every time. I am so glad I found this workout at this location. Hope to see you in class!

I started The Bar Method over a year and a half ago with the goal of getting in (lean) shape before my wedding that was in early 2016 & I think its safe to say that I am obsessed with the kick-your-butt classes, the polished studio, the friendly people...everything! My body changed quickly, and continues to do so, with every passing week that I attend classes. The instructors - or BARtenders ;) - are always thinking of new studio-wide challenges for us members to bear down & PUSH ourselves. From things like BINGO month, to PUSH month, & other challenges throughout the year, the optional opportunities to get yourself involved and to class are available & plentiful. These studio-wide challenges give me the PUSH I need to jumpstart my body out of rut, or just get back on the health & wellness train. The amenities provided in the studio are perfect for someone like myself who does better with an early AM workout and then needs to get ready & head to work shortly thereafter. I highly recommend this type of workout for anyone who is looking to change up their routine, or even add to it. You will become hooked & your body will not regret it!

BMLB is simply amazing. The studio is super friendly and welcoming. First clients receives lavender epsom salt goodie to help relax muscles and loosen stiff joints after an intense workout. Dont be alarm! Instructors are highly precise in techniques and barre instructions are crystal clear. If you want a perky bum, youll definitely walk away with one after this workout!

Justine is a great instructor--she encourages students and helps us to reach our full fitness potential without causing injury. There is an amazing sense of comraderie amongst the students, and, above all, the changing/locker facilities are immaculent and well-stocked with supplies.

Even after all these years, I still cant get over how wonderful The Bar Method is. I have visited other locations, but Long Beach Bar Method is my usual studio and I love it so much. The positive energy and genuine smiles are undeniable. All the instructors truly care about encouraging and challenging their clients. Its no wonder that I never stopped coming since I started in 2015. I love the owner Jo, as well as all the other instructors: Tereza, Allison, Katelyn, Angela, Danni, Stacie, Mason, Aprilyn and Geanna!

Ive been coming to Bar Method Long Beach for almost 2 years, and I love it! Bar method is a wonderful low impact exercise that has helped me lose inches off my stomach and arms. The teachers at BMLB are super fun and nice. I love the new Bar Move classes which are higher intensity cardio and get my heart rate up like sprinting does. I highly recommend BMLB.
