After not exercising for 7 years, I found this amazing studio. The workout is challenging and fulfilling, and the hour goes by so fast! The teachers are extremely educated, and they push you to do your best. My overall energy and strength have increased in just the few months that Ive been going to classes. There are several studios near my home, but I actually drive 30 minutes north to this location because it feels like family.

I wish 6 stars was an option as I positively LOVE everything about this studio. The instructors are fabulous- well trained, supportive, and motivating. The workouts are tough but fun and somehow, as my fitness and strength improves, the workouts become even more challenging. I joined the studio just about a year ago after 18 years of no regular workout routine and started seeing results after about 3 weeks - it was pretty amazing! Bar Method is the first workout I have ever truly enjoyed and want to stick with. Thank you to Marin and the whole Plano team!

Ive been a student at Bar Method Plano for 3 years and I wholeheartedly believe it is the best workout in town! I highly recommend this workout for any skill level. All of the instructors are highly skilled, helpful and caring in their approach to teaching us each move so that we are doing it correctly. They make each and every class challenging and fun! The front desk staff is very friendly and always make you feel so welcome every time you walk through the front door. Its my happy place!

I cannot say enough good things about The Bar Method Plano location. The owner and staff are incredible. The have all been so friendly and welcoming. The instructors are well trained and take such great care of each student. The workout is incredible challenging and every class is different. I signed up for unlimited classes and I attend class everyday. I LOVE it! The facility is top notch and so clean. Do yourself a favor and come take a class, you will not regret it!

Absolutely love this place! The instructors really take the time to make sure our form is on point, and that makes all the difference. I tried a barre class at another establishment this week, and it was NOTHING like Bar Method. The instructor didn’t correct anybody during the whole class. I looked around and everyone had terrible form. Why even bother paying for a class if you’re not going to get the best results?!?! Seems silly to me. So Bar Method is where you’ll find me!

I love, love, love this work out. Its unique and will totally change your body from top to bottom. Friends tell me my posture is better. Thats the value of strengthening your core - and my jeans are fitting nicer too - not bad! Great caring staff with hands on instruction to make sure your are doing each exercise correctly. The students are friendly and supportive. I really look forward to going!

My life changed a little more than 6 years ago when Bar Method Plano opened. Growing up as a dancer, when I got older I found going to the gym to be boring and enjoyed attending the classes better. Then I found Bar Method and knew that I had found the workout for me. It is a full body workout that focuses on core strength, improving flexibility, and toning. I love that the workouts never get easy and that you are always able to personally challenge yourself. I always feel I have gotten a full body workout after each class! I am also have asthma and love that I can get a full body workout without having to catch my breath or grab my inhaler. Thanks to Bar Method I have been able to regain some of my flexibility from my youth, as well as, overall increased strength and body toning. Also, Marin and the rest of the staff at Bar Method Plano are the best I have seen, when you walk in they greet you by name and are giving each person personalized help with improving form or praise when they see a person try a new challenge or achieve something they have been working on. The staff cares individually about every person in every class and is always happy to answer any questions. I look forward to seeing their smiling, caring faces each time I come to class! Thanks Bar Method Plano for changing my life for the better and allowing me to find the perfect full body workout for me!

Awesome environment, great classes. I studied physical therapy and I’ve never experienced a full body intense work out at a gym with so much care for your health like The Bar Method. The teachers really studied anatomy and can correct you to the right position so you won’t harm yourself during exercise. Very impressive! Definitely worth to try!

I started at Bar Method because a good friend of mine bought me a gift card to try a class... that was over two years ago. I never thought Bar Method would be an exercise I would stick with since I was never a dancer and I am the least flexible person. I have really come to enjoy and appreciate all that Bar Method offers. My flexibility, albeit still limited due to years of running has improved immensely. The stiffness I always felt after a long run is gone. EVERYONE at the Bar Method is incredibly patience and encouraging. I am thankful for all of the correcting and time they take to make sure everyone gets the most out of each class. I would definitely recommend giving it a try. You may be as pleasantly surprised as I was.

I have been going here for about three weeks. I was extremely worried going in. I am not a small girl and i am trying to lose weight with this. I thought these classes would make me feel extremely body conscious. But they dont these has been a great experience and i feel myself getting stronger and stronger with their help, I have seen in the three weeks i have been going tighter muscles and more strength. I love going and will continue. I highly recommend everyone go. The instructors are so helpful and make sure you are doing all of the moves/exercises properly to prevent injury and help you get the best workout. So in words of the instructors Embrace the Shake, i know i have and love it!

The classes, teachers, and atmosphere is wonderful! They are very good at offering modifications on each exercise to protect your back and neck! I have taken 9 classes so far and get a little better each time! I am hoping I can stick with this as I feel that it is exactly what I need to build long lean muscles...and looking around the room I can see that it works

Simply the best! Owner Marin and her super talented team have created a welcoming workout studio with kick a** classes and a first class experience.I love going to bar method! Everyone knows your name and you’ll get a challenging workout that will have you sweating and shaking. If your form isn’t quite right, they take the time to correct it to ensure you get maximum benefits with no risk of injury.I’ve been going to bar method in Plano for years and I always leave feeling glad that I came! They’re always adding new class formats and even the classes I’ve taken many, many times are never the same class twice and they are ALWAYS challenging.

The Bar Method workout is by far the best type of exercise I have ever experienced. I love that I get an intense and thorough workout while never feeling “beaten up” or like I have done something to injure my body. I am personally challenged every class despite the fact that I have been taking classes for well over a year. In addition to being an excellent full body workout, the one hour classes are fun and upbeat!The owner, instructors and staff at The Bar Method of Plano bring professionalism, expertise, diligence, passion and thoughtfulness to their classes and their work.Physically and mentally, I have never in my life felt better or stronger. Bar Method classes motivate me to be more intentional in all areas of my life.As an added bonus, The Bar Method of Plano attracts a warm and supportive group of clients which makes the environment and energy of the studio unique and inviting.Bar Method classes are a great investment in me!

The bar method is the best thing I have done for myself. It is such a great way to exercise and transform your body, but also all the teachers are really nice and they are very good at correcting you to make sure that all exercises are done right to protect you from being hurt. I love the environment and friendliness of the staff.

I love The Bar Method in Plano! It has such a warm and supportive atmosphere. As soon as I walk in the door I can feel my stress melt away. The workouts focus on toning, core strength, and flexibility which keep me engaged. It only took a couple of workouts to start to see changes in my body. The best part is that after a workout I have so much more energy and Ive also noticed that I sleep better on class days.

I love Bar Method Plano, and can not say enough great things about the classes and the instructors. I find the atmosphere at the studio fun, friendly and supportive. I have been taking classes for over three years, and they remain challenging and have not become routine. I look forward to attending every class I can schedule and have never felt better.

I absolutely love The Bar Method! While I dont go regularly, when I do, I feel so much better. You can see results within the first couple of classes; you sit taller, you can feel your muscles being active and clothes fit better. Its a fantastic strength-based workout that I cannot recommend highly enough. Ill definitely be signing up for classes regularly this fall!

I LOVE The bar method Plano. EVERYONE who works there is super helpful and nice. It had been a long time since I worked out but it didnt matter, they are very encouraging and helpful with modified positions to keep you going. Even the other women who work out here are super encouraging. Its the kindest and most challenging workout place Ive ever been to.

Quite simply, I LOVE BAR METHOD PLANO! It is the best fitness method I have ever done and I have done many through the years (kick boxing, step aerobics, gym, personal trainer etc.) and was never as fit, flexible and lean as I am now even when I was a fitness instructor years ago. I am physically strong and the mental strength and focus I also achieved is extraordinary and so critical to overall wellbeing. Having gone through an incredibly difficult situation the last few years, I can say without a doubt that The Bar Method Plano “community” of instructors and fellow bar-movers/friends were instrumental in my healing. The “community” is an added benefit to the bar method workout. Owner Marin and all the instructors at The Bar Method Plano are highly trained and passionate about teaching and go above and beyond to make sure each person feels welcome and inspired to achieve their fitness goals and best self ~ mind, body and spirit. In addition to the instructors, I have developed life-long friendships with so many wonderful people that I have met the last 3 ½ years at bar method. I consider the entire experience as a gift. Give yourself a physical and spiritual gift and join us at The Bar Method Plano…..YOU are worth it and will LOVE it, I am certain!!!

I have never been consistent with my exercise regiment and do not consider myself an athletic person. The Bar Method is the first exercise routine that I have felt good about doing. The consistent routine with various levels of challenge, works beautifully for me. The amazing teachers with different teaching styles keep me motivated to challenge myself to become a stronger me. Try The Bar Method, you will not be disappointed!

Love this studio - so Im posting my review from another site here as well. :)Any workout studio is only as good as the heart and expertise behind it. The Bar Method is unparalleled in the barre fitness world because of the teachers and their extensive training. They make a group fitness class personalized to each student by their attention to form. Ive taken Bar Method for 4 years and my visits to Plano have been wonderful! Great teachers, beautiful and clean facility and challenging, sweaty classes! Ive taken Bar Method in Orlando, San Diego and Dallas. Plano is yet another great Bar Method studio and if youre looking to truly change your body for the long haul, Bar Method is where its at. Jump in, go 4-5x/week and youll see changes and more changes physically and mentally. It doesnt get easier - you just get better after each and every class.

After a career of teaching (30 years) Fitness classes and as a Personal Trainer I founda class to take that I love. The Bar Method is an amazing total body workout that sculpts and tones and works you to that degree that you feel the muscles working so deeply in every class. It constantly challenges. I take 4-5 classes per week and loveevery class!

This workout is never boring, produces great results, and is surprisingly addictive. Even better - this studio is amazing! Every single instructor runs a challenging class that pushes you to perform at your highest level. They are friendly and fun, but they also do a great job of making sure your form is correct so you get the most out of your workout. I love Bar Method Plano!

Best work out and best results I have ever seen in terms of sculpting muscle and improved flexibility. Instructors are open to feedback, warm, and inclusive. Their whole body/mind approach to life, not just exercise resonates throughout their classes. Love the kindness found at @barmethodplano.

The Bar has truly changed my life!! Before I found the bar, I was suffering from back pain due to multiple bulging discs due to degeneration. I was told by my Orthopedist that the only thing to do was strengthen my core ro make my back stronger. Since I have started taking classes at Bar Method almost 2 years ago, I have rarely experienced back pain any more. My back feels great, my core is so much stronger then when I started. As a bonus, I also lost some weight and inches. Bar Method will continue to be a part of my life.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! They have an incredible Groupon deal going on right now. Today was my first time going, the location was very easy to find very clean and is beautifully designed. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. When I first walked in, Kristin greeted me at the desk, helped me check in and asked me if I had any limitations or injuries that the instructor needed to know about. I told her that I was recovering from a back injury. The instructor, Kristianne, approached me right away, introduced herself and told me she would be supporting me throughout the class and guiding me to make sure that I was comfortable and didn’t exacerbate my back pain. The class was awesome! It was an excellent workout that focused on each muscle group. Even the other students were very friendly. The culture they’ve developed at this location is very genuine and supportive. During class, the instructor would come by and adjust my arms, hips, tell me to dip down an inch lower or raise my leg just a little higher, etc. The feedback was so helpful. I will definitely be coming back well beyond what my Groupon limits me to. Their professionalism and kindness has made me a customer for life! Highly recommend!

If you are seeking to create a change in your body (firm and tighten or strengthen and define) then, The Bar Method is right for you. Workouts will challenge all learners and are unique in that they are intense to the individual- meaning the exercises can be tailored (novice -> overachiever) to what your body can do. Dont hesitate to try these classes. If you truly want success, the Bar Method instructors will help you achieve your goals. Classes are predominately female filled, and as I mentioned above, they are guided by extremely skilled instructors. I often feel as if I have my own personal trainer, despite being in a class of many. Hint: for those that want to experience class before considering a commitment, look for promotional opportunities through Groupon, the Mindbody Fitness App or visit The Bar Method- Planos website directly. :) :) :)
