An awesome florist and gift shop. There is so much to see and buy.
I love the Bar Method Richmond. They are my other family. We moved from Dallas, Texas 6 months ago and everyone at Bar has welcomed me with open arms. Bar is beyond the connection physically, it is also a spiritual connection. My body has been transformed, more flexibility and endurance than I could imagine. Love ❤️
Ive been taking classes at Bar Method Richmond for just over a year now and am still incredibly excited to go to class every time. The studio is absolutely beautiful with attention to detail in the little things from providing towels to use in class to the extra padding of the carpeted floors. The instructors each bring their own personalities to their classes and consistently deliver a quality workout focused on proper form and reaping the best benefits for you as an individual.
For years, I didn’t exercise at all. I didn’t prioritize my time for workouts and I didn’t enjoy working out.When I found barre, I immediately enjoyed every class. Because I loved the atmosphere, the people, and the workout, I found a way to fit it into my schedule and I’ve never looked back. The Bar Method was created with Physical Therapists and is effective, safe, and sustainable for all. I’m stronger, more toned, and happier than I have been in a long time!
The Bar Method Richmond is a 5 star boutique all the way. I joined recently after being referred by my sister, who couldnt stop raving about it. I have always been hesitant to join barre because I know Im the most flexible person in the world. This place has welcomed me with open arms, making me feel very comfortable and motivated in every single class. They are all incredibly personable and are truly dedicated to helping you improve and get the best work out possible. Not to mention, the studio is top notch, super nice, clean, warm and welcoming. After only taking 9 classes, I feel healthier and more fit than I ever have before. Special shout out to Nikki who runs the studio. Shes the best barre teacher out there and has been a huge reason why I keep coming back!
I am so glad I joined The Bar Method in September. The staff is always welcoming, caring and committed to guide you through safe exercises. Fun contests are regularly offered which has really motivated me to attend as much as I can.In four months, I already regained muscle strength and toning.I also appreciate the fact that the members and the staff are varied... Everyone belongs, is welcomed and fits.I always look forward to attend a class and hate when I have to miss one.Nine months later I still wake up each day ready to go to class. I feel stronger and healthy. I have the same feeling about the staff. I also enjoy seeing new instructors getting trained and being as enthusiastic about helping us as the rest of the staff.AND, it is fun... Life is too short to not having fun working out!I highly recommend this place.
The Bar Method is the best. All instructors are excellent and well-trained and make adjustments for all needs. They make sure that each student is using proper form. They really care that each student gets the most out of each class . The studio is clean and well equipped. I would not take bar anywhere else.
If you are struggling to find a fitness studio with a fun, welcoming atmosphere and a consistently challenging workout, look no further than The Bar Method - Richmond. I have been coming to the studio for almost a year now (after trying many other fitness and barre studios) and can honestly say that this is one of the best workouts you can get. The ever-changing classes keep it interesting and fun, and I feel so much stronger than I did before I started! Plus, as a mom-to-be, the instructors strive to make each class safe, yet effective. Most importantly, the staff and instructors made me feel like I was part of their family from day 1. To say that I recommend this studio for anyone looking for a new workout place would be an understatement!
From day 1 everyone was welcoming and friendly and made every effort to know my name and help me. I feel stronger than ever and love coming to class - and we work hard! But it’s very rewarding and I love the atmosphere and people!I have been taking classes at The Bar Method - Richmond for 18 months now and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a great workout in a healthy and happy environment. Any body shape and fitness level is welcome from beginner to advanced as this workout is for everyone! I am a runner and own a Peloton and this workout compliments those by adding much needed upper body strength toning. I am stronger than I was 20 years ago!!!
The bar method is my favorite workout ever! The instructors are the nicest people and they really know what they’re doing. Very professional and always makes sure you’re performing the move correctly. Love this place, my friends and I all go here so it’s even a social thing :)
I have been coming to Bar Method Richmond for almost two years now, and I will never go anywhere else! With a variety of different barre classes offered, Bar Method Richmond provides clients with the best and most effective workout. All of the instructions are thoroughly trained, always professional and friendly, and constantly ensure clients are getting the full benefit from each workout. LOVE this beautiful studio!
I love the Bar Method Richmond!! All of the instructors go above and beyond to greet everyone and make them feel welcome in the studio regardless of age, ability, goals, etc. All are welcome at Bar Method, and everyone can be sure they are going to get a good, but more importantly, safe barre workout. As owner, Nikki’s enthusiasm and love for what she does is evident from the second you step foot into the building. Without question, I give Bar Method Richmond a 5 our if 5 starts!!
I’ve been taking classes at The Bar Method Richmond for about a year and a half and am still amazed I found an exercise routine that I’ve stuck with for so long AND have thoroughly enjoyed. The classes are always different and challenging (keeping you on your toes, literally and figuratively!), the instructors are caring and knowledgeable, and the studio is clean and beautiful. I look forward to each and every class!
Amazing facility, teachers that have to undergo 6 months of training before they can teach class, and great community of women! Love the workout, always challenging but always doable. The best barre studio in the city!
I am a physical therapist and I place my stamp of approval on the Bar Method as my favorite place to workout. And I have been to EVERY barre studio in the greater Richmond area. Gyms, Barre Boutique, Pure Barre, Corner Barre, Hot Yoga Barre... lol, and this is by far the place I would recommend most. I love how they market themselves as SAFE and EFFECTIVE because that really is the best way to describe it. For the safe part- you can tell it is designed/consulted by therapists because they really teach you how to do exercises properly and make sure you are in proper alignment, etc. It is THE ONLY gym or studio class I have been to where I dont really have to modify exercises to make them safer. For the efficacy- It is super challenging/hard and I am by no means even close to being good at it yet, but I have gotten a lot stronger. I enjoy most the way they are able to really safely train/challenge your core with such a variety of exercises to really isolate certain muscles and keep you from cheating. It is expensive, but its honestly almost like therapy. If you workout here and stick with it, you wont need to go see a physical therapist ;)
I started taking classes here about 5 months ago after I finished physical therapy for a back injury. Ive been AMAZED at the results. My work-related aches and pains have melted away while I feel myself getting stronger with every class.I also LOVE the staff! They are always working to make sure you are getting the most out of every exercise while protecting your back and joints. It also helps that they are always looking for ways to mix things up and keep it fun. The positive and empowering atmosphere keeps me coming back every week!
I never thought I could love a workout as much as I love the Bar Method. Every time I leave the studio I am happier, more relaxed, and tired from a challenging workout. I cant put into words what this place means to me, so I encourage people to try it for themselves! If you try it you will be hooked instantly.
I could not be happier! Ive noticed a marked improvement in my fitness level, strength, and appearance. Im up to four days each week and look forward to my work outs. The staff are friendly and truly focused on helping me improve with every class. Im totally addicted!
Amazing instructors who each bring a little something different to class. Immaculate studio, and so many classes offered each day.These classes will transform your body and build strength to improve all your other activities. A great compliment to your cardio workouts.
Best barre studio in RVA! I have been to 7 different studios around Richmond and this one is by far my favorite. Challenging workouts, knowledgeable and motivating teachers, and beautiful studio. I highly recommend you give them a try!
Always a fantastic experience working out at The Bar Method! Excellent and gracious instructors, warm and encouraging environment, on-site child care for popular class times, beautiful space, adorable retail and buns of steel. What more could you want!?
The Bar Method is an fantastic fun family fitness experience. All of the teachers are experienced and I appreciate how they take the time to get to know each student to help them improve. The studio is gorgeous, clean, and the boutique has all the cute clothes and swag your heart desires. Come join us for some tuckong and shaking!
I signed up for the new client special, unlimited classes for 30 days at a low fixed price. I took 10 classes and I will be extending my membership. During this same period I have also been working out at Orangetheory 1-2 times a week. The two approaches are very different. For me, the hour long Bar Method class passes very quickly. I enjoy the constant change in activity and my required concentration lets me push out all other thought. This means my mind is getting a break at the same time my body is getting a workout. I have tried other barre classes at other studios in Richmond and I find this particular barre studio to be a step above the rest. True to the Bar Method advertising, every instructor is well educated in the method, constantly providing detailed verbal instruction and when appropriate, hands on adjustment, to ensure you are achieving the proper form. To me, this is critical and unique in order to ensure safety and maximize the benefit of the workout. What I have found particularly fascinating is the thoughtful construction of exercises that results in multiple muscle groups being intensely but not painfully exercised simultaneously. Amazing how much I have accomplished in each hour. I can certainly feel the difference in my strength and flexibility in the month. I can also see a visual change in muscle definition.Additionally, I will comment that each instructor has been welcoming and pleasant. Clients arrive early and there is a pleasant, friendly but not overly invasive or noisy atmosphere. I like the people. Though advertised as unisex, I have only seen women. Age range spans the full range of adulthood and the instruction truly modifies for all strengths and flexibility making this practical and safe for pregnant women and older women, and super challenging for the super fit and flexible, with many clients fitting all extremes.The facility is also lovely. The studios have a soft carpet, light walls, sturdy barres and helpful mirrors. The instructors turn on and off the ceiling fans and lights as appropriate to keep the studio comfortable. The waiting room is inviting, the bathrooms have a high end and clean appearance.
I love The Bar Method Richmond! It’s such an awesome community of strong, powerful women and every workout is challenging and fun. I always walk out of class feeling happier and healthier.
I love the barre method Richmond. Its a great workout and made some awesome new friends. Instructors are very professional and the facility is always clean
In recent years fitness has been something I didn’t bother with. I walked into the studio clueless and apprehensive about barre. I knew I needed to start working out, but I didn’t know I would find something so much more than just a workout. I was greeted and welcomed with a warm smile and reassured it would be challenging but enjoyable. The instructor stayed after class to help me and a few others work on proper form for a seat exercise. I was hooked! I purchased the new client special after class and made it my mission to keep showing up and giving it my all. You have to give it a chance because it can be confusing and intimidating at first, but with the guidance of the instructors and your commitment to show up regularly ready to tuck & shake... you will find your groove! Seriously, no other fitness class compares... it’s transformative--physically and mentally. I fatigue my muscles every single time and remain challenged. The instructors keep me on my toes, literally! I can honestly say The Bar Method is so much more than just a workout- it changed my life! Thank you!!!
Love Bar Method Richmond! The classes are hard but super fun! Studio is SO nice! I’m not in the best shape but the instructors always help me modify to my ability level. LOVE IT!
Barre is for everyone and for every body. Its been a consistent part of my life for 6 years, but its still intense and challenging. I love the Bar Method because the instructors undergo rigorous training and their expert knowledge shows in their choreography, cues, and adjustments. And the patented Bar Method equipment perfectly customizes the workout to fit you. All of this to say that the Bar Method is the safest and most effective workout for toning, flexibility, and balance.
The Bar Method is great! Melissa, Holly and Kathryn all know how to push you and give a great workout, even at 5:30 in the morning! All of the instructors are very knowledgeable and friendly and make working out fun!
So happy that I decided to try out Bar Method Richmond last fall! I absolutely love it, and I feel mentally and physically better after each class. Instructors are so knowledgeable and friendly!
I love this studio! The instructors and the owner, Nikki are so hands on to make sure the exercises are being done correctly. Nikki is very involved with the clients and classes. Everyone is so professional and I am amazed that they call everyone in each class by name. The routines are great and extremely challenging. I have actually noticed great changes in my body, not only strength but firming of my abds- which being in menopause I thought would never happen. I love my time in the studio. The RVA Bar Method studio is a true gem.
I love the Barre Method! I never used to work out and I went to a barre class on a whim and got hooked. The teachers are amazing - very patient but they also push you. I am so glad I found Barre Method!UPDATE: I’ve been going to this Bar Method location for over a year and a half and I still love it! They are always trying new, fun exercises and setting up fun challenges to encourage attendance. Thanks for everything, Bar Method!
I have attending Bar Method since September. I love it! The more I go the more I love it! I’m seeing and feeling changes in my 46 year old body and that and the fellowship make it all worth while! Thank you to all the instructors for your dedication to all of us! ❤️
As someone over a certain age I have been pleased to see how much I have benefited from The Bar Method classes. The instructors are usually very good about helping you to have the correct form for the various poses. I am stronger and have fewer general aches than before. So even when the class is full of Millennials, I still participate, and try to remember that I could be their mom so naturally they are mostly better at it than I.
I love all the instructors at the Bar Method! I always feel very encouraged in class and it is so nice how they all call you by name. I highly recommend this amazing workout!
The Bar Method is hands down all around the best workout Ive ever had. The teachers are fantastic and work with you to make sure you got all of your moves down correctly. Its a beautiful studio and has everything you need. Nikki and her team are all aces in my book!
The Bar Method studio in Richmond is my absolute favorite. Not only are the workouts always challenging (but still different enough each time to keep it interesting), the staff is beyond wonderful. The instructors are all upbeat and very helpful, and I always feel so welcome in the studio. Plus, they have some really great stuff in the boutique!
Impressive and challenging workout. Great for strength and posture and important for listening (fast) skills.
Fantastic bar classes. Very hard and really increase your strength.
I have been going to The Bar Method for the past year and have loved it! The instructors push you every class and I walk away knowing that I got a great workout. Having clean, caring, and consistent childcare is a huge perk to The Bar Method. I would highly recommend joining The Bar Method family.
Its been exactly a year since I visited BAR METHOD at The Village for the first time with a friend. I immediately was delighted by the comfortable thick carpeted studio and nice mats. It felt so nice to not be pounding on asphalt doing burpees or jumping rope on a wooden floor. I joined right away and made the staff aware of different physical ailments ( mostly bad knees) and from DAY 1 each of them is always on top of having all of us in the right position and posture to do all of the exercises without getting hurt. Sometimes its just a matter of an inch or two but it makes all the difference. I have seen the biggest difference in my body shape and tone. It never gets easier and is always challenging.Im hooked !
Bar Method RICHMOND is the best: Knowledgeable and friendly teachers, beautiful and clean studio, and a wonderful and welcoming community! Ive taken over 100 classes and the workout continues to challenge me every day! Thank you Nikki and team!
Hands down the best place to workout in RVA! All of the instructors are so encouraging and knowledgeable. As a nurse it’s really important to me to have instructors who are thoroughly trained in anatomy to make sure that I’m always safe while exercising. Thanks for challenging me each class and helping me “embrace the shake.”
Love this place! The classes are so challenging but time also flies. The instructors are amazing and are constantly helping us with our form in an encouraging way. The studio is beautiful. Also, there are more classes offered than at any other barre place in town.
The Bar Method is an incredible workout. The teachers are knowledgable and encouraging. The studio is beautiful! Ive been attending for nearly 2 years and still get sore after every workout. You never get bored and your body will change!
Nikki and team have created a friendly, welcoming environment where people of varying degrees of experience can all feel welcome. I joined Bar Method in the summer, having never before taken a barre class. The instructors positively encouraged me and offered me position modifications to ensure I completed each exercise in a safe way. They also celebrated my successes as I got stronger and more flexible, requiring fewer modifications as time went on. Class is always challenging but doable and classes have twenty year olds to sixty year olds in them- it really is a class that can be accommodated to any fitness level! In addition to the classes themselves, I love the sense of community Nikki and team have created - everyone is so nice and people stay back after class to chat and socialize. I highly recommend this studio if you are looking for a great workout without the pretentiousness that boutique studios can unfortunately often have.
I love it. The classes are hard, but fun and I feel great the rest of the day. They are pros!
During a recent visit to RVA I was able to take a class at Bar Method Richmond. I love the Bar Method. I am a Club Bar Member at Bar Method Arcadia-Phoenix. I love the fact where ever there is a Bar Method, dropping in for a class is like visiting family. Bar Method RVA is beautiful. The staff welcoming and friendly. The class was as I expected... challenging but fun. Thanks for making me feel right at home.
So thankful for the Bar Method and everyone there who has helped me evolve my workouts to doing more than just cardio! It didnt take long to see results and every class challenges me to work harder!
I love the Bar Method. It truly is a family. Everyone is so supportive of each other. If you are looking for a new place to workout; you should give Bar Method a try!
Great class this morning! Holly did an excellent job. Very motivating at 5:30 am.
I can’t say enough good things about this studio! I’ve been taking classes since the studio opened and the classes continue to challenge me. The instructors are all knowledgeable and friendly. They make me and my kids(yay for onsite childcare) feel welcome as soon we walk in the door.
This is super friendly, the instructors are really good at correcting and giving different exercises when injured. The only reason I gave four stars is because of the cost. I really enjoy the classes.
I absolutely LOVE The Bar Method! Its a gorgeous studio & the classes are so fun.The class times fit my schedule. The staff is so friendly and accommodating!!
I love the bar method! This is the best workout in richmond 💪🏻❤️
Great classes and instructors. Would definitely recommend.
I love this place. The sweet faces, encouraging words and willingness to work with everyone individually! They are the best!
Ive been coming to The Bar Method at The Village for about 6 months now. I love the location, the staff, and methodology behind the workouts. Totally recommend it!
Love bar method RVA! Great instructions and such an awesome workout!
The workout is tough but the instructors are so kind, positive, and attentive... perfect combination for building physical and mental strength.
I love the classes- its a great workout, and the instructors are knowledgeable and friendly!
Great studio - fabulous instructors, clean space, safe but challenging workout!
Very helpful staff, beautiful facility. They help to make me stronger every time.
So happy to be back with my Bar Method family! Love being challenged at every workout!
As someone who has always struggled to stick to exercise, I was nervous to start something new this past January. There is something really special about Barmethod that has kept me coming back five months later! The instructors are warm, inviting, and forgiving when I consistently did the same moves incorrectly in the beginning. They knew my name at my very first class, and make it a point to learn everyone’s name from the beginning. Over time, I am getting stronger and more confident. I feel like I have a healthy relationship with exercise for the first time in my life. Not to mention, Barmethod has taught me the correct way to exercise so that I do not injure myself-which has always been an issue for me. I have hip displaysia, which causes a lot of different issues in my body, and have noticed a huge difference from isolating and strengthening the muscles around my hips and core. I would highly recommend Barmethod!
Always a great workout, always a great overall experience - friendly, welcoming staff and really happy place to be!
Always an amazing workout. Thorough, safe, effective! ❤️❤️❤️
Love, love, love the Bar Method Richmond! Wonderful instructors and great total body workout!
My favorite Barre studio in Richmond! Great instructors, a serious emphasis on proper form, and childcare is offered too!
Nice to be there with new friends
