A couple years ago, Fitness Guinea Pig attended Jeanne Franks' (pictured above) Total Barre Pilates course at Total Pilates.


I'll try to refrain from more bar/barre jokes (but if you have a good one, please share it).

As I wrote in this morning's paper, barre exercise -- with "barre" referring to the handrail used in ballet practices -- is growing in popularity, and is often described as incorporating elements of ballet, Pilates, even yoga.

I attended a barre class with the fabulous Joy McGill recently -- specifically, Rebekah Tennis' first barre class at Saint John Siegfried Health Club. It was awesome, totally kicked my rear -- and I'd love to attend another one, masochistic as that just sounded.

With the story, I included a list of other places in town where you can take a barre class: Carbon, Sculpt Tulsa and Total Pilates.

But did I leave one out? If so, where is it?

And have you attended a barre class? What did you think?

Peace, love and raising the barre ... XOXO
