Barre3 Los Altos is a fantastic community that promotes wellness inside and out. It's a refuge in good times and bad that promotes functional movement and overall health, more about how you feel than how you look. Honestly, it's helped me listen to my body more which is a rare and priceless thing in a workout class. So thankful for this studio!

I called them and cancelled my subscription a few months ago when they were switching systems and they confirmed over the phone that they cancelled it. I was reviewing my credit card charge history and noticed that they've still been charging my card for the last few months.

I'll have to call them again but the fact they don't allow me to cancel over the web is crazy. The classes were good when I was taking them, but being told that my subscription was cancelled and then continuing to charge me feels predatory.

I’m highly disappointed with the 5 minute late policy. I’ve always been on time and I called in advance to let them know I hit an unexpected 10 minute roadwork, stop sign, completely out of my control. They did not have compassion to my situation when I explained I drove 40 minute from my work and I’d arrive 1-2 minutes after their policy time. They would not let me in due to “safety of others.” So if someone shows up 5 minutes late and enters, they don’t jeopardize others safety but if it’s 6 minutes… Let’s just say, I don’t plan on returning. Barre 3 in Menlo park is much more welcoming and understanding.

I have never loved working out, but have finally found motivation in coming to barre3. Every day with barre, I feel stronger, more flexible, more capable and connected to my body. The workouts are approachable for those beginning their fitness journey with more advanced classes for those looking to add something new to their routine. Classes are available early morning, after breakfast, lunchtime, before dinner, and after work. If you are interested in barre, then I highly recommend trying!

Great location, and a really good place for a low/moderate intensity exercise.

The only downside is the class can get really full and it can get difficult to move around freely and feel a bit cramped on a busy day.

They do not have parking available. Studio is good if you are just going to walk to it. It will take more then 10 mins to actually find parking. It was my first time there and they still did not let me in class because I was late even though they never mentioned about parking issues. I will stick to the bar method studios where they are actually welcome and understanding!

I haven't worked out my body this well in years! Loved my first free class so much, I signed up for a membership. I come pretty often, because of how fun and fulfilling the classes are. The instructors are so kind as well. My favorite is the strength class! Be prepared to be sore after your first class. I've only been going a little over a week now and have already noticed some amazing results. Can't wait to endure my fitness journey with BARRE3!

The studio is cute and teachers are nice. But one thing I don’t like about this place is they have a very strict late policy. As a working mom my life is very hectic and unpredictable, so it’s not a good fit for me.

I love this studio! I’ve taken five classes with five different instructors and have enjoyed every class. The instructors offer many modifications and do a great job reminding students that modifications are not “worse” but rather just different options. The instructors are motivating whilst simultaneously being very kind and knowledgeable. You should definitely give this studio a chance… the workouts are challenging and fun! Thank you Barre3!

She provides variety and encouragement in her classes and also

I went to Barre3 in Los Altos for the first time a couple of months ago and have since become a member. I have felt very welcome from day 1 and have never felt out of place even though I haven’t really worked out in years. In addition to every class being a great workout, Alene and her team of instructors have created a wonderfully positive and uplifting community.

Decided to leave a review since I just finished my 25th class at Barre3. There are many reasons why Barre3 was a great boutique studio for my situation. They are located near a major intersection close to my home and next to a Whole Foods. All the instructors are all super nice and encouraging. They constantly remind you how you can modify the exercise to suit your fitness level. I most frequently attend classes taught by Emily and Audrey given my work schedule - they are both great! The establishment also runs community clubs/events and offers childcare during your class. Many of their classes get full, so show up early for a good spot at the barre.

I have really been enjoying my experience with barre3 Los Altos. When covid was rearing its head, in a time when I wasn't sure if I could start exercising any time soon, I really felt safe in the studio due to what Alene and the barre3 staff implemented. I also really appreciate that all the instructors are helpful with making adjustments depending on our individual circumstances and levels. Overall it shows that they are intentional about cultivating an inclusive atmosphere, and I am so grateful to have discovered my love for barre through barre3 Los Altos.

One day over seven years ago, I walked into barre3 Los Altos looking for a new exercise experience. I found more than an exercise studio; I found a new exercise home. That was 1850 classes ago, and I could not be more satisfied.
Barre3 Los Altos is a warm, caring community with knowledgeable instructors who help modify movements and postures to meet individual needs during each class. I frequently adjust my calendar to ensure I can attend the maximum number of weekly classes. Even when recovering from surgeries, the Barre3 staff offered accommodations for the movements so I could attend classes.
Barre3 is at the core of my overall health and self-care routine. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a rigorous but fun workout.

Barre3 got me through the pandemic. Livestream classes and outdoor park sessions helped me stay fit and social. Now back in the studio most days a week and I feel like a part of the welcoming Barre3 family. The instructors provide fresh and challenging classes and the studio is always spotless. I’ve referred several friends and won’t hesitate to share the experience with more.

I joined Barre3 Los Altos the day it opened and it continues to motivate and elevate me in a way that I never thought possible with exercise. The community that Barre3 Los Altos has created is incredible and even after 8 years, I continue to be challenged and awed. The classes don’t feel like exercise- but 250 calories later and that “good sore” in the glutes/quads - it kind of makes you want to come back again and again!

Even though there is another studio that is closer to me, I choose this studio in Los Altos because of the feeling I get when I walk in the door- these are my people! I am welcomed, my children have a blast in the play lounge, and it truly is a workout that I look forward to ( who looks forward to exercise?!)!

This community with B3 Los Altos was my safe haven as a brand new parent; with my infant in tow, it was one of the only places I felt comfortable and welcomed during one of life’s hardest transitions.

Thank you Alene and team! Forever grateful for this space and for this amazing community.

I love this Barre studio so much. I have been going here for many years and it's like the gym equivalent of my home away from home.

Some things I especially appreciate about Barre3 Los Altos:

1) Community: there is a genuine community here and even though I cannot partake in everyone I appreciate the camaraderie amongst the staff, members and class takers.

2) Childcare: I have a 3 year old and he and I go together to Barre3 on Saturday mornings. It's the best. The childcare staff are attentive and kind. They sometimes even create fun activities for the kids.

3) Livestream option: As a member I have livestream as an option. I love this for 6:15 AM workouts in my living room!

I encourage you to check out the studio for yourself!

The instructors are clearly all seasoned and focus on correct posture and alignment. Additionally, the environment is about listening to your body and giving yourself space. I've been in all types of fitness, from 40 weeks pregnant to 3 months postpartum, at this studio and always felt supported and safe.

Everyone is so welcoming! As soon as you enter Barre, you are welcomed with a smile and big hello. The instructors are well trained, friendly, and knowledgeable. It’s a full body workout! I love that I can train with weights, stretch, do bit of cardio and lots of core work in each class. The facilities are clean and bright. I feel happy when I enter and feel happy when I leave.

Taking class is always something I look forward to. I am incredibly grateful to have found this barre3 studio in the Bay Area after moving away from another barre3 studio out of state. The transition was seamless and felt both familiar (the same amazing workout) and fresh (a new, equally wonderful studio team and community) at the same time. I've been a member at barre3 Los Altos for half a year now and I am so happy to have found this new home.

Barre3 Los Altos has been such a positive addition to my exercise routine. As a physical therapist, I was so pleased to learn that what is being taught at barre3 is very much in line with some core principles of physical therapy. The classes incorporate functional movements, balance training for fall prevention, and core strengthening/engagement for back injury prevention. I would definitely recommend this kind of exercise for long term health benefits. All of the instructors I have had since joining barre3 (Alene, Emily, Audrey, Jackie, and Jennie) are very knowledgeable, engaging and friendly. I like how you can tailor the classes to meet your fitness/comfort level and variations are always provided. Another big benefit is that they offer childcare and I can take my little one with me. The play lounge and front desk staff are wonderful.

We never bring aesthetics or competitive comparisons into the room, just you and your body's inner wisdom at the forefront.

I tried all different types of exercise classes through ClassPass. As soon as I tried Barre3, I was hooked and for the first time in years, I bought a membership. It provides a full body work-out that is different every time, so I have not gotten bored even 4 years later. After the second class, I saw increased body tone. The mind-body connection is strong in this work-out, and I often find myself working through stress and emotions during the practice. I've tried other Barre classes and Barre3 is my favorite by far; they have really mastered the natural arc of exercise through warm up, gradually increasing the intensity, strength training, cool down, breathwork, then stretch. People of all ages and body types can benefit from it and I recommend it to everyone! Alene is also a gem and really makes you feel like you are part of a close community from day 1!

Super grateful that Barre3 has been a constant throughout - I've been able to keep up not only with exercise, but also preserving that dedicated time and place to focus on myself. Hugely recommend!

I joined Barre3 Los Altos in October 2016 and my life was forever changed! This studio has been my community, my place of peace and my inspiration for the last few years. Everyone is so friendly, the instructors are motivational and encouraging, and the workouts are for everyone. I love that I can show up exactly how I am that day and know that there is a place for me. Barre3 focuses on the mind-body connection, while still getting a great workout which is especially great for the fast moving professional! I love the Barre3 Los Altos studio because the community is very welcoming and the studio itself is extremely clean and well maintained. I have been working out with Barre3 Los Altos all throughout the pandemic and have felt my safety has been prioritized the entire time. I also do a lot of workouts online, which is great for days that I work from home. Alene & the Barre3 LA team, you are magical! Thank you for all that you do for our community- it means the world to me and so many of us!

Have you ever felt intimidated by exercise, or by the other people exercising around you who seem to be pros and somehow make you feel inadequate? This is NOT that place! This is a come-as-you-are environment staffed with a warm and welcoming crew of instructors who will guide you, encourage you, and bring out your best. The music is motivating, the moves are all modifiable (“make it your own”), the energy is authentic, and the studio is clean and safe. Towels and bottled water available for purchase, free filling station for your own water bottle, cute retail, child care in the play lounge - they think of everything. Easy parking in the underground lot below the complex (turn in the driveway immediately past Coupa Cafe). I have taken classes with every single instructor since the studio opened and truly feel like a part of the wonderful community. Support a local woman-owned business and come try Barre3 Los Altos!

I was visiting the Los Altos area and as what I almost always do when traveling I explore the local fitness businesses. Barre3 has been one of my favorite, if not favorite, franchises. As such, I took advantage of their 2 week trial for new clients. It's hard for me to say anything negative about Barre3 because it's truly an amazing workout with an excellent balance of cardio and muscle toning. Similar to the other Barre3 studios I have been to, this Los Altos location has a friendly staff, very helpful instructors who checks you throughout the class whether its to make minor corrections to your form or just to see how you're doing. The workouts consist of pretty standard Barre3 movements though they dedicate ~10 minutes to breathing exercises at the end (I do think this is a new trend in Barre3 and not unique to this studio but it's one of the first places I have seen it incorporated). If it matters to you, there's also a great selection of retail.

I am giving this studio 4 stars because of cleanliness and space. In other Barre3 studios, I am comfortable walking around with my shoes off as soon as I enter; the floors including those in the bathrooms are spotlessly clean. I did not feel this way in Los Altos. The tiles in the bathrooms were sticky and people walked in and out with their shoes still on. One of the bathrooms is also relatively small and neither has a shower stall. The flooring of studio isn't the traditional wood you may expect but the type of material you may find at a hot yoga studio which naturally felt dirty to me because dirt and sweat gets embedded in there. If it matters to you, their filtered water taste like tap so I always bring my own.

Overall, it was a great experience and would recommend it if you're in the area.
