This place is well run, and a good mix of teachers. The manager, Makenzie Shepherd, really makes an effort to assist the Bar Method MDR community. I hope upper management can recognize this location's efforts in some way. The teachers are kind too. Clean space, and everyone is inclusive. Thanks again Makenzie and all the teachers!

The Bar Method is challenging and relaxing all at the same time - the nice long stretches feel so good and well deserved!
I started going back to this studio this year to heal my body. All the instructors are great at cultivating a space to love and support each other through this journey. Definitely would recommend this place.

I tried bar method a little over a year ago when I was looking for something different in my workout routine. Needless to say, I love it! The instructors are amazing and they're really there to help you get better in class. I actually enjoy going to workout and feel accomplished after every class.

The Bar Method Marina Del Rey is my favorite exercise studio in Los Angeles. I have been a client for over 10 years. It is a very intense work out after all these years. I love all the instructors. The studio offers a safe workout space and an incredible sense of community.

I LOVE the bar method!!! After working out for so many years consisting of strength training and cardio, I became super bored and lost my motivation to exercise. With the bar method, I look forward to my next workout because of the positive energy all the instructors have as well as the workout itself! So glad I tried them out!

Many years ago I had a health crisis which among other things really affected my balance. I started coming to The Bar Method hoping to regain some flexibility and strength. Much to my surprise my legs and overall body became stronger very quickly, and this greatly improved my balance issues. I'm a huge fan of this method, and of Makenzie(new studio owner) & her staff, all of whom are professional and absolutely wonderful.

Iβve been going here for almost 2 years now and these are the reasons why I love it:
1. Iβm surrounded by amazingly strong women (occasionally some men too π) including the wonderful and knowledgeable instructors.
2. Itβs mentally and physically challenging. I attend class 4-5 times a week and it kicks me in the butt every time but I always walk out of there feeling accomplished and more confident.
3. Increases my flexibility and strength. After starting bar class I no longer have lower back pain and my calf muscle spasms are completely gone. Iβm an avid swimmer and the increase in flexibility and strength has helped me perform better in the water.
4. Facility is clean, free parking , and staff are so friendly

I have been coming here for nearly 10 years. Still a consistently safe, effective, full-body workout with many of the benefits of private training. Although I get Silver Sneakers memberships and classes for free, Bar Method is kept very clean and unlike the gyms Iβve gone to, I have never caught any type of infection. Thereβs also free parking. Worth trying!

Great workout with a nice variety of classes to choose from including Bar Express, Bar Move, Bar Advanced and Bar Method. Since there are a variety of different exercises as well within each class, it keeps things interesting and challenges my muscles. All the teachers are great at this studio and very well trained.

I've been coming to the MDR location for 6 years! The Bar Method has helped me shed pounds, improve my posture, and improve my flexiblity. The instructors are very welcoming and I love the camaraderie here. Thereβs also challenges mixed in throughout the year to spice up your routine. If you've been thinking about taking a class, don't hesitate! Schedule your first class now. Free parking in the underground garage.

Been faithfully coming here a few years after I had my twins, and they're 11 now. It's the perfect workout for me, not too vigorous but very challenging every time and with the many different variations, the routines never get boring and it doesn't get easier. At least in my case : ) The teachers and staff are awesome too, very friendly and yet professional. In short, I love Bar!!

This Bar Method location is great (granted, I've only been to class at this location)! The instructors are all nice, approachable, encouraging and willing to talk after class about improving your technique. The facility is clean, and the bathrooms (there are 2) are always stocked with tampons, mouthwash, and deodorant spray. The mats that we use are also always clean-smelling and fresh. Parking is usually not a problem as well. There are parking spots in the underground parking structure (I've only had issues with parking a handful of times, but people leave all the time, so you eventually find parking) - which is unheard of in LA!

I β€οΈ this place! I found Bar Method MDR in December when I was looking for something new to supplement my other workout activities. The team here (from the front desk, to the instructors to the others in the class) are wonderful. They are supportive, hands on (literally!), and how they remember everyoneβs name so naturally in a busy class is beyond me!! For someone whoβs always shied away from anything that involved flexibility and stretching, I have grown to love it- and Iβve become more flexible. Who knew! This hour is just for me, and I leave feeling totally refreshed. Tonight I took my friend for the first time and she felt the same. Keep it up guys, and thank you!!

Signing up for classes at The Bar Method Marina Del Rey was the best fitness decision I've ever made! I started with the 30-day trial and fell in love. Everyone was so welcoming and very helpful in getting me set up with a membership. It really is a no judgement zone, where the instructors actually care enough to take the time out to adjust your positioning in order to get the best workout! I've already noticed a difference in my body in just 4 months.

Bar Method MDR is a beautiful studio with great instructors and a very effective workout. I love the pace of the classes and feel stronger and have seen real results in my strength and fitness after only a few short months. The instructors and owner are all very welcoming and the studio is conveniently located with ample parking in the garage below. I love to start my day with a Bar Method Class and leave feeling energized and ready to start my day, or to stop in for an express workout during my lunch break. There are a good variety of classes and class times to fit everyoneβs schedule.

Absolutely love this cute studio in Marina del Rey! Iβve taken two classes here with Heather and sheβs such a fun, engaging and knowledgeable instructor. These classes will challenge your musclesβ potential and youβll feel the physics effects for days, but in a good way :)
Thereβs a water fountain, free coffee and cubbies to store your belongings. Located right across from the Costco with lots of free underground parking.

Staff and instructor are friendly, and the space is clean and simple. Parking is chill. The workout was great! I felt welcome, seen, and consistent form correction! I was comfortable being the only guy in class out. Looking forward to seeing the differences than my years doing classical and contemporary reformer pilates. I'm real real sore, entire body and booty sore.

Friendly atmosphere and staff. Very well trained and enthusiastic staff, love how personable the instructors are, there attention to the students also when helping correct your form, and that they address you by name. Love the layout of the studio, very spacious, lots of room for personal space and to spread out. Cleanliness of the locker area and bathrooms are great too! Love the free parking which helps make going to classes in the city a lot easier.

I've been going to Bar Method for years and now can't imagine not going to classes. In the past, I've run, done yoga, pilates, etc. but I really feel this is overall the most complete workout since it combines cardio, weights and flexibility. When I leave I always feel better and if I've been travelling for several weeks, I really look forward to returning to the classes. The teachers are excellent and very well trained and the facilities are clean and attractive.

I just started coming to The Bar Method and am loving it! The workout is really intense and fun! I always think I am about to just drop but the instructors give really good feedback and the music keeps you going until it's time to stretch. I always feel intimidated at gyms but not here. Everyone is struggling together and feeling good together. I'm hooked. :)

Bar Method is the best! I've been going for a few years now, and I can't imagine not bar method in my life. I've been to four LA studios (West Hollywood, Marina Del Rey, Brentwood, and West LA), and they are all great. Everyone is super friendly, and the classes are wonderful every time. The instructors are more than happy to correct your form and help you modify if you have any injuries, etc., and they are all great. I highly recommend giving Bar Method a shot - it's life-changing!
