I dropped into a class yesterday with Jana and she was amazing! I love the mix between core and balancing poses. The class was rejuvenating and I can't wait to be back for more!

I’ve really been enjoying taking classes here for the last 5 months. The classes are challenging, and I love to feel muscles I haven’t felt in years feeling sore. The 30 minute classes are a go to for my busy schedule, but I also really enjoy the longer classes too. I did feel a little lost the first two months, but you tend to catch on the more you go and start to pick up on cues easier. I really appreciate when the instructors correct my form, and I’d like to give a shout out to Aliyah and Stefie, who are my favorite instructors. They always encourage and help.
The pricing on the classes is really affordable, and I recommend getting a membership with them. It’s hard at first, but it feels so good and empowering the more you go!

I went to pure barre to try out their studio tonight and I have nothing but positive things to say about not only the facility, but the staff. I’m a person who is extremely out of shape and decided when I saw an ad on instagram for them to try them out. Towards the end of the class I decided to leave due to personal reasons, nothing to do with the class its self or the people. I was extremely embarrassed because like I said I am currently extremely out of shape and haven’t attempted to do any type of physical work outs in years. Not only was the staff very reassuring and understanding, but just very kind and genuine. It truthfully meant the world to me considering I already was having a hard bad day due to work. Those people are the sweetest caring souls and that’s rare these days. The studio was spotless and very organized, the instructor was extremely knowledgeable and welcoming, and the receptionist was an Angel. just overall a wonderful place.

I am 24 weeks pregnant, and I have to admit that attending Purebarre classes has become a challenge. However, the instructors have given me a lot of advice on new postures that I can do in class and have made me feel strong and empowered. For me, there is no better place in Gainesville to work out your body and mind.
2022: Purebarre is very difficult.
That's right, Purebarre is very difficult to quit, it's basically an addiction. It is true that at the beginning it takes your body a little time to get used to the routines but once your mind and body are in connection with the different classes you can attend, Purebarre becomes irreplaceable.
My advice to those starting this journey is to be patient and listen to your body. Every day you will realize how the routines become easier to follow and how some movements that you thought you would never be able to do are suddenly being done. Remember: " No Retreat, No Surrender ".
2021: Pure Barre Gainsville has changed my life! I love all the instructors and the workouts that change up over time. I enjoy the ongoing challenge of each class. This studio is more than a place; it's a community of amazing people that always show you the best part of them.

Pure Barre is such a great addition to any other workouts you may do. I never stretch or do the types of moves we do in barre and it makes a huge difference! All the instructors are super sweet and helpful. I always leave feeling sore but refreshed!

I started PBG 2 1/2 Months after my C-section and going from 140lbs to 250lbs and from a size 4 to a solid size 20. I am now stuck at 180lbs but
LIFT.TONE.BURNED my way back into a size 12 AND FIT INTO MOST OF MY CLOTHES AGAIN. Pure Barre has strengthened & healed my body, mind, heart and soul and continues to every class. I think we also have the most genuine hype-women instructors that make you want to continue going and feel GOOD.

Not only is Pure Barre an amazingly effective workout, but the people at Pure Barre Gainesville are seriously top notch. This community is unlike any other and has made Gainesville feel like a true home for me. I love seeing everyone's smiling faces in the studio, and all of the instructors are super motivating. No matter what type of day I am having, I know that I will leave PBG in the best mood. I feel so lucky to lift, tone, & burn with all these wonderful people!

Most effective workout for the total body! Pure Barre has increased my strength, boosted my endurance and improved my balance. I like having the option of the 3 different classes...Classic, Empower and Reform...which complement each other and provide a variety of strength, cardio and resistance training. In addition to an amazing workout for any age, the owners, management and staff have created an atmosphere that is welcoming and fun. They are very friendly, attentive, helpful, energetic and encouraging. I am so thankful for Pure Barre Gainesville, the benefits I get for my mind and body and the friends I’ve made. It’s what keeps me coming back year after year! Love this place!

This is the one in Gainesville FL.They say this class is for everyone any age .I asked about that when I came in . Yes ,its for any level they said.It definitely is not true .I signed up for March.There were no alternative moves shown for if you were a beginner.I injured my Achilles tendon in the second class. Was unable to return to class. I kept hoping it would heal .They charged me knowing I could not take class. I went in and told them when I saw the charge post. I paid for 1st month even though I could not go.
I was told they could put it on hold. I said I think its pretty obvious I wont be able to take this class.. This was April 2nd. It had been over 2 1/2 weeks since I'd been back. I'm still not better. Do Not give these people your BC or CC. I"m not saying class isn't good for the right client. With the right teacher. I'm saying they are disrespectful of clients, .and a money hungry business. To charge someone whom is injured in their class and is still in pain. It is effecting every part of my daily life. Just walking even, I'am .going to Orthopedic surgeon today. See what she says about it . I might have to call a lawyer too. She said I can not continue the class no impact on left heel. For possibly anywhere from 3 to 6 months. You think this would be enough to return money for the month I never attended class . Charge for services never rendered is fraudulent practice. Especially considering I paid for the first month and only attended one class. when I spoke with them they didn't even care. they just said no returns. very rude about it to. Uncaring ,rude, disrespectful owner.

I joined Pure Barre after seeing an ad showing a video of an older woman super fit teaching a class. I'm older and my background is in ballet and jazz so barre and floor routines are part of my language. Well, if you're looking for experienced instructors and professional workout techniques, forget about this place. I not only did not see anyone above 30 teaching there but also the instructors do not seem to have a clue about how to transition from one exercise to the next making a very disjointed workout experience. They do not workout with you and they will not correct anyone's postures. They just walk around being pretty, telling people what to do and praising individuals by their names to make them feel good even if what they are doing is lame. Not so different from watching a YouTube routine and following it at home paying nothing.
Then I wanted to cancel my membership but I had an emergency and had to travel to a remote area with very poor Internet connection. I was able to cancel just past midnight and was charged a whole month because I was a couple of hours past the deadline. Thank you for nothing Pure Barre!
Although I already communicated to them that I have no interest in coming back they continue to harass me with texts and emails which I unsubscribed several times. What the heck? I am NOT coming back.
Two stars for the effort of one instructor who actually engaged with the attendees but unfortunately left that same day. No wonder why...

The teacher at gainesville pure barre make this the BEST place to be apart of. I look forward to each class despite who is teaching. The personality of each teacher is pure, radiant, and encouraging. I feel constantly uplifted after my classes no matter how I feel coming in. Pure barre has helped me get a great hard workout every time even though I didn’t think my body was able to. The low impact is so beneficial to my post baby/ past injury body. I am able to strengthen and burn 400-700 calories per class. They make it fun each month with different themes and challenges. I have even ventured into the other classes they regularly have available that focus on cardio or muscle toning which I also can do though I didn’t think I would be able to. The modified workouts still burn and tone what they need and allow me to participate throughout the class despite my current limitations. Pure barre has brought exercise back into my life and I am forever grateful for that.

Great place! If you're looking to tone, lift, sculpt and or loose weight, this is the place for you. Pure Barre consists of various classes that are low impact and high intensity. If you're a beginner, you'll start off with the Foundations Class. Your first class is free and you can sign up via Facebook, Instagram or Walk in. Get your active wear and grip socks, which are also sold on the studio and sign up. You won't regret it.

I adore Pure Barre - both the workouts and this particular studio. The workouts are challenging and never boring; there's something for all fitness levels, and while there's somewhat of a steep learning curve starting out, esp if you don't have a dance/ballet background, you begin to see changes in your body just a few classes in. It also never gets easy, as you can always hold your leg higher and straighter, squat lower, etc.
The instructors are incredible at what they do. They're encouraging and motivate you throughout the workout and (pre-Covid) were good about adjusting your form if you needed it. I was especially impressed with how management has handled and continue to handle the COVID-19 situation. The flexibility offered and the continued dedication of the teachers and staff just validated my decision to continues my membership for as long as I'm able and living locally.

I never thought in a million years I would become addicted to going to a workout class, but here we are! The 4 different classes offered are an amazing workout and suitable for all levels. Once I started going consistently (2-4x/week) I noticed an immediate change in my strength and flexibility. The instructors are also all absolutely amazing and I feel right at home in the studio! Everyone at Gainesville Pure Barre feels like family!

They start you with a deal and then continue to charge you $149 long after you cancel your membership. Not worth the hassle.

UPDATE 12/29/2019: This location is under new management, and they are awesome! The instructors are great, and it's an incredible workout. I would highly recommend!
Original review: Excellent workout. HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION. I have had a few instances over the past year where I have had to contact the office for issues with my account, and every single time I end up having to send about 5 emails and some voicemails to get a response. Sometimes after that, the issues are still not resolved. The worst communication I've ever encountered with a company like this. It's unbelievable.
Great workout though which is why I dealt with it for so long. The instructors are all awesome.

I purchased the Groupon 3 months prior to my wedding to get into shape. It was a great deal! Great environment, friendly staff, and awesome workout. Once that month was completed, I was offered a first month deal, $99 for the first month. I NEVER signed a contract. I was told it was a first month only deal. Once that was complete, I went to another gym, due to a month membership costing me $150.
On my next credit card statement, I noted that I was being charged a monthly membership of $149, that I never signed up for. After contacting the location 4 times via phone, I spoke to a young lady who said she would bring this to the owner's attention and will cancel the membership (which I never signed up for).
Fast forwarding to my next month credit card statement release, I was yet again charged another monthly membership fee of $149 (which I never signed up for...). After calling the location AGAIN 4 times and leaving multiple voicemails, nobody returned my call. I got to the point where I was calling the location about once a week and leaving a voicemail each time.
Close to my next credit card statement, I finally got ahold of Erica. At this point, I had another pending membership charge (so a third charge for a membership that I never signed up for). She stated that she will bring this up to owner's attention, she will cancel the membership (again, never signed up for a membership), and she stated that I signed a contract the when I signed the safety liability paperwork... She also informed me that they rarely check messages and the best way to contact the owner is via email...
Coming to a conclusion, after about 12 phone calls, 8 voicemails, and 5 emails later, I have been charged 3 times for membership I never signed up for...
**Yes, this is Great place to work-out. The work-out was one of the best work-outs I have had, BUT horrrrriibbbllle management!!!!
Just please beware and proceed with caution, ESPECIALLY when you sign your safety liability paperwork.
