  I’ve been a member of Newcastle Pure Barre since March 2024. I’ve never stuck to any exercise program and frankly I was hesitant to try another group exercise class. However I’m happy to report that due to the amazing teachers and the community of other members I’ve consistently been going and I’ve now taken almost 140 classes and I feel stronger and more flexible. A special shout out to Michelle, who brings her in depth background of dance instruction and her lively personality to every class. Although I’d love to gate keep her awesomeness, I think the cat is out of the bag. Michelle makes every class she teaches challenging, fun and inviting. I’m so grateful for the Pure Barre Newcastle community and for having such an exceptional teacher/coach!

  I went to try a class at several studios with the hope that I would enjoy Pure Barre and want to start incorporating it into my routine. I used to be much more physically active but since Covid it has been a struggle to stay consistent. In any case my fitness level is not what it used to be and I am also battling several injuries (neck, shoulder, wrists). I found the studio in Newcastle to be nice and clean and the people that work there including the owner are very nice and welcoming. I thought i was ok to sign up and give it a try but realized that the type of movements and activity isn't a good fit for my fitness level and really aggravated my neck and shoulder injury from a car accident. This has nothing to do with the workout and everything to do with my body trying to heal from the injury and having a hard time doing so. This was disappointing because I really enjoyed the workouts and the people at this studio. They also do have a lot of modifications that can be done so please do not let this review deter you from giving it a try even if your fitness level is not high. My circumstances are unique. When I reached out to talk to them about not continuing they were understanding and helped me get everything resolved. I would like to try Pure Barre again in the future once I am further along in my healing journey and because of how amazing they are I will definitely be going back to the New Castle studio. I highly recommend giving their studio a try.

  Such a great addition to our neighborhood! The instructors are sooo great. I LOVE Caroline and hopes she stays forever! Sheila and Jessie are so great too! Sad Tam has to take a break. I’ve finally found something that really works for me. I feel so much stronger and better.

  I really enjoy taking classes here. Friendly front staff as well as great instructors. I feel like they take the time to get to know you, answer any questions that you may have, provide feedback as well as offer modifications during class if needed. They've added the Align and Empower class, both are definitely a great addition to the schedule. Looking forward to getting stronger from taking classes here!
