Move over Zumba, there's a dance-based workout craze in town. Here's how the Bar Method can help you burn fat and tone your major muscle groups.
If dancing your way to fitness sounds like more fun than logging hours on a treadmill or sweating through a Pilates class, consider a bar-based class, such as the Bar Method. A bar workout is a dance class that combines ballet moves with core conditioning, yoga, Pilates, and weight training, and lasts about an hour. Bar Method is simply the name of the original franchise that created and popularized the workout. In the past few years, the Bar Method and other forms of ballet-based fitness have experienced a surge of popularity, thanks to the workout’s ability to help exercisers shed pounds, sculpt their bodies without bulk, and gain more energy in a motivating group exercise class.
