What the studio practices
Barre is the practice this studio is built around, and most of the classes fall within it. The sessions use the barre for support while the work moves through slow, precise repetitions that build strength in the legs, seat and core. Pilates stick and core and pelvic floor classes sit alongside it, along with the strength-focused Xtend Suspend and Xtend Xpress formats.
Classes usually run an hour, though the shorter Xpress sessions last 45 minutes and suit a lunch break or a tight morning.
How the week runs
Mornings carry most of the week. More than half of the classes start before noon, and about a third begin before 9am, with the busiest start times at 8:20am and 9:30am. Evening starts at 4:30pm and 5:45pm are the next most common, while the midday hours are empty. Tuesday, Thursday and Monday hold the most classes.
The facilitators who lead the most classes are Mercedes Dobbertin, Sarah Sharifi, Lora Banner, Sara Peelle and Lauren Gibbons, and the team is small enough that regulars tend to see the same faces.
