barre3

10/09/2026

Alignment is a return to your truths, and October is the space to come back to yourself.

Barre3 is a practice of getting quiet enough to hear what’s already true: in your body and your mind. This month, in class and beyond, ask yourself:

What do you need right now?
What do you actually want, underneath everyone else’s expectations?
What would it feel like in your body to finally act on those answers?

This month is your invitation to move through these questions, both in class and out in the world. It’s an opportunity to notice what your body already knows, and to let one small, honest choice today be the first step back to yourself.

This Sunday, October 11, we’re coming together as a community for a special day of donation-based classes in support of METAvivor Research & Support and Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

Every movement matters, and so does every dollar. Did you know that while almost all breast cancer deaths are caused by stage IV metastasis, only around 13% of research funds go toward studying metastatic disease? METAvivor is changing that narrative by putting 100% of every public donation directly into life-saving research grants.

All classes on Sunday are 100% free to register, and we’ll have QR codes ready in-studio so you can give whatever amount feels right to you. Here’s how it works:

📱 Book your spot for free: Reserve your free class on our barre3 Studio app or website.

🧡 Donate in-studio: Scan the QR code when you arrive for class.

🫶 Get rewarded: Show your donation confirmation to our front desk team to receive a free class credit to use on your next visit (or gift to a friend who needs some barre3 love!).

Bring your energy, bring a friend, and let’s move with intent, strength, and love for a cause that impacts so many. We can’t wait to sweat and give back alongside you!

Kelly celebrated 1,000 classes! A huge milestone that makes our hearts so happy. Kelly, your joy and dedication is inspiring🧡. Read on for Kelly’s barre3 journey⬇️

“My journey at barre3 started over 8 years ago. I was coming out of the fog of having babies/toddlers/little LITTLE kids and was not only wanting to move my body more, but to also to have something that was mine. A space for myself. A space to challenge my body physically. And a space for my mind to settle and hopefully provide a short break from the chaos and stress of life.

What I found at barre3 Edina was all of that and so much more…the community is truly unmatched. You feel it the second you walk into the lobby- everyone is so welcoming and genuinely wants you to walk out of the studio feeling better than when you arrived. You just feel like you belong at barre3. You leave feeling stronger and most likely in a much better mood than when you arrived. The past couple of years I have shifted to morning workouts (shout out fellow 545 AMer’s!) and the difference in my day after starting the morning at barre3 is obvious.

I am so thankful for barre3- my favorite lesson I have learned is how important it is to show up for myself so I can show up for others outside of the studio. You have my heart barre3!”

500 classes for Yedda! Her genuine love & care for our community is so uplifting✨ Yedda, we are super inspired by your dedication to becoming stronger and taking care of yourself! Read on for Yedda’s heartfelt words about barre3 and her journey⬇️

“Since college, I was a runner. I completed the Twin Cities Marathon at ages 35, 40 and 45 and many half-marathons and 5Ks along the way. I also played tennis in a women’s daytime league for many years. After needing a hip replacement 11 years ago, my running “career” was halted.

I have known Darcy (barre3 instructor) since she was an intern right out of college. In 2023, she was completing instructor certification at as I was preparing to retire. After asking her what barre3 was all about, I decided to try one of her classes (where I would feel less self-conscious). I started with a class pack, switched to monthly membership and the rest is history.

During these past 3 years I paused my membership during meniscus surgery, a tonsillectomy, and a home remodel but returned as soon as I was able. Last June I was informed I needed a total knee replacement, so I set a goal to reach 500 before surgery… I have attained 500 - one month early!

This studio embraced me from the beginning, I have made many friends of all ages, which, as a loner by nature, I was concerned might be a challenge post-retirement. The sense of community, numerous and
evolving variety of workouts, and nonjudgmental culture have made barre3 my happy place. This practice is integral to my daily routine, keeping my mind and body at their best.”

B3 isn’t a workout to change who you are. It’s a practice to support the life you live.

The goal has never been to just "get through" class. In every workout, our instructors cue you to stay present through physical challenge—teaching you that you can stay grounded and resilient through healthy discomfort.

And those benefits don't end when your workout does. We practice fitness so we can show up fully for the moments that matter most.

Here’s the why behind our practice:

Strength Training: We build functional muscle and postural alignment so you can lift your kids, pets, and heavy luggage with ease. It’s about building a body that feels capable every single day.

Cardio: We use low-impact, form-first cardio to boost your stamina without the burnout. By training your heart rate to rise and settle with control, you build sustained energy to power through your day—no mid-afternoon slump required.

Mindfulness: By learning to tune into your body’s wisdom on the mat, you build the skill to self-regulate stress off the mat. The calm and focus you practice in class become your anchor when life gets busy.

When you shift from seeing fitness as a punishment to embracing it as an act of joy, everything changes. You’re not just moving for today—you’re building a foundation of freedom, energy, and strength for a lifetime.

6 ways to transition into fall ⬇

The end of summer is an invitation to pause, and the start of fall is an opportunity to return to routine.

If your nervous system is feeling spent after summer’s busy schedule, the shift into autumn can be a moment to embrace a slower, more grounded pace.

A few intentional choices to bring you back to center:

—Build a consistent fitness routine instead of glorifying intensity. Remember: your body needs space to restore and rebuild.
—Swap a scroll for a walk. Leave your phone in your pocket (bonus points if you leave it at home). Let your mind wander without a screen.
—Savor a slow and quiet morning. Ditch the temptation to rush. Take the time to tune in before the world catches up with you.
—Set a seasonal intention. Fall is a natural time for fresh starts. Ask yourself: How do I want to feel as the weather cools? What boundaries will protect my energy?
—Pick up that book you’ve been meaning to read for months. Dedicate 20 quiet minutes to completely immersing yourself in a story that has nothing to do with your to-do list.
—Practice purposeful reset. Doing “nothing” isn’t wasted time—it’s vital maintenance. Give yourself full permission to unplug without guilt.

There’s something sacred about the start of September.

It’s not crisp, sweater-weather fall just yet (but trust us, we’re counting down the days). We all feel it though: the collective mood has shifted, and it’s that unmistakable "fresh notebook" feeling. That craving for structure, routine, and a return to the habits that make you feel like you.

After the beautiful, chaotic whirlwind of summer, returning to routine is a return to yourself.

When built on body wisdom rather than pressure, your daily rituals become your anchor. They give you the energy, resilience, and clarity to navigate the season ahead with confidence. Let’s dive in.

Positive. Connected. Encouraging. ✨
