Fantastic experience: Studio Barre is a gorgeous space and I highly recommend trying out a class. I'm a complete beginner to barre but Nicky took the time to run through what to expect from the class and check in with me at the end of the session. I really enjoyed the class and whole vibe. Would love to be able to go more often but unfortunately don't live locally but will definitely be going again whenever I'm in the area!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic location. Lovely ambience. We were made to feel very welcome on our first class. Very professional instructor and would highly recommend as part of a fitness regime thank you.

Andy Carrington 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I like the barre.blend which is partly pilates and partly barre in one session. Its a different session every time, and Nicky is very good at keep an eye on everyone and giving you ways to make it harder or easier as needed. Its a nice mixed-ability atmosphere, and helps with core and flexibilty.

Mike Preston 8 months ago

Frankie Ratnage 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: An amazing studio- especially great if you're working with any sort of health condition or injury, as Nikky is extremely knowledgeable. She has the ability to both make you feel safe and to challenge you. Can't recommend enough!

Amber 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Studio Barre is a lovely, welcoming space in Shrewsbury. I am just at the beginning of my ‘Barre Journey’ but I can already feel and see great improvements in my posture, balance and overall fitness. In addition to being an excellent teacher, Nicky has such a warm, friendly and kind presence.

Danielle Burton-Holmes 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Studio Barre! Attending both Nicky and Olivia’s classes with no Barre experience, I felt put at ease right from the start. The atmosphere is supportive yet calming, which has really helped me build my confidence in class. Each session is an enjoyable challenge and I genuinely look forward to attending every week

Sal Hampson 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I first approached Nicky @ Studio Barre for help to build strength prior to a second hip replacement and returned to classes 6-weeks post-op. Since then, my weekly visit to Signature Barre classes has vastly improved my flexibility, balance and confidence. With her professional knowledge of physiotherapy and generosity to support each of us in the class, Nicky provides an exceptional experience. I honestly do not think I would have made such great progress without this class.

Miranda Etheridge 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: What an amazing space you guys have created. So warm, welcoming, inclusive and with awesome classes. It’s my new favourite place. Thank you so much. ☺️

Helen Noel 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Studio Barre is a gorgeous studio space, Nicky and Olivia are so welcoming and full of positive energy. The classes are varied and never the same, so the classes are fresh and fun. I like the fact that at 12 maximum you never feel too crowded and with the mirrors can follow along easily, even for those new to barre. I am feeling stronger and more balanced physically and emotionally after each class. Highly recommended. Thank you!!

Fantastic experience: Really good sessions which challenge you physically and mentally. The results speak for themselves with significant improvements to power in legs and core strength.

Fantastic experience: This review is from the perspective of a young man who has lifted weights and played traditionally “masculine” sports most of his life. The review is split into 2 parts: - StudioBarre classes (5 Stars) - 1-to-1 Physio appointments with Nicky (5 Stars) StudioBarre Classes These classes are absolutely excellent. You would struggle to find a class of this quality in a large city like London, let alone in a medium sized town. Here’s why the classes are so good: 1. Nicky and her team create a friendly and welcoming environment for all. 2. The range of classes are suitable for virtually all levels of fitness and mobility, especially considering the exercise variations which the instructors introduce. 3. Instructions are extremely clear, meaning that those without a dance/ballet background can easily follow what to do and engage the right muscles. 4. Barre is a fantastic form of exercise and has helped my wife and I work on the smaller postural muscles which often get missed in conventional gym routines and exercise classes. 5. No two classes are the same, as Nicky and the instructors work hard to keep things varied and interesting. 6. In sum, these Barre classes have become an enjoyable and physically rewarding (but tough) staple of my exercise routine. I would highly recommend these to men and women of all ages. 1-to-1 Physio appointments with Nicky These are fantastic and well worth the investment in your health, here’s why: 1. Nicky is extremely conscientious and will take the time to assess all elements of your posture/movement and any pain points/concerns you have. 2. Nicky has truly achieved mastery in her craft and communicates complex topics in simple, actionable terms catering her advice to your personal circumstances (e.g postural exercises for those who don’t have much time). 3. The appointment is delivered in a kind, warm and time-generous manner. 4. Nicky follows up with her recommendations using a combination of clear exercise instructions and queues including via video (as required), this is extremely helpful. 5. In sum, I have seen multiple physios over the last few years and she is the best. I recommended Nicky to my parents who are in their mid 70’s and they also thought she was brilliant.

Fantastic experience: Love it !

Fantastic experience: I have found every visit to Studio Barre to be a positive and enriching experience. The studio and classes are expertly organised. As someone who had never taken part in group workout sessions or classes before, I have found the atmosphere to be nurturing, enlightening and not at all intimidating. Each session with Nicky explores something new and is never boring or repetitive. Add into this Nicky's vast experience in physiotherapy and you have an all-together wonderful opportunity to tap into some incredible personal growth, improve and explore your potential. I would wholeheartedly recommend Studio Barre to people of all ages and at all levels of fitness.

Fiona Pearce 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Studio Barre twice a week for the last 5 months, it’s rare for me to stick to an exercise class so that speaks volumes! Nicky and Olivia are both fantastic, knowledgeable teachers and provide a welcoming, friendly atmosphere. Every class provides a full body, low impact workout and the exercises are slightly different each week which I love. It’s so refreshing to find a high quality Barre class local to where I live, I don’t think it’ll be Shrewsbury's best kept secret for long!

Fantastic experience: All sessions have been very enjoyable. Really feel my core strength is improving

Peter Bottomley 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Lesley and I are so pleased to be attending classes at Studio Barre. The program has already helped us improve our core strength and balance. The classes are fun despite being challenging for us. Nicki pays attention to our individual needs and limitations and gives welcome encouragement. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Gemma Smith 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been attending classes 2 to 3 times a week at Studio Barre since it opened back in February and I honestly can’t recommend these classes enough! I feel stronger, more flexible and my body is so much more toned. Nicky has helped me identify and work through problem areas in my body and worked with me to strengthen and repair them. The Studio is in a beautiful Grade II listed building which is flooded with natural light, which has been decorated wonderfully, and provides a calm and tranquil space for the classes. I feel very lucky to have Studio Barre on my doorstep!

Kate Smith-Saunders 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent classes! The studio is such a nice setting for classes that relax me whilst really working all the muscle groups. I always leave feeling refreshed and wish I could fit it in more than once a week

David Wright 1 year ago

Lindsey Kennedy 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: What an amazing experience, such care and consideration given in supporting you and your body. Nicky ensures a warm welcome into a safe and well-structured environment. I started to feel the benefits very quickly, and cannot recommend Studio Barre highly enough!

Rachael Keenan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Studio Barre is a calming, welcoming space perfect for energetic workouts and relaxing cool downs. I hadn't heard of barre before attending but Nicky's knowledge and enthusiasm really comes through in each session, and it quickly gets addictive! Overall a very positive experience ✨

Paula O 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I was at the gym 5 days a week every week. Then I got injured, and all this unknowingly going through menopause changes. I couldn't cope with my gym routine anymore, and was in constant pain. I couldn't continue. I looked for a more gentle form of exercise but all classes available were during my work day. Studio Barre opened in town and I attended the Saturday morning session and never looked back. Not only do I notice improvement in my balance, but I'm getting toned and stronger again. It's a different type of strength building. It's fantastic. Technique is key and Nicky is attentive and encouraging during the lesson from start to finish. The Studio is spacious and calming. I am so grateful and thankful for this gem of exercise, community, strengthening relaxation and acceptance of our fragile frame.
