From Pure Barre to Yoga, We Love These 6 Orange County Classes
While 30 may be known as the new 20, it’s important to continue to prioritize health and wellness as you step into your 30s and beyond. With a variety of different workouts to choose from, a workout like barre keeps the body toned and tight while throwing in a hint of cardio too. When it comes to working out, it’s important to sculpt your silhouette the right way. Say goodbye to the days of heavy lifting and hello to a more mellow method of movement. Here are six low-impact fitness classes in OC for ladies 30 and up. Low Impact Workout Classes
Pure Barre
Prepare to transform yourself both physically and mentally with a Pure Barre class. Their musically driven group classes focus on low-impact, high-intensity movements that strengthen and tone your body in 50 minutes or less. This ballet-inspired workout is designed to improve your balance, build strength, increase flexibility, burn calories and cultivate a stronger core. If you’ve yet to experience this type of workout, Pure Barre‘s Foundation Class is the perfect place to start. This small group class introduces the basic movements of Pure Barre workouts while helping you discover how their technique works so you can feel the benefits of a full-body barre workout (and did we mention the first class is free?). As you begin to feel more comfortable, you can level up with a Pure Reform or Pure Empower class that incorporates different equipment and intensity levels to help elevate your heart rate and boost your metabolism. Check out one of Pure Barre’s various locations in Orange County to experience the sweat for yourself.
Locations: Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Irvine, Mission Viejo
