Pure Barre

I've been going to Pure Barre Marina Del Rey for the past 6 years and it is the best fitness studio. The instructors are amazing and the ownership runs the studio so well. They truly care about the wellbeing of their clients. I have tried so many different workout classes and this is the one only that really tones and gets me the best results. Highly recommend.

Pure Barre MDR is the best studio in town! I pay for my gym membership every month but I stopped going about 4 years ago because I do barre pretty exclusively. I’ve been a member at this location since it opened and have only had positive experiences! Kristina goes out of her way to make everyone feel welcomed and she is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. (She’s also my accountability coach when I miss too many classes! ;) ) The team of instructors are also amazing and work each class to ensure they know everyone and their personal fitness goals. My favorite class is classic because I’m a purist but I take the other classes regularly because they challenge me. Even though PBMDR offers group classes, I always feel like I get tailored feedback, which is so helpful! I love this studio and definitely encourage anyone looking for immediate results and community great women to give it a try!

I've taken my fair share of barre classes before and Pure Barre is the only one that has worked to help relieve my shoulder and neck pain. It's hard work, but so worth it. The teachers are super encouraging and they definitely put their effort in to get to know each individual student. The classes are small which allows for teachers to provide individual adjustments for each student so we have more accurate form and subsequently more challenge - which I so appreciate. The owner, Kristina is also very welcoming and definitely creating a community with a "can do" attitude.

Love this studio! The staff and instructors are exceptional. Each time I visit, I am welcomed by name :) The instructors make a point to give you shoutouts and correct your form throughout each class. They give you tips on how to push through challenging positions and empower you to hold through the “shakes.” Each instructor brings something different to the table, but they are all awesome! I’ve never been able to stick to a workout regimen before pure barre, and I’m not going back. My clothes fit better and I notice positive changes to my physique and mindset after each class.

I booked a class here through ClassPass and received a formal confirmation email. However, when I arrived at the studio, the front desk refused to let me in, claiming ClassPass hadn't paid them recently. They told me to handle it with ClassPass myself and showed zero empathy for the fact that I had already spent time and gas to get there. It is a B2B payment issue between the studio and the platform—it should not be the customer's responsibility to bear the loss. If there is an ongoing issue with the platform, the studio should take responsibility and immediately coordinate with ClassPass to take their schedule offline, rather than continuing to allow bookings and letting more customers show up in vain. Very poor communication and unprofessional management. If you use ClassPass, beware—you might be turned away at the door without any prior notice.
