Loved every class I’ve taken so far. Very empowering teachers, and such a good vibe! I come in bloated and wake up the next morning snatched. I love the character of the studio, it’s really a treat to work out in a space with exposed brick. Carries the energy of a good ballet studio with great contemporary workout music playlists.

I have been very active since high school doing a lot of different kinds of workouts and would take bar classes over the years, but in January of this year I started to exclusively workout at Bar Method HB. I found that my back kept going out with other types of workout and the only classes that never did this were Bar Method. Going on 10 months and 104 classes later - my core and back have never been stronger and I have never been more addicted to a workout. All of the instructors are amazing. They all bring great energy and challenge you while not pushing to any point of injury. I live this studio and feel so lucky to have found it!

Every instructor brings great energy and makes sure you’re getting the most out of your workout while keeping proper form and safety in mind. The studio itself is clean, welcoming, and beautifully maintained. The classes are challenging in the best way, and I’ve seen real changes in my strength, posture, and overall tone since starting here. It’s such a supportive and motivating environment. I actually look forward to my workouts! Highly recommend to anyone looking to build strength, improve flexibility, and be part of a great community. The Hermosa Beach team is the best!
