I have taken a couple of classes at the Bar Method West Hollywood so far. One in person and a couple over the Zoom. I loved the studio, very bright, clean and modern looking. The owner, Mimi was extremely helpful and friendly. The instructor were also very helpful and on point with the tips she was providing and the personal attention. I strongly recommend this place. The Zoom class was also very convenient and I still got a great workout. I would strongly suggest Bar Method!

I loved my class - I met Mimi, the owner for the first time! and the class was amazing! She has run the Bar Method for years like a home business and her personal touch is everywhere! The studio is so warm and welcoming, The exercises are never the same but challenging and fun - the hour flies by. I usually take Jen's and Elizabeth's classes but I'm so happy there is now a Sunday afternoon class and Libby is a wonderful teacher, too, as are all the teachers there.

I owe a lot to Bar Method in helping me achieve my sculpting and toning goals. I’ve been taking Bar Method classes for so many years. All of the instructors are very helpful and enthusiastic. I always feel like I’m part of a family especially when instructors gets to know every student. The exercises are challenging but definitely feasible. It never feels routine especially when new exercises are incorporated with original ones taking us to higher levels. No matter how long of an absence I’ve had from the studio, I always feel like I’m back home. Thank you Bar Method!

I’ve been an on-and-off Bar Method visitor for years in different cities and states but the studio at West Hollywood has far and away cemented my love for the workout. During the pandemic the online classes have provided such a great sense of routine, predictability, challenge, and community that I’m sure I’ll be a member for good! All the teachers are wonderful. Notably, the studio has offerings (even on Zoom) throughout the day and week, which sets it apart from other studios that have gone online. I love Bar Method and I especially love this studio!
