Barre n9ne
It doesn’t take much to get Barre n9ne devotees to rave about the workout they get at the popular studio, calling the barre classes “awesome” and “amazing.” Barre combines dance and strength training for a workout that tones, lengthens, and stretches your limbs. “It is friendly for all levels of fitness,” says Julie Palmaccio of Tewksbury, who’s been taking barre classes there for a year and a half. “It’s great for toning up and making you a lot stronger.” Plus, she adds, it’s never the same workout twice, so there’s no danger of getting bored or hitting fitness plateaus. In addition to its Andover studio, Barre n9ne also has locations in Danvers and Woburn.
