The Shops At Farmington Valley Welcomes Health, Fitness Businesses

CANTON, CT — This spring, The Shops at Farmington Valley has added its first health facility and a gym that offers barre classes to its lineup.

Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute, which provides cardiovascular care, is opening this spring; while Pure Barre, which teaches barre classes, has already opened its doors.

"Expanding our breadth of health and wellness services that we have to offer here makes it even more convenient for consumers to have easy access to their important healthcare appointments," said Elizabeth Ackerman, general manager of The Shops. "And with the addition of Pure Barre and the new XPASS by Xponential Fitness, achieving one's health and fitness goals has become even easier."

Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute

Trinity Health of New England is opening a Hoffman Heart and Vascular Institute at the Canton plaza this spring (at 110 Albany Ave., Suite 209). The Shops' first medical facility, it will provide cardiovascular care to new and existing patients.

Dr. Ofer Sagiv and Dr. Robert Kahan will be joining the practice. Both have years of experience in cardiovascular imaging, valvular heart disease, heart failure and arrhythmia management, officials said.

"We are excited to bring state-of-the-art cardiovascular care to the Farmington Valley at our new location in the Farmington Valley Shops in Canton," Drs. Sagiv and Kahan said in a statement. "We are thrilled to be able to provide superb, compassionate care closer to home for so many and proud to be part of an organization who remains committed to convenient, higher-quality care at a lower cost."

Patients can make an appointment or find out more information by calling 860-714-0187 or visiting the practice's website here.

Pure Barre

Pure Barre, a fitness studio with over 550 studios nationwide — including seven in Connecticut — has chosen The Shops for its first Farmington Valley location.

The studio has opened at 110 Albany Ave., Suite 924. It offers a full-body workout, with musically-driven group classes (up to 50 minutes long) that focus on low-impact, high-intensity movements designed to strengthen and tone the body.

"Pure Barre continues to lead the barre category with its proven, effective technique," Pure Barre president Sarah Luna said. "Pure Barre is more to our customers than just what happens within the four walls of a studio. There is a shared sense of community to inspire and empower each other's fitness and lifestyle goals, something we're proud to say is reaching new clients each day with the addition of new studios."

Anyone who wants to sign up for a barre class or get more information can call 860-352-8873 or visit the studio's website here.
