Dare To Go Barre This Weekend in Portsmouth

Bellevue Barre Newport (part of PulseNewport) will open a second satellite studio in Portsmouth. The grand opening will offer free classes this week. Some restrictions apply and space is limited.

Bellevue Barre Newport, which is part of PulseNewport, will open a second satellite studio inside Peak Fitness, starting this Saturday in Portsmouth. 

Peak Fitness, Portsmouth's only fitness gym, recently expanded its space by 3,000 sq. ft. at the Portsmouth Industrial Park to offer a "Ladies Only Circuit." As part of the expansion, Bellevue Barre Newport will operate its second studio within Peak Fitness. 

Barre workouts incorporate elements of ballet, pilates and yoga, as well as light weights and ‘squishy’ balls with high repetition movements. The workouts are geared to condition women "target areas" - butts, thighs, arms and abs.
