The Bar Effect

Specialties

The Bar Effect is a total body workout that lifts your booty, tones your thighs, legs, arms and flattens those abs. Utilizing the bar to perform small isometric movements set to music, The Bar Effect is the fastest, most effective, yet non-​invasive way to change your body. Students see results very fast. The Bar Effect is intelligent exercise. The technique protects your joints as it does not involve any bouncing or jumping. Created with an Orthopedic background, each strength section of the workout is followed by a stretching section in order to elongate, lean muscle without bulk. It defies gravity by tapering everything in and lifting it up. The workout requires such focus that you block «life» out for the 55 minutes, allowing you to obtain the mental benefits achieved in yoga and pilates. The Bar Effect has amazing results in assisting with the rehabilitation of simple injuries to clients with spinal cord injuries. Partnering with The High Fives Foundation is not only a pleasure but
