pure barre = pure torture

I went to pure barre for the first time today after my girlfriend Julie suggested that I'd love the workout. (Julie and I have done pilates together for a year so I had every reason to believe her.) OH MY GOODNESS - it was 10x more difficult than any Body Pump class I've ever taken and so different than pilates.

I'm in dang good shape right now with doing pilates 4x a week but this was such an intense class. The parts of class that focused on my strengths from pilates were okay, but the portions that were ballet focused were incredible. The article in the Denver Post last year was dead-on. I don't know if I'm naive or a sucker for punishment but after reformer tomorrow I'm heading to another class. Hopefully tomorrow isn't as killer as it was today.
