    It's wonderful (for so many reasons) to wake up and workout first thing, the West Plaza location makes it even better.

The hot yoga (express or regular - I've taken both) is challenging yet fun and all of the instructors queue lots of options, making it accessible for everyone to do what they want to do and make each practice their own. The locker room is spacious and the music keeps the vibes high before and after the workout. I can't wait to keep taking more classes here!

Once we were able to attend classes again, I was very impressed by their dedication to keeping their clients staying safe and feeling that they were in the right hands. I have been attending classes - a few of which are free! They have 2-3 classes a week that are free to introduce you to the studio and to the art of yoga! Following their social media and keeping in touch with the studio will help you figure out when these classes happen. One of my favorite classes that this studio has to offer is "sculpt." They incorporate weights into a traditional yoga setting. This turns the class into s a full-body workout. As a male, there are times where I may not "fit in" to yoga and fitness classes, but here I felt welcome. I feel that this is a workout that other males may also benefit from. They have sessions throughout the entire day. Be sure to check the schedule and plan ahead of time as spaces fill up.

    Barre3 is the most inclusive and welcoming workout space I've found in KC!…read more I was nervous to try Barre3 because I don't have a dance background or much flexibility, but after taking a few classes through ClassPass, I ended up signing up for a membership. The workouts are genuinely fun while still being challenging. Over the last three months, I've taken Strength, Signature, and Mindful Flow classes, and every instructor has done an excellent job programming workouts, offering modifications to make movements either more accessible or more challenging, and giving helpful form cues throughout class. I also appreciate that the class routines change monthly. It gives you enough time to become familiar with the movements, build confidence, and progressively increase weights before transitioning into something new. The studio itself is extremely clean, and they provide everything you need, including mats, weights, blocks, and bands. I especially appreciate that it's not a heated studio and that instructors are intentional about the room environment by adjusting fans, temperature, and lighting so classes stay comfortable and focused. Another thing I've appreciated is how responsive the studio has been to member demand and that they genuinely care about their members. In the few months I've been attending, they've continued adding class times and formats, including convenient 5:45 AM and 5:45 PM options that fit well into a work schedule.

    This is one of my favorite workout studios in the city!! I found this studio on ClassPass but ended…read moreup loving it so much that I bought a membership. They offer a student discount which is also a nice benefit! I've been consistently taking barre3 classes for about 6 months and I know I have gotten stronger. It's rare to have a strength class that is focused on lifting weights where the whole class is in sync with the instructor. I also love the signature classes which are more traditional barre. Other barre studios rely on traditional ballet position names, but barre3 is much more accessible in my opinion. The instructors are all wonderful, but I especially love taking classes with Meghan! The studio provides all of the equipment you need, including sweat towels and mats. In a world where the heated studio is taking over, it's nice to have a traditional studio format. The main reason I attend this studio is because they offer a 5:45 am class four days a week. The only thing I would change is that it would be nice to have a mindful flow (yoga focused) class offered later on a week day. Your first class is free, so you have nothing to lose by checking it out!!

    It's been over a year since I've found a workout community that tI thrive in, and that community,…read morethat studio atmosphere, is pure barre. This studio location is conveniently and poshly located on the country club plaza and has been open for two years. But, there are multiple metro locations here in Kansas and Missouri, and if you're traveling, you're bound to find a pure barre studio! So, you're never far away from a "lift, tone, and burn"! If you've never danced in your life or if you're in retirement from high school, college, or (lucky you), professional dancing pure barre brings the spirit and discipline of dance conditioning, as well as pilates and hints of yoga, to a full body workout. With multiple class formats and different choreography (but not in the cardio dance class sense) week to week you, and you muscles, will never get bored. The teachers here are so knowledgeable that they are always offering and encouraging variations to the exercises to accommodate beginners (as well as level ups for more advanced class takers). They also offer hands-on (only if you're comfortable) corrections, which improve form and make sure injuries and soreness are minimal. Also, if you thrive on praise and verbal incentives, then pure barre is your place. They make it a priority to learn your name and make every class personable. The instructors are pure barre plaza, which are so well trained and are never slacking; they add so much to the community. It's one of the only fitness studios I've been to where you are used to catching a teacher in another teacher's class on their day off. Tuck Yeah! Pure Barre Rocks

I personally find that the best aspect of this unique community is that we all do things in synchronicity and it's basically like you have your own personal trainer We don't compare each other's abilities, we support each other as a whole. I believe that is the purpose of Pure Barre. Going into year three, I find this place and its sister locations to be my outlet on life. I also find this type of exercise along with their music and amazing instructors to be my personal inspiration which also helps me grow as a person in all aspects of life. If you choose to dive in and give it all that you have, nothing can stand in your way in life ever, but you. Xoxo

    The Leawood Bar Method can be five stars or two stars depending on who's at the location that day…read more For the most part, I absolutely love the classes and staff here. If you're looking for a barre studio, or you've done yoga/pilates and you're looking for a fun but serious workout studio, this studio should definitely be on your list. Instructors I would recommend to be sure you have a great experience are Lauren, Morgan, and Erin. From the first day I came, they knew my name and gave personalized feedback on how to do better. That said, I rated a bit lower than I normally would because there have been a few very negative experiences here that made me not want to go back. It was mainly just being unnecessarily rude? Which is out of character because the primary things I love about my favorite instructors here is how attentive, encouraging, and detail-oriented they are. If you want examples of the negative experiences I've had, I won't be exhaustive but one example is when I brought a friend to class. Whoever was manning the front desk completely ignored us, and when I asked which room class was in that day, she corrected me on which instructor's class it was without answering the question. My friend felt really unwelcome and I felt terrible that it was her first experience with barre.

Seriously, I don't even want to write this review because I don't want the secret to get out how incredible it is that you can take these classes for free. Power 1 is perfect for high energy beginners (like me). This class will make you feel strong and refreshed. It's the perfect balance between working your body physically and mentally. G has such a calm, positive, compassionate presence. Not only will she help you through the physical moves but she will help you focus mentally on mindfulness and repeating a positive mantra. Not to mention, her playlist is on point! Power Life has several membership offerings including free walk-in classes. Sometimes they run a 30 days for $30 special. The facility from lobby to locker room to fitness studio is so fresh and so clean (the locker room smelled of eucalyptus and the class of light incense). Power Life is located in TwoLight. But don't be nervous about downtown parking, Power Life will validate your parking garage ticket for free!

The pool area was amazing, easily the highlight. Food was fine but pretty medium/mediocre -- didn't take away from the overall experience though. Parking was a bit of a challenge, so plan for that. Never been before this event, and I'd definitely go back. If you get the chance to check this place out, take it.

You're better off not signing up and just walking in. 2. Brining guests is a complete hassle and you're charged a non refundable fee of $25 if life changes happen and you don't come with a guest that day. On several occasions I was denied guests even tho it was well before the required 24hour application to request them. On multiple occasions my requests were completely ignored and went unreported to even if they were placed 72hours in advance. I was frequently traveling to KC for work and sports only to be hassled when my wife visited from LA stating that I reached my cap for local guest passes (mind you, she lives in California full time and would visit me about once or twice a month for a weekend) 3. Steam room in women's bathroom is utterly disgusting and wasn't cleaned since I was there over a several month period, how'd I know? The dirt streaks and giant clump of hair that just remained of the floor for over 6months 4. Coming from Los Angeles and the Heimat gym where I pay $350/month, I was excited to try this gym... but this gym is clearly nothing but a wanna-be elite gym. The best part of this place is the flavored water in the women's locker room- And maybe the pools in the summer but good luck finding parking 5. Looking to bring up an issue with the staff and escalate it? Don't worry, they're happy to ignore you. Trust me, you're not gonna miss this place. Only thing it's memorable for is being complicated while trying to use its perks and over complicated. The 2 stars are for the water and the equipment. The cleaning staff is super nice tho!
