I highly suggest trying out the kings farm location of pure barre in addition to this location. The pure barre credit/membership can be used in either Rockville location. I gave pure barre a second chance and it was the best decision I made. Also if your an introvert, like me, barre is still for you. The music isn't blaring, there is plenty of classes to choose from and, honestly, the only person paying attention to what your doing is the instructor. I also paid extra for a private barre session with Emily - it was awesome. If your a beginner, don't be intimidated. The instructors are really good at offering modifications. After taking 10 classes, I went ahead and made the jump to sign up for a membership. I am glad I did!

I tried out their first free class and it was challenging but in a good way. The staff is very friendly and polite. The studio is beautiful with large windows and plenty of space to freely workout. The location is great and I am pleased with my experience. I will give this studio a try. To be updated.

I guess I am the only one who doesn't love it, but I am also one of very few I have seen over the age of 50 years old so, hmmmm.To outline my experience, there is only one class for beginners and you are not supposed to do that one once you sign up. This is, in my opinion, a bit of a bait and switch. Once you have committed to pay, there are no more classes that provide any real explanation. You are expected to know how to do it.Modifications are rarely mentioned so clearly the expectation is that everyone be a skinny expert that is already completely fit.This is really unfortunate because this is exactly the type of workout an older woman who needs to work on strength and flexibility should take, but it is too difficult and there are no levels to the classes where you can build up and get better. Trying to learn and improve in a class geared to people who are already strong and already able to complete each move with minimal difficulty, is very disheartening and demotivating.I am a confident and successful business woman who has been through menopause and was looking for something to improve and maintain my strength and flexibility as I age. I am 58 years old and 148 pounds which, while not young and thin, is also not old and obese.I have left class more than once with my self esteem shattered and feeling like an old, fat, uncoordinated cow.With the exception of Inna, who is amazing and kind and takes the time to explain and provide modifications, the rest of the instructors, while very nice, clearly are only interested in the thin and fit regulars who already know the moves and routines.On top of that, many of the classes are offered for people who must not have full time day jobs. The times for the classes must be for students, stay at home moms or part time workers. The majority are during the day and the latest starts at 6:30.I am very sadthis did not work out because I really need it, as do many other women in my age range and older.It really would be a benefit. It is unfortunate that it is really geared more to the young and already fit.

Pure Barre offers an effective methods to get fit, strong and sculpted. The owner and staff of the Rockville Franchise are a total class act and have created a friendly comfortable atmosphere. The instructors are very experienced and work with all class members to maximize technique and the benefit of the exercise. Beyond the mechanics, the classes are fun and the owner and staff continue to set up inventive ways to challenge yourself. I love the schedule of classes offered, the spacious and clean boutique and the ease of parking and attending classes. Thanks for a great place.

I love this new PB location - plenty of parking and places to hang out before and after the class, a large new studio with plenty of room to spare, and wonderful instructors as always. PB gets me up every morning and keeps me going all day by helping me become the best version of myself.

i have been a pure barre member since 2016 and am still so thankful for this studio! the work out is challenging, and i continue to see results, even after 6 years! most importantly, the staff and the other pure barre students make up the most encouraging and fun community, and it really has been my favorite part about living in the rockville area. you will make friends and you will gain strength and confidence! 10/10 would recommend

Easily my favorite workout studio...! My review is about three years in the works, as a PB-er who enjoyed their Twinbrook location but now LOVE their even bigger space at "FitRow" in Congressional Plaza. You essentially can choose from three different types of classes - Classic, Empower, Pure Reform. Empower is my favorite by far, especially if taught by Tristine or Kat! Be ready to sweat more than you think in this cardio infused class (tip - bring a little towel! You will thank me later). Make sure to sign up for an intensive class every now and then to mix things up as well! You can book and view the class schedules via the PB App, for virtual and in-studio classes. Do remember than you have to cancel your class BEFORE you get into the 4 hour window as otherwise, you'll need to deal with a cancellation fee. There's always different challenges going on, depending on the month to keep you motivated, as well as those milestones of reaching the 100/250/500/750/1000 class mark...! I'll be back to lift, tone and burn! ;P

I had been a few times to the Twinbrook location, but that studio has now moved to Congressional Plaza. It's on the top floor in FIT ROW, next to Core Power yoga and Orange Theory.What a studio! It's HUGE! Biggest pure barre studio I've been in. There is a big window in the studio, plenty of room for everyone with space! Equipment is around the corner out of the way.Katelyn is an amazing Empower teacher! The class was livestreamed at the same time. I wish they offered more Empower classes. It is my favorite of all the formats, followed by Reform.If you haven't tried PB, might want to check out this primo studio! Everyone was very friendly and welcoming! Highly recommend.

Pure Barre Twinbrook has moved to Congressional Plaza in the new FIT row, next to Core Power Yoga and Orange Theory. I had been to the Twinbrook studio a couple times, but this new location is amazing! The studio is the biggest Pure Barre studio I've visited! So much light with the window, plenty of space for everyone with room to spare! The empower class with Katelyn was amazing, she was livestreaming the class as well. Everyone was super friendly. Would love to attend more Empower classes there, but not that many are on the schedule per week. I hope they add more, its my favorite format over classic and reform. If you are looking to try PB, definitely recommend this location!
