Cardio Barre, in North Hollywood, has "raised the bar" for all other fitness classes. After bringing his talent from New York City to Los Angeles, dancer-choreographer Richard Giorla used more than 20 years of experience and classical training to create this ballet-based cardio workout. Yes, the word "ballet" insinuates a slow, controlled style of movement, but rest assured, Cardio Barre is anything but boring. This fun, fast-paced, fat-burning, sweat-dripping, muscle-toning workout is like nothing you have ever tired before. This is a high-energy/no-impact exercise class that combines barre work and light weights to build long, lean muscles and burn fat. Get a dancer's body with no dance experience.
