First time back at Pure Barre in 4 years and am wondering why it took me so long. I went to the Pearl studio in Portland and was greeted by Keaton who made me feel like family and made sure I felt comfortable with the facility. My instructor, Tess was fantastic. She explained the moves very clearly and showed me small changes to my posture/movements which made significant difference in the affect. I highly recommend Pure Barre at the Pearl to anyone who wants to have fun while getting in shape.

I LOVE this studio! Barre is amazing and is literally changing my life in terms of the challenge, increased strength and flexibility, and overall confidence it brings. This studio is wonderful in that it is super clean, everyone is genuinely welcoming and supportive, and all of the instructors are GREAT (challenging! Know how to mix it up! Super quick transitions so no time is wasted!). Extra shout out to Jasmine, who always has great music and is great at supporting good form throughout the workout!!

Pure Barre has been awesome for the two classes I took with them. I am recovering from a tendon injury in my right foot, and I scoped them out a few months before I committed. They were very understanding of my injury, and kept positive reinforcement when making form corrections. The free class teaches the basics to beginners before freeing them to enjoy further classes. The music is fun, instructors are diverse, and I leave challenged every time.

I love Pure Barre! All the instructors are SO friendly and encouraging, with extra love to my favorite instructors Amanda and Claudia. It really feels like a community that is welcome to all, with a workout that can be easily tailored to any level of fitness. I always leave with a smile on my face, and legs that feel like jello!

I absolutely love Amanda! As a former dancer and teacher/choreographer, I can say with all confidence that Amanda is an excellent instructor. Her knowledge of the technique and body positions in relation to proper form is the best example of what a trainer should have.Pure Barre is my physical therapy. I would still be struggling with hip pain and muscle imbalance without it!I’d give 10 stars if it was an option!

Amanda is a great instructor, and the hands on corrections throughout the class improved my workout. Definitely recommend, but as a heads up, you'll be sore after the first class

I love this location. The front desk staff is friendly and get to know you by name, as do the instructors. It's definitely not stiff and unfriendly in the way some pure barre franchises can feel; there are semipermanent instructors who really make you feel welcome (looking at you, Amanda, Jasmine, Tess!), and you can develop relationships and always ask for help. I also like Jordan the owner's eye for clothing, I've gotten some very cute - albeit expensive - outfits! Plus, there are fun events like art show fundraisers and book clubs. I will say, the location isn't the best (but where in Portland is anymore?), but the staff do a nice job of making you feel secure by locking the door and always being in attendance at the desk during class. Love this place! Oh, and I guess I forgot to mention the actual classes Take pure barre classic and align to start and graduate to the others. You won't be sorry!

I spend a lot of time at this studio and I love how warm and caring the staff is. Special shoutout to Amanda who is an exceptial instructor. I would not be as strong as I am now without her encouragement and push during classes.
