As you guys know, I’m a huge fan of barre workouts. I love all of the various types, teach weekly barre classes, and also seek out new and beloved studios when I travel. My good friend Kate owns the Tucson barre3 studio (go say hello! She is the sweetest ever, and then she’ll make your legs cry) and I love take classes when I get the opportunity. Barre3 is unlike traditional barre classes. Many of the exercises are similar, but there is a mind-body element to Barre3 (a yoga, Pilates and barre lovechild), and they have a holistic approach to health and wellness. barre3 doesn’t end when you walk out the door; I feel that they truly support and encourage their clients with overall health, balance and wellbeing. In addition to the classes, they provide support for mamas with their Play Lounge (Liv loves it!), and also offer healthy recipes, tips and advice through their website.
They haven’t officially announced it yet, so this is a special sneak peek for Fitnessista readers: their next Challenge is on the way.
The Challenge plan is simple.

-Do four 60-minute workouts (online or in studio)

I try and get a little more sleep during the holidays – helps keep my immune system up!
To stay on track over the holidays I try to remember it’s all about balance. November and December are holidays heavy on food and that’s okay. Eat, get out, and enjoy life!
I follow on Instagram.
planning time at the beginning of the week helps me to stay balanced- that way I at least know when I can get my workout in, and I don’t let myself skip it!
I’m going to try cardio, strength and stability!
Meal planning and prep, and consistent workouts keep me balanced through the holidays, so on the days I go to holiday parties I feel fine about eating some holiday treats. Also, I won’t eat treats that aren’t holiday specific–like chocolate chip cookies–I can get those any time of the year! I bring a healthy(er) treat to parties so I know there’s something I can eat and feel great about.
I love to stay fit during the holidays with yoga – it keeps my body AND my mind sane. So important!
Just had a baby….and am secretly SUPER psyched to overindulge a bit this holiday season. Will plan some great New Year’s resolutions though!
I signed up for the barre3 trial (thank you!) and can’t wait to try the fierce + fun workout.
Oh, and I follow you on instagram (hollyanja).
To keep me balanced and sane, I exercise-even if it is quick 15 minute walk around the block.
Signed up for the free trial! Can’t wait to try the prenatal course!
And I already follow you on Instagram!
Salt baths help me stay balanced during the holiday season 🙂

I bought a Groupon earlier this year for a month at a Barre studio and loved it! I signed up for the online trial and can’t wait to try a full body tone first!
I stay balanced by making sure to get my workouts and running in. If not I won’t feel like myself!
I am now following you on IG!
Checking in with my sweet husband keeps me centered.
I stay balanced by drinking extra water and making sure to eat as I do regularly and eat only the treats I am really craving!

Getting plenty of sleep, and working out (as much as time allows) help me stay balanced 🙂
It can be so hard for me to stay balances during the holidays. I work two jobs (one full-time in an office and one part-time in retail) so it can be hard to fit everything else in during the holiday madness. I make sure to make sleep and “me” time a priority so i don’t completely lose my mind!
Working out definitely keeps me balanced during the holidays, and during any other busy time!
Just signed up for the free trial! I am so excited because this could not have come at a more perfect time for me. I am going to be traveling for work all next week and planned to do some hotel room circuits. Now, I am definitely going to try the Barre 3 Anywhere video! No props necessary and perfect for travel 🙂
I signed up and will try the barre3 Interval Strength tonight!
Downtime with my boyfriend, helps me recharge after stressful days at work!

I stay balanced by going to a weekly yoga class
I am looking forward to trying Standing Energy Blast from Barre3
I stay balanced by allowing myself to enjoy holiday treats and not beating myself up for missing a workout- I just begin again everyday and forget what happened yesterday!
I followed you on Instagram!
Making time for my workouts-they are my “me” time!
I am totally trying the Barre3 Fierce + Fun!!
Taking the time to do the things I love really helps me stay balanced. Baking, taking a bath, reading a book, or all of the above 🙂
I always try and get enough sleep each night!
Getting up to early to sneak in a little yoga or quick workout helps me stay balanced and reduce stress.
I work out at 5am most mornings…no matter how crazy the days gets, at least I exercised! A Barre3 studio just opened in my town…not sure if I can afford to take a class there, so the free online trial is perfect – I think I’ll try the Lunch Hour Body Blast first.
I’m trying Hot tea! (which I NEVER drink) and also eating right and avoiding holiday treats until at least the 20th! I usually dig right in on Dec 1 with the holiday eating. Trying to avoid not only the Holiday weight gain this year, but also the colds that come with letting my immune system get down by filling it with junk! 😀
I am staying on top of my H2O intake, very important during this season!!!
My trick for staying on track is to make sure I’m bringing a healthy dish that I love. Then I know I’ll make a point to at least get a solid portion of something nutritionally dense on my plate.
I also follow you on Instagram. 🙂
Making time for myself during the busy season keeps me balanced (reading a book, doing my nails..)
I’d like to try any of the barre3: anywhere vids!

Keeping up with my workouts is definitely what helps to keep me balanced during the holiday season.
I’m really excited about the free-trial! I don’t live anywhere near a barre studio, but have been dying to try it out! Thank you!
I love yoga!
Continuing my workouts and drinking water helps me stayed balanced and centered during the holidays.
