A typical Physique 57 session is a full body workout that is 57-minutes long and offers their signature approach to barre. Their classes are high intensity, low impact and can be adjusted to all ability levels by an experienced and well-trained instructor team.

Some of their movements will use just your body weight, whereas others use training tools such as light dumbbells or soft balls that are used to strengthen and build muscle. One of their trademark techniques is to “pulse” small movements repeatedly to target small, often underused muscle groups.

Class types include Sculpt for beginners, Power Sculpt for intermediate practitioners or Power Sculpt Lab for a more advanced challenge. They also have a range of online classes available.

The phone line was not answered when we tried to call the studio a few times.

Upon arrival, we were greeted promptly, and the receptionist gave us a tour, pointing out key areas like the locker rooms and water stations. They showed genuine interest by asking about our experience with barre and offering thoughtful details, such as where to refill water bottles.

During departure, the receptionist remained polite and professional, explaining package options and suggesting a trial for new clients without any pressure. While the interaction was informative, a more proactive effort to ask about our class experience or encourage a return visit would have added a more personal touch.
