Best Gyms with Free Parking near Ridgewood, New-jersey

Where shall I begin?!! The studio is immaculate and bright, and the staff is incredibly friendly, and not in that fake, sales-like way, but sincerely nice and helpful. This is my first experience at Bar Method and it was fabulous! The instructors are hands on and they have assistants that come around to adjust you and explain the correct form. My previous experiences with Pure Barre and some off shoots can’t even compare.. I can’t wait to go back...feel the burn!

Bar Method has left me feeling stronger than ever before! Since my first class at this studio, I’ve seen changes in my body, as well as my relationship with excercise. I look forward to taking class almost every day and seeing how much I can challenge myself. But it’s not just the workout that makes the difference, this studio is such a true community - staffed with instructors who are well trained, super friendly, and very knowledgeable! I never feel intimated here, but only supported by the community of women (and men) - both instructors and clients - who inspire and strengthen one another!

I have been taking Bar Method classes for over 4 years now. I absolutely love it. It is a non impact full body workout for mind, body, and soul. No matter what age or gender you are, you can do this. There are modifications if you need them. You just need to communicate with your instructor before class and they will be happy to work with you and provide safe moves for your needs. It's up to you how easy or difficult you want to make your workout. No intimidating machines and you are exercising with fun, friendly fellow students. The Bar Method Ridgewood instructors and staff are wonderful. Give it a try.

Love this studio. The teachers are welcoming, helpful, and motivating. I feel very comfortable in the classes, and never feel judged. The schedule offers a wide variety of class times. Definitely give it a try! You won't be disappointed.

Where do I start? hmmmm... Well this place is my second home. I will have been doing BM religiously for the past 6 years. I started in the NYC studio, as I lived and worked in the city at the time. I have always been into physical Fitness, and at the time I was going to the gym, working with a personal trainer and taking random work out classes here and there. Then a friend of mine introduced me to BM and that is where my story ends lol. After my first few classes I quit, yes QUIT the gym and only focused on BM. I have been doing so since, and do not plan on making any changes to my workouts. One GREAT advantage of the BM, which makes them stand out from the other BARRE classes, is the extensive training their instructors undertake. BM is great for individuals who have specific injuries or physical fitness restrictions (like myself) because the instructors have been trained so well. They will be able to meet with you one on one to explain some modifications that will work for you and your injuries. (This is the same with pregnancy.)Two years ago I moved to Paramus NJ and to my delight there was a BM studio only 12 mins from my house in Ridgewood. I immediately switched my studio to Ridgewood where I have been since. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The studio is always need and clean (which is something you want when working out.) The towel racks are always full, and the bathroom/locker room is well equipped for those who want to take class. This is a great advantage as you do not have to worry about heading back home to shower, and or worry about forgetting one of your toiletries. They have it all, except maybe a toothbrush for your use lol. There is no better workout or place in my mind than the Bar Method, and the Ridgewood Studio specifically. (I have been to a handful of them, as i make sure when I travel to find the closest studio so i do not miss my workouts, so i would know!) With that being said, sign up now and take your first class. Don't forget to give yourself some extra time before class to check out their cute boutique as well. !!!!
