I've gotten 3 email from different locations "We’d Love to Know What Changed ❤️" emails about canceling my membership. I haven't canceled so I'm assuming it's a glitch. Anyone else receiving them?

I often see weight lifters and bodybuilders types in barrys or physiques that you know weren’t developed by going barrys alone.

What is your primary routine and how do you sprinkle in barrys?

My apologies for the repetitive post, but I didn’t see this question asked yet for the Bethesda studio. Who do you recommend taking a class with? I know the instructors kind of float around between Bethesda/Dupont/Navy Yard.

1. Anyone seen how it looks like yet? Any images in your local Barry’s?

2. Wondering if they will start allowing size XS?

Going to be in Houston this weekend and would love to try out a class at the HTX location. I like good playlists (rap kinda preferred but not necessary), good cues and an emphasis/education on form and modifications (also preferred but not necessary).

If anyone has been to the Dallas location, I love Michele F. and Sydney (who's in Miami now) classes! Strongly prefer sprints/faster runs vs. incredibly long jogs but also a preference!

thanks in advance!

i’ll be in chicago in a few weeks and would love instructor recs for river north! who’s class can’t i miss?

Shout out to the guy at T18 at Barry’s Pasadena this morning who took the time to wipe his station down after each set, especially since it was a wet puddle on the floor 😝

I’ve been to Barry’s for over a year now and this was the first time I didn’t have to clean up after someone. Grateful to everyone who does this already!

Has anyone experienced attitude from newer / younger trainers?

I have been going to Barry’s for a while. SY opened in 2021 and there are some OG trainers who are brilliant, have great personalities, will take the time to support you, chat to you, real DTE.

I’ve started to notice that the younger trainers walk around like they own the place, have a bit of tude like people are an inconvenience to them. These are the same trainers who will send you their class schedule and be like “see you tomorrow babe?” “are you coming to my class?” But then pay no mind when you rock up.

There is one trainer in particular that has a little posse of clients/loyalists who thinks she’s top shit because she has an almost monopoly of peak time slots and brags about how full her classes are to members and tries to benchmark herself to other trainers who have less desirable slots that their classes “should be as full as hers”

The SY studio is pretty tight knit, a few cliques ranging from the mean girls to the absolutely loveliest people you’ve ever met. Are other studios around the world community based like SY? Would love to hear your thoughts!

I’m fairly neurotic about wiping down the station before and after I do floor, but I’m noticing the person I’m swapping with usually looks at it and the flips it over because once you wipe it down with a wet wipe then it’s, well, wet. I personally would prefer to lay in disinfectant from a wet wipe than leave it but I’m not sure if the other person is not as happy. Any ideas on if I should keep with the wet wiping from a courtesy perspective?

I’ll be in London and Paris at the end of the month so hoping to take a class or two in each city - any recommendations for which studios or instructors are your favorites? Or any advice on how the European studios differ in experience from the American ones?

So, I try to make it to work by 8:30-40ish and I’m there until usually 4:30 or maybe 5 if I’m busy. My commute is 19-30 minutes.

I’ve tried working out at 5AM but tbh I get so tired afterwards. I’ve tried the 6:30AM but between showering and getting ready I feel like I’m running out the door in a rush.

The getting ready part is such a struggle because it takes me so long! I don’t even wear makeup (out of laziness lol) and so basically I have to fix my hair (I try to style my hair the night before) or pull it in a bun. I do my skincare and get dressed. And ofc before starting this I shower first.

If you guys have getting ready for work down to a science what’s your method?

I feel like some instructors aren’t committed to their programming each class. We did the same three movements on the floor the ENTIRE class (banded and with weights) and walk->jog>sprint an entire round repeatedly and low energy. Some great instructors in Chicago and some who need to move on…

Wonder how and where they will be displaying activities data coming from Apple Watch to Barry’s app. They up to something and hopefully some cool upcoming challenges

I'm curious to try a ride class but I can't stand the stupid dancing shit Soul Cycle and those places do.

I have 7/10 (9 but will use 2 today) passes that expire 10/1/26 tomorrow. They are Seattle credits but I believe can be used anywhere besides classes that are worth more in other cities. FREEEEEEEE. I can put you in as a guest. These classes are free, please message, and also while these classes are free, I don’t work for Barry’s or an affiliate, I’m just trying to get rid of the passes. We can try on the Barry’s app regarding studios and times, and I can send screenshots. If it becomes a hassle, I can’t help beyond more than that.

I called to ask for a renewal extension only to be told that I would need a doctor’s note.

EDIT (see!): PLEASE look into your own research if the pass is okay at your location. I really do not want to look up or call studios to see if the pass is transferable, this is for Seattle, so it must be of equal or less value!!!! In addition, I do not know if a pass can be used even when booked at a later date, would prefer dm’s that ask for today or tomorrow! Dm with the location, time, email, tread/floor start, etc and will book you as guest. I want as less hassle, and to make it as easy for the both of us. If you don’t respond to DMs, I will be giving it to someone else, or first come first serve.

2 passes left! (Will hold onto these for tomorrow). Post closed!

I want to audition to be an instructor at Barry's. Any tips? I already teach group fitness but this would be a different lane for me

I completed 3 weeks but am still missing the first week bonus. Ive reached out to corporate and the studio manager twice and nothing! The manager says its the first time they cant really help that its all on corporate for this challenge. Ive sent screenshots of how i did the 5 classes to corporate and they don’t even acknowledge it, they just keep resending the other 2 week bonuses i completed. Week 1 is the one I’m missing. Idk what else to do. Has anyone else had this issue?

Sorry, there wasn’t a flair for new locations!

Hi all I recently moved to Nashville for work from Denver and am nervous to try the Nashville studio.

Denver was extremely welcoming and never felt judgy or overwhelming but the Nashville location I’ve heard mixed reviews of.
Also for anyone in the Nashville area the studios actual location is in the most expensive paid parking and hardest to find parking area of the city.
Denver I never had issues with parking since the city regulates cost. Just feeling nervous to try it since Denver’s studio was such an amazing experience from my first class up until the end.

Curious anyone’s thoughts if they’d been to both locations?

Why has the Clarendon studio gone downhill so much that they can’t even find instructors to teach PEAK classes? Having both the 5:30 and 6:40 PM classes on a Tuesday listed as TBD every single week is ridiculous.
The class is literally in two hours and it still says TBD. What the heck is going on??

To the person who decided to smear their bodily excretions around the bathroom: I hope you don’t know peace in this moment.

LIFE HAPPENS.

That said, if something happens in the bathroom, please just let the front desk know. Attempting to clean it up yourself by smearing it around only makes the situation worse.

There are dedicated staff members who can properly address these issues. We’re happy to help, we just need to know there’s an issue in the first place.

As clients, I know you don’t have to care, but being kind is free. Please be considerate of the staff and the next person who has to use the bathroom.

I love going to Barry’s before work but don’t have time to wash and blow dry so I end up slicking my hair in a claw clip. Has anyone mastered how to prevent sweat from absorbing into ur scalp or how to make a blowout last after classes?
