    I'd probably go conservative and log it as yoga honestly.

    I log it as general aerobics. I'm pretty sweaty by the time I'm done!

    My gym, Equinox, lists my Barre class as burning 298-646 per hour, depending on intensity, for a 160 pound female.

    Have you ever taken a barre class? Every one I've ever taken is intense!

    Log it as a Barre Class if you want, you can add exercises to the database at the bottom if they are not already there.

    I logged it as dance, but probably will do yoga next time. Yes - or add a custom workout.

    I was confused about this as well. Next class I will wear my HRM and make a custom entry.

    not a specific "barre" one- but I am a dancer- and I do barre like work- and I do yoga- and I do dance stuff.

    I'd still log it as yoga.
