Cancel Pure Barre (2026 Guide)

Pure Barre charges $150-250/month for unlimited small-movement classes. Here's how to cancel and at-home barre options that cost 95% less.

Pure Barre Pricing

• Monthly unlimited: $150-250/month (varies by market)
• 8 classes/month: $100-150/month
• 4 classes/month: $80-110/month
• Drop-in: $25-38/class
• Annual commitment discount: $130-199/month (12-month lock-in)
• Annual cost: $1,800-3,000 for unlimited

How to Cancel

1. Visit your home studio's front desk (some studios require in-person cancellation)
2. OR email the studio manager directly
3. Provide 30 days written notice before your billing date
4. If on an annual contract, ask about early termination options
5. Request written confirmation with your final billing date
6. Consider freezing first if you think you might return ($15-30/month freeze fee)

Freeze vs Cancel

• Freeze ($15-30/month): Preserves your rate, 1-3 month max, good if you're traveling or recovering from injury
• Cancel: Stops all charges. If you rejoin later, you may get a higher rate or have to pay a new enrollment fee
• Our recommendation: If you haven't gone in 3+ weeks, cancel. The sunk cost of keeping a membership "just in case" adds up fast.

What Barre Actually Is (And Why You Don't Need a Studio)

Barre combines elements of ballet, Pilates, and yoga — small isometric movements that target stabilizer muscles. The equipment is minimal:

• A sturdy chair back (replaces the barre)
• A yoga mat
• Light weights (2-3 lbs) — optional
• A small ball — optional

That's it. Everything else is the instructor cueing movements and a good playlist.

At-Home Barre Alternatives

• YouTube barre classes (free): Barre3, Popsugar Fitness, and Sydney Cummings have hundreds of full-length barre classes
• Barre3 Online ($29/month): Same studio quality, unlimited streaming. Founded by a barre instructor, not a franchise.
• Peloton app ($13/month): Barre classes with Ally Love and Hannah Corbin — excellent production quality
• obé Fitness ($15/month): Daily live barre classes plus a huge on-demand library
• Apple Fitness+ ($10/month): Barre and Pilates classes with Apple Watch integration
• Pure Barre GO ($30/month): Ironically, Pure Barre's own streaming platform costs 85% less than their studio membership
