Dubai-based fitness studio Barre Effect has added a new addition to its workout class roster – ‘Slide Effect’. Taking their signature 50-minute full-body sculpting class to the next level, the sliders turn up the intensity of any bodyweight move, with a strong focus on core and glute in order to keep strong stabilisation throughout the workout. The sliding discs allow for smooth, fluid, graceful movements, working multiple muscle groups while engaging core stabilisation throughout the range of motion.
There’s also many other classes available including Barre Effect, YBELL Effect, Mini Band Effect and more.
