Fit in 60

Not the most convenient location but what a great studio! Great barre classes! I’ve been to a few different barre classes in the area and this one has more ballet movements compare to other classes, focus more on leg work. The instructor worked my butt off, literally! Definitely a good workout that will make you sweat! I will probably be very sore tomorrow… but hey, no pain no gain! And if you write a Unilocal review you get a pair of free non-​slip socks for the barre class! Thanks for the free class and the socks!

Great studio that I didn’t take advantage of enough times. Ladies, this isn’t your normal studio as most classes are cardio based. Cardio barre is no joke and you’ll be working up a sweat for sure. Because of this, I felt I was burning a ton of calories, however I didn’t feel like I was toning as much as I would have liked to. Most exercises require use of a 1lb weight and are repeated in sets. Also, many of them utilize ballet moves that I’m not familiar with but it helps when the person in front of you knows what they’re doing. The studio isn’t too small or too big, so one-​on-​one instruction is provided very often which is a huge plus. I can’t say I was drawn to any particular instructor, but I can say Candise was the most difficult as she didn’t allow any rest in between each exercise. You’ll be sweating buckets under her instruction! Overall, fantastic studio that is worthwhile with a Groupon, but a little on the pricier side once it’s all used up (~$ 20 per class). I’m still glad I was able to give them a try!

A diamond in the rough. This place is a refuge immediately upon walking into the beautifully decorated waiting area you are greeted by happy staff.
I was really quite taken aback when I walked in… In a VERY good way!
The outside is quite unassuming with plenty of parking and a «Fit in 60» sign on the side. But upon crossing the threshold of this little place it’s like walking into a jewel box of shine and happiness.
The waiting area outside of the two studios is glistening with beautiful lights, Tiffany blue accent walls and just the right amount of items for sale (a few shirts, water bottles, socks and other relevant sundries). A cursory glance around and one feels the sense of authentic community this studio offers. *They have a white board wishing people Happy Birthday!*
If you’re in the class you’re surrounded by women sweating with smiles on their faces, awesome music and killer workouts!
Definitely come to this place!!! And bring a friend or two for sure.
They have classes 7 days a week pretty much all times throughout the day to encourage even the most hectic of scheduled to fit a workout in.
After years of unfulfilling «gym» attendance and employment I’m grateful to have found this place.
Go online and don’t just look and contemplate, but reserve a spot in a class and just make it happen. You’ll be so super psyched that you did!!!

Great workout class! Amy was a great instructor with really high energy and excellent barre exercises. Definitely coming back. My butt is already sore… can’t wait to try the sculpt class tomorrow! :)

This was SUCH a tough workout. I really really enjoyed it. I was looking for a workout to lengthen and strengthen and I believe that this workout does just that. The girls at the front desk are very sweet and friendly. Everyone definitely made me feel comfortable and welcome. The reason that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was because of the instructor. By the end she was yelling at us like a bootcamp instructor. I am just not motivated by that type of instructor, but I will definitely go back and I LOVED the workout!
As far as location, this is very close to where I live and it is kind of tucked away. but my GPS got me there just fine!

As I was recovering from a back injury, I ran across «Fit in 60». I’m a mat and reformer Pilates instructor as well, so I was seeking an environment that was void of cliques and included high powered safe movements that could balanced my healing process and core strength. So far, so great… Brittany and Rebecca are delivering with a great attitude and mad skills. Amy and Alina make you feel welcomed from the moment you walk through the door, too. I’m looking forward to trying a variety of other classes, too. HIIT, here I come.

4 down…6 to go… took a week off since i was out of town…
can’t wait to get back in!

My class instructor, Rebecca, has an infectious energy I have yet to see in any of the other barre or Pilates studios around San Diego which is much needed since there was a lot more cardio than expected — I actually broke a sweat. It was a great workout overall.

+ variety of barre/​barre-​ish classes to suit everyone’s needs
+ several classes a day
+ the office manager called me the morning of to make sure I knew what to expect on the type of class, etc as well as walked me thru stuff when I got there
+ no requirement on type of music — seems to be up to the teacher and I’m sooo grateful i wasn’t forced to listen to super loud techno the whole time
+ teacher was super nice and upbeat
+ everything but the sticky socks are included but of course you can pick up a pair there
Oh and yes, I’m going to be sore lol.

I absolutely love Fit in 60! This has been my go-​to exercise studio for the past 3 – 4 years, so I’ve been around for a while. Every single time I come back (I only spend a few months each year in San Diego), I’m reminded of how much I miss and need barre in my life.
What I love:
— You get a great workout. For a normal barre class, you normally start classes with a warm-​up, go into some cardio at the bar with muscle workouts (push-​ups, chair, fold-​overs, etc) in between before finishing in the center of the room with targeted ab and/​or glute workouts. In addition, they also offer other classes like Sculpt and Stretch, HIIT, and Buddha Barre. I’ve taken all of them at least once, and can recommend them. And if they still (hopefully) offer Piloxing once Bridgette gets back, those classes are awesome as well. No matter what, I always leave the studio sweating and feeling like I got a good workout in.
— The studio is super clean. I’ve felt really grossed out by the carpet situation at some other bar studios and the fact that I have to put my hands on it, so I really appreciate the wooden floors here. All the equipment, mirrors, and floor look like they’re maintained regularly.
— The instructors always change up the workouts from week to week, making sure that you get to work different muscle groups. I hate when an exercise class always follows the same routine because I get bored when I can anticipate what’s coming next
— And last, the people who work here are awesome! Alina, Yesenia, and Kayla at the front desk are all absolute sweethearts who always welcome you with a smile. Lina corrects my form so that I get a better workout, Megan is a rockstar who has amazing stretches, and Rebecca always leaves me drowning in a pool of sweat. Those are my three main instructors, but I’ve had over ten different ones at this point, and I’ve never disliked any of them, so you can’t go wrong.
I’ve tried a lot of other studios, and this is the only one that I’ve stuck with. I feel like I see results and I genuinely love coming here. Give Fit in 60 a try — you won’t regret it.

Class was with Candice in the early morning. I like working out in morning since I am an early bird. I felt it the next morning; My butt, thighs and abs were sore I was limping out of my bed. I love how barre works your entire body. Doing ballet growing up I remember some of the basic moves. She even gave us adjustment to correct our form & or have back problems. My thighs were shaking even before we started doing legs. At least the music was upbeat and motivating & so was the instructor.

I am not new to barre so maybe that’s why I did not enjoy it as much as the first timers here. The location is a little strange. It’s tucked inside a business complex that looks like it’s just a bunch of warehouses and the only way you wont miss the studio is their small freestanding sign and banner right outside their side door. The equipment looked outdated. I also didn’t like their mirrors because they were distorted. One thing I did like though was their separate changing room.
My first class was the Barre FIIT, and it was awful. While it was a cool concept, it was too fast paced and had so much going on. You basically had to do some exercises at each station for two minutes, rest for 10 seconds and then repeat. We were so lost that many of us didn’t do them at all. A couple of people even walked out of the class early. I think another reason why they walked out was the instructor. She was constantly screaming at us through her microphone like a drill sergeant. She was just not pleasant to listen to. She also wrote the workout instructions on a piece of napkin, which I thought was super ghetto. It would have been more helpful if she had small illustrations of the exercises instead. My second class was their regular barre class. I had heard that this used to be Xtend Barre and I absolutely love Xtend Barre. It was the reason why I wanted to come here in the first place because it was close to my work. Their routines are very similar, but the instructor killed it for me. She was so boring, unenergetic, which also made me feel unenergetic, and everything sounded scripted because she wasn’t making any eye contact nor interacting with us. She also appeared to be a newbie because she wasn’t really taking control of the class. When we were doing our warm-​ups, none of the air was on. We were sweating and panting away until finally, someone had to ask her to turn them on and then later, another person got up and turned on the AC herself. She was a little embarrassed by it.
It’s not as great as everyone claims it to be.

So happy I found a barre studio near work! They offer a lot of classes in morning, near lunch and after work. The studio is really nice. Nice wood floor. The grippy socks they provide grip the floor really well too. If u do a Unilocal review they give you free socks, which is awesome!
Did the 10 day pass for $ 19. It’s a great deal! My first class was a HIIT class, which was like a boot camp. I like that the teacher offered good modified moves for people with injuries. She also gave time in the beginning and the end for stretching.
Looking forward to trying the Barre class or next.

Want a really good workout? I had only tried barre once at a gym but I’m sure it’s different. My experience :
Came to the studio and they have two changing rooms and one restroom. There is a person at the front desk so you can check in there. There are two studio rooms. Everyone is super friendly. I was lucky to have Daphne lend me her grip socks as I didn’t have any. She’s so nice. You can buy socks there but $ 11 for a pair is abit pricey for me.
So in to the class, Amy was the instructor and she’s amazing. The class was tough n all I remember is shaky legs and shaky everything. I really like how she corrects my posture and on a ongoing basis too because it was my first time and i kept messing up. It was a hard class but also such a fun class. We were all laughing. Seriously laughing, Amy made it fun and it was fun because everyone else there was trying it out for their first time as well.
In the end I was sweating like crazy and a bit in pain, but oddly it was the good kind of pain.
I’m here today waiting for my second class and I can’t wait. So excited.

I came here because my roommate invited me. I had no idea what I was getting myself into! I’ve never done a class like this before.
This was probably the hardest workout I’ve ever done! It was also probably the most fun workout. Amy was an amazing instructor! So full of energy and encouraging. She had us all laughing when we wanted to die because our muscles burned so bad. You can tell she truly cares about everyone in the room. There were times I wanted to quit or just rest for a minute and every time I put my leg down for a few second break she showed up right next to me to encourage me. I love working out to music and had such a great time.
The studio is super cute and has a bunch of encouraging and cool sayings on the wall. I can’t wait to come back for my next class!

Loved this place and I got such a great work out.
They currently have a Groupon or a special in studio for first time clients. My co-​worker found this place on line and we decided to give it a try. I have been to other barre classes at The Daily Method and Barre3, and so far they have all been pretty different.
Amy, who I believe is the owner, was a sub for the class. She forewarned us before class started that she was going to work us. Since there were so many new people to the class we all introduced ourself.
The class had a lot of ballet influences. Several poses and toe points and posture was emphasized. The first part of class was using weights (1 lb recommended for beginners) doing different poses and then rotating. This was intense! I was probably sweating quite a bit and it was a great cardio work out (better than some boot camps I’ve gone to).
There was a lot of variety in the class and it kept going (in a good way). I wanted it to stop because my muscles were shaking but Amy kept pushing us.
Amy came around and corrected poses and ensured we maintained posture.
This was an awesome work out and so glad I came!

I’m so proud of myself! I tucked my way through this amazingly difficult but satisfying class!
Tonight, Maria C., Mia L., Amanda N., and I went to the 5:30pm class taught by Amy and we got a fantastic workout! As I am writing this review, my thighs are still shaking!
I frequented Amy’s studio back in the day (about 3 years ago) and I forgot how tuff the classes are! I love this studio because it is one of the only barre studios in San Diego that has hardwood floors. I have a thing against fitness classes and carpet and Bar Method and Pure Barre normally have carpeted floors. I think it is so gross when people are working out and we sit on a carpet while the room is musky and full of sweaty people. I’m just so glad that Fit in 60 has hardwood floors because it is so much more sanitary! Also, hardwood floors remind me of a dance studio!
I particularly like Fit in 60 because it is more dance-​y. I used to dance before my injury and enjoy the instructors using ballet terms. I also like that port de bras (movement of the arms) are incorporated into the repertoire!
Amy is so engaging and gives really wonderful corrections! I highly recommend you try because you will get hooked! You will leave with your arms and legs shaking and wanting to come back for more!
First class is free so what are you waiting for? You have nothing to lose… except for maybe those extra pounds that you’ve been wanting to get rid of!

So it’s been a year and a half since I’ve been to this location and low and behind Amy was subbing for the Thurs 530pm barre class. Ok it was totally meant to be because she totally remembered me!!! How crazy is that?!!
I came with 3 other Unilocalers (Daphne, Mia and Amanda) and this was our first visit together. There were also a handful of newbies in the class which was cool since we were all suffering together!
What I LOVE about this class is the cardio, weights, booty building and ab work. It’s an all in one work out. I was sweating within 5 mins of the cardio workout. This time I was so proud of myself for continuing with the 3lb weights while doing the cardio sessions. Heck ya!!! I already feel stronger!!!
Amy has so much energy and I love her spirit. She comes around and corrects your stance and positions so you get the most out of your workouts.
It’s fun coming with friends so you can laugh along with each other while your legs are shaking while holding your poses as you are on your toes! It totally made the hour fly by when your laughing along with everyone.
I’ll be attending classes for 2 months and I’m excited to transform my body even more. After this initial class, I already can feel the soreness that will kick in tomorrow!!!

For someone that has never done a barre class before, signing up for a studio for the first time can be a bit intimidating. But this studio does a great job of making the barrier to entry very easy, from their intro membership, friendliness of staff, and high intensity workouts. If you’re curious about what barre exactly means, this is a pretty good way to find out.
Personnel: The receptionist is super friendly and helpful, answering all your questions and making sure you’re comfortable. I tried out the barre class by Rebecca, and she had high energy throughout the 1 hour class.
Cost: For new (local) members, you can sign up for an intro membership — 10 days for $ 19. Its a more-​than-​generous time frame for you to try out the different classes and decide whether they’re right for you.
Variety: This particular studio has two locations, and based on their schedule, they offer a good variety of classes throughout the day. I’ve only tried the one class by Rebecca, but each day offers different teachers, which is a great way to mix up the styles and classes.

The hardest work out in North County. I’m serious-​if you need a booty that won’t quit, balance to rival jean claude van damme and thighs that gap enough to make a pre-​teen jealous this is ze place.
A bit of my history-​I used to be a gym rat, oh like 4 years ago, two-​a-​days #fitfam kinda shiz: Never seen without my protein shake. then I got lazy-​and slowly fatter… sigh. Working at Unilocal doesn’t help-​ALL THE FOODS. While I don’t want to return to that kind of lifestyle in the extreme there needs to be a blanace between me and and all the bacon. So I decided, ya know what? I’m gonna try a few places seriously till I fall in love with the gym again. My first choice: Fit in 60.
I almost died. In a good way. I bought a groupon and decide to commit myself to the barre (I’ve taken classes from Amy when she used to be in Rad C-​bad at a different studio set up and a few times with some Unilocal Challenges we’ve done) i went on my own, thank god, because almost dying isn’t pretty. Don’t be fooled by the ballet-​like appearance-​this is a seriously athletic undertaking.
Tiny iso movements, mini squats, concentrated ab work-​these are just a few of the things that’ll whip you right into shape at Fit in 60-they’ll make you sweat till you know it’s worth every penny.
This location is a bit hard to find and they note that you shouldn’t leave valuables in the car-it’s industrial in the area and prime for break ins. The instructors are helpful and unrelenting. Don’t pass out. Feel The Burn!!!
