Renee Taliana, in the forefront, owner and director of Staccato Barre, is a certified barre and pilates instructor, as well as yoga instructor and massage therapist\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

By Liz Witbeck<\/p>\n

Staccato Barre opened in downtown Saratoga
\nSprings in early August, a fitness studio offering
\na fusion of dance conditioning, pilates and ballet.
\nKnown for high-repetition, small-pulse movements,
\nbarre offers an efficient opportunity to
\nbuild and sculpt lean muscle, while increasing
\nflexibility and improving balance.<\/p>\n

Renee Taliana, owner and director of Staccato
\nBarre, is a certified barre and pilates instructor, as
\nwell as yoga instructor and massage therapist. She
\nspent several years creating the Staccato method
\nof barre, which she considers to be creative while
\nstill intense and effective. She felt there was a
\nneed for a barre studio in the area and opened
\nStaccato.<\/p>\n

The fitness studio is located at 489 Broadway,
\nsecond floor. Inside is a large space, with barres
\nlining the walls and beautiful hardwood floors.<\/p>\n

Large windows offer members a view of Broadway
\nwhile exercising. The studio can accommodate
\napproximately 25 people, allowing instructors to
\nprovide members with individual attention.<\/p>\n

There are five certified barre instructors who
\nteach at the studio, including Taliana. Most
\nclasses are 45 minutes long and consists of time
\ndedicated to arm strengthening, barre technique
\nand core conditioning. Barre enlists props such
\nas balls, resistance bands and rollers to create a
\nfull workout.<\/p>\n

Since opening in August, more than 200 men
\nand women have joined Staccato Barre, the owner
\nsaid. Barre helps to condition several unique
\nmuscle groups that are not being toned in other
\nfitness classes.<\/p>\n

“It is low impact, but extremely precise,” explained
\nTaliana on how barre helps to isolate and
\nstrengthen individual muscles.
\nTaliana believes the real advantage of Staccato
\nBarre is the 45-minute workout routine. “In that
\ntime you’re getting that toning, conditioning, and
\ntraining,” she said.<\/p>\n

No prior experience in barre, dance or other fitness
\nprograms is necessary. Most people who come
\nto Staccato have not tried barre before. Taliana
\nencourages all new members to go at their own
\npace, while also challenging themselves physically.
\n“It’s the anti-gym feeling,” said Taliana.<\/p>\n

Michele Ruggiero, co-owner at Staccato Barre,
\nsaid the goal “is to provide a wellness opportunity
\nto people… It’s more than just exercise. It’s about
\nfeeling good, encouraging nutrition and wellness.”
\nStaccato Barre soon plans to offer Barre Bootcamp
\nas well as yoga, massage, and cross training.<\/p>\n

Currently, Staccato Barre holds 28 classes a
\nweek in their Saratoga Springs studio. Classes
\nrange from beginner to weight training for experienced
\nbarre users. Memberships are available on
\na monthly and annual basis. For more information,
