Barre and Pilates are a New York favorite, and this experience puts the recipient right in the middle of it at one of three Manhattan studios. Each one-hour, instructor-led class mixes strength training, dance, Pilates, and stretching to work every muscle group, with plenty of burn and plenty of moments to catch a breath.

The five formats keep things interesting. Barre and Barre & Band focus on sculpting and stability, Strength adds heavier weights, Mat Pilates targets the core, and Ignite brings fast-paced interval training. With studios at The NoMad, 60th & 5th, and The Waldorf Astoria, it is easy to fit a class into a day out in the city or a regular routine. A great gift for birthdays, thank-yous, and anyone who loves a good workout.
