Why is Ellie Kemper a Fan of The Bar Method?
What attracted the Kimmy Schmidt star to the barre? She was quoted in a SELF article saying that she used The Bar Method and SoulCycle for triathlon training. She would use these classes to complement her running.
In a 2016 interview with nymag.com, Ellie also had this to say about The Bar Method:
“For strength, I’ll do a lot of Bar Method classes, but I don’t get as much of an adrenaline rush. I’m not all jazzed up. It’s a totally different kind of exercise, and especially for toning and strengthening. I haven’t done enough yoga.”
