Pure Barre with eight locations in Michigan
Enter one of these studios and you’ll walk into a room with ballet bars lining the walls. Don’t be fooled by the gentle, low-impact movements though—you’ll be sore after this ballet-inspired workout. Classes cost $18 for one or $99 for new clients to try it out unlimited for a month.

BollyFit in Ann Arbor
Classes here are a combination of classic and folk Bollywood-inspired dance moves. The founder, Anuja Rajendra, even helped the Michigan ice dancing team of Meryl Davis and Charlie White with an Indian-dance-inspired routine. A six-pack of classes costs $99.
