Barre (ballet)

This article is about the ballet apparatus. For other uses, see Barre (disambiguation).
A ballet dancer doing barre exercises at a portable barre. A permanent barre can be seen in the reflected background, mounted to the wall, to the right.

A barre is a stationary handrail that provides support for people during various types of exercise. Barres are used extensively in ballet training and warm up exercises, where such exercises are commonly referred to as barre work. In a ballet class, barre may also refer to the part of the class that involves barre work. Barres are also used for warm up exercises in other types of dance, as well as in general fitness programs.[1]

Not sure about the humor in dannno's remark (his jokes are often questionable...lol) but a dance barre is that wooden beam ~1 inch in diameter braced against the front wall. It's for balance and support during warmups and certain short exercises.
