上月TITIKA 與新加坡著名的健身中心WeBarre合作，舉行了一堂Barre的體驗課。顧名思義Barre 就是利用芭蕾舞扶手配合的運動。Barre結合了芭蕾舞，Pilates 和Yoga，是一項節奏輕快的帶氧運動。 藉著靜態的伸展，及輕度重量訓練，Barre 也能達致一定的瘦身效果。
TITIKA had a collaboration with the famous Singapore barre studio, WeBarre in the past month.Barre is a combination of postures inspired by ballet and other disciplines like yoga and Pilates. Most of the poses requires holding your body still while you contract a specific set of muscle. The barre is used as a prop to balance while doing exercises that focus on strength training. Barre is a dance-inspired exercise combined with music and elegant posture!
每位參與的成員都獲得一件TIITKA TANK 和 Goodie Bag！Everyone can have a free goodie bag and TITIKA tank!
TITIKA 也藉此與Webarre 的 Director, Hairin Bahren 淺談Barre 這項運動的特色和風氣。

Q2．什麼原因促使你開Webarre？為什麼選擇香港開分店？Any reason that drove you to open a barre studio? Why Hong Kong？
我是很熱愛舞蹈和音樂的，十年前我在紐約接觸到Barre就愛上了！香港是一個冷漠又繁忙的都市，我們希望WeBarre能成為大家休息和放鬆的地帶！
I was first introduced to barre 10 years ago when I was living in NYC and have practiced it since. I’m a dancer at heart, LOVE music and was hooked on barre from my very first class! Hong Kong can be a lonely and stressful city and we wanted to offer an oasis in the middle if this bustling city where people can work out, unwind and make friends!
WeBarre 設在中環，溫和的日光讓人非常放鬆。WeBarre locate in Central. The natural sun light make this place really cozy and relaxing.
Q3· 初初在香港開業最大的困難是什麼呢？ What is the biggest challenge when you first bring WeBarre to Hong Kong?
