Barre workouts are derived from ballet positions and movements, and focus on small, precise motions that emphasize alignment and core strength. Most of the movements are done while holding the body still during specific, targeted exercises. The workouts have expanded over the years to include other disciplines, including cardio and weightlifting.
Aside from dance studios, barre workouts are offered in gyms and fitness centers, including Pure Barre – a barre studio franchise with over 600 locations. Clearly, many people are attracted to the barre method and the results they get from these workouts. However, a gym can also be the source of serious injury to those on the premises. Slip and fall accidents are very common at exercise facilities, along with trip and falls. Lack of security can also lead to incidents of physical assault and sexual assault.
If you suffered an injury due to a dangerous condition at a Pure Barre studio, you may be eligible for monetary compensation from an accident claim. Learning about your legal rights is the first and most important step in the legal process, which we can help you with here at Normandie Law Firm. Contact us today to schedule a free case review with a Pure Barre studio gym accident injury lawyer.
Can I Sue for Injuries at a Pure Barre Studio?
Being involved in an accident on someone else’s property may give you the right to take legal action against the property owner. However, you will need to prove the following elements in order to file a personal injury claim:
- You were owed a duty of care by the owner as someone that had a right to be on the property.
- While you were on the premises, there was a dangerous condition that caused you to be injured.
- The existence of the condition that caused your accident was due to the owner’s negligence.
- You suffered monetary losses as a result of your injuries, which entitles you to compensation from the property owner.
It’s important to note that some degree of injury is always possible when you are working out. Thus, a strained muscle during a barre session isn’t indicative of a business owner’s negligence. On the other hand, a slippery floor from leaking pipes is something that the owner has to take care of. Pure Barre is also liable for assault on their customers if there were reasonable security measures that may have prevented the incident. Security measures include thorough screening of prospective employees to ensure that there are no previous incidents of violence.
All these are examples of the duty of care that Pure Barre has towards their guests and visitors. If you believe that a breach of duty by Pure Barre caused you to be injured, contact our office for a discussion on your rights and legal options.

Deadline to File a Gym Accident Injury Claim
Personal injury lawsuits in California generally have a deadline of two years, meaning you have 2 years starting from the accident date to file a compensation claim against Pure Barre. We recommend that you contact an experienced lawyer right away, as it can be very challenging to collect evidence and supporting documentation to prove your case. A gym injury accident attorney can also fight for the full value of your losses and ensure that you receive a fair amount of compensation. Keep in mind that you will lose the right to sue Pure Barre if you miss the 2-year deadline. Our attorneys are ready to take action on your behalf, so give us a call as soon as possible.
How Much can I Receive from a Lawsuit?
Many claimants ask us for an average case value, based on our previous experience with lawsuits against gyms and exercise studios. But case values are determined by many issues that we will examine after a thorough investigation into your accident. If we had to provide an estimate range of values, we would say that the majority of slip and fall cases are worth around $150,000 to $2,000,000. For incidents of assault and battery, including sexual assault, case values tend to be higher. Even on the lower end, a sexual assault lawsuit may be settled for around $500,000. Depending on the extent of physical and emotional injuries to the victim, settlements of $1,500,000 and above are not unusual in these cases.
What is the Expected Timeframe to Settle my Case?
Major corporations like Pure Barre are very skilled at denying liability and finding ways to deny victims the compensation they deserve. That’s why victims of negligence by a business owner reach out to us on a daily basis. Our goal is to represent your interests and negotiate a settlement that reflects the level of harm you’ve suffered. This process can take around 6 to 10 months when the accident occurs on a commercial property.
If we are unable to resolve your case through private negotiations, we can proceed with a lawsuit and continue to work towards a settlement. At that point, it’s possible that your case will go to trial, but over 90% of lawsuits are settled with help from a court-appointed mediator. Due to the legal actions that may be involved, a personal injury lawsuit can take up to several years.

Injuries and workouts sometimes go together, even if you are at the peak of physical fitness. But there are certain conditions that you should not be exposed to at a fitness center. When a business owner is negligent in their duty of care and someone is injured as a result, the victim has the right to demand compensation under California’s premises liability laws.
