# Pure Barre’s Fall Fit Challenge Returns to Build Stronger Habits One Class at a Time

## Story

Rooted in the “3-3-3” rule of habit formation - three days to break a barrier, three weeks to build a habit, and three months to change a lifestyle - the Fall Fit Challenge supports a 60-day period. By committing to 30 classes, participants follow a structured habit-building process, potentially helping routine formation as the year progresses. For years, fitness culture has celebrated ‘no pain, no gain,’ but building a lasting routine isn’t about how hard you can push yourself once. It’s about continuing to show up.

“The Fall Fit Challenge keeps me feeling strong, motivated, and empowered through the fall months,” says Abigail Gurcsik, returning Fall Fit Challenge Pure Barre member. “I love holding myself accountable and continually inspiring myself & those around me to prioritize our fitness goals, stay consistent, build core strength, and keep showing up for ourselves—no matter the season. Will it be hard? Yes! But good thing you can do hard things.”

Getting back into a routine can be difficult, but Pure Barre’s wide variety of low-impact, full-body group fitness class formats eliminates monotony and encourages community. Participants can choose among five class formats – Classic, Empower, Align, Define, and Reform – throughout the challenge, providing a new, musically led boutique experience each visit. Instructors who are energetic and motivating support participants in pursuing a healthier lifestyle by participating in the Fall Fit Challenge.

“It’s so inspiring to see how much life has happened by September, and see people’s spark reignite this time of the year,” says Michelle Ditto, Pure Barre’s Vice President of Training and Technique. “You can make a huge difference in how you feel and how you physically experience the rest of the year. Will it be hard? Yes! But good thing you can do hard things.”

In 2025, 41,695 people participated in studios across the country. One reason members choose Pure Barre is the community, and this year, participants are encouraged to lean into the national community by posting photos throughout the challenge and using the hashtag #FallFitChallenge. Participants will continue to be cheered on throughout the challenge on the Pure Barre app, where progress is tracked and milestones are celebrated.
