Pure Barre coming to Vernon Hills

Pure Barre is planning to open its lift, tone and burn exercise concept to Vernon Hills this winter.

Pure Barre signed a 5-year lease in The Hawthorn Hills Square Shopping Center, 700 N. Milwaukee Ave. The business will occupy 2,200 square feet at The Hawthorn Hills Square's shopping center. Pure Barre is a low impact, intense total body workout, the company said. The brand has more than 450 studios, including suburban locations in Elmhurst, Geneva, Kildeer, Naperville, Wheaton and Willowbrook.

"We are so excited to join the community and share our passion for Pure Barre," said Vernon Hills co-owner Sarah Diol. "We can't wait to open."

The studio is located next to Dick's Sporting Goods, in the southwest corner of the shopping center.

"We are thrilled to be part of the mix at The Hawthorn Hills Square Shopping Center, where our clients will find great shopping, healthy restaurants, and hopefully their new favorite workout obsession," co-owner Faith Anne Wade said.
