Dance studio mirrors...
Continental manufactures posture mirrors and ballet barres. This equipment is used in dedicated dance studios, gymnastics centres and sports halls for posture practice and exercise.

Self-installation is possible, but our trained Continental fitters are able to install the equipment in your facility to ensure a distortion-free image across the wall of mirrors.

If you are looking for mirrors and ballet barre for a new dance studio, fitness suite or aerobics studio and you are also looking for the best quality solid timber flooring systems available, then look no further. Continental and Junckers have teamed up to bring you a one stop shop for all your needs.

Posture mirrors and ballet barre - for dance studios / fitness suites and gymnastic facilities

Ref:200B - Posture mirrors. Each mirror is 2m high x 1m wide. The mirror is constructed from 6mm silvered float glass laminated to a bi-axially oriented 60 micron thick polypropylene safety film coated with clear acrylic adhesive to conform to BS 6206B. The mirrors are mounted onto a cushioned soft wood timber frame which is bolted to the wall.

The mirrors are typically mounted approximately 40-50mm above any skirting. If there is no skirting, then they are typically mounted 100mm or so above the floor. This gap ensures that collisions between mechanical floor cleaning machinery and the mirrors are avoided.

We would strongly recommend installation of the mirrors by our in-house engineers as achieving a distortion free image across a run of mirrors is a very skillful job. The risk of others installing our mirrors, or the risk of trying to achieve a similar effect without using a cushioned framework is that you are likely to end up with an image that is distorted (e.g a "house of mirrors" effect) or the image may "jump" between the different mirror panels rather than being a smooth transition from mirror to mirror.

Ref:200A - Ballet barre with supports. Barre manufactured from 48mm diameter Colombian Pine, sanded, lacquered and mounted on epoxy powder coated support brackets.

Options include:

  • Single level ballet barre
  • Double level ballet barre - two runs of ballet barre set at different heights suitable for senior and junior use
  • Wall mounted - wall mounts are located at intervals between the mirrors. This necessitates a small gap between each of the mirrors (as in the illustration)
  • Floor mounted - floor mounts are used to support the ballet barre. This enables the mirrors to be installed with minimal gaps, resulting in a continuous distortion free image.

Portable freestanding ballet barre

Ref:200C- Portable freestanding ballet barre.

This simple and flexible ballet barre system permits the use of ballet barre in rooms that cannot have permanently installed ballet barre - for example multi-use rooms, private homes, general classrooms and anywhere where casual use of ballet barre is required.

Available with standard bases and three different barre units:

  • single height
  • dual height
  • double sided

The barre is manufactured from exactly the same high quality 48mm diameter Colombian Pine that we use for our permanent barre. The timber is given several coats of hard wearing polyurethane lacquer to provide an attractive hard-wearing durable finish. Each barre is 2m long.

The base legs and brackets are manufactured from epoxy powder coated steel in dove grey (for larger orders or for additional charge other colours are avaialable).

Base legs feature non-marking rubber feet to ensure the barre remains strudy on the floor and does not mark polished timber floors.

The bases feature nylon thumbscrews to hold the adjustable height brackets in place.

Portable ballet barre is supplied in flat pack form and requires the barre to be screw fixed to the brackets using the provided screws.
