What to Expect

First of all, pole fitness and dancing is not here to train you in your new profession as an exotic dancer! Of course the industry evolved out of that business, and will probably always carry a stigma, but in recent years, women of all ages and backgrounds have discovered the benefits of this workout.

The thought of attending your first class can be very intimidating, and most women ARE embarrased at first. But they quickly learn that pole fitness is the perfect workout to have fun and feel sexy about themselves again. Whether you are stuck behind a desk all day, or a fulltime taxi driver for your children, you will be amazed at the empowerment, stress relief and sensual feelings you will gain in pole fitness and dancing!

Is It Really a Workout?

From your first spin on a pole, you'll discover how much fun this workout is. And since you're having fun, you won't even realize that it is indeed, quite a tough workout. With various moves, spins, tricks and sexy play, you'll discover how your upper body and arms, core and leg muscles start to tone very quickly.

What Should I Wear?

Don't worry, there is no nudity in pole fitness! When you are first starting out, your regular gym or yoga clothing will be fine for classes. Wearing yoga pants for beginning classes is ok, but as you advance in moves, you will find more skin exposure necessary. A typical outfit for more advanced workouts are a sports bra and booty shorts.

For footwear, you should plan to be barefoot for your first few classes. High heeled shoes and boots may also be worn, but are not recommended until you've taken a few classes and are starting to control your movement around the pole. Wearing the heels does help engage the calf muscles during your workout, as well contribute to your sexy feeling. Boots also provide ankle and foot protection from the pole, and help to grip the pole better when climbing and doing inverted moves. The studio offers a line of workout clothing, shoes and boots that you may wear during classes.

Finally, do not to use lotions or oils before class, as that will make your pole slippery! We also ask you to limit jewelry and remove any rings during pole class to avoid scratching and nicking the poles.
