Participants should wear fitness attire or any clothing in which they feel comfortable sweating and moving around freely. This includes but is not limited to t-shirts, shorts, spandex pants, sports bras, etc. Students may exercise in bare feet or indoor high-heel shoes.
How many people are there in a class?
For pole classes, it’s one to a pole, except for trials. For non-pole classes, we cater to a larger group depending on studio size.
How long will it take for me to accomplish a level?
Everyone is different. Some students take 8 weeks (1 full term of classes) to become confident with a group of pole moves, while others take months. You may progress faster if you come to class regularly and do pole practice sessions. Don’t feel bad if you can’t move up right away. We have all been there. Plenty of practice is important. Don’t rush yourself. Trying moves before you are ready can result in injury. Your instructor will be able to tell you when you are ready to move on to the next level.
