Intro To Pole
Please note our Tuesday beginner is for those students that have been taking class for at least 2 months as we are working on inverts and invert preps in that class.
Max 12 students – Register Here
This class is for our beginners and those that are still working on getting off the floor. Each class will consist of a warm up and choreography for about 20 minutes then we will work on a mixture of spins and tricks. Some examples we will be working on are climbs, various spins and a variety of other tricks to gain strength. We will also add different types of exercises using the pole to help gain strength. The class will end with a cool down and time for questions on anything that we learned. Common misconceptions that we hear are “I don’t have any upper body strength! or Im not strong enough” Don’t worry none of us started out with a strong upper body. You will gain that and not even realize it because of the amount of fun you will be having. Also a lot of pole is about weight distribution and not just strength. Give us a month to show you that you can become strong, sexy and fit!! And all while laughing and having fun.
Advanced Pole Classes Must Be Pre apporved by Instructor
This class is geared towards those that have a pretty good invert and are working on more advanced moves from the floor. This class will work on the butterfly, outside leg hangs, body twists and leg switches just to name a few of the tricks. Our Advanced class is for those that have a good strong invert as well as an aerial invert. This allows for working on more advanced moves in the air and where we learn to fly! This class is where you build your strength and push your body to do things you never thought were possible all in a safe and supportive atmosphere.
Intermediate Level Classes – Must be APRROVED by an Instructor
This class is geared towards getting you upside down and on to our intermediate level. This class will focus on different skills to help you get upside down in a safe way. We will work on drills and different moves to help you gain strength to feel confident inverting. Also geared towards those advanced students looking to clean up their tricks. If you have taken our beginner class and feel that you are ready to move up please contact us. We can do an evaluation for you before or after class.
