Open to all students! No experience necessary! Cross training is extremely important for both injury prevention and maximizing your skills in your pole dancing classes!
Beg/Int Handstands
This cross-training class starts with warmup and lots of conditioning drils that will get you ready for handstands and forearmstands. This class is accessible for all levels as progressions will be given (beginners welcome!) but is faster-paced and some students may be working on kicking up to the wall or balancing away from it.
Handstands are amazing conditioning for pole because it works on overhead pushing (which is often neglected in beginner pole training but becomes super important later on)! Balancing your pushing and pulling also prevents injuries!
Flexibility
Have you ever tried to get your splits by sitting in them for several minutes a day? PLEASE STOP! Our flex classes center active flexibility, which involves strengthening the proper muscles to support the bendy positions you dream of, and making you stronger AND more flexible at the same time.
We offer beginner flexibility, all levels flexibility, and int/adv flexibility. Students should have some experience training active flexibility before taking int/adv.
Pole Conditioning
This all levels conditioning class will combine on and off the pole drills to build the strength you need to take your pole skills to the next level! Only offered in-studio.
Strength and Conditioning
This strength-based class is offered online via Zoom to help you strengthen your pole skills and prevent muscle imbalances. No pole required.
Success In your first Pole Dancing Class
Congrats on signing up for your first pole dance class! Starting something new can be intimidating, but also exciting! We’re proud of you for making the commitment to getting started!
The key to success in your first class is having an open mind. We often describe pole classes as failing together and laughing about it while cheering each other on.
Each level encompasses a range of skill levels, so it’s possible that your first class will include students with more experience. Please note that this class is just as much for you as it is for them!
