We offer exciting, unique and stylized Pole Classes with our creative, masterful and proficient Pole Instructor, Victoria.  Victoria has been Poling and Teaching for years and has crafted a very special blend of her favorite Pole Genres: Pole Foundations, Pole Circuit-Mixed Levels, Pole for Performance, Sensual Pole Dance and Stylized Pole Dance. 

$129 Unlimited Membership Plus Pole

Our Pole Foundations is designed to start with fundamental movements such as walking, turning, basic grip and hand placement, spins, and building from there. A great place to start for an absolute beginner!

Pole Circuit-Mixed Levels: Each pole will be dedicated to working on different aspects of your pole skills. Students will rotate around the room working on holds, spin combos, conditioning, new tricks, static rotations, climbs, sits, laybacks, inverts etc.

Pole For Performance-*Instructor Approval: Gain the confidence you need to perform or take your performance skills to the next level! First half is instructor guided. We’ll be learning how to build combos and choreography, taking on freestyle challenges, and finding our stage persona. Second half is instructor supported. This is your time to work out that combo in your head, work with your footwear or costume, play with props, request songs to dance to, and have help working out that new pole shape! *You need Instructor Approval to sign up for this class

Sensual Pole Dance-Mixed Level: Each month we will be working on a new pole dance choreography built to embrace the sensual nature of pole.

Stylized Pole Dance-Mixed Level: Each month we will be working on a new pole dance choreography to introduce you to a different style or flavor of pole dance. Hard style, contemporary, strip plastique, Latin, floor work, low flow, burlesque, edge work, etc.
