New Students

I'M UNFIT AND UNCOORDINATED, AM I GOING TO BE OK TO START?

Absolutely! Our courses and classes are designed to get you fit and teach you how to dance and improve your coordination. You don't need any experience to join our courses and classes, just bring a positive attitude and we'll provide the rest!

CAN I TRY A CLASS BEFORE COMMITING TO AN 8-WEEK COURSE?

Definitely. Before you start a course, we highly recommend you purchase our 8 Class Intro Offer which will give you 10 classes for $99 to use over 21 days. It's a great way to get a taste of what our classes are like and what's involved. For more information about our Intro Offer visit our NEW DIVAS page.

I’VE DONE POLE OR AERIALS BEFORE, BUT NEVER AT POLE & AERIAL DIVAS. HOW DO I KNOW WHICH LEVEL I WILL BE IN?

We offer 30 minute gradings with one of our highly skilled pole or aerialist instructors in-studio for $40. This $40 is redeemable towards your membership sign up if you choose to become a Divas Member. We take gradings very seriously here at Divas so we want to make sure that you are in the most appropriate level to execute and learn our syllabus that is safe for both yourself and instructor. For all grading bookings please contact your local studio today!

WHAT DO I WEAR FOR POLE, LYRA OR SILKS CLASS? ARE HEELS COMPULSORY?

POLE - Heels are not compulsory in our pole courses or classes, but we highly recommend them! If you decide to wear heels, they do not need to be our pole dancing stilettos, any heels that make you feel sexy and confident are perfect! Shorts and singlet or t-shirt is perfect for your first pole class. Watch our What to Wear video to find out more.
LYRA or SILKS - For aerials please wear a pair of full length leggings with socks, singlet or t-shirt!

How old do I need to be to attend classes at Divas?

Our standard classes are for women aged 17+. If you are under the age of 17, some of our locations run teen classes (Mornington, Caroline Springs & Ringwood) please contact them directly to discuss options.

CAN I DO MORE THAN ONE COURSE PER TERM?

Absolutely! We encourage our students to spend as much time on their chosen apparatus as possible and taking 2 courses in a term is a great way to reach your fitness & skill goals faster.   Our 2 Class Per Week Membership option is the most popular.  Check out our PRICING page for further information.

I'M MALE, CAN I TAKE CLASSES AT POLE AND AERIAL DIVAS?

We are a women-only space, and our group classes are for people who identify as women. However, men are welcome in private lessons and private functions. Please contact your local studio for further information on these.

What is the difference between static and spin pole?

You may have noticed - some poles are static, while other poles spin. All our poles can be adjusted between static and spin, depending on the class and your preference. Static poles are fixed and don't move, whereas spin poles pivot around themselves, providing a great 360 degree view of any trick! Static pole requires you to create momentum to spin around it, and spin pole requires a more control to ensure the pole doesn’t spin too fast! If you’re brand new to pole dancing, try both static and spin to see what you like best! If you are unsure, haven’t done fitness for a while, or get dizzy easily, static pole can be a good place to start.

WILL I HAVE TO SHARE MY POLE, LYRA OR SILK?

No. We have a one student per apparatus policy, to give you maximum time during class to master the new tricks you learn! 

Do you run classes for kids or teens?

Yes! You will find Little Divas at Caroline Springs and Ringwood. For more information click here for more information and contact the studio directly for class schedules.
