HOW TO GET STARTED
POLE & AERIAL Casual classes
Casual classes focus on different areas such as dance, flexibility, or strength, and are suited to all levels, including beginners! This is the perfect way to get a taste of what pole dancing or lyra is all about and you can start any time. It’s also flexible for people with changing schedules - you can sign up for classes that fit around your lifestyle!
POLE & AERIAL Courses
Our courses run for 1 hour per week over an 8 week period. These classes are designed to teach new lyra and pole skills with a focus on tricks, strength, flexibility, and dance. Courses are divided into different levels from beginner to elite, so you will be placed in a course with other girls at a similar level to you. The courses are designed to build on skills throughout the term, allowing students to move up to the next level when they are ready. Beginner and intermediate course students can start any time within the term.

What’s The Difference?
Static Vs. Spin Pole
You may have noticed - some poles are static, while other poles spin. All of 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! Spin pole requires a bit more strength and 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 awhile, or get dizzy easily, static pole can be a good place to start.
What to wear
Here’s the low-down on clothes and shoes from Cherie, our Richmond studio manager!
What to wear for
Pole Class
We recommend a singlet or t-shirt and shorts. Bare skin helps you stick to the pole, so shorts are highly recommended. You have the option to take the class barefoot or wear heels. Heels aren’t required, but they’re great way to make your workout more fun and sexy! Feel free to bring a pair of heels from home, or you can purchase some from our studio shops.
What to wear for
Lyra Class
The lyra hoop can be grippy, so it’s best to wear full length leggings and socks with a T-shirt or singlet.
