Directions

Before you go

Your first pole dance class

Is Pole Dance beginner-friendly?

Absolutely. Beginner Pole Dance classes are designed for people with zero experience. Your instructor will scale every move to your level, and you'll progress at your own pace. Everyone starts by learning the basics: how to grip the pole safely, simple spins, and foundational strength moves. It's challenging but very doable, and most beginners feel noticeably stronger within 3–4 weeks.

Do I need any prior dance or fitness experience to start Pole Dance?

No prior experience is needed. Pole Dance is taught to absolute beginners in every class. If you can walk and climb stairs, you have the basic strength to start. Some fitness background can help you progress faster, but it's not required. Many adult beginners come from completely different backgrounds and do brilliantly.

What should I wear to a Pole Dance class?

Wear shorts or leggings and a sleeveless top or sports bra so your skin can grip the pole. Avoid long sleeves or full-length trousers—the pole grips better on bare skin. Train barefoot or in grippy socks. Bring water and a small towel. Don't overthink it; focus on comfort and practicality rather than looking a certain way.
