Do I have to be a size 8 Olympic athlete to learn to pole dance?
No! You can be any size and any age (over 18) and have had no previous dance experience or do any other fitness training or exercise.
Do I have to have a lot of upper body strength to be a pole dancer?
No! You are actually a lot stronger than you think, if you are in doubt pop down to a taster session
How much does it cost?
From £100 for a full course, £30 an hour for one on one training, or just £10 to drop in to a taster session (Please contact Amber to book these sessions). Go to Prices/Dates for more info
What will I learn?
No striptease or anything like that is involved! By the end of the beginners course you will be climbing the pole and going upside down with confidence and ease. Also you will learn a tailor made routine to show off to your friends! By the end of the advanced course you will be able to do complex leg holds, single arm moves and handstands onto the pole with confidence and ease, you will also learn an advanced routine suited to your own style of dancing.
When can I come?
Call us and we will find a time to suit you and your friends so you don’t have to worry about work, childcare or other commitments.
What if I’m nervous?
Don’t worry every one you learn with will feel exactly the same. Some moves you won’t get straight the way and others you will get first time, everyone is different. Your teacher is trained, the club is insured and it’s not as scary as you think! (Plus there’s always the bar for a bit of Dutch courage!)
What should I wear?
Small Shorts / Hot pants and t-shirt with high heeled shoes or boots. –Please don’t wear anything on your legs as you will slip or your jimmy choo’s / manolo’s as they may scuff!! Remember no striptease is involved this is an fitness work out.
How beneficial is it for fitness?
Have you ever seen an unfit professional pole dancer? It is great consistent exercise for all of the body especially arms, bums and tums. You are looking to burn off at least 250 calories in one session without even realising. You will physically notice your strength improve as you get through the course.
Who actually does pole dancing lessons?
Students, Mums, Hairdressers, Doctors, Friends, Work buddies, people of all ages and YOU!
So I really think I want to do it but I’m still a bit unsure, what should I do now?
Contact Amber to book a taster session, its only £10! There you can meet the teacher, ask any questions you may have, see a routine demonstration of what you will learn if you sign up and learn a few moves yourself. It's the best way to really see how much fun you will be having!!
