No. You will naturally become stronger as you progress, unlocking more levels. You may discover muscles you didn’t even know you had and feel some post-workout aches after each session.

If you would like to supplement your pole class, cross-training and press-ups are a good option, but don’t overdo it. Overtraining can actually slow your progress.

Comfort is everything, and you definitely don't need any fancy gear to start. A simple sleeveless top and gym shorts, or your favourite pole wear, is perfect as you'll want some bare skin to help you grip the pole. Bring an outer layer like a hoodie or joggers to keep warm during the warm-up and cool-down, and a sports bra for a bit of extra support if you like. Bare feet or non-slip yoga socks are the best option for your feet, and you'll be good to go!

Please bring your own water and warm layers for the warm-up and cool-down. You might also like to bring a microfibre cloth or flannel to dry your hands and prevent slipping. If you are asthmatic, please bring your inhaler and let your instructor know where it is. Pole grip may be useful further down the line but, in the early days, training your grip strength without additional aids is recommended.

Yes. Please remove ALL rings, jewellery, and body piercings (that aren't covered by clothing), as well as accessories such as smartwatches and fitness trackers, that might come into contact with the pole. Facial and ear-piercing jewellery is okay. We want you to be able to move freely and safely, avoiding damage to both you and the poles.

Correct. To ensure everyone's safety and help you get the most out of your class, it's absolutely essential to arrive with clean, product-free skin. That means no moisturisers, oils, lotions, creams, or tanning products on the day of your class. For the best grip, we also recommend avoiding any non-essential moisturisers and lotions for 24 hours before your class.

You must be 18 or over to join our pole classes, though 16- and 17-year-olds are very welcome by special arrangement with written consent from a parent or guardian. We also love welcoming family members to the studio, so if you want to bring a parent or relative along with you, learning together is a fantastic way to share the fun!

Definitely not. Pole fitness is genuinely for every body and every stage of life. We have people at the studio in their 20s right through to their 70s and beyond, so you’ll be in great company.

Everyone works at their own pace in a friendly, supportive space, with zero pressure, but if you'd feel more comfortable giving it a go in a 1:1 private lesson before joining a group class, just drop me a message. We can easily arrange that for you.

Typically, two people share a pole unless you’re training 1:1 at the studio. In a class, that gives you a moment to rest, catch your breath, and cheer your pole buddy on. Cleaning spray and cloths are provided so you can give the pole a quick wipe down between turns.

If you are feeling unwell or under the weather on the day of your class, please stay home, rest up, and drop me a quick message to let me know.

All classes are booked and paid for in 4-week blocks that run simultaneously. Missed classes cannot be refunded or transferred to another day or block, which keeps things fair and consistent for everyone in the group.

If there are spaces left after block bookings close, a drop-in option may be offered. This can be handy if you know in advance that you'll miss two or more classes in a block, though spaces aren't guaranteed.

Please plan to arrive 5 minutes before your class start time so you can get settled. The warm-up is essential to keep you safe and prevent injury, so if you miss it, it is at the instructor's discretion whether you can still join in.

If you've only missed a tiny bit, you might be asked to do your own warm-up on the side before hopping on a pole, which isn't half as much fun as doing it together! If you miss too much of it, you won't be able to take part in that session.

Pole classes are booked in 4-week blocks directly through the Shop on our booking system.

NOTE: New blocks are released about a week before the current one ends, and you can find them by clicking on the Pole Fitness category.

If there are still spaces available once block bookings are wrapped up, single drop-in passes may also be released for individual sessions.

Check the Calendar for the next available private pole lesson, typically on a Saturday. Other days by arrangement.

Click to book, and you’ll be guided to create an account (or login). Choose a single pass, valid for two months, or save with a block of four to be redeemed within six months.

If you would like a reminder before your lesson, go to account settings and choose a notification option.

Before your first class, you'll just need to fill out a quick health and participation form (PARQ). It’s super straightforward and just helps make sure you can move safely.

If you have any injuries, medical conditions, or health concerns that might affect you during class, please check in with your doctor first, and feel free to pop me a message so I know how best to support you!
