Dance FAQs
What will classes be like?
All classes begin with a warm up designed to increase your flexibility and strength and also to start introducing different moves vital to the class you are taking. After the warm up, your instructor will guide you through the different dance moves involved in your class. Everyone moves at their own pace. We strive to provide a fun and supportive class environment.
Who attends these classes? Am I too old?
EVERYONE is attending these classes. From school teachers to professionals, mothers, and grandmothers! We welcome and teach women of all ages and sizes. No one is too old to take our classes!
What do I wear to class/What do I bring?
Wear something comfortable to class that you can move in (yoga pants, work out clothes, etc,) You will probably be most comfortable in pants in our exotic classes as we are on the floor some. As you progress through the pole classes you will find that shorts are vital as you need skin to grip the pole. For the first class, bring a positive and open attitude. Your instructor will tell you if you need to bring anything to class with you as you progress.
I am not a dancer/I’m not coordinated/can I still take these classes?
YES! Our classes are designed for everyday women and everyone moves at their own pace with the guidance of our qualified instructors. The owner of this studio strongly believes ALL women possess the ability to do this style of dance as she is not a classically trained dancer either.
Can I observe a class before I sign up?
Because of our commitment to provide our students with a private environment to learn this style of dance we are unable to allow spectators at any time. However, we offer periodic open houses that include a free demo class that you can try. You can also sign up for the Teaser workshop to see if exotic/pole is something you’d enjoy before committing to a series of classes.
What size are the classes?
Pole classes are limited to 9 women. Exotic classes are limited to 12 women. Workshops may be slightly bigger (15 women). We strive to keep the classes fairly small so everyone gets personalized attention.
Do you offer private lessons/parties?
Yes. We offer both private lessons and private parties for special occasions. Private lessons start at $60 for one person for an hour (the price per person goes down if you have more than one woman participating). Parties start at $175 for an hour and a half of instruction for up to 5 women.
What types of payment do you accept? Do I pay for my class ahead of time?
We accept cash, check, Visa, Master Card, and Discover. Payment for classes, workshops, or parties guarantees your spot in that class, so payment ahead of time is required. Sometimes there are a few spots left in a class and those that show up on class day may be allowed in if there is space.
What is your refund policy?
Because our classes are small and payment guarantees your spot (and thus, we may be turning other women away because a class is full) we do not issue refunds. However, if you call the studio 24 hours before the start of your class or workshop a studio credit may be issued to be utilized for another class, workshop, private lesson, merchandise, etc.
