FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ARE CLASSES RUN IN COURSES OR POP IN CASUAL CLASSES?

We run 4 x 10 week terms per year and in these all classes are run as courses. In between each term we have 2 weeks of workshops in styles not on our regular timetable, these workshops are pop in casual classes.

HOW MUCH ARE CLASSES?

We are the most reasonably priced pole studio around. We use a sliding scale for prices which reduce when you do multiple classes.

Casual classes are $25 per 1hr class, $35 per 1.5hr class.

Courses start at $22 for 1 class a week, your second class goes down to $20, 3rd class down to $18 and fourth class or more down to $15 a week.

DO YOU NEED TO PAY FOR THE TERM UPFRONT?

No you don’t. We understand the cost of living crisis so we have very flexible payment options. A $50 deposit is required to secure your place in a term course. You can then decide how you would like to pay if off. You can direct deposit weekly, make part payments throughout the term (which helps with pay cycles) or pay the full amount. We are very happy to discuss individual payment options with each student.

WHAT DO I WEAR TO MY FIRST EVER POLE CLASS?

You will need your skin to grip the pole so we suggest shorts or bike pants and a t shirt or singlet. You can wear loose pants and jumper over the top for warmup. Please bring a water bottle and a hand towel. Shoes are optional and most beginners dance in bare feet and we ask you not to use hand or body moisturiser the day of your class.

DO I NEED TO HAVE A CERTIAN LEVEL OF FITNESS TO START POLE CLASSES?

No you don’t. The course is designed to help you build up your strength so no prior fitness/experience is required to start, just a great attitude.

I’M COMING FROM ANOTHER STUDIO, CAN I CHOOSE WHAT LEVEL I THINK I SHOULD BE IN?

On the class description there are guidelines for levels however we offer free level assessments to all students wishing to join us as programs between studios can vary so much.

IS THE STUDIO ONLY OPEN FOR CLASSES OR ARE THERE PRACTICE TIMES AVAILABLE?

Practice times are available Monday 1pm to 6pm, Tuesday 1pm to 5pm, Wednesday 8am to 1pm and 2pm - 5pm, Thursday 2pm - 5pm and all weekend. You can book the studio at any time between these hours for just $10.

DO YOU DO END OF TERM PERFORMANCES AND ARE THEY COMPULSARY?

We do end of term showcases for students who wish to participate. We can do in house nightly showcases and whole studio showcases using one of our “sister” studios at a nearby suburb, depending on what the students want. Performing at these is completely optional.

IS POLE ONLY FOR YOUNG AND FIT PEOPLE?

Pole is for any age and any level of fitness. When you start at beginners, you will be taught in a way that develops and strengthens the correct muscles enabling you to gain strength, flexibility and fitness. Age is no barrier and we pride ourselves on having many students across all ages from 16 through to 65!
