I've been a part of the Positive Spin community for about a year and a half and it's been so wonderful, affirming, and fun. This is a fantastic place to learn pole and flex and aligns so well with my values. I have become so much more comfortable with my queer identity since joining Positive Spin.
I love Raven. I love that they honor the roots of pole (y’all pole dance comes from sex workers)! The instructors are all so passionate about pole and love to see folks do well.
Our group had a private birthday party hosted at this location. Oksana, our instructor, was amazing and led us through a beginner class with an excellent warm-up that led into some fun inversion work. She was great at carefully breaking down each movement into easy-to-understand instructions.
