From the reviews

If you are considering trying a class at Aerial Dance, do not be nervous and just go for it! Our party class event was a blast. The instructors were very professional and had our safety in mind at all times.

★★★★★ — Maria, Nov 2023

I love this place. This is the first aerial studio where I actually feel comfortable and welcomed. It’s adults only no kids, so I don’t feel out of place or pressured to be advanced off the bat. I’m a very shy person so I appreciate this place of making me feel I can be more outgoing and social.

★★★★★ — Precious, Jan 2025

I have been a member at Aerial Dance for many years and it is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I have become stronger and more confident than I ever thought possible. The instructors are amazing and my fellow students are so supportive.

★★★★★ — Veronica, Sep 2018

My daughter somehow learned about silks and an internet search led me here. We ended doing a birthday party for her and a couple of friends. I was a little worried because I didn’t know anything about silks and didn’t know if it was even something she was capable of doing. She ended up having a great time.

Bachelorette & private parties at Aerial Dance WI

Aerial Dance WI comes up for private parties, going by their listing and students’ reviews. A pole party is one of the most-booked ways to celebrate a bachelorette, birthday, or girls' night, and it's a blast even if nobody in the group has ever touched a pole. A few things worth asking when you reach out. First, group size and what's included — most studios run private parties for around 6–15 people with a dedicated instructor, a beginner-friendly routine, and time for photos. Second, the vibe you want — sassy heels-and-flow choreography, playful spins and tricks, or a mix; a good studio tailors it to the guest of honor. Third, booking and pricing — parties are usually a flat package booked in advance, and popular weekend slots fill up fast, so ask about deposits and what to wear (shorts for grip, no lotion). It's beginner-friendly by design, judgment-free, and genuinely fun — exactly the kind of thing everyone talks about afterward.

Your first pole class at Aerial Dance WI

Nervous about your first pole class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects total beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. You don't need to be strong, flexible, or thin to start — pole builds all of that, and your first class is about learning to spin, walk the pole, and hold on, not inverting on day one. What to expect: a warm-up, some conditioning, and a few basic spins or a short combo — it's a real full-body workout, so expect to sweat and to feel it in your arms and core the next day. Rest whenever you need to; no one is watching or judging. What to wear: shorts and a tank or sports bra — bare skin on your arms, legs, and stomach is what grips the pole, so save the leggings for aerial or floorwork. Skip the lotion the day of class; it makes the pole slippery. Grip aids: most studios keep grip liquid (Dry Hands / iTac) on hand, and knee pads make floorwork comfy — ask at the front desk. What to bring: water and a small towel. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet your instructor. It clicks fast — most people leave their first class already planning the next one.

Pole is for every body, and it's about strength, artistry, and confidence — not performing for anyone else. If you're pregnant or working around an injury, check with a doctor and let your instructor know so they can offer modifications.
