From the reviews

I started attending Ascend almost a year ago and my classes are what I look forward to the most every week. The teachers are wonderful and teach in a way that everyone in class can understand and have fun.

This place is magical. The classes are fun, challenging, and you don’t even realize you’re working out! The instructors are well trained, know how to work with students on any level, and care a lot about keeping everyone safe. I highly recommend taking a class, you’ll do things you never thought you could otherwise!

★★★★★ — Celina, Mar 2019

Even with a busy schedule, I took on aerial arts a year and a half ago. It’s completely changed my life and gave me a comfortable spot where I can relate to many. I feel at home when I’m in the studio and have learned and grown so much over the time. Best decision I ever made was to start classes here.

★★★★★ — Jill, Mar 2019

I cannot say enough good things about this place! It's become my second home and such a great outlet for me. It's affordable, with great teachers, and overall terrific gym. It honestly changed my life. 5 stars, definitely!!

Your first pole class at Ascend Flow Arts

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.
