From the reviews

The best decision I ever made for myself was to come to this studio for my physical and mental health. I am more on the curvier side and I was very self-conscious and hesitant at first, but it is such a welcoming and positive environment that you not only learn to embrace yourself, you feel your confidence grow as you…

So grateful and happy to be a member at Avant Aerial. I’ve been going regularly since the studio opened. Everyone (instructors, members & owner) are all so kind and supportive. Avant Aerial is a safe space to learn and grow, which is very important when learning these styles of dance.

★★★★★ — Hannah, Sep 2025

Avant- Aerial Studio is the best studio around. The owner Amanda and her instructors are extremely kind and make you feel safe and comfortable. I have social anxiety and can be extremely shy so finding a studio that feels like home where I am safe and free to be myself is top priority.

Your first pole class at Avant Aerial Studio

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.
