From the reviews
My daughter started taking contortion and dance classes at Black and Yellow in February. In 5 short months she has gone from a shy girl shaking and crying before class because she was so nervous to getting up and performing in front of huge groups of strangers.
Liza is the best teacher! Very calm, strict and fun at the same time! My 8 year daughter loves to do zoom classes with Liza. Liza taught my daughter to stand up from bridge position just in one session, literally in 5 minutes👍👍👍 she explained techniques well enough for 8 year old to understand and follow instructions…
Mrs. Liza is great motivator with a great fun friendly personality. We have found this place during one of their classes in a park and my daughter observed for a bit and decided she wants to give a try. Surely she asked if she could join and loved it since.
Amazing classes for all ages! My son (6years old) loves to go to these classes, because they are more than just lessons, it’s a culture, a private club for girls and boys who loves dancing, stretching and movement in general! Liza helps them to reveal themselves in dance! Create your own style!
Bachelorette & private parties at Black & Yellow Dance and Circus School
Black & Yellow Dance and Circus School comes up for private parties — confirmed on their own site. 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 Black & Yellow Dance and Circus School
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.
