From the reviews
I've gone to several classes at Boston Pole Fitness over the past few years and they are a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend pole fitness as a fun and sexy workout.
I’ve always been a little interested in pole fitness. One night I was googling to see what kind of pole classes Boston had to offer just to *check it out*. I wasn’t ready to commit to actually trying it though.
I've taken two classes at the Brighton location and it's so fun. Claudia is a great teacher. I enjoy her class. Their website is great for beginners to navigate and understand. I signed up for the classes at my level (beginner) and know what classes I should take to progress.
If you’re looking to try something new or advance into the next level of pole fitness, whether you’re a beginner or not, BPF is definitely for you. Their instructors are amazing and supportive.
Your first pole class at Boston Pole Fitness - Allston
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: provided here — a little Dry Hands or iTac helps you stick, and knee pads make floorwork comfy. 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.
