From the reviews
Great studio and community! I went to this studio for half a decade before moving cities and I loved every minute! The coaches know what they’re talking about and place strength and form above all else. I became very strong over a short period of time thanks to their careful techniques and 1:1 coaching.
This is where I learned static trapeze, silks, rope and Lyra. It's a fun hobby and gives you an amazing workout
Very relaxed atmosphere and friendly coaches that interact and support you every minute. Really fun experience! I'm definitely signing up for some classes!
Love doing classes here! The teachers are great at meeting you where you are at.
Your first pole class at Bumbershoot Aerial 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.
