From the reviews
Omg it was alot of fun. Instructor Ashley was fun and helped us try so many moves! I really enjoyed our time there will def recommend and I look forward to taking more classes
I came here for my bachelorette party and am so thankful I did!!!!! Tianee was our instructor, and she was literally perfect lol. She was so fun, helpful, and made learning very easy and enjoyable the entire time. She made amazing conversation and every single person in my group loved the experience.
We did a pole dance party for my sister’s bachelorette party and it was SO FUN. Our instructor was so friendly and made everyone feel super comfortable. By the end everyone knew multiple different spins and we got some time to free style. She even offered to take photos for our group at the end.
I went to Candy Canes for a fundraiser/girls night party. At first I thought "they are selling a lot of tickets, how will they accommodate all the ladies." No worries. They have 8 poles and another mirrored room. The place has great atmosphere. I had an absolute BLAST!
Bachelorette & private parties at CANDYCANE DANCE STUDIOS
CANDYCANE DANCE STUDIOS comes up for private parties, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 CANDYCANE DANCE STUDIOS
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.
