From the reviews

I love this studio! I was stressed when I went to a pole party that I would be “too big” to be able to do it. Not only was I wrong, but I LOVED it! I ended up signing up for a membership that day and have been a member for the last 7 months. It has become my new favorite exercise.

★★★★★ — Sabrina, Jun 2023

Pole Fitness Studio is so amazing! I took classes there for only a short two months, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was made to feel right at home from the get-go, and it was such an amazing journey.

★★★★★ — Cassandra, Jun 2023

I have been to 4 Pole Fitness classes so far (Intro, 2 Pole 1, and Strength and Conditioning - which kicked my tail!) and I am so thankful I have continued! I have already booked tons more classes for weeks in the future after going from the 4 class drop in package to the 6 month membership!

★★★★★ — Chazney, May 2022

I started at Pole Fitness Studio 1 year ago and I love it! Last month, the studio came under new management; they have done an excellent job with the renovations and the studio looks amazing. The pricing is very affordable, better than any other studios I’ve seen and the community is great.

Your first pole class at Collective Movement: Pole, Aerial & Dance Fitness

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.
