I Love this studio! The teachers are warm and friendly and offer options for every level. There are many types of classes from conditioning to stretching, beginner to advanced.
I have tried out four different pole studios in the last year, and it's a no-brainer for me that Dakini comes out on top. From the overall studio vibe to the diversity in instructors and students alike, the light-heartedness and humor sprinkled into classes, the class options for all levels, the supportive and…
Learning pole dancing and taking classes here has been very rewarding and freeing for me. It is hard work, but as you go along your journey you will be amazed at your progression. I have been taking Beginner 1 with Kelly and she is an amazing teacher. I cannot say enough good things about her.
Your first pole class at Dakini Movement Studio
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.
