From the reviews

EDITED May2021: Just started my SECOND 16-week Fast Track Program with Kathleen! 1-on-1 sessions 3 times per week for 16 weeks, focusing on my specific goals and needs. I did it last summer and it was a game changer so I'm planning to make it an annual thing.

★★★★★ — Diana, May 2021

Found this place while planning a bachelorette trip to Asheville! Our instructor was Lindsay and she was absolutely amazing. We booked for the 90 minute pole class and were late due to traffic on the highway! She was nice and understanding and still let us stay extra to make up for the time.

★★★★★ — Miranda, Mar 2024

Danceclub Asheville is an amazing studio with a wide variety of classes, including pole, hip-hop, twerk, belly dancing, sexy chair dance, and more. I have been taking pole classes here for about 5 months now and couldn't be happier with my experience.

★★★★★ — Brooke, Oct 2018

I took about 4 months of classes in early 2022 (Beginner and Beginner I) with Ash. I had to stop due to scheduling but I loved Ash as an instructor, she was great at explaining moves and breaking it down in a very understandable way (those were the first dance classes of my life!

Bachelorette & private parties at DANCECLUB Asheville

DANCECLUB Asheville comes up for private parties — confirmed on their own site. 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 DANCECLUB Asheville

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.
