From the reviews

My favorite pole studio through the LA/OC area (and I have been to many of them!). Owner and instructors are friendly and helpful. This is a boutique studio, no worries class getting canceled once you registered. For pole classes, they have 3 poles and maximum class capacity is 6 people, so it can get crowded.

My first intro to pole class in Cali since my move and Paloma was super welcoming and supportive She guided me with steps to do the movements with my level and also pushed me to try and challenge myself.

Can’t believe I never reviewed this place years ago. This place was my introduction to my pole journey and the owner Leticia was phenomenal and she’s so kind. The plethora of classes they offer is great as well. Was looking into getting back into my journey after so long of a hiatus.

★★★★★ — Anna, Oct 2025

The owner is a talented and patient instructor. There are various class options like stretching classes, heels classes, floor work, etc. The studio is not only a great creative space, but it's also quaint and inviting!

Your first pole class at Embrace Dance Studios {MBRZ}

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.
