From the reviews

OMG - TAKE ME BACK!! This studio was beautifully designed with intentional affirmations and top tier service!! This studio was clean and full of natural light which made the experience for inviting and welcoming.

I've been to Equilibrium a few times now since they've reopened under new ownership. When I attended the grand opening and knew I wanted to come back! It was nice to be able to preview a few different classes for free and get a feel for the space.

★★★★★ — Dominique, Dec 2024

The space is beautiful and all the staff are so helpful and supportive. At the start of my first two classes the instructors greeted me like a friend they hadn't seen in a while. I'm not a big class person. More of a "run a long time by myself" person, but I really enjoyed aerial yoga and the community.

★★★★★ — José, Jan 2025

Although a bit nervous to try, we booked a private pole dancing class for our friend’s birthday with Dee. She was a pleasure to speak to prior to attending the class, paying attention to details like our birthday girl’s favorite color for lighting and song for dancing. She was just as welcoming and lovely in person.

Your first pole class at Equilibrium Baltimore

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.
