From the reviews

Alex’s classes are amazing! I love the music and the creativity of the flows, and Ive never had a yoga class help my sciatica issues as much as his. Everyone who works here is so kind and welcoming - highly recommend this studio.

Freebird is such a special place <3 I’ve taken yin, Freebird flow, restorative, gentle, ariel and electric yoga classes here and enjoyed them all. Electric is my fav. It is intense! Heated, involves jumping for cardio, at times resistance bands and lifting a 10 lb booster etc.

★★★★★ — Molly, Aug 2025

This Yoga Studio had changed my life. It gave me the tools to regulate my nervous system and I’m no longer in a constant state of destress. Even if I’m having a rough day I know that if I can make it to an electric flow class my worries will be washed away. For the first time in my life I found peace.

★★★★★ — Reese, Mar 2023

Took a pole dancing class here and will 100% be back! The instructor was so incredibly patient, sweet, and soo encouraging. I did some cool pole moves i never thought my body could do. It was an awesome workout as well, my muscles are really sore! It's an awesome form of strength training/conditioning.

Your first pole class at Freebird Yoga 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.

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.
