From the reviews
The owner is very mindful and forth right. She's a great coach. I see negative reviews from people that have NEVER attended this place of business rather they feel it's their social justice warrior responsibility to post negative reviews based on a time when the owner disagreed with glorifying the adult entertainment…
I get my butt kicked twice a week by this woman. It is a challenge for me, and I love it because dancing has always come easy. The jokes are all inappropriately wonderful, as to be expected when your business end is upside down on a pole. All the other students have been so supportive and helpful.
I have a small dance background and have always wanted to try pole work. Goodness- I couldn’t be happier at Goddess! Here we are 19 months later. Friends outside of pole have complimented my arms (toning and definition), I have a place to let my hair down because we leave judgement at the door, and I’ve been safely…
I've attended this goddess studio on two occasions - both were boot camps. I was pleasantly impressed with how consistent the staff are from one studio to another with the goddess company as I have been attending the one in Hanahan. Each studio certainly has it's own energy and charm.
Bachelorette & private parties at Goddess Dance Studio
Goddess Dance Studio 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 Goddess Dance 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.
