From the reviews
My daughter has been attending classes at the Graceful Planet for over 10 years, and I can confidently attest to the high-quality training, supportive environment, and lasting impact this studio provides.
The Graceful Planet has been a huge part of my daughter’s childhood for many years as a competitive dancer. She has had fun, gained confidence, built lasting friendships, and learned skills she will carry with her forever.
My daughter has been dancing at the Graceful Planet for the past 4 years. The teachers are so kind, patient, and truly care about each child’s individual growth. I’ve watched my daughter’s skills and confidence soar and the studio has really become her second home-it truly feels like a family!
We love Graceful Planet!! My daughter has been dancing here for six years and absolutely loves Miss Grace and all of the other teachers! They are so wonderful, patient and kind and believe in building self confidence and teamwork. We wouldn't go anywhere else!!
Your first pole class at Graceful Planet Studio of Dance / GPS Dance
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.
