From the reviews

Just go. If you’re even slightly curious, GO. I’m a few months post partum and dealing with crippling anxiety. My friend encouraged me to take the class with her. I took away so much more than I ever expected. It’s an intimate class setting. Everyone is warm, open, no judgment whatsoever.

I had an amazing time dancing at Luxuriate Lab! I came in from out of state for some meetings and to meet some friends who I've successfully talked into trying pole dancing.

Luxuriate Lab is truly something special! I started with Nickoleta’s 6-week intro series and immediately felt a shift, not just physically but in how I connect with my body. I’ve since taken Unlocked: Low Flow Spin Pole and Luxuriate, and her approach is unlike anything else.

★★★★★ — Sabrina, Apr 2026

From the moment I stepped into Luxuriate Lab, I felt at home. The space is absolutely gorgeous and you can tell it is built with love by Nickoleta, the wonderful owner & her amazing team. I’ve had the pleasure of taking class with multiple instructors, both familiar and new, and each class has been an absolute delight.

Your first pole class at Luxuriate Lab

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: provided here — a little Dry Hands or iTac helps you stick, and knee pads make floorwork comfy. 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.
