MCDF has been such an incredible place to learn this craft. It is fun, yet safe, and the comfort level, as well as the fitness level of every student is taken into account on an individual basis to make the learning experience as fun and easy as possible.

I have been attending MCDF pole for an year now. My time here has been nothing but amazing. Jenni is very knowledgeable and professional. She breaks down the tricks. So you have better understanding. Jenni is amazing, professional and you will so much fun take her classes. I 100% recommended anyone to take up pole.

★★★★★ — Nykia, Mar 2022

I can’t recommend MCDF enough. I am always in such a great mood after leaving class, it feels like a family to me. Jenni, the owner, is not only an amazing instructor but has become such a great friend to me as well. All the instructors are super talented, and keep our safety the number one priority.

★★★★★ — Koreena, Mar 2022

I have been attending private lessons for about 5 years now and absolutely love my time with Mill City Dance Fitness. I always have a blast and have learned so many things about my body and what it's really capable of.

Your first pole class at MCDF Pole

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.
