From the reviews

I love Pole Play classes! Honestly the hardest workout in the most fun environment. I amazed myself with what I was able to accomplish in this class, strength I never knew I had. Chelsea is an awesome instructor never once did I feel intimidated or inadequate she constantly encourages you to push yourself.

★★★★★ — Melissa, Aug 2017

Chelsea is an amazing instructor. She is really encouraging to people of all levels and makes an effort to help promote a fun-first attitude in class. She works with students to help them achieve their individual goals and gain measurable progress.

★★★★★ — A., Oct 2017

I cannot say enough good things about Pole Play! I spent about 2 years taking both boot camp and lessons. I started when my son was 8 months old! First, there is no judgment, Chelsea (owner), helps everyone to find their sexy. It is a major self esteem booster!

★★★★★ — Ashlie, Aug 2017

I have been at the studio for a couple years now, and this is the most I have ever stayed at a fitness studio/classes ever. The community is amazing- completely open and judgement free. It’s a unique way to work out & you really do see progress in both confidence and strength.

Your first pole class at Pole, Barre and Fitness 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.
