From the reviews
I have been attending classes at Pole Factory for about 5 months. In those 5 months, I have taken classes from almost every instructor. I can say that while they all have different teaching styles, they all are spectacular teachers. They are knowledgeable, personable and really aim for each person to be successful.
This is truly one of the best dance studio in Milwaukee!! All of the teachers here are well versed in their craft, very open and accommodating to beginners, and have created an amazing community focused on the art of pole dance. If you’re looking to learn pole Pole factory MKE is the place to be!!!
Pole Factory is truly my SECOND home. A place where I am surrounded with genuine encouragement, laughter, intrigue & release of all I pick up throughout the day & have carried through the years.
Absolutely amazing!! I love all of the teachers and they each teach slightly differently so you can pick your style. There’s a variety of classes from 101 to dance/choreography to sensuality to strength, take your pick! The community is warm and welcoming. The space is very clean and so cute for recording yourself.
Bachelorette & private parties at Pole Factory MKE
Pole Factory MKE 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 Pole Factory MKE
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.
