Wonderful experience. She provides multiple opportunities to develop your skills and to perform. Skylark studios’s owner, April, has turned her classes into a wonderful community. If you want to become a performer, learn a new skill, be healthier, and make new friends, skylark studios is where you want to go!

★★★★★ — Shawn, Jul 2021

Skylark Studios is a great place to learn or hone a new skill. I have been practicing there for 3 years. I started by taking an aerial yoga class and quickly learned i have no core or upper body strength to speak of, so I continued with conditioning classes for 2 years (mainly because it was a great workout), until…

★★★★★ — Kimberly, Sep 2025

I have been a student of April’s for over a year now. She is knowledgeable and professional in in her practice. Safety is her number one priority and she takes pride in her studio being safe and accessible for all her students while having fun!

★★★★★ — Jessica, Feb 2021

Stumbled upon skylark while looking for another class to round out my aerial training. I really enjoy the atmosphere and ambience. The sky dancing sling class gives me an opportunity to be more fluid in my aerial training.

Your first pole class at Skylark Studios

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.
