From the reviews
One of my FAVORITE Circus Arts studio for Rehersals for Twisted Circus 🎪 RÉFLEXIONS show Presented by Avenoir Arts-Lacy Rose. The Facility is super Clean,Professional, and a great Atmosphere. The Owner is a pleasure to be around and has impeccable Customer Service.
I LOVE this place! This is a safe and welcoming environment for those who do aerial sports. The instructors are passionate and enthusiastic about their sport. And the awesome thing is that owner is a professional videographer so you can get videos and photos of your routine.
I moved to The Artist’s Asylum as a pole instructor because of the environment. This studio is bright, upbeat, and fun! The owner is so happy and welcoming, encouraging all staff and students to grow and develop their skills. As an instructor, I am still always a student.
I’ve been coming to this studio for several years, and I truly can’t say enough good things about it. The instructors are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping every student grow whether you’re brand new or have been training for a long time.
Bachelorette & private parties at The Artists' Asylum
The Artists' Asylum 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 The Artists' Asylum
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.
