From the reviews
I have been taking classes with The Dollhouse for about 7 months. I remember my first class with Taylor Bartram. She asked us to move around the pole in a way that felt sexy in our body. I proceeded to stomp around the pole like a little pony feeling uncomfortable and disconnected from anything sexy or feminine.
I've spent a year in total with the dolls and the only regret I have is I wish I started when I was 20 years old, NOT 50! Omg! It's the best workout for your mind, body and soul. Soul because you're COMPLETELY supported with this community of students and teachers.
Just do it already! You want to feel strong, graceful, and beautiful in a safe and welcoming environment. This is it! Yes, even a guy can come here and have a wonderful experience. The teachers are exceptional and accommodating to all types of bodies and levels. You won't regret it!
Probably one of the best decisions I ever made was starting pole here at Dollhouse!! The studio has such a friendly and uplifting atmosphere. Love coming here to dance my heart (and clothes) away and to have a sexy af workout :)
Bachelorette & private parties at The Dollhouse Fitness
The Dollhouse Fitness 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 Dollhouse Fitness
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.
