From the reviews
“I recently attended the exotic dance pole class with Sophia at The Femmely studio, and it was an incredible experience! Sophia is an amazing instructor—patient, encouraging, and makes you feel empowered throughout the entire class.
I almost don't want to write a review because this studio is Manhattan's best kept secret and I don't want it to get too crowded, lol. I started dancing here twice weekly in the high-heels beginner classes over the summer and love it - Marta is my favorite instructor but everyone I've taken class with so far has been…
Had the time of my life. I needed a series of private classes to create and practice a dance performance at my wedding. An unconventional request, especially coming from a man. The Femmily team not only were up to the challenge, but found me the most perfect instructor - Taya.
I recently took a frame up class at The Femmily, and I absolutely loved it! The instructors are amazing—super skilled, passionate, and really know how to make the class both fun and challenging.
Bachelorette & private parties at The Femmily
The Femmily 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 Femmily
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.
