From the reviews
I always wanted to try pole dancing but wasn't brave enough. When I came to the year anniversary celebration of Tribe Dance & Pole studio, I got lucky and won in a raffle a 6 week Initiation Pole Dance series. Six weeks later after graduating from the first class I am signed up for another Level.
This studio is the perfect mix of elegance, class, sexy, and fun! The teachers are so kind and supportive and the space itself is stunning! Beginning pole dance was very intimidating for me. I tried classes at other studios but always felt out of place.
I took the 6 week beginner series with Lucy and had a wonderful experience. The whole studio has a positive energy. Lucy really takes the time to help you get things right and makes the process really fun. There is a lot of empowering each other as women and body positivity and I can honestly say anyone is welcome.
I planned a bachelorette party here for my friend - we loved it! Lucy was a fabulous instructor, she made the class so comfortable, fun, and sexy! The studio was really nicely set up and extremely clean. We really loved the vibe and learned so much in our hour class. I cannot recommend this studio enough!
Bachelorette & private parties at Tribe Dance & Pole
Tribe Dance & Pole comes up for private parties, going by their listing and students’ reviews. 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 Tribe Dance & Pole
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.
