Our classes

Pole

A pole class is a fitness class that uses a vertical pole to build strength, flexibility, and coordination through bodyweight-based movements. The focus is on developing upper body and core strength, improving balance, and learning controlled movements using the pole for support and resistance.

Hoop

An aerial hoop class is a full body workout that uses a suspended steel hoop (also called a Lyra) to build strength, flexibility, and coordination while performing controlled movements in the air. Students learn poses and tricks in and around the hoop, developing core and upper-body strength in a fun, supportive environment.

Sling

An aerial sling class uses a soft fabric hammock suspended from the ceiling. Students perform poses, shapes and combinations while supported by the hammock, some even upside down! The class focuses on improving strength, flexibility and coordination, whilst in a soft. supportive material.

Dance

Dance classes focusing on unleashing your inner sass and confidence. These can be pole, chair or floor routines. These classes combine playful, sensual movement with empowering choreography that’s as fun as it is fierce. Express yourself in a way that feels strong, sensual and unapologetically you.

Workshops

We often offer fun workshops in equipment such as flying pole, flexibility, pole silks, hoop choreo, pole straps etc, and have guest instructors join us. These workshops provide a supportive environment to take your training to the next level and push your limits, and are a great opportunity to make new friends.

Private lessons, parties etc

In addition to our regular classes, we offer private lessons tailored to your individual goals, as well as fun and memorable parties for all ages. Our studio is also available to rent for private practice sessions, or we offer group practice sessions for those wishing to spend some more time on the moves learnt in class.
