Short answer: comfort > everything.

Top:
Wear something fitted that stays in place when you move. Sports bras or snug tanks work great.

Bottoms:
Shorts are best. You’ll need some skin for grip. Bike shorts or booty shorts both work.

Layers:
Bring a layer you can take off once you warm up. You will get sweaty.

Feet:
Barefoot is totally fine. Heels are not required for your first class. Socks are optional.

Skip the lotion:
No lotion, oils, or body shimmer before class. Clean skin = happy pole.

Hair & jewelry:
Tie your hair back. Remove all jewelry, rings, watches, bracelets, and anklets, for your safety and to protect the poles.

Vibe check:
Wear what makes you feel confident. Everyone starts somewhere. Showing up is the win.

What to Wear to Your First Pole Class

New to pole heels? Breathe. You don’t need to drop $$$ yet.

Start secondhand.
Check Facebook Marketplace, Poshmark, or thrift spots like Plato’s Closet. You can usually snag a pair around $50, which is perfect for testing the waters.

Brands to look for:
• Pleaser – most common, easy to find
• Hella Heels – also great, just pricier

Boots > Sandals (for beginners).
Boots = ankle support + confidence.
Sandals are cute, but they ask more from your ankles.

Heel height:
Start with 6-inch heels. Manageable. Controlled. Still hot.

Before you buy your first heels: Avoid fabric or suede, heavy glitter or embellishments, and metal accents. These can limit grip, comfort, and control on the pole.

Want focused attention? Say less.
Private and semi-private lessons are for dancers who want to level up, clean things up, or get extra time on what actually needs work.

We can focus on technique, choreo, control, transitions, or whatever your pole heart desires.

Session options:
1 hour, 90 minutes, or 2 hours. Longer sessions mean more warm-up, more breakdowns, and more progress.

Rates
	•	Private (1:1): $60 per hour
	•	Small group (2–4): $50 per person per hour
	•	Group (5+): $40 per person per hour

Grab your people or come solo. Either way, we’re getting to work.

Message me to book or ask questions.

Thank you for all the love and support, for years of dance lessons, carpools, tights and too-tight ponytails, and for showing up every step of the way. From studio floors to my pole journey, you’ve always had my back, even when you didn’t totally get it at first.

I love you so much, and I’m endlessly grateful you’re my mommie. Always.
