Things People Ask Us
What should I wear?
You can check out our recommended pole wear here: www.shimmyandsparkle.com. Or, just wear shorts and a singlet top, crop top or t-shirt. You need to have bare legs to grip the pole! Don't wear moisturiser on the day of your class.
Which class should I book
We recommend buying a Class Pass of 2-3 classes per week to get the most out of your pole training.
What if I get sweaty hands?
Don't panic! It's completely normal. We recommend you buy a bottle of No Sweat in the studio. Check out our blog on Sweaty Palms for extra tips.
If you've never tried pole before, don't worry!
No strength, flexibility or experience? No problem. Our Beginner classes are made for absolute first-timers - no dance background required. You'll learn pole basics, floorwork and maybe even surprise yourself with a few spins.
We also offer stretch, conditioning and choreography classes to help you build strength, confidence and flow (and yes, you'll feel like a total goddess or god doing it).
When you arrive, our friendly front desk team will show you where to go and what to do. In class, your instructor will guide you step by step, cheer you on and keep things fun. Expect a lot of laughs, a little muscle burn and major good vibes.
