core strengthening, and a cool-down with flexibility stretches. In this class you will learn the
fundamentals of pole dance technique & strength training. From walking around the pole, to basic
spins and floor work you will walk away with all you need to join our beginner level classes. Class
will highlight body alignment, and confidence-building through body awareness and technique. This
class is designed to introduce students to the pole and to the range of moves that can be performed
with time and practice. Attention is also given to building upper body strength and flexibility all of
which contribute to gaining pole skills. You can see for yourself what everyone else talking about! It

Lyra
Aerial lyra (also known as aerial hoop) is a circular apparatus suspended from a single or double
point. In this class you will learn the various techniques to enter and exit from the hoop along with
conditioning, strength and flexibility exercises. After learning basic skills and conditioning, the
class will gradually progress into building your strength, showcasing flexibility and learning
flipping, turning, rolling, posing, and transitioning positions. Note: We require students to wear
clothing that covers the legs, torso and arms for all aerial classes, other than pole. This will help
avoiding burns caused by friction with the fabric or hoop.

floor as well as hand-balancing canes. This class will cover everything thing from one-arm crocs,
to headstands to handstands and aerials. This class will feature a lot of conditioning and will focus
on keeping correct form through every movement. Aside from traditional moves we will also focus
on power yoga poses to work on balance and build strength.
