We are specialising on Pole Dance & Fitness, Pole Heels \ Exotic and Stretching. Private classes allow more versatility when working 1~1, for example, Belly Dance. You are welcome to explore available classes and courses here.

For Pole training, we recommend wearing a tank top and a pair of shorts. Many pole fitness elements require bare skin contact with the pole to ensure a secure grip. For Pole Heels training, we recommend wearing a tank top, a pair of shorts, socks or dance heels, and knee pads. For most classes it would be ok to wear leggings instead of shorts where skin contact with the pole is less relevant. As for the knee pads, we have a few pairs to borrow during the class for initial sessions, yet for those who decides to continue training, it is a good investment in your comfort, aesthetics and safety. For Stretching & Conditioning, we recommend wearing a top, leggings or sports attire of your choise, and socks. Please also bring: A bottle of water A small sweat towel Alternatively, you are welcome to use tissues provided in the class. Important notes: Avoid using hand creams or body lotions (especially oil-based products) on the day of your class, as they can cause slipping. Jewelry is not permitted for health and safety reasons, particularly on fingers, toes, ankles, and wrists. Chewing gum is not permitted in the class, and should be disposed of before the class starts.

​Our classes are open to participants aged 18 and older, regardless of gender, provided there are no medical conditions preventing participation in this type of activity. For students aged 17, it may be possible to join with parental or guardian permission. Please have your parent or guardian contact us directly, as these cases are reviewed individually.

Even though there is a lot of room for variability in defining levels, these guidelines may help to find the most suitable group for yourself: Beginner | Level 1 >> If you have never done Pole Fitness or Pole Dance before or you have already had a few classes. Suitable for individuals new to pole dance or with minimal experience. Focuses on foundational moves, basic spins, grips, and building strength. Emphasizes correct technique, safety, and body conditioning to prepare for more advanced movements. Pre-Intermediate / Progressig Beginner | Level 2 >> Designed for students familiar with basic techniques, including inverts, spins, and climbs. Focuses on refining these skills, introducing more complex spins, and beginning inverted positions. Incorporates conditioning to build the necessary strength for intermediate tricks. Intermediate | Level 3 >> For those comfortable with inversions and basic aerial tricks. Introduces more challenging moves like leg hangs, advanced spins, and combinations. Emphasizes developing fluid transitions and building endurance. Advanced | Level 4 & Above >> Tailored for experienced pole dancers proficient in a wide range of techniques. Focuses on complex aerial tricks, intricate combinations, and dynamic movements. Encourages personal style development, choreography, and preparation for performances or competitions. It's important to note that these levels can vary between studios, and some may have additional sub-levels or specific criteria for progression. For exotic pole dance, which emphasizes sensual movement and dance elements, the progression levels often mirror those of traditional pole dance. However, they place a greater emphasis on dance flow, floor work, and choreography at each stage. When determining your level, it's advisable to consult with instructors and consider individual capabilities, as progression can be subjective and varies from person to person.

​Pictures are taken on the student's request for personal use. Instructors may invite students to participate in recording for social media, however, there will be always an explicit warning of the recording or photo purpose. IMPORTANT: No pictures or videos are published in social media without students' permission!

We run our in-person classes in Studio 4 (Firkin Crane Theatre). It is a round building in Cork City center just past Maldron Hotel up the hill, next to the Butter Museum and St. Anne's church. Our exact address is: Firkin Crane, John Redmond street, Shandon, Cork, T23 Y584, Ireland >> Google Maps

You could have a small snack (couple of nuts or dried fruit, an apple or any other alike food) 15-30 minutes before the class. However, it is not recommended to have a meal later than 2 hours before the class.

The primary difference lies in the style, focus, and movement dynamics: Pole Dance: This style focuses on a mix of athletic and artistic elements, emphasizing strength, flexibility, and technique. It includes spins, tricks, and transitions that highlight the physical and technical aspects of pole fitness. While barefoot practice is common, heels can be worn if desired, but they are not the focus of this style. Pole Heels: This style incorporates sensual movement and flow, with choreography designed to highlight the aesthetic and expressive aspects of pole dancing. Although heels are optional, they are often worn to enhance the overall visual impact and fluidity of movements. Pole Heels classes also tend to include floor work, body waves, and slinky transitions that complement the use of heels. Both styles are excellent ways to explore pole dance, with Pole Dance leaning toward strength and tricks, while Pole Heels adds a touch of flair and sensuality. Also both styles can be learned simultaneously, allowing students to develop a well-rounded skill set that blends strength, technique, and expressive movement.

Regular course includes 3 sessions (one session per week). Also course duration is specified for each service in the description.

Generally we have classes on Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings. However, we invite you to check our Class Schedule for more detailed info. Additional sessions, for example, Pole Focus, Off Pole Practice, may be added to the schedule, and would be also announced on our social media platforms and Spaces app notifications. >> Instagram | Facebook <<

After more than a decade of offering successful drop-in classes, we’ve decided to switch to short 3-week courses starting in February 2025. Yet we are adding some single Taster classes at a discounted price giving an opportunity to try it out and see if this is something you would like to continue. Why the change? Well, this shift comes with a few key benefits: Better Progress: Short courses foster greater progress than drop-ins. The structured format allows for a more consistent syllabus, improved attendance and motivation, and provides adequate time for the body to adapt to new movement patterns. Focused Level Differentiation: Courses enable us to better tailor content to different skill levels, allowing students to focus on specific elements and achieve their goals more efficiently. Clarity in Scheduling and Content: This format provides both students and instructors with a clear understanding of the upcoming timetable and class content. Smooth Step-by-Step Progression: With fewer gaps due to attendance issues or missed topics, courses allow for a more cohesive learning experience Also we are moving to hybrid training structure (in-person + online) where courses are fitting the future vision of the studio allowing to have bonuses from both in person and online training Please note that booking is necessary to avoid disappointment.
