Pole Fitness

Pole has become a very popular alternative form of excercise as opposed to going to a gym.

It combines dance movement with acrobatic techinque performed on a fixed vertical pole that can be set to static or to spin.

Pole dance is very expressive and has evolved from it's exotic beginnings to include styles like pole strength, pole art, contemporary pole, etc... Come along to find your style.

Shorts are required when attending pole, please do not moisturise your skin before class as this will make you slide off the pole and all jewellery should be removed to avoid damaging the surface of the poles.

Aerial Silks

Aerial silks has become increasingly popular due to increasing awareness from shows such as Cirque Du Soleil.

Aerial silks (aka aerial fabric, tissu, etc) began its humble beginnings in the circus. They are a length of fabric folded in half and suspended from a height.

A challenging and unique apparatus, silks combines strength and flexibility to perform climbs, wraps and drops.

Wearing form fitting clothing is recommended for silks to protect your skin from friction burns. So leggings and tops that you can tuck in are best. Please avoid any zips or catches as these can snag and rip the silks!

Aerial Hoop

Aerial hoops (aka lyra) are solid circular pieces of equipment that are suspended from a height.

Tricks and sequences can be learned and performed statically or on spin.

Like silks, hoop also has its roots in the circus but have become increasingly linked with pole as studios include it in their timetables.

Form fitting clothing is also required for hoop, again avoiding anything that has zips or catches.

aerial hammock

A similar discipline to aerial silk but instead of two lengths of fabric, you will be using a loop.

A great way to learn to move in the air, a hammock can help you go deeper into stretches and poses to help improve overall flexibility while also being intense enough to build up strength and fitness levels.
