FAQ'S and WHAT TO WEAR AND BRING TO CLASS |
|
|
WHAT DO I WEAR TO POLE CLASSES?
POLE DANCE, POLE FITNESS, and other Beginner/All-Levels pole classes: Wear comfortable workout attire. This can include yoga pants or shorts, tank tops, T-shirts, sport bras--whatever you feel comfortable in! We will use the inside of your knee and calf for some spins, so if you wear pants make sure they are loose enough to pull above the knee! We teach barefoot, so no shoes are required. Please do not put on any body lotions or oils on at least 6 hours prior to classes. We encourage water breaks, so feel free to bring a bottle. Girls attending Pole Dance Parties are asked to bring and wear the same!
INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED POLE CLASSES: Any intermediate pole classes will need certain areas of the body to be exposed so that the pole can be in contact with your skin for grip. Wear short shorts or pole shorts, and either wear a sports bra or make sure you're able to pull up your tank or t-shirt to expose the sides of your stomach. Stripper heels are welcome in these classes but not required unless noted in the class description. WHAT DO I BRING AND WEAR TO CHAIR & FLOOR CLASSES?
Shoes: If stripper heels are recommended for the class your taking they are because they have more support than street heels and are designed for wearing for long periods of time as well as make your ass-ets look amazing! Stripper/Exotic heels work the calf and leg muscles more as well as hit the muscles in different ways. The moves we teach will work best with platform high heels.
We always tell students to bring what they have and try them out, then go from there. A shoe with a thicker “chunkier” heel will be more supportive as well as one with an ankle strap. A 5 1/2 to 6 inch platform open toe shoe with ankle support is your best bet. We recommend avoiding shoes that are too large or too tight. Wearing thin socks with heels helps a lot with any rubbing or discomfort. If shopping in Austin, La Roux next to Dreamers off I35 has the largest selection. Plan to spend about $40 for a basic good pair of stripper shoes. 
With all this said, DON'T LET NOT HAVING THE PROPER SHOE KEEP YOU FROM COMING TO CLASS. It takes everyone a few times to find what shoes, heels and styles work best for their body and makes them happy!
Clothing: Wear what you're comfortable in, and what will allow you to see your body move. Form-fitted tank tops, dance or yoga tights (leggings work great), and even something that is a little flirty or cute. (Can we say leggings over those heels? HOT.) For the Chair Dance and Lap Dance Classes, we do open and spread out the legs in front of the mirror and during floor and chair work, so short shorts and skirts are not recommended. If you like your booty shorts and don’t mind showing some skin, just make sure they come with plenty of crotch coverage. WHAT DO I BRING TO STRIPPING CLASSES?
Any of the classes teaching stripping, we do not actually strip down to nudity or take off any clothing!!
Instead, wear a form fitted top and bottom. Then we ask you to bring the following items that we will wear over our clothing during the strip part of the lesson. 1. Thong (not g-string) 2. Booty shorts, or lingerie type shorts to go over 3. Bra with a back closure 4. Lingerie type top, tank top, or spaghetti strap (please try not to have any zippers, buttons, tassels, or anything that would easily get caught up when your first learning) FOR MORE DETAILED INFORMATION OR TO SEE HOW THIS ALL LOOKS WATCH THE VIDEO TO THE RIGHT! =)
