Intro to Pole Course
What is Intro to Pole Course?
This is our bestseller! An introductory offer that over a hundred students took and repeated - it's that good.
Having the same group of students and same instructor during the course creates a very special “home - like” atmosphere where students achieve the best results. Here students learn about grip aids, proper attire for each class, and differences between classes. Once you've mastered the basics, the next step is transitioning to the next step - Beginner Level classes.
Our beginner level tricks program is up to 18 months long on average. Jumping into a class with someone who already has a few months experience may seem challenging, but those who have completed the Intro to Pole Course feel ready and right at home.
How Does It Work?
This class meets once a week at the same time each week for four weeks. Intro to Pole may be taken as many times necessary to proceed to the Beginner level.
We recommend two rounds of Intro to Pole before starting Beginner level classes.
Who can skip Intro to Pole and go to the Beginner level right away?
- Aerialists with 2+ years of experience.
- Anyone who has done pole for at least 3 months continuously in the past.

I have taken 6 classes of the pole intro class so far and it has exceeded my expectations! I started because I thought it would be a good opportunity to do an activity with some friends while getting a work out, but I found the pole tricks to be very uniquely challenging and satisfying to learn, unlike any other physical activity I have done before. The classes move at a very doable place, where we do some body training exercises then learn 3-4 beginner tricks per class, first individually then combined into a little routine. My instructor has been Anna for all the classes I have taken and she is so sweet! Very tentative and good at giving constructive feedback, in a way that makes the class a very welcoming environment. There are all types of people taking this class and it feels like a place for self-empowerment rather than competition, so don't be intimidated! Plus, this is the best arm and back workout Ive ever done. Give it a try, it's really fun! :) 10/10

It’s a great starting point to try out pole dancing. It’s really fun but also challenging but a great upper body and core workout! Ana is an amazing teacher she is patient and always tries to help individually. The girls in the class are also always super sweet and no one judges you because we are all learning too!

This is a review of the intro to pole 4 program -
It's really hard to find actual beginner classes (for any dance style really), so when I saw this studio launched the into to pole 4-weeks program, I went for it. I've been wanting to go for pole classes for a while so this was a good occasion to get started!
The classes are 50min long, which I thought was short when I signed up for it, but now that I've actually done it, it's enough so I feel I'm learning the basics but not too long so I can't hold to the pole anymore (I have virtually no upper body strength). I think this is a good class length for a beginner program! There is a little warmup with the pole at the start, and then we go over the basics. From what it seems, the program is on a 4-weeks rolling schedule so you're essentially learning new things every week, and given some time to go over some stuff from the previous week at the end. The classes are limited to 8 dancers, which gives the instructor plenty of time to help and correct all dancers. I'm overall happy with my experience at AKPole right now 😊

I have taken a few classes here now and I am so glad I started. I’m a beginner and pole classes seemed intimidating, but the ladies here have been amazing! They are patient and encouraging. The space is cute and easy to feel comfortable in. I highly recommend taking advantage of their great class packages.
