I had a blast pole dancing! I learned I had more strength and flexibility than I knew. It’s a great one-hour workout and the best part is the instructor. She’s very encouraging, friendly and down-to-earth. I will definitely keep going. - Kelly B.
Pole dancing classes are good for anybody, no matter your size. I am a bigger woman and felt comfortable in the class. My size didn’t matter. Anyone who’s looking to have a good time and gain confidence should definitely try pole dancing. I highly recommend it. - Rebecca B.
I got into pole dancing because I needed a distraction in my life. I just broke up with my boyfriend, I was down on life, and my girlfriend decided I needed to have some fun. We took the class together because we
wanted to get into shape, have fun, and let’s face it; the idea of pole dancing is hot! Pole dancing was a perfect way for me to start feeling good about myself again, get into shape, and to build up my confidence. The class was so much fun and it has definitely spiced things up in my personal life. - Kelly T.
Pole dancing is about fun and confidence! It is a riot and requires neither grace nor talent in order to have a great time! The instructor is clearly passionate about her work which adds to the excitement of the hour. Pole dancing is a fun reminder that you can be sensual at any age, at any level of fitness ... it’s all in the attitude, and pole dancing gives you a little secret that translates into that sensual kind of confidence that shows. If you are still unsure, come watch a class and you will be hooked! - Adriana W.
When I heard about Studios In The Exchange Pole Dance Class, I said, "Of course I’ll join". Meanwhile I was thinking, yeah right, "me pole dancing? I don't have the body for that." My theory in life was, once you’re a mom all the sexiness is gone and there's no time for it anyways. So, I went on the website and discovered it was not what I thought pole dancing would be at all. First of all, there wasn't a weight restriction. I didn't have to be a stripper and didn't have to have a perfect body. To be able to make up your own class of your closest friends and the price being just right I thought “What do I have to lose? A few pounds I hope. If everything else fails, at least ill have this to fall back on, ha-ha. In the first class I was terrified, so many questions going through my head and a lot of insecurities. The worst part about it was, my outfit shrunk, my body just didn't look the way I imagined it and the thoughts of people laughing at me was scary to think about. I left that first class feeling good about myself. To have people cheer you on is the greatest feeling in the world. The atmosphere was perfect and it was a creative and fun night out with the girls. Throughout all the classes I learned a lot about myself, not only physically, but emotionally too. I have learned that I don't need a banging body to be sexy; as long as I feel sexy, I will look sexy. I now have the drive to exercise a bit more and it can be fun doing it. I guess to sum this all up in a couple of words, my experience was awesome, and I never expected to receive as much as I did out of this class. So thank you for everything!

I was getting tired of my regular gym routine and looking for a new form of exercise when I joined pole dancing at SITE. Now that I've started, I love it! I can tone my muscles and explore my sensual side. Pole dancing has become useful for fitness.......and play! - Flo
Pole dancing is a fun way to improve fitness and help build confidence. It helped to improve my spirit and has benefited me physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. - Melissa M.
I had a great time. This was much more physically demanding than I expected! A great workout! Carole is so graceful and capable and she is very relaxed and accepting as an instructor - no pressure! It was fun! - Anonymous
Had I known what pole is capable of doing for a person I would have started long ago. But, it's had that stigma that good girls don't want to do things like that, or at least, let anyone else know they do. My question is what's wrong with being sensual and expressing sensuality? It's part of who we are. We'd be a lot happier if we expressed our sensual side more: I know I am! On all levels. I feel beautiful! I feel free! More tolerant. Less stressed. More charitable. I have more strength; and let me tell you, strength is empowering! There's nothing like having control over your body. It makes me feel strong and healthy and seeeeexxxxxy. I have my flaws, too much here, not enough there, there's always something. But what pole did for me was allow me to see, feel, and express my inner beauty. People tell me that they love to be around me because the energy I emit makes them feel good! What a compliment! - Anonymous
Excellent instruction (and) great feedback helps build up your confidence - you really understand. Great fun with lots of inspiration from the other women in the class. Awesome time, I’m looking forward to continuing on to complete the other levels. Keep up showing us how, Carole! - N.D.
What a great party we had Carole! - N.D.
