We will teach you everything you need to know to progress in your chosen class. No prior background is required to participate. In our planning, you can see what level is required for each specific class.

For the moment, all of our flexibility or strength practices (flexibility, yoga or Pilates) you are all level classes.

If you are a complete beginner in poledance , you can either sign up for our Pole Level 1 or 1&2 class or sign up to our 6-week INTRO TO POLE course.

If you are interested in trying our sequence or choreography-based classes, we suggest taking the EMERGE course or a few Pole Level 1&2 classes first, to ensure you grasp the pole basics and can follow along more easily. With the guidance of your instructor, you can determine when you are ready to advance to the next level.

No, absolutely not. At The Base Studio, we strongly believe that pole dancing is for everybody and every body. We adapt to your unique strengths, needs, and desires and will welcome you with open arms.

We understand that joining a class where others already have experience can be intimidating. However, please note that at The Base Studio, our house rule is to be welcoming and supportive to everyone. You will quickly notice that our students enjoy cheering each other on and sharing tips and tricks they’ve learned along the way. If you prefer to start in an environment with only beginners, please check out our EMERGE course series. This 6-week beginner course starts every couple of weeks and will be the perfect place for you!

No problem at all! It's our duty to assist you in developing strength and body awareness. As you continue attending classes, you'll notice improvements in your upper body strength. Additionally, incorporating cross-training into your routine can significantly boost your overall strength and enhance your fitness level.

Anyone aged 16 or older is permitted to sign up for classes, open practice, and private sessions at the studio. All participants under 18 must have a parent or legal guardian accompany them on their first visit to the studio to complete our Parental Consent Form and present a government-issued photo ID. Currently, we do not offer classes to students under 16. However, if there is enough demand, we will introduce this in the future.
