Beginner RollerPole Workshop with Leah

Saturday, March 15th at 2:20PM

In this class, students will learn how to incorporate pole dancing with rollerskating! The class will review basic skating techniques, try basic pole tricks in skates, and work on drills to increase confidence in skates. Students will also get to learn tricks and fun variations specific to rollerpole! There will also be plenty of time to play and take videos!

Prerequisites: Pole Level 1 minimum is required, but skating experience is not needed!

If students have their own skates, they can bring them! Skates that have outdoor jelly wheels and bearings (softer wheels than the hard, indoor wheels) are ideal, but any type of quad skate will do.

Studio has women’s sizes 5, 6, 7, 7.5, 8, 9 and 10 but only one of each size to borrow. Please message Leah at 719-648-5563 if you will need to borrow skates so she can check your size availability and reserve them for you!

Beginner Pole Choreo with Sydney

Tuesdays at 2:20PM

Students can expect to dive into a sensual, low flow and floor work choreo that emphasizes the fundamentals of dance and building a repertoire of moves that will help them succeed as they advance as dancers. Each week’s choreo will feature beginner tricks such as pirouettes, basic spins, and flow designed to familiarize students with technique, musicality, and body isolations. This class is open to bodies and strength levels of all types. Heels are welcomed but not required!

Note:
this choreo will often be retaught in Sydney’s Thursday evening Intermediate Pole Heels Choreo class, adding intermediate nuance and tricks to this beginner routine; therefore, students are encouraged to attend both classes if they wish to challenge themselves..

Prerequisites: It is required to have taken at least one intro level pole class at the studio or have a background in pole dance previous to attending this class.

Intermediate Pole Heels Choreo with Sydney

Thursdays at 5:00PM

Students can expect to learn a sensual, low flow and floor work choreo that focuses on finding flow through dynamic movement, musicality, and attention to detail. Each week’s choreo will feature intermediate tricks such as shoulder rolls, shoulder stands, and a reliance on upper body strength to move around the pole. With that being said, each trick can be switched out for a more beginner level or comfortable alternative as this class is open to bodies and strength levels of all types.

Students are highly encouraged to bring their heels. Please note that this intermediate choreo will often draw inspiration from Sydney’s Beginner Choreo that she teaches on Tuesday afternoons, adding an intermediate twist to a beginner level choreo taught each week.

Prerequisites: It is highly recommended to have taken at least one level 2-3 pole class and have a familiarity in dance technique. It is encouraged for students to attend Sydney’s Beginner Choreo class first if they are not accustomed to taking choreo classes.

Ever-Changing Chair Dance Choreo with Celia

Tuesdays at 3:40PM

This class will explore various dance styles such as burlesque, lap dance, theatrical, rhythmic, modern, lyrical, acro, hip hop and more! Students will learn steps and combos pulled from the dance style, and then learn a routine in that style that utilizes the chair as an apparatus. This class is great if students are wanting to dip their toes into other dance styles, as well as learning how to create fun and beautiful movements in any type of dance!

Everyone is welcome from brand new student to seasoned dancer. When students sign up, the instructor will reach out to let them know the current dance style being explored and will inform them how they can dress accordingly.

Fundamentals of Pole Freestyle with Sydney

Fridays at 3:40PM

This mixed-level class is designed to help students grasp the fundamentals of flowing seamlessly and effortlessly in their freestyle through instruction and repetition.

Together, the class will dance this combo to songs of varying tempos and genres, emphasizing musicality, style, and personal technique. The second half of class will serve as a chance to freestyle to an entire song two to three times. Students will have the option to continue dancing to the combo created at the beginning of class or completely freestyle. Each week, students can expect to dance to a different genre of music such as 2010’s pop, rock, rap, etc. 

This class is open to bodies and strength levels of all types. Students are encouraged to bring their heels if wanted.
