METHODOLOGY
At Dollhouse, pole dancing is what we do best because it’s ALL we do. For over a decade we have studied the most efficient, effective training methods in order to safely coach someone with no gymnastic, aerial, dance—or any physical background at all—and guide them into the realm of elite-level acrobatic aerial tricks, help them extend their range of active (usable) flexibility, refine their “dancer line” (i.e. “ballet legs” and toe point), and blend all that with a silky-smooth dance style that captivates whether they dance for their self or an audience of hundreds.
One of the keys to our dancers' accelerated progress is our emphasis on teaching how to freedance (you might call it freestyling), which is not as effortless as it appears. But that's what we're here for. We'll hold your hand from your very first pirouette in those eight-inch heels. We'll coach you through every spin and trick and climb, through the good training days and the bad, until one day you find yourself completely engaged, focused, and vibing. Or as we call it, freedancing.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Don't be shy; we LOVE being there for someone's first spin or climb. Therefore no experience required, whatsoever. Get started off right in INTRO TO POLE DANCE, a 60-min class where you'll be surrounded by welcoming, encouraging beginning dancers who feel the same as you do.
