Review of Body & Pole

I've tried other studios and just like any studio ...

I've tried other studios and just like any studio this one has it's ups and downs. A lot of folks complain about the late arrival policy but the policy is there for a reason. For many classes late arrival is disruptive because the instructors ask everyone in the beginning about injuries. Also if I could skip the warmup I would, but that would also lead to injury. I know I'm not alone in wishing I could get out of the warm up, but I also know it's important to build the strength to do the harder moves. After a year of consistent training I could go on about the cons, but I want to write more about the pros. Namely, the amazing teachers who keep me coming back.
Yes there are a lot of teachers to love, but I greatly appreciate Stella Fink's Pole classes. She keeps things fun yet challenging. She will also spot you and is willing to work with you if there's something you are struggling with. She teaches with Patience and humility (as does Irmingard Mayer) and I strongly recommend either of these instructors new to Pole. You will not be disappointed.
