"I would never have thought to do something like this if my friend hadn't dragged (yes dragged) me along, I'm not the smallest of people and I just didn't think it would be my cup of tea, but how wrong could I be. I LOVE IT!!!!!!. It really is true, it suits any size. I'm so glad I went now, won't be giving this class up!!!!. Thanks to all the girls who have helped me achieve so much in such a short space of time, you're all superstars."

Oh my word,,,,
How I wish I came across pole-da-cise years ago. Admittedly it was not my idea to join, it was a friend's, I wanted to do Salsa classes, I can't be thankfully enough for giving it ago. I also admit that I too was small minded in thinking it wouldn't be to difficult acting all sleazy n sexually around a pole, what a slap in the face I got, I couldn't of been more further from the reality of what fun it is, how much core strength you need and build up from doing it, and the post ions and elegance that some people can get themselves into have me dumb founded and in awe with admiration. But just as equally the determination of being able to get into those moves myself, and with the help from the instructors, their knowledge and there determination to pass on there skill to us, I can truly say we are blessed to have them teach us. No matter how little confidence one has, I can 100% say you will not feel intimidated by anyone, but even from the people you may never have met are full of support in encouraging you and applauding you of achievements of learning the different moves. If I could rule the world I'd make it compulsory to attend pole classes, not only for the fun factor, but for fitness and the stamina it builds as well as the overall toning of ones body, from the zero to plus sizes I've noticed the muscles and pert asses the ladies possess that do pole, after only 12 weeks I can safely say I've never had a butt as good as I do now, even in my teenager years I could still do the pencil test, (where butt cheeks to thigh holds onto a pencil/pen) but not no more, :-D But even more rewarding is seeing all that attend a class leave with a big smile on their face.
