I'm not very athletic or co-ordinated will I be able to do it?
At Spin City we welcome everyone - regardless of dance experience, athletic ability or fitness level. Being able to support your body weight and having a little coordination will help but remember - these are the skills you will learn during your course. As with everything, it will come more naturally to some people that others but everyone can do it! We all learn in different ways, at different speeds and Spin City helps provide an inclusive atmosphere to learn in where you can develop your own unique dance style!
What should I wear/bring?
Bare arms and legs are essential to grip the pole, so we would recommend shorts and a t-shirt or vest, with either trainers, dance shoes or bare feet - comfortable gym clothes. Try not to moisturise the day of your class as this can affect your grip on the pole.
For aerial hoop classes, it is important to have skin covered and we would recommend you wear several layers. Fitted clothing is better than loose items, so leggings, tights, vest and leotards are all suitable. For dance classes - comfortable gym kit with either dance shoes or trainers works well.
For burlesque - we like to glam things up, so bring layers with you that can easily be removed (say a cardigan) you will need trainers or dance shoes for the warm up and then a pair of heels for the class.
