Dakini is for all women regardless of age, size, shape, physical ability, or background. No prior dance, yoga, or fitness training of any kind is required. While learning the basics, new students will be trained in various strength and flexibility techniques, which will coincide with the introduction of tricks that are more physically challenging.

Dakini is a unique style of movement. It’s much more than a workout or a pole dancing class; it’s a planned dance curriculum. Each student progresses at their own rate, through three different levels. Each level offers new challenges that correspond with the student’s growth in technical skill and self-confidence. In addition to pole movements, students explore sensuality through floor movements, personalized assignments, and the use of clothing and props. Most pole fitness programs offer only pole tricks, whereas Dakini is a journey of self-exploration.

We offer pole classes for all skill levels from absolute beginners to seasoned practitioners. If you are visiting from another studio, call and we will make recommendations appropriate for your previous experience and capability. Please check out our Classes page for more information.

We also book Private Sessions and Parties, which we can customize to meet your needs.

We recommend Intro to Pole followed by Beginner. Flow and Tech are also suitable for all levels, but it's best to take a free classes before moving into those programs.

You may wear anything that you will be comfortable moving in, such as workout or yoga attire. No shoes are allowed in the studio, so we recommend coming with shoes that are easy to take on and off. Bare feet are recommended during class. Socks are acceptable, be warned that you may slide too much. Do not apply hand or body lotion the day of clas
