General Instructions to Prepare for Class

Jewelry

Please leave all jewelry that may come in contact with the pole at home. We are not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged items, and jewelry items can also do damage to the studio poles. It is important to remove all jewelry prior to beginning class.

Lotion

Please do not apply body lotions of any type to your skin the day of class. Lotions, oils, and other types of moisturizers can cause issue with grip, and can leave a residue on the studio poles that is difficult to clean.

Water

Make sure you bring water with you to class. If you need to purchase some, there is an AC&T right next door to the studio.

Attire

As you've likely seen online, pole fitness does require some skin to be exposed in order to get the full experience from your class. Below you will find some general guidelines to get you started:

Top

Feel free to wear a tank top, a sports bra, or any other type of top in which you feel comfortable being seen by others.

Shorts

Yes, you need shorts. ;-) The recommended length is a 2"-3" inseam, which are commonly referred to as yoga shorts. You can also wear a brief-style swimsuit bottom, boyshort-style underwear, or even hot pants!

Footwear

Please arrive to class in whatever shoes you feel comfortable, as we have a shoe rack that you can place them on prior to selecting your pole; you can also place your purse in this location if you would like. During class, you may prefer to start with socks on to see what type of grip you have, and if you prefer, you can always take the socks off later into class.

Parking

The studio address is 700 Frederick St., Hagerstown, MD 21740

When you arrive at our building, you will find 4-5 parking spaces on either side. Please feel free to utilize them during your class (and please ignore the towing signs - they're to keep people from parking overnight).

When you come in the front door of the building, proceed through the lobby and to your right, where you will see our signs. If you should arrive before the instructor, please wait in the waiting area and send us a text at 240-866-9928 for an update on when the instructor should arrive.
