Negative experience: I usually use the self-practise room as I do classes closer to my area, however I felt unwelcome by someone who I assume is an instructor as she is there often. For context there are posters on the walls instructing students that the shoes are for personal use only. I had used her personal yoga mat and I apologised and said I was sorry. I was told before that equipment was available for use crash mats, weights, stretching blocks,etc. I assumed this fell under "equipment" and there were no posters advising otherwise. I was told again after apologising not to use the mat which I found very condescending along with being told that I couldn't use the shoes; I can read, I am well aware I cannot use the shoes and have never used any shoes aside from my own. I may have just taken it personally but I do find this offensive, out of respect of the students I would never use their shoes, as well as for hygiene purposes I would hope that no one would thinks I'm just trying on sweaty pole shoes!? I understand one experience doesn't define a business but thought I would provide some feed back. Overall the facility is nice, the glass door separating the self-practise room from the main room is frosted over for privacy. There's a lot of space in the room to move and some equipment to use. I do more "flow" rather than tricks, I find my heels don't really glide along the wooden floors too well and the floor is almost sticky? The room gets quite hot in the Summertime but there is a window and a fan I assume is available to use - there are no posters telling me otherwise. Maybe a poster for the mat for any newcomers would be helpful.

Fantastic experience: So kind, so patient for beginners. An amazing, clean studio. A non-judgmental and inclusive place. My pole journey has begun off on the right foot! Thanks Jaymie for making me feel so comfortable when I couldn't handle the basic spins yet, and thanks for the workout which I could feel the next day! Lol. So much better than any gym!

Fantastic experience: The best pole studio of Auckland! I've been going there for probably 5 years and they make me feel like family! There's a good variety of classes for all levels, another space for self-practice sessions, we have exotic, we have tricks, we have spin, we have static. Super empowering environment, you'll always have someone to cheer you on

Fantastic experience: Dani's lesson is amazing. She is really patient and great explaining the movements, and one of the most important things for me: she is really encouraging. Love it!!

Fantastic experience: Such a friendly and accepting place to learn pole!! If you’re interested to give it a go, this is the place

Fantastic experience: Fun, friendly. I'm really self conscious but the instructors and people are really nice.
