Pole classes are all about feeling comfortable, confident and of course, safe. To ensure you get the most out of your experience, we ask that you please arrive 5-10 minutes early to class so you can fully arrive, drop into your body and feel relaxed before class even begins. Wear comfortable clothes that feel good on your skin, and clothes that allow you to feel free to express yourself. To ensure you have good grip and contact with the pole, we recommend clothes that expose your skin such as shorts and a sports bra, or your favorite tank top (feel free to wear pants over your shorts for our warm up and the walk from your car to the studio).

One last little tip, to make sure we protect the pole equipment and your body, please refrain from wearing any jewelry, rings, lotions or oils during pole classes.

We are a FRAGRANCE FREE space. Some bodies have allergies to scents like perfumes, essential oils and heavily scented body products. Thanks for refraining from using these items while training and dancing with us! 
 
Most of all, arrive with an open mind...ready to have fun, explore, strengthen your body and connect with community!

The best place to start as a new students is with our Intro to Pole, or our S Factor Beginning classes. These classes go over all the proper foundation and techniques so you will feel confident as you continue to grow and explore here at Steel and Grace. As a new student, you can sign up as a drop-in to any classes marked “Foundations/Intro”, "Beginning" or “All Levels”.

We normally go barefoot for introductory level classes, so you will not need to wear heels for the majority of our beginning and all level classes. In some of our advanced classes, speciality workshops, and our Heels and Floorwork Class we do wear heels. Check your class descriptions to see what's needed for your upcoming classes. We will give notice in our series and workshop descriptions if heels are part of the curriculum; if they are we recommend platform style heels such as Pleasers.

There is a bathroom in the building located down the hall. Showers are not available on site.

Yes! There is plenty of street parking and a large lot across the street. That said, parking can be more difficult during weekday mornings and Saturdays when the Farmers Market is open so we suggest you leave yourself extra time if you are coming to a class on those mornings.

Due to the high volume of interest we recommend you sign up for your classes in advance online. Most classes fill prior to the week they are offered. You can register and pay online through our MindBody scheduler. To sign up for regularly scheduled classes, please sign up through the ‘Schedule’ page on our website. Please sign up and pay before taking a class.
