The Benefits Of Private Lessons

We hope you've all had a wonderful week and are settling in at our new location.

For this week's blog we wanted to address some changes to our timetable that a few of you have gotten in touch with us over.

At present our studio consists of only one room as opposed to the multiple rooms we had back at Templar Parc, and due to this we are currently unable to run our dance classes and non-pole workshops. This is due to the fact that if we did run them, it would require us to take down and re-fit all ten of the poles before and after every session which is incredibly time-consuming as each pole can take around 5-10 minutes to set up! We are really sorry to all the students who were enjoying our other dance classes and hope that you can find an alternative studio.

As of right now, we are running our courses and mixed ability classes on a new timetable with altered times - please refer to our website for more information. Our studio is also available to rent for one-to-one/group lessons or private hire. We hope to gradually re-introduce more of our old classes such as tricks and pole jam as and when we have enough space and teachers to run them because as well as being a little short on space, we are also on the look out to hire some new pole teachers to join our family! We are taking applications, and anyone who is interested and has relevant experience in pole can email us at: info@poletwisters.co.uk

We greatly appreciate your patience and continued support during these minor teething problems with the new location. We are working hard to get things back to normal and offer you all a broad range of classes to suit everybody’s tastes. You can keep up to date with us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for updates, and for any enquiries about specific classes that may have been affected by these changes, please do drop us an email.

As there have been some adjustments to the sessions we have on offer, as well as the running times we realise that some students may not be able to accommodate these changes around work or other commitments. It can be difficult to fit hobbies around a busy schedule, but in situations like these a private session may be just the thing - as you can arrange these at a time and date to suit you (subject to teacher availability!).

There are a wealth of benefits to taking private classes both alongside or as a substitute to regular group classes. Many aspiring pole students may find themselves feeling too self-conscious or shy to train with strangers watching. Others also simply don't like being in groups and whilst the environments in our classes are always supportive and we all strive to encourage each other, some just feel more at ease when it's just them and the teacher.

Also, those who wish to progress quicker to more advanced levels will benefit greatly from paying a bit extra in order to have an hour of undivided attention from the teacher in which they can work on whatever areas they wish to improve. Be it nailing a certain pose, developing flow or focusing on creating routines, private sessions are perfect for students looking to take their skills to the next level. We would especially encourage any students aspiring to compete to consider taking private classes, as well as newbies who are hoping to improve quicker!

Although private lessons do cost more, we believe the benefits definitely make it worth it. At Pole Twisters, our private classes are priced at £30 per hour or you can book a 6 week private course for £170. If sharing your time with a friend you pay only half each and you can also decide where the lessons take place, be it our studio or even your own home. As an optional bonus if you don't have your own pole at home, we can bring one of ours and set it up for the lesson for a small fee!

If you would like to arrange private Pole Twisters sessions, please visit our website to inquire and we'll see you all soon!
