Pole fitness and dance classes

The West of Ireland’s ultimate pole destination!

A multi-national, queer-friendly pole studio with character, since 2016. Friendly, easy-going pole fitness and dancing classes, with an emphasis on safety — the perfect after-work way to de-stress, get strong, confident, and have fun in a music-led atmosphere. No experience needed. Let us help you!

We help people from all backgrounds — with no fitness experience required — discover an alternative workout different to mainstream group fitness classes or the gym.

Pole fitness offers all the health benefits of traditional workouts — and more. In just one hour, you’ll get a full-body workout led by a fun, interactive instructor in a safe and supportive setting.

Pole dance and fitness can improve:

  • Overall strength and muscle tone
  • Flexibility and mobility
  • Cardiovascular health
  • Bone strength

Alongside the physical benefits, pole fitness also supports mindfulness, body awareness, and a stronger connection to how you move and feel.

Our professional pole instructors set the tone for every class — creating a welcoming, confidence-building environment where beginners feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged from day one.

Completely new to pole ?

Our Starter pole program can help you. It’s one hour a week, learning complete beginner moves at a nice pace that’s easy and fun to follow. Our members started with us through the starter program and never looked back. It’s been life-changing for them, from having zero confidence in themselves, and we get to witness amazing transformations. We will help you every step of the way, so please don’t feel intimidated or nervous.

Full class details, description and times can be found on the booking system or if you are looking to continue with pole.

OUR CLIENTS

I’ve tried other forms of exercise and have always got bored before any results can be seen. That is most definitely not the case with pole. Racheal is constantly pushing you and you are constantly learning new things. It’s tough but I love it.

Ruth – Galway

Racheal’s classes are truly fantastic, if you’re looking for a way to keep fit, have fun and let your hair down all at the same time, then I highly recommend signing up! Racheal really gets the class going with great music and a positive attitude! 

Sarah – Ennis. Co Clare

Pole class is the best class I’ve ever signed up for. What I really love about these classes, is the environment. Everyone just wants to help each other and see each other doing well. Racheal sets the tone in every class from the beginning. And I love the sense of achievement you get when you master a new move!

THE STUDIO

Galway leaders have set the standard for pole, boosting the growth of the pole community and new instructors. We are proud to say that we are the longest-running pole dance fitness studio in the West of Ireland. Driven by passion!

Our pole studio has 7 industry-spec poles with fixed mountings to the ceiling for complete safety. In a class, we share two per pole, which makes the class interactive, friendly, and allows for breaks on the pole. All programs and classes must be pre-booked online through the booking system, so that we don’t overfill classes. There is free parking outside.

Our hallway displays all valid qualifications and achievements. Following into our reception area of pink décor with a full-sized Barbie box – the hen parties love the Barbie box! You can access all doors in the reception to the changing rooms and the pole studio.

The pole studio is completely private, providing a safe space for our students to learn in specific pole dance classes, such as heels pole class for sensual dance. We also hold pop-up classes like Chair dance, StripPlastic floorwork, and pole workshops with guest instructors.

🖤

With low-light to set the mood, a private setting—move freely, feminine energy, feel empowered, and explore self-expression through pole dancing.

Our pole dance classes celebrate movement as an art form— not vulgar; it’s about owning your body, your strength, and your inner power!
