Classes & Prices
Here at CRPD we try to encourage our "Chromies" to become comfortable with a wide range of styles and techniques.
We rotate between spinny & static pole work each week and have classes ranging from foundations and technique to exotic, flow, flexibility, conditioning, private tuition and even acrobalance.
Beginners Pole
Mondays – 8:30pm
Wednesdays – 7:30pm
Thursdays – 6:30pm
Sundays – 10am
No strength or flexibility is needed to start pole dancing! Suitable for those with little or no pole experience, this course will introduce you to the fundamentals of pole. Covering basic spins, grips and transitions on and around the pole, you will usually learn a mini routine in every class, gradually building up the strength needed to progress.
Our Beginners classes tend to fill up fast, so make sure to sign up today to reserve your spot, or add yourself to the waiting list.

Thursdays – 8:30pm
In this class you will learn more complicated transitions, inverts, drops, flexibility and strength moves. There is a strong emphasis on clean lines and smooth transitions whilst encouraging you to develop your flexibility, strength, musicality and personal performance style.
Mixed Level Pole
Mixed Level Pole is suitable for all students who have attended a minimum of 10 of our beginners classes.
Saturdays 12pm
Classes include conditioning, a small flow & some up the pole tricks & transitions. All abilities will be catered for and appropriate level options given for each move.
This class is also useful for you if you have learnt some pole elsewhere but don't know which level is best for you.
Exotic Pole
Tuesdays 7:30pm
Taught by our very own Slinkstress Leah Rose, Exotic Pole will provide you with plenty of low flow and sultry movements which can add new elements to your dance.
This class will explore different styles of exotic dance, such as stripper style, russian and showgirl.
Some weeks will be more technique focussed and some will be just about getting down and dirty!
To get the most out of this class, students should be able to shoulder roll (forwards/backwards roll) and know basic transitions/spins.
Don’t forget to bring heels (or socks for sliding) and kneepads!
Pole Flow
Wednesdays 6:30pm
This class will help you grow as a dancer with a routine that has no tricks, just gorgeous sequences that will help to improve your performance, technical and creative skills.
What is Pole Flow?
It's all about the seamless flow using weight distribution and opposition, emotion, shapes, movements and breathy pauses that create a beautiful, balletic dance style.
Can I do it?
The emphasis on this class is on creativity and flow, not tricks. But you need to have at least 10 weeks pole experience. .
Pole Conditioning
Saturdays 11am
Love it or hate it, conditioning is one of those things we just know is good for us. This class will incorporate both floor and pole exercises, chosen specifically to help you achieve your pole goals.
With regular attendance you should start to see a difference in your strength and pole abilities, and your body shape!
All levels welcome, but be prepared to work hard!
Flexibility
Thursdays 7:30pm
Want those splits? Or find that daily life just leaves you feeling a bit stiff?
This class will safely and effectively aim to increase your range of movement and will aim to leave you stretched/strengthened and balanced.
Class content will vary from week to week and you are encouraged to work at your own pace. But be prepared to work hard. A flex class is a strength class!
Suitable for everyone, you do not need to do pole to come to this class.
Open Pole
Times vary, so check the booking calendar..
Open Pole gives you a chance to practice what you want. Whether you`re training for a competition or want to revise what you’ve done in class, stretch or even just take photos and videos!
Please make sure you warm up/ cool down sufficiently to avoid injury.
This class does not include instruction so is not suitable for complete beginners.
Acrobalance
Mondays - 6:30pm - 8:30pm
Our acrobalance classes are run by the amazing Tink & Hyper - aka Acrobility!
From the fundamentals and basic balances through to moves like the Dirty Dancing lift, acrobalance is a fun and very social way to build your flexibility, core strength and balance.
Classes alternate weekly between beginners, where no previous experience or partner is needed, And inter/advanced. No partner needed but previous acro experience is essential.
Private Tuition
Private tuition is perfect if you are unable to make group lessons, prefer 1 on 1 teaching or would like to progress at a faster rate.
We can help you with those trouble moves, choreography and competition prep, or just teach you something new!
All CRPD instructors are available for private tuition. Group privates and 2-1 lessons are also available.
Information on pricing and instructors availability can be made by contacting CRPD or your instructor directly.
Further Info & Prices
Our pole dance lessons enable you to progress at your own pace, moving up a level when both you and your instructor feel you are ready.
If you are unsure of which level to join, we recommend you attend one of our open pole sessions/ mixed level class or book a private lesson. This will allow the instructor to assess your ability and suggest appropriate classes.
