Please be 10 minutes early so we can get you signed in, verify your waiver on file and get you ready for class. If you experience any issues with getting to the studio, please call us right away.

The class begins with about a 10-15 minute warmup/conditioning series to make sure your body is ready to move. Then all you need to do is follow along and have fun! Each class presents its own challenges, so don’t be surprised if you are a little achy in the next couple of days or see a few bruises (we call them pole kisses). Since this is a specialty fitness class, it takes the body a little while to get used to it.

We do have a strict late arrival policy. Once the class is 5 minutes past the start time, students will not be allowed to participate. This is for safety reasons. We want you to have a full warmup to prevent any injury. DO NOT BE LATE.

Pole – You will want to wear fitted shorts paired with a sports bra, tank top, or t-shirt. Leggings or sweatpants are fine to start with as long as you can roll them up enough to expose the skin on the back of your knees. As you progress in pole you will need more skin contact in order to do the more advanced tricks. Do not apply lotion, creams, or other moisturizers to your body and hands before class as you will not be able to stick to the poles! 

PLEASE REMOVE ALL JEWELRY PRIOR TO CLASS. THAT INCLUDES FITBITS, APPLE WATCHES, AND OTHER EXERCISE BRACELETS. DO NOT SCRATCH OUR POLE.

Flexibility & Handstands – Anything you would wear to the gym or a yoga class that will allow you to move freely.

Liquid Motion – Layers! As this is a floor class, socks, leggings, leg warmers, and a shirt with sleeves are recommended. Knee pads are a must!

We have common use bathrooms that you can use to get changed. Please be sure to arrive early if you need to use the restroom to get changed as our late arrival policy still applies.

DO NOT BE LATE.If you are MORE THAN 5 MINUTES LATE, YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN CLASS AND YOU WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. On time constitutes being in class, changed, and involved in the warm-up. This is for safety purposes. Warm up is a vital part of the class to prevent injury and to fully prepare the body for exercise. It is also respectful to your fellow students and instructor to be on time. Please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your class, dressed and fully prepared for class. Instructors are permitted to refuse entry into class and to lock the doors after the late entry period has passed.

NEW STUDENTS – You need to be at least 10 minutes early to your first visit in order to fill out the waiver and use the restroom. If you arrive after the start time of the class, we will not be able to admit you into class.

Please read our STUDIO POLICIES for more information.

When you purchase the Intro pack you will be directed to create a MindBody account. If you already have an account with another studio, you will still need to create a profile for Sky High. Once that’s done, you can go to our SCHEDULE page and click “Sign Up” for the class of your choice. You can also download our Sky High Studios app from either your iPhone or Google Play store. Once downloaded, use your Mindbody login information and start registering!

To protect the privacy and ensure that all of our students feel comfortable while taking class, we do not allow any spectators during classes. NO EXCEPTIONS. There are several of coffee shops and shopping plazas in the area that they can go to. They can also wait in the Antico Main lobby if they wish.

YES! All jewelry that can or will make contact with the poles must be removed prior to class. We do not want out poles damaged, and you most likely do not want your jewelry destroyed. Jewelry that must be removed includes but is not limited to rings, bracelets, necklaces, bands, fitbits and other exercise bracelets. 

No, you do not need shoes. The vast majority of our classes are taught barefoot. However, if you would like to bring a pair of heels to your classes then your are more than welcome to.

Are they necessary? Absolutely not, but they a hella fun! Most of our classes occur barefoot, but you are more than welcome to bring a pair of heels to any class that you are attending. Just be aware that heels will not work for every class so please check in with your instructors before class so see whether or not that heels will be functional for their class.

We however do NOT recommend anyone wearing heels when they are first learning how to pole. The last thing you need when you are working hard to learn advanced tricks and transitions is to trip, twist an ankle and faceplant on the floor. Get the basics down first before you add stilts to your rodeo.

Aside from adding a sexy vibe to your dance, wearing heels conditions you body for better balance, strength, agility, and coordination. Not to mention the make your butt look great!

Glad you asked! Check out our heels page HERE! 

Keep coming to class! Your grip strength will improve with continued practice. However, if you feel like you need some assistance, we have several types of grip aids on sale in the studio.

That being said, the average attendance per week is 2-3 times.

Like any other form of fitness or sports it is possible to injure yourself with Pole. The likelihood of injury is however significantly reduced by following a safe and well structured training program and by following the direction of an instructor. 

If you have a current medical injury, or have had significant injury in the past, we recommend consulting with your physician for guidance.

If you are nervous about starting any exercise program, especially with previous injuries or medical conditions, we recommend you consult with your physician. For your safety we do ask that you disclose any previous injuries and conditions to us, and in rare cases we may require a physician’s release to ensure there are no restrictions and you are ready for exercise.
