Answer to your questions.


As many of you know, we have sold the Midvale studio to a pair of current students. The new owners are Shae Myers and Aly Jackson. They are very excited to be a part of the the Adult Dance and Fitness family.

I sold the studio to these ladies mainly because the commute was pretty intense. It takes an hour and half each way and it was wearing on my family. I am getting married on December 30th and I have a 5 year old daughter. I want to start off the New Year on the right foot and put my family first :)

I will still own, operate, and teach at the Ogden studio.

Here are a few questions I have run into from current students of the Midvale location:

Q: What will happen to my membership?
A: Your membership will continue as normal at the same great price. All existing members can still attend classes at both studio's until the time that thier membership expires. At that time, you will need to either commit to Ogden or Midvale.

Q: What will the studio be called?
A: Same name, just different owners. Pearl by Adult Dance & Fitness

Q: How will I schedule my classes for the Midvale location?
A: The Midvale location will have a separate website as of December 23rd. You will be able to find a link to this website from the Ogden website and this blog.

Q: Will I ever get over the separation anxiety?
A: Yes! The average students won't know a difference. In fact, the new owners plan to do a remodel and make the classes and the building more functional.

Q: Will the pricing and promotions be the same for both studio's?
A: No. This is not becoming a franchise. They will be two separate studio's and they will have pricing dependent upon the owners and the demand for classes. If you already have a membership, your price will continue at the rate until it expires. At that time, you can repurchase a new membership.

Q: When will the schedules and websites be split?
A: The schedules and websites will be split on December 23rd. Ogden location will be open for classes December 26th-30th. Midvale will be closed for these four days due to the remodel. I know it's a big break, but the Midvale students will greatly benefit from the physical changes that will be made during this time.

I have had dozens of e-mails from students expressing how much they will miss me. I am so flattered that I will be missed. I put alot of my emotions and thoughts into that studio and I am sad to see it go. But if I'm being honest, it will be managed much better than I was able to do it. The new owners are so excited to get to know all of the students and they are very eager to hear your questions, comments, and concerns.

I will always be at our Ogden location. Please come see me every once in a while, and I will make the trip to Midvale often for workshops, classes, and recitals.

If you have questions, send them to danceogden@gmail.com

Thank you for being understanding. These changes are going to be awesome!!!

A very Jersey Christmas party.

This past weekend, a few of the students and teachers of ADF performed at the Paulie D concert. There were over 2,000 people in attendance and all eyes were on our aerial silk performers.

I have to say that I had a blast and Paulie D was just as gorgeous in person as he is on TV :) We didn't get to meet him, but here are some pictures of the girls in action

APFA pole competition winners!

The American Pole Fitness Association hosted their first annual pole competition this past October and a local Utah woman won a few titles.

Zoraya Judd competed and won first runner up and was also given the title of "Pole Athlete of the Year". Zoraya lives in Utah with her husband and two boys. We love Zoraya because she was the winner of the first competition that Adult Dance and Fitness hosted in 2009. Since then, she has been taking the pole world by storm winning titles and traveling the world.

We still host competitions at the studio and I know that any one of our competitors are capable of greatness if given a platform to gain confidence and strength. That's why local studio's and competition's are so important for a dancers growth. I will continue to host quarterly competitions and who knows?.. Maybe we will find another Zoraya Judd or Becca Butcher one day.

Check out her APFA video below:



The APFA is a pole fitness association that invites all pole enthusiast to join free of charge. They will keep you up to date on National and World pole events and news. And, you also get a free APFA sticker for joining.
