Tip of the week

Pole beginners - When doing your spins, keep your arms stretched high. Try to hang all of your weight vs. trying to lift with your biceps. When you hang from your arms and creat a big "swoop" with your legs, you will enjoy a much smoother and faster spin. I try to make at least three rotations on all of my spins.


For the more advanced pole dancer - When trying a shoulder mount, pull on the pole as if you were trying to throw a 200 lb man over your shoulder. Shoulder mounting is about the arms and abs not about the legs.



Also, when doing any invert, try to avoid springing off of your leg or swinging into an invert. You will get more physical benefits if you use your core and your arms to lift yourself upside down. Momentum and swinging is like training wheels. Once you don't need them anymore, get rid of them and never go back!

Pole dance combinations!

Through our student survey, I had many of you request that we have a pole class that was more dance oriented. Well, I have come up with a class for you!

Pole Dance Combinations
Ogden location (Midvale class coming soon)
Every Wednesday starting October 27th
6:00-7:00pm

Class description: It's the class you've all been waiting for! In pole dance combinations, you will start putting together your pole moves in a fun but challenging combination put to music. This is only for intermediate and advanced pole fitness students. Get that heart rate up and start dancing with your pole! In this class, you will share a pole with another student who will help with spotting, safety, and taking turns to allow the other to catch her breath.

Student survey results.

I will be looking over the student survey results in the coming days. Lots of great constructive criticism as well as many compliments. Thank you!

Here are a few fun facts that I learned from the survey:
The favorite class is pole fitness followed by aerial silk

84% of members were satisfied with the services we offer. If I'm a politician, I'm golden. However, I would like to improve upon this number :)

90% of students said they would likely continue their membership once it has expired. That's great!

I asked each participant of the survey to give us some constructive criticism. Here are a few suggestions we received:

"I'd love to see more dance related items for sale(hip scarves,leotards, etc).And more of an emphasis on the other (traditional) dance classes,not just pole."

"I would like to see more advanced level classes for pole and silks. If possible twice a week in Ogden. I also love taking the intermediate silks at Midvale, but having it at 8-9 and then driving back home get me home pretty late. Is there anyway that an intermediate class could be offered at an earlier time on a Tuesday or Thursday?"

"Please bring Wednesday night Kick Boxing back! :)"

"I would like to incorporate more dance into pole. In terms of putting moves together so they flow and general dance etc. Not necessarily routines you feed us, but like "you can do this to transition these moves" and then sometimes say okay everyone put on this song and you all come up with your own freestyle. etc"

I am personally reading every comment and I will do my very best to make the necessary changes that will help make your experience better! You can still weigh in on the student survey. Arrow down and find the origional student survery blog post.

Thank you for your input!!!!

The inside of Blue.

I love watching people as they walk on the sidewalks outside of the studio. People see the word pole fitness on our front doors and their curiosity goes crazy. They will stand out there forever, but never come in. So, for all you curious little cats, here is what Ogden's most risque' dance studio looks like :)

The very exciting and sexy pole room where all the "magic" happens!

Lots of seating for those waiting for the next class.


Main dance floor for our more traditional classes (jazz, hip hop, pilates, etc)


Botique for all of your dance clothing needs.

Sin workshops coming!

I am meeting with the best exotic dancer in Utah this week! We are planning a six week workshop with dancer "Sin". Each week workshop students will learn a new exotic dance element. Learn lap dance, how to do super sexy hair and make up, floor work, rails tricks, and more will be covered. I will keep you posted on the details.

This workshop is definately something to get excited about. Lots of exotic dancers are good at what they do, but very rarely do you find a woman who is not only a great dancer, but an amazing and relevant teacher.

I will update you next week on all the details.

One argument....two examples

Arguement #1 - Pole fitness is headed to the olympics:


Argument #2 - Pole fintess will never make it to the olympics (watch the whole thing):


I hope some of you got a good laugh like I did.
