About
Pole fitness is an excellent full-body workout that cross-trains very well with rock climbing as well as with most, if not all, of our other classes. It uses and builds on core strength, overall strength, flexibility, coordination, and body confidence.
Â
At Carabiner’s, our pole fitness classes focus not only on learning and perfecting new moves and techniques, but on your individual progress over time. Our instructors love to help students grow in skill and in confidence!
Â
We strive to provide a friendly, inclusive atmosphere in which to learn. All body types and genders are welcome. Classes are currently for ages 18+, but there is no upper limit.

We recommend comfortable shorts and a comfortable tank top or t-shirt. While leggins will work for most spins, it’s difficult to climb or do most tricks while wearing them, so we don’t recommend them for pole class. Classes are learned barefoot.
Â
At more advanced levels, students often wear shorts and a sports bra(or just shorts, as appropriate to gender). This is because more advanced moves require a wider variety of points of contact with the pole (Such as shoulder, back, sides, and stomach), and the grip of skin-to-pole contact (rather than fabric-to-pole) is helpful or necessary for many of these moves.
Â
Whatever level you are coming in at and whatever else you’re wearing, please do not wear lotion! It’s slippery, which makes everything in pole fit much more difficult. If you do have lotion on, please wash your hands before class.
