Primal currently has 1 pole. This was a conscious choice. There is something very special and inspiring about a group of women coming together to breathe and dance. As we learn to let go and we are cheered on by other women, something unique happens... we feel welcomed and accepted by other women... something that rarely happens in this world, and it is something I want to create more of.
Women generally start off by wearing comfy workout clothes. When your comfort level raises, you are free and encouraged to wear clothing that makes you feel sexy. Shoes are not required, although fun! Lotion should not be worn to class; it makes you to slippery on the pole. As you become a more advanced dancer, you will find that the less clothing worn, the better, since the friction from your skin on the pole helps do some of the tricks. In NO WAY is nudity required, although, some of the outfits have been known to be racy.
Depending on which class you choose to participate in, a warm-up will always happen. I Soul Pole, there is is a non-denominational meditation with sprinkles of new age spiritualism, that focuses mainly on present mindfulness. This is a time where you will be encouraged to stretch and gently warm the muscles up. Also, this gives your mind a chance to have a relaxing break from the noise that surrounds our lives. This is sometimes the only time a woman gets to sit quietly, and where the only expectation of her is to breathe.
Refunds are generally not given. Your punch card is good for 6 months. We believe this is ample time for you to arrange schedules, take trips, while still enjoying some kick-ass pole dancing! Of course, there are circumstances where you may feel entiteled to a refund. We will approach this on a case by case basis. The point is, if you purchase a punch card, come take pole dancing! You'll be glad you did!
Our intention is for body and self-acceptance and greater awareness of sexuality. While physical benefits are inherent, this is not the focus.
