Beginner Pole 6-week series - Shakti Flow
Come home to yourself. This six-week series is your invitation to slow down, get curious about your body, and remember what it feels like to move just for you. Just you, the pole, and a little bit of magic.
Over six weeks, we will introduce you to the perfect mix of sensual movement and pole work, transforming the body and mind. You’ll build real foundational strength, learn to spin with grace and control, and start weaving movement into something that feels like yours. Expect sparkle, sweat, laughter, and the quiet thrill of surprising yourself.
Wear bikini bottoms or bike shorts (bare skin on legs helps with grip) . No footwear is required as we dance barefoot! Come ready to shine!
Next series begins on:
Wednesday August 19th @ 8:30 pm

Liquid Pole
Liquid Pole is everything Liquid Motion. The only difference is now the vertical pole is your apparatus in addition to the base of the pole and the floor. One of Liquid Motion's building blocks is rooted within ones connection to your sacral chakra located within your pelvis.

You will learn how to apply Liquid Motion's methodology by utilizing the 5 fundamentals and 5 techniques for floor work in your pole work to ultimately give you the fluidity to create that seamless organic flow you desire in your pole dance movement.
