Frequently Asked Questions

 

Do I need experience to start?

Not at all. Many of our students are brand new to pole, aerial or movement in general. Start with Where You Rise (beginner pole) or Center of Gravity (aerial hoop) — we’ll guide you every step of the way.

 


 

What should I wear to class?

Each class has different clothing recommendations. You’ll find “what to wear” tips listed with each class, but don’t stress — comfort and movement always come first. No need to buy anything fancy before you start.

 


 

I’m nervous about trying pole/aerial — is that normal?

Totally normal. We get it. And we’re here to make you feel supported, not judged. You don’t need to be strong, flexible or confident to start — but we promise, you’ll build all three along the way.

 


 

Is the studio inclusive?

Yes. LaKiTa Dance is a space for every body, identity and background. We are queer-led, radically inclusive and committed to making sure you feel seen, respected and safe here.

 


 

Am I too old / too out of shape / too [insert worry here] to join?

Nope. Movement is for everyone. We meet you where you are and build from there — no matter your age, size, ability or experience.

 


 

Do I have to wear heels?

Only if you want to! Some classes are heels-specific (Strapped, Tip + Grip), but most are barefoot-friendly. We’ll always tell you what’s needed ahead of time.

 


 

What do I need to bring?

Water, kneepads (for most floor and pole classes) and a good attitude. Optional: grip aids, socks, heels (if needed) and your favorite playlist vibe.

 


 

How do I book?

Head to our [Booking Page] and choose your class. You’ll see all the info you need, including prerequisites and what to wear. Not sure where to start? DM us — we’re happy to help.

 


 

Can I come just to watch or try it out?

We don’t allow observers during class (for everyone’s comfort) but you’re always welcome to reach out and ask questions before booking. We’ve got you.
