Traditional Pole Fitness
Traditional pole classes use a securely mounted pole anchored at both the floor and ceiling. Students learn foundational pole skills, strength-building techniques, dance elements, spins, climbs, and advanced tricks through a progressive training system.
These classes are perfect for beginners and experienced students alike. If you're searching for pole classes in Kalispell, Elevated Aerial Studio is proud to be one of the only place offering this innovative discipline.
Flying Pole Classes
Flying pole is one of the most exciting and unique movement disciplines available in Montana. Unlike a traditional pole, a flying pole is suspended from above and free at the bottom, allowing for dynamic movement, spinning, and aerial transitions.
Flying pole combines the athletic strength of pole dancing with the beauty and artistry of aerial arts. Students often describe it as one of the most rewarding forms of movement they've ever experienced.
