Playful, Sensual, Liberating.

READY TO GET STARTED?

The majority of new clients that join Wild Orchid haven’t had any pole experience. Therefore, all new members start with our Foundations Program. It’s designed to introduce you to our methodology, core movements, and the rhythm of our classes. Foundations is a learning experience, not a gut check. You can’t “fail” the program. After you complete the 4 week course you’ll be ready to jump into our drop-in classes and start moving safely and beautifully!

Pole Conditioning & Flexibility

Prerequisite: None

Students will become more familiar with the pole in space, as well as applying movement to music. Have no dance experience? No worries! Catching onto choreography may be challenging at first, but students are excited to find that learning and grasping choreography is a skill that also develops over time.
