About Mind Body & Pole
Mind Body & Pole LLC. (M.B.P) officially opened in April 2023. We are a unisex studio offering many different pole fitness, stretch & meditation classes. We also host private parties & workshops! M.B.P. was established with the idea that pole fitness is a mental & physical sport. This led to our Stretch & Meditation class being a regular part of our schedule. Through the owners own pole journey she found that, if you work on your mental wellbeing as well as your physical wellbeing, your progress will be plentiful.
We take great pride in being able to provide a safe and judgment free space for everyone! All pole lovers are welcome here! Here at M.B.P. you are bound to make new friends & new memories.

We highly recommend our students try out all of the classes offered. We also highly recommend trying out classes with each of our instructors. You will encounter different teaching methods & learn different styles of pole dance from each one.
If you already have some experience in pole, let us help continue your pole journey & perfect the moves you've been working on. We train both sides of our body here at M.B.P., so prepare to get strong! If pole is something you've always wanted to try, take the leap! We will be with you every step of the way.
