PA Pole Academy

I’ve been here for 2 private parties, and they do not disappoint! Hands on with showing you how to do the moves, super friendly, sweet, and personable! You’ll wake up the next day sore, in the best possible way! This is the new way my friends and I will celebrate events, having a blast and getting in a workout!

I am just starting back to excersice after 3 years of sitting on the couch! I wanted to supplement my gym workouts. I was intimidated after watching videos online.
BUT, there is nothing intimidating about this group of women, you feel welcome and really encouraged. All sizes and shapes are doing this. It is what you make it. Its hard and definitely an intense core and upper body workout. So, I will be going back. Allie and Ariana were so helpful and the other more experienced girls are happy to help! Pleasantly surprised.

I had no idea it could ever be SO MUCH FUN to workout (not to mention how great of a work out it was!). I NEVER saw myself as a dancer (let alone a pole dancer), I had no experience with any sort of dance or gymnastics, and not an ounce of upper body strength. I was a little worried on the car ride to the studio, but my doubts were shattered when I walked through the doors. Both the instructors and the other students were so kind, helpful, and talented. You’d think a dance studio full of females would be intimidating and catty, but the PA Pole Academy is the polar opposite; Everybody is SO sweet, accepting, and inviting REGARDLESS of your skill level. It was also nice to see all of the different classes that the studio offers, not limited to just pole class, there are also Lyra, Aerial Hammocks, Dance classes, Strength building classes, and Flexibility Classes. There’s no doubt about it, PA Pole Academy is THE place to have an awesome time and get in shape.

This place is THE place to get the best workout… while still having FUN!!! I bet you probably didn’t even think that having fun while working out is possible! PA Pole Academy is tucked away in Doylestown and offers an amazing variety of classes from Intro to Pole, to Aerial Hammock, Cardio Dance, Lyra and more advanced pole classes! Everyone is so sweet and nice and really creates a comfortable environment to work out. I am on the shy side, but the welcoming nature of all the girls who work here made me feel super confident when trying something new. I have been going here for a while now and even hosted a Bachlorette Party for one of my girlfriends here! We had a blast! Try it!!!

Its sad to say how much a business can change. The teachers after a while started to pick favorites. Some would ignore you in class and only help certain students. Its very very «clicky» here and if youre gone for more then a week… youre not in the click its quite sad. Its a good gym if you’re going every day but if youre going once in a while youre going to get lost in the back and ignored. The beginner classes are always doing the same thing, dont think you’ll move up with out some help from others (meaninv students there because the teachers everyone but steph are in their own world). When you get to intermediate its really like advanced, You’re lost. But their kickboxing classes are awesome though, Jamal makes the place worth it.

I was interested in trying the hot new fitness trend-​pole dancing. My friends had tried another studio and said it was a super fun workout. Well boy did I make a mistake going to this place! First of all the ladies running the place were not welcoming at all. This was new to me-​the least they could do is show me in and where I could put my things. Instead they were too worried about their tan lines and fake eye lashes.
I should have left then but I stayed for a beginner class where I spent an hour being talked down to. So much for instructors-​mind you this was my first time ever even touching a pole. When I struggled to get a grip on the slippery thing the instructor blamed me for not being in shape enough to handle it.
After an hour of not being able to do much other than some basic stripper moves (involving little fitness, if any) one woman (maybe the owner?) was finally done talking about high heels and lip plumper and decided now would be a good time to try to sign me up for a really great «deal». Ha. Maybe if the staff wasn’t so rude and your fitness classes involved fitness I would consider coming back-​do for now no thanks.

I really love this pole studio!!!
It’s great that there is a studio in this area of the Philly suburbs. There are no other ones nearby really… and this studio has all you need. Fitness, fun, tanning (even though I’m not a artificial tanner)
The studio is very cute. I love the pink. It’s open and the poles are a good height for climbing. I felt so out of shape because I hadn’t been poling for 2 – 3 months (sad how quick some skills can go away) But I had basically a one-​on-​one session so I went at a good pace for me.
I’ve been to different studios that have varying degrees of fitness integration but this one definitely puts fitness first. You will leave feeling like you got a good workout!
Also, PA Pole Academy has the cutest shirts of any studio I’ve been to. Whenever I’m back in the area I’d totally come back for a drop in. Good job PA Pole Academy!
