Now's time to Ask Pearcey......
"What do I wear?"
As I did my training with Vertical Dance and this is aimed closer to the fitness side of the industry as opposed to the thong & nipple tassle side. I would prefer that all participants wore fitness wear or something they feel comfortable in. As you progress in fitness & experience then you will realise that in order to do some moves on the pole an element of flesh needs to be exposed......
Footwear wise as this is a fitness based class, trainers are ideal but if you prefer bare foot is an option also.( Sorry you have to put those 6" stiletto's back in the box & hide them under the bed again
"Do I need to wear baby oil to make me spin faster?"
No creams or lotions should be worn for 24 hours before a class as when they come i to contact with the pole they can make it slippery and a health & safety issue.
"How many poles / people are in each class?"
We have four poles at The White Horse and there will only ever be at most – 3 people to a pole so you know exactly how much time you are going to get on the pole.
"Can my friends come and watch?"
If it’s a Taster Session, you are more than welcome to bring some girlie support. However during class this is strictly for participants only. I want to create a comfortable atmosphere in class so everyone grows together, relaxes and can dance, spin & fall together. What blunders happen in the classroom – STAY in the Classroom!
"Can boys join the class too?"
I have kept classes as single sex just so again it is a comfortable and relaxing environment. If you are a man and you want to learn pole dancing I can tailor a class I just need enough interest – Please email mail@iwouldratherbepoledancing.co.uk to log your interest.
"Do you run drop in sessions?"
Because of limited equipment (ie only 4 poles ) to run a drop in class would devalue the session for you as a participant. Life is sweet when there’s only 4 of you but if 24 turn up then you get to share the pole with 5 others? Nice?!
"What is your Refund Policy?"
No refunds can be taken for taster sessions or spaces on a course. As soon as payment is received you have then blocked anyone else from having that space. No-Shows are also non refundable. All monies for courses are to be paid upfront in full or a £20 deposit must be made to secure your place & the remaining balance to be paid on the first day of the course.
"I'm pregnant, can I still try out the class?"
Your body is going to go through some serious changes now is probably not the best time to start a new exercise regime? Stay active but I'm afraid pole dancing with me is a no, no ......... :o(
If you feel you have a question that hasn't been asked but would be helpful to know then please ask me & i'll be happy to answer it & add it to the list.......Email me on
