So you want to take pole dance classes at our Marin World Dance Fitness studio? Here's what you need to know.

What to expect

 - No prancing around the the pole like many strip club pole dancers do. This is not the pole dancing we teach.

- Pole dancing is as sensual or athletic as you want it to be. You decide how to approach it.

- Initially, you don’t need excessive upper body strength. You will get stronger as you continue -- in upper body, legs and especially abs!
