Inversion Dance Studios

This pole studio is probably the smallest one I’ve been to, there are 4 poles in the class. They are very tall poles so you can get a good practice on climbing! 2 of the poles are older and scuffed up, and 2 are newer and nicer. The old poles were installed in pieces so you can see they have little cut off marks which might get annoying for gripping. They have full length mirrors so you can see yourself do floor work, that’s a plus. It’s not my favorite of the pole studios that I’ve been to, but it is the nicest distance wise. The price isn’t the greatest, Embody still gives you the best bang for your buck. The instructors (whose names I cannot remember) were okay… I learned some cool new tricks the 2 times I went! The room seems to get pretty warm though, I remember always working up a sweat in the classes. It’s a good but also bad thing bc it’s harder to stick to the pole for tricks!

So we had a bachelorette party here and Jenny was very accommodating and so kind. The studio was big, clean, had its own bathroom. The rules were simple to follow and Jenny offered step by step instructions and was able to work with each of us. In just an hour we were taught a whole pole routine, a chair routine and some floor work. It was so intense, but so much fun. Not only did I work out but I had fun, didn’t even realize I was working up a sweat until I stopped between routines. It was perfect, and I will totally be back for more classes.

Jenny is amazing! She is Patient and very great at breaking down each move. I was able to ‘Invert’ on my first try!
The studio is clean and welcoming. I also love the family environment between all the ladies. It definitely makes one feel more comfortable beginning to venture into the ‘Pole’ world!
If you’re wondering if these classes are genuinely ‘Fitness’ classes, they are. The day after my first class, my core was extremely sore! It hurt so good!

I went earlier this morning and let me tell you THIS WAS A HARDCORE WORKOUT. Well, you probably already knew that haha But I had a blast going into the Intro Class! There was only me and another girl so one on one instructions was a given. Oh and for those who were wondering, you do have to be 18 years old but if you’re like me, meaning 17, they have a waiver for your parents to sign. Even though the class is about an hour long it does feel longer than that because you learn so many things in such little time; even the Intro class, it provided a lot of content. Definitely coming again! :)

So, I got the bright idea to attend pole dancing classes. I feel like I needed that self confidence boost and this was gonna do it! Adding a sprinkle of sexy never hurt anyone! This class seemed the most beginner friendly. The owner, Jenny is a doll and super helpful.
I just attended my first Beginner Pole Class today. My first pole class EVER! This class is NO JOKE! Stretching was amazing! And for you germaphobes, they wipe down the mats after every use! You don’t know how much upper body strength you DON’T have, until you take this class. Reena is such a sweetheart (much appreciated for those of you who are like me-​with 2 left feet, no core strength and no dancing experience). She is very patient and explains the moves without intimidating you or making you feel like a complete newb.
The environment of the studio is great. All the girls I saw were very friendly and supportive. I did not get the judgement vibe at all (which was what I was worried about). It’s great to finally get a dance move down. The studio is very nice and protected from public view. The temperature is comfortable and the lights are dim (for those of you like me who are a little on the curvy side).
Bring a towel, water, idk if they allow it, but I may just bring workout gloves, because those poles are SLIPPERY!!! I suggest wearing booty shorts and a fitted tank if you want to be comfortable. You need skin to make contact with the pole (yes, it hurts), so the shorter the shorts, the easier contact you will have with the pole. Expect bruises (on your knees, shins, and crotch), no one said sexy wasn’t painful, because it is. Come in slippers, bc class is conducted barefooted or in stripper heels (which they sell for about $ 50).
With all that said, I absolutely LOVED it and will be back for SURE! If you’re looking for a place to start, this is it! Cant wait to try out all the instructors! Highly recommend! BTW, they have a special Twerkshop coming up. No Joke! I hope to attend!
Pole dancing attempt? #NailedIt #kinda

I purchased the starter package online and I was not sure what to expect.
First off, Jenny is nice and very patient with each student. She really takes the time to go one on one. I was a little embarrassed at first and a little shy, but every one makes you feel welcomed!
I took two beginners and a spinning pole class. However, I would not recommend taking the spinning pole classes if your just a beginner.
Overall, I loved it! I am now hooked and purchased another student package.
It’s a great workout I was sore for days thanks to Tanya! Would recommend to any one who wants to try something different! and wants to spice things up!

I just recently started class at Inversion Dance Studio’s and have been really impressed with the quality of the instructors training and ability to explain the techniques. Jenny has been excellent at scheduling appointments for me and my friends and has been able to answer all my questions. Everyone has been so nice and welcoming and makes it so easy to go and try things that I wouldn’t normally do.

I absolutely love going here! The girls and Jenny are truly amazing people and everyone is so welcoming. Being new to the pole community, I had my reservations, but Jenny and her instructors are awesome. The students who dance here are also so encouraging and welcoming. It’s truly a judgment –free zone. Thanks ladies! You’re are the bestest!

I’m going to be going to this thing one day and I am scared sh*tless.
… Let’s do this. What should I expect ~

I first visited inversion because trying a pole class was on my bucket list… I became instantly addicted! Everyone at inversion is great– the teachers all have different backgrounds and dance styles that they bring making each teachers class unique. However, the staff is great! You may feel clumsy and awkward your first few classes but the instructors are wonderful and encouraging!
When i first came to inversion I thought what kind of girls do pole fitness?
First the instructors are all college educated and the majority of students are middle aged with amazing careers (vets, nurses, moms, students pursuing a masters degree…
These are classy women pursuing pole fitness as a form of fitness and self improvement/​expression. The class is spent conditioning, laughing, climbing, and learning a routine.
Over my several months at inversion I have witnessed several body transformations as pole takes a lot of upper body/​core strength. The classes are so fun you may not realize your working out until the next day when you can’t walk and your covered in bruises! Every type of music is played and as you gain competence you are moved up to the next level.
I absolutely LOVE inversion and I know you will too.

New location, new studio all new to me. Trying out something new for my lady had the pleasure on meeting Jenny, she is very knowledge, perfectionist on her dance moves showed me a small sample of her work and told me my lady would love the work out experience also advice me to bring her in on the free dance night coming up. check out inversion dance studio in Brea CA for more information…

Omgsh! LOVE Inversion! Super fun, exciting, different way of getting a great workout. Never a dull moment and the teachers are all super nice and patient especially Jenny. She makes you feel very comfortable and dedicates individual time to each and every person in the class. Class sizes are 8 max and the small group setting is ideal for this type of dance. I can’t wait to come back. :) Thanks Jenny!

This was SO much fun!
Tried out a beginners class with my girlfriend and had a heck of a time swinging/​sliding on and off poles, looking like a goof ball.
The instructor, Evangeline (I think she goes by Van), was such a sweet heart. She was a little woman with a lot of strength and also a lot of sass when it comes to working a pole. The hour class is actually not spent entirely learning moves and technique. The beginning begins with light stretching, flexibility and some strengthening moves like a few gentle push ups. Then she teaches you a simple routine but does a great job breaking it down into bite-​size pieces that are easy to understand, especially great for beginners. All of the ladies there are so fun and supportive, which makes the class even more fun.
I would consider myself more of a book worm geek type of girl, but had a great time searching for that inner sex kitten pole dancer inside of me while getting in a good work out. I left with battle bruises on my legs and a new found respect for any girl that is able to manipulate their bodies so artfully around a pole.
Classes are $ 30 which is a bit steep which is probably the biggest reason I won’t be taking more classes, but I believe they have a 3 class/​$ 45 new student special.

If you’ve ever wanted to unleash your inner sex kitten and master the art of pole dancing, then this is the place for you! I’ve been curious about pole dancing and I’ve always wondered what it would be like to attempt this. First of all, this is NOT easy and it requires a lot of upper body strength. I pulled muscles in my arms and thigh during my first class but I was determined to follow through with this adventure.
I never thought that this was easy and honestly, it’s more challenging than it looks. I don’t have a background in dance/​ballet so at times, things were awkward. Pelvic thrusts come naturally as you work the pole. However, spinning and climbing are require balance and upper body strength. Our instructor was patient and was able to assist me when I lacked confidence.
Women in this class are very supportive and no one makes you feel inadequate. Some ladies had more experience and seemed effortless while others, including myself are still becoming more comfortable with this new experience. Some of us chose to go barefoot while other ladies wore stripper heels. Women in here ooze confidence and really embrace the pole.
I was relieved to see that men aren’t in the class to observe. There is a large wall that offers privacy from prying eyes as people walk past this facility. The poles are located on the other side of the wall! Whew!
I can say that I’ve finally found a hobby that challenges me more than anything that I’ve done in the past. I may have bruises and strained muscles but I’m determined to follow through with this sport!

I used to wander around the gym for exercising and losing weight.
But I skipped often the gym because the treadmill was so boring.
On the other hand I felt guilty.
I looked for other ways to exercise.
That moment, I found the inversion dance studio on the Internet.
I’ve watched several pole dancing performance at youtube.
Suddenly I felt interested in learning pole dance.
POLE DANCE IN MY LIFE?
This is so unexpected! I know!
Why don’t you just try?
Finally
I visited the studio for the first time a year ago.
I booked the spinning pole class at first.
Because I just wanted to spin around a pole. LOL
But it was my mistake.
The spinning pole class was an intermediate level.
Thankfully, Jenny taught the class in a beginner level for me. haha
The class is small group.(4~8 persons)
Basically, there are three levels.
Beginner /​Intermediate /​Advanced (and stretching, fluidity dance, ballet)
we can learn dance routines or moves to other classes.
The last 10 minutes of the class is free dance time.
Free dance is good for expressing my own character with music.
Also, it’s possible to watch performance of classmates.
This studio’s ceiling is high, so pole structure is also high.
When I dance on the top of the pole, I feel great!
Every teacher has good ability to teach students.
They make friendly atmosphere and help to do my best at the class.
My simple goal was just to lose weight at the first time,
but it has been changed while learning pole dance over the last year.
I realized that If I can amuse myself then I can amuse the others.
Love myself, Express myself, Accept myself!
It’s much better than Diet!
That is Huge turning point in my life!
I really thank to the classmates and teacher of the inversion studio.
Also I am entirely happy to endorse here.

I think they need to do a better job of cleaning.
I’ve been to other studios, and this one is lacking a bit in that department. (The bathroom is very clean though)
The floors are quite dirty (I try not to walk barefoot anymore, because when you do certain moves, I can see everyone has blackened feet — GROSS).
It doesn’t seem like they clean the exercise mats (ugh I can smell the funk on them when we lie on them).
I am not as much a fan of having 2 students/​pole because obviously some people use grip, and some of us prefer none. This part I can live with though. Just please clean the floors and mats a little better!
Otherwise, the instructors are all fabulous and the studio layout is great (mirrors, 14 ft poles?)

What a great workout. Mad respect for people who can swing around the pole. It takes a lot of different skills and muscles. I really enjoyed coming here and I was excited to learn two spins on day 1 and also to attempt to climb up the pole.

This is the perfect place if you enjoy a more personal setting for learning. With a small class size (max 8) you get a lot of one on one time with the instructor. I have taken pole at 2 other studios and like this one the best. I’ve been a student here since thei

I have been going to Inversion Dance Studios on and off for 4 years now. I have gone to other studios in between but have always returned to Inversion. This is a great studio to stay in shape, have fun, build your self confidence, increase your stamina.
I’ve been to other studios where they don’t really care about the students and stick their noses up at you because they’re new. Not at Inversion. Inversion makes everyone feel welcome.
The instructors are attentive, patient, fun, and are great inspirations. The owner is down to earth and really wants the best for her students. They create an environment where you will really be able to relax, feel comfortable with your surroundings and your sexuality, and enjoy staying in shape. It’s not just the instructors, but because the instructors are so dedicated to creating such a safe haven for pole fitness, it translates to the students who are then also incredibly encouraging and supportive to each other.
The owner has created the perfect guidelines and ways of teaching. I haven’t seen a way of teaching pole fitness that is as effective at other studios as at Inversion. Every instructor follows a uniform guideline when it comes to the lesson plans which is great for the students because students will have consistency even when they have a new instructor when they go up levels.
The best part is the small class sizes here. This is what sets Inversion apart from all other pole fitness studios. With a smaller class size, the instructors can focus more of their attention on each student, perfecting each move, each pose, and get to know each pole dancer.
If you want to find something different, fun, and challenging, I highly recommend Inversion Dance Studios.
