There’s so much to be grateful for this season. The top of the list? You. Our students, our community, our humans — you’re what make Sanctuary of Pole so special. Here’s to gratitude, growth, and good spins this month.

Happy Halloween from all of us at Sanctuary of Pole! Stay safe and have a hauntingly good time 🎃

Y’all… our 1st Sanctuary of Pole showcase was EVERYTHING! We had the BEST crowd with the incredible @theeglitterous leading, killer performances, and most importantly….this is the best damn pole family a mama could ask for. Everyone worked hard, my students shined, and made me one proud pole mom!

Time to rest those muscles and start scheming the next one.

Under the lights tonight, the magic awakens. The wait is over — Tales from the pole hits the stage tonight! Come for the art, stay for the chills. Costumes are welcome — tickets available on Eventbrite or at the door. See you in the shadows.

✨ Meet Grimm ✨

She flies, she spins, she smells amazing!! Grimm is a Lyra lover (9 years strong), pole performer (8 months), dedicated teacher, mama of two adorable girls, and our resident soap-making queen. Come see her perform *blindfolded* tomorrow evening! 🎃

Now *this* is what community collaboration looks like!
We had the honor of collaborating with @greenvilleboudoir this past weekend, and working alongside @latoyadixonsmith was nothing short of inspiring. Her creativity, authenticity, and light remind us why community matters so deeply. At Sanctuary of Pole, we believe in the power of women coming together — to uplift, to celebrate, and to make space for one another’s growth. When we connect, we create something bigger than any one of us: a movement of strength, confidence, and compassion. Here’s to collaboration, sisterhood, and the magic that happens when women empower women.

We’re so proud to be part of the Greenville Aerial Collective (@gvlaerialcollective) — a beautiful collaboration between aerial studios across the Upstate! These shots by @secondstar.creative perfectly capture the beauty of that moment — so proud of all the performers, and you’ll see a couple familiar faces at our performance on Sunday!

✨ Meet Cheshire ✨
She’s been defying gravity for 3 years with her love of all things aerial — and trust us, she makes it look way too easy. When she’s not spinning in the air, she’s slaying as an incredible hair colorist, sipping coffee like it’s a sport, and sneaking in chapters of a good book.
A badass mom, a fiercely loyal friend, and always down to try something new — Erika is the strong, beastly goddess you want in your corner (or your aerial class).
Catch her in the studio being her radiant, powerful self — just don’t challenge her to a plank-off. You’ll lose.

We’re beyond excited to welcome Ashlie from @strange.birds.studio to the Sanctuary of Pole family for Tales from the Pole! 🧟‍♀️

From the moment we connected, her warmth and openness made it feel like a perfect fit. We can’t wait for our community to experience her incredible work — be sure to check out her page to see the magic she creates.

Two of our Teachers in Training took Vegas by the pole. They hit up the original studio that started it all — yes, THE OG @polefitnessstudio. They went for the skills, stayed for the sparkle, and brought their next-level energy. 12/10

Had an unforgettable time guesting at ReThink Techno earlier this fall — amazing energy, new faces, and a chance to share some of our sound with a crowd that gets it. Grateful for the support and love between our communities

We’re keeping the momentum going with our next show on October 26th — would love to see some of you there - you might catch some familiar faces 😈

Let’s keep building together.

✨ Meet Amanda Box ✨

With 13 years of silks and Lyra behind her, Amanda knows her way around the air. But a year and a half ago, she discovered Fly Pole at Sanctuary of Pole — and a new obsession took flight. Now she’s back for her second Fly Pole performance — serving danger with a side of control, and a little poison in every pose. This is power, precision, and just the right amount of “don’t mess with me.”Catch Amanda at next weekend’s showcase — and prepare to be gripped.

Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf…?

We’re beyond thrilled to introduce @frankii_fae, the insanely talented makeup artist behind the magic of Tales from the Pole!

As an aerialist herself, she gets the artistry and passion of our world, and she’s pouring her heart into our studio. Her incredible talent and vision are bringing our characters to life in the most spellbinding way.

We’re so stoked to have her on our team and can’t wait to share the final results ✨
Check out her amazing work and give her a follow!

We call it a lollipop, but it’s less sugar, more sweat 😅
Who knew sweet could be this strong?

Hold onto your wigs and grab a grip, babes — ‘cause @theeglitterous has entered the chat!

We’re gagged to welcome this fierce queen as our MC for Tales from the Pole — ready to guide you through a night of death drops, sky-high tricks, and jaw-dropping flips. And honey... who knows *what else* she’ll pull out of her sequins sleeve?

One thing’s for sure: you’re in for a night of camp and choreography.

Let the tales unfold. Let the poles spin. And let **Thee Glitterous** take you there.

#TalesFromThePole #Drag #TheeGlitterous #SanctuaryOfPole #SlayAllDay #yeahthatgreenville #HostedByRoyalty #lgbtqia #community

We’re not just a studio — we’re a family. Built on trust, shared experiences, and real love. We’ve got each other’s backs, always.

Every time a new pole sibling walks through the doors, it’s a rush — because we know we’re meeting a lifelong friend.

⚓️ Ahoy, you saucy scallywags! ⚓️
On the lookout for a spooky, sexy show this October? Well shiver me timbers — you’ve found it.
Tales from the Pole sets sail October 26th at 6 PM, and trust us... this ship is stacked. Expect tricks, treats, and a whole lotta treasure — if you’re lucky, you might even find some booty worth plundering.

There’s something so powerful about pole — the perfect blend of grace and grit. It demands strength, discipline, and trust in your body… but the real magic happens when you bring it all together in a performance.

Amber and Becca lit up the stage at theSpring Showcase with the @gvlaerialcollective, embodying everything we love about this art form: power, connection, and pure JOY.

We’re so proud of these two incredible Sanctuary students — what a moment! 💜

We’re on the prowl this October. Catch us in our natural habitat: fierce, feline, and flipping upside down.

✨MEET SPINNERELLA ✨ 
“Just your friendly (sometimes) neighborly weirdo 😅 who loves animals, chains, and... some people. (Shoutout to my bat friend Kat for summing me up perfectly 🤣🦇) I got into pole to break outta my comfort zone and get stronger—turns out, pole has been one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. Major life upgrade unlocked.”

Congratulations to the new bride!
We absolutely loved celebrating with you!
Thank you for booking your bachelorette party with us!!
Book your party with us today!

✨ Meet Twisted Ivy ✨

“38, wife, mama of two (Keyana, 17 & Julian, 12), and a loud, proud, sober baddie with 14 years under my belt! I’m all about hiking in nature, vibing to the sound of water, spontaneous road trips, and turning everyday moments with my kids into the best memories. Pole found me when I needed it most — it’s my therapy, my confidence, my freedom. Nothing compares to the love and energy I get from my pole fam — they’re everything. When I’m spinning, climbing, or just vibing? I feel powerful, sexy, and unstoppable.”

We bring Ogre-the-top energy. 🐸 Cue the swampy slay moves, and keep it shrexy!

@shrekrave - you ready for a collab?

🌟 Meet Suki 🌟

I’m SO excited to be debuting in my first pole showcase with my amazing doubles partner Cazz! I started pole about a year ago (with a bit of sling & ballet in the mix) and quickly fell in love — not just with the movement, but with the community, creativity, and challenge it brings. I love how pole pushes me physically and mentally, while creating space for connection, expression, and all the silly, beautiful moments in between. Outside the studio, you’ll find me dancing through techno nights, chasing new adventures, and diving into creative projects (from papercrafts to crochet) — always surrounded by my favorite humans and a couple of very spoiled kitties 🖤

#sanctuaryofpole #yeahthatgreenville #localbusiness #smallbusiness #womanowned #ﬁtness

From idea to execution — the journey is everything. Watching my students go from the early stages of ideation, experimenting with poses, and refining their movement week after week has been incredible. It’s not just about the final product, but the growth, discipline, and creativity they pour into the process.
Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it.

#sanctuaryofpole #yeahthatgreenville #localbusiness #womanowned #community #pole

Huge thanks to Enrique Salinas from @foxcarolinanews for spending time with us at Sanctuary of Pole! 🙏✨ Your presence brought so much joy and truly reflected our mission: creating a space that’s welcoming to all, rooted in community, and fueled by the strength we build together every day. Grateful for a fun and inspiring evening!

✨ Meet Poltergabs ✨

Hi! I’m Gabs. I’ve been flying high with aerials for over a year now, but I fell head over heels (literally) for pole at the start of this year – and I’ve loved every inch of it.

Pole makes me feel like the strongest, sparkliest version of myself ✨💪 It’s where I found power, grace, and a whole lot of sass. When I’m not upside down in class, you can catch me wrangling my three dogs 🐾, leveling up in video games 🎮, or serving looks in cosplay 🎭.
Currently working toward my instructor certification (so watch out 👀), and I also run the social media & marketing magic over at @sanctuaryofpole 💻💕

Behind every flawless performance is someone who sees the details no one else does. At Sanctuary of Pole @kilokittybuhrmaster pours so much heart into studio performances. We exude care, and creativity - with an obsession with getting it just right make us shine. ✨💪💃 #poleinspiration #poleinstagram #bts #yeahthatgreenville #smallbusinessowner #community #PolePerfection

✨ Meet Moonbeam ✨

“I’m Emma! I started pole about a year ago after training silks & lyra—and even though I once thought I was the least sexy person alive, I was instantly hooked after my first class. 🖤 The support, the fun, and the challenge keep me coming back!

Off the pole, I teach yoga, hang out with my pups Charlie & Barkley, and fuel up with coffee, books, and cooking. Oh—and I may or may not have an unhealthy obsession with Art the Clown & the Terrifier series 👀 (big inspo for my showcase piece).”

You can see Moonbeam perform at our first showcase on October 26th!

Behind the spins, it’s just a bunch of humans laughing, cheering, and trying not to bonk ourselves on the pole 😂✨ We train hard, we smile harder—and that’s the real magic of Sanctuary. 🖤

Friendly reminder for our classes.
If there is one 1 student registered for class, it will be canceled 3 hours prior to start time unless communication is made with the studio and instructor.
We want to be respectful of our instructors, studio and students time. If you have any questions or concerns, contact the studio via email so we can discuss your concerns and more.
Thank you for understanding,
Sanctuary of Pole
Management and Team of Badassery

Bruises fade, but our pole family? Forever. 🖤✨

#pole #polefamily #sanctuaryofpole #yeahthatgreenville

Safety isn’t just about the tricks we teach—it’s about the trust we build. 🖤 Every spin, climb, and drop is taught with care so that students can grow with confidence, knowing they’re supported by mentors who value their well-being.
