Sanctuary of Pole
Where are you located?
Our classes are inside HEDDLE HILL at 1801 Rutherford Rd in Building 1 Suite 107. Come in through automatic sliding doors then through double gray doors. Continue down the hallway past the bathrooms. Across from us is the baseball (they will have workout equipment in their room). We are across the hallway from them on the right. Use this video for reference.
What should I wear?
For our pole based classes, LyraPole and S-Pole, we recommend shorts and sleeveless / tank tops. For our alternative (non pole) classes and our select specialty classes like FlyPole, Lyra would need leggings. All registrations will notate apparel recommendations.
**NO NUDITY ALLOWED**
*No baggy clothing. Lotions, oils, cocoa butter or any moisturizer is not permitted because it makes the pole slick. We have to use our body to grip the pole. Please do not wear lotions for at least 2 hours prior to your class. Jewelry that dangles or restricts limb movement is also not permitted. (Rings, bracelets, necklaces.) Apparel must cover up the important parts (chest area/ breast, genitalia areas) as we are in a family friendly facility. If you are unsure, please reach out and ask.*/ tank tops. For our alternative (non pole) classes and our select specialty classes like FlyPole, Lyra would need leggings. All registrations will notate apparel recommendations.
