Pink Poles Studio — Attraction in Atlanta

Came yesterday for a “beginner” class, my homegirl treated me to the class because I recently been dealing with the death of my best friend within the past week and she wanted to distract me away from everything I had going on, so we came to the pole class. Upon walking in everything was beautiful, and we were greeted at the door, upon entering or 915 class we had “Sage” as our instructor. Her entrance was very cold, although she asked us all to introduce ourselves and say our names there was nothing else. Once we start getting into the routine, that’s when I did realize that this does not seem like a beginner friendly class, there was no walk through on how to do any spins/dips/turns around the pole. There was also another group who seem to be an intermediate group that kept switching off from us, and showing us to clear difference in our “skills”. Which also didn’t boost any confidence in the room for the beginners, especially when we were clapping for the intermediate ladies and we didn’t receive a single ounce of encouragement until everyone confidence diminished at the end, including mine. Granted, my friend that brought me was fairly experienced on the pole, I was not and Sage’s cold demeanor along with the fact that every time we tried to perform as “beginners” by ourselves, we were extremely confused as expected. I just personally don’t feel like it was choreography meant for a “beginner” type class, nor should we have been so separated from “intermediate”. The routine is was strictly just shown and walked through a couple of times and we were made to do it. By the time we had to do it by ourselves we’d forgot the routine and she was just sitting calling out the moves while the other intermediate ladies watched us struggle. I forgot part of the dance and was just told to “don’t stop”. I just feel like “Sage” was not the best instructor for how well she dances on the pole in my personal opinion and I wouldn’t return to a class by her specifically. I could tell another woman in the class was just as frustrated since she walked out before the instructor could film and perform her part of the dance. It did make it seem like she would not return, I would come back just got with the same instructor but overall...

We went to the wrong location that was specified on Google. The owner KNOWS about there being a location discrepancy and DID NOT inform us until after we placed a phone call asking if we were at the right location. Even if you are aware, you need to let your customers know that prior to booking or change the location. The owner is also NOT accommodating with this "10 minute grace period" because there were customers outside of the establishment that met the grace period but were not allowed inside. Once we arrived, the owner was nowhere to be found and instead had her employee talk to us via phone on speaker phone while her employee was scrolling through Instagram. When we were about to ask a question, she responded saying "HELLO?" in a rude manner. There was also no clear communication on getting our money back. She did not provide an opportunity for a class credit or to reschedule the class. There were people waiting outside she could have easily accommodated and created a new class for the future. She also placed a call to security when we were not showing signs of being confrontational. DO NOT TRUST THE OWNER WITH YOUR MONEY. She will use the location mishap as a tactic to steal your money she has known for years and has done nothing about it. Then she does not follow through on her grace period. She also have customers pay through CashApp which leaves no receipt or form of a legitimate paper trail. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE &...

I went here tonight hoping to have an amazing experience & it was everything but!

For starters once we arrived there were already 8+ women there celebrating a birthday, so we were already thrown off.

Secondly, our appointment time was @9:30pm, we didn't get started until 10pm. Why? Because the instructor was too busy kekeing & haha'ing with the other ladies & TAKING SHOTS!

Finally, we were the first to arrive during our appointed time, but we were pushed to the back, 1st due to the fact that the instructor wanted to play around with her friends, and second because it was simply too over crowded. There were 10+ ladies there and only 9 poles. we were the last to learn any pole choreo. When we FINALLY got a chance to get on the pole we literally only got MAYBE 5 minutes to learn anything during the whole time we were there. We were there from 9:30-10:45 , u do the math.

This experience was the definition of u get what u pay for. The class was only $10 & it showed. It wasn't about the money, no I didn't ask for a refund. I was genuinely excited for my first pole class and had been looking forward to it all day only to be disappointed. I wouldn't recommend anyone go there. Save your money and your time, if you're looking for a fun pole experience this is NOT THE PLACE. They are EXTREMELY unprofessional, u will mostly be sitting around looking doing nothing, it's just...
