INTRODUCTION TO POLE DANCING

4-week "taster" course

This is a mini-course for those who are totally new to pole dancing. 

You do not have to complete this course in order to do Pole Fundamentals.  It's an optional extra to give you a more extensive grounding in the basics of pole dance (plus it's a lot of fun and you will come away with a little pole dance routine of your own!).
