Lap Dance

All classes (unless otherwise stated on schedule) will take place at Ruby Deluxe, 415 S Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC 27601. Please note that this location is in downtown, therefore plan accordingly for parking.

Parking: 

We recommend parallel street parking around the building. Other parking options include paid lots within minimal walking distance as well as a parking deck across from the Sheraton Hotel on S Salisbury St. All of these options are pay-to-park via mobile app or ticket, if you’re in the garage, however all street parking is FREE on weekends and after 6pm on weekdays!

Other Details:

All classes, including Open Pole sessions, are 60 minutes in length unless otherwise stated on the schedule. All classes will include an instructor-led warm-up with stretching in the beginning of class, and a cool-down in the last moments of class. Please bring your own grip aids if you need them.

Attire: 

Pole heels are encouraged, but never required, unless the class is heel-specific. Clothing should leave as much skin exposed as you are comfortable with. Please keep in mind: the less fabric the better! Pole holds require skin-to-pole contact and fabric will make you slide, giving you no grip. If you’re signed up for a floorwork or basework class, knee pads are a good option to have. There are knee pads that are specifically meant for pole dance that have grips on the knee-pit side. These can be easily found on the web.

Expectations: 

Pole requires your body to be warm and ready to participate without acquiring an injury, therefore if you arrive to class more than fifteen minutes late, you will be asked not to participate. If you are less than fifteen minutes late, the instructor may ask you to warm up your body by yourself for a few moments and then join class once you’re warm. If you are going to be late for a previously scheduled private lesson please reach out to that instructor privately and inform them. They will use their own discretion in regards to rescheduling, fees, etc. 

Siren Studios is committed to providing a safe, body positive, queer-friendly space for all pole dancers of all levels of experience to come together and build a dance community. Therefore, we encourage EVERYONE who wants to try pole dance to come out and take a class! There’s a strong misconception that you have to be physically strong in order to begin pole, and that’s inherently false! The beauty of pole is that you build the muscles you need as you continue your pole journey and condition your body. 

Our classes can be mixed levels, therefore our wish is that you feel accepted and encouraged to grow at whatever pace works for you. Please don’t compare yourself to your classmates, everyone is growing at their own rate and it’s exactly where they need to be at that moment.
