Only have time for a quickie? Check out our sexy, fun workshops!

~ General Workshop Info ~
Our workshops are a fast, fun way to learn something new! Although each workshop starts with a mini-workout to stretch and strengthen your muscles for safety, there is ultimately less focus on the workout – more on technique and moves. And, tons of fun! Workshops run occasionally – see schedule for details.

Cost: $39 per person
Length: 1.5 hours per workshop
Dates vary – see schedule for details

Pole~ah~Tease “Pole Primer”Christie Simmons, Pole~ah~Tease
While diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, dancing with a pole is sure to be another favorite! Learn to embrace your sassy side as you try your hand at sexy walks, Twizzler Twists, alluring pole bends, and the tantalizing Pole-erina and Dizzy Pole-erina tricks. If you are really on a roll you may even get to try the FireBelle! This class is geared for the ultra beginner – so come one, come all!

Pole~ah~Tease “Tease-a-Peel”
Say that 3 times fast! In this class you will get your sexy on as you peel your layers off! In addition to your basic tank top and shorts/pants that you won’t peel off, bring along a slip-on dress, a button-up (ideally men’s) shirt and boxers, a t-shirt and jeans and your favorite pair of heels to learn the tantalizing art of the strip-tease. Our style is tastefully sexy – and no worries – there is never nudity in class!

Pole~ah~Tease “Lap Dance for the Everyday Woman”
After the mini workout and stretch we’ll teach you a super sensual lap dance routine you can use at home! This simple combination for beginners is exquisitely mesmerizing and tantalizing… you’ll be amazed at how easy it can be to spice things up! Bring an extra t-shirt over your tank-top to learn the art of the t-shirt peel as a part of your dance. This class is a favorite!

Pole~ah~Tease “Sensual Dance Sampler”
Learn the basics of sensual dance and walk (or strut!) away with a simple routine! Using the beginner moves taught in the workout we’ll piece together a surprisingly easy dance involving the pole (walks & bends only – no spinning tricks), the wall, the floor and a t-shirt peel. This class is geared toward those with no experience, but intermediate workshops are also available upon request.

Pole~ah~Tease “Burlesque Chair & Dare”
Start with boas, gloves, hats and chairs… add some fabulously flirty dance moves… shake and stir… next thing you know you have in a sassy, sexy routine! Grab your favorite friends and sign up for this class in smiling sexiness – old Hollywood style. In addition to your workout tank top and shorts/pants bring along a short-sleeved jacket and easily removable skirt… we’ll tell you why later!

We think our classes are the bomb-diggity. But, you don’t have to take our word for it… see what others have to say. And, read Christie’s thoughts about sensual dance… in “So Intriguing Yet… Strangely Intimidating”

We are located at the south west corner of McClintock and Guadalupe in Tempe – in the same shopping center as Trader Joes and Changing Hands Bookstore. We are directly west of Trader Joe’s – just head through the breezeway next to the daycare center and we’re on the left. We admit we are a little hard to find… just think of it that we are a secret club for women to come and have fun! A hidden jewel is so much more intriguing than one in plain sight!
