Pole Dancing: Taster Session with Ben (Student Instructor)
Soo...you heard of pole dancing? You are at MMU and are aware there is a Society dedicated to the art and sport and you want to try it out? Well, we have just the ticket for you!
This taster session is a 30 minute mini class which will give you the low down on how our classes are structured. This taster session is hosted by the Committee and instructed by our Treasurer, Ben Archer (MALE), whom is qualified with Xpert Fitness (one of the leading aerial arts training providers) and can teach up to intermediate level and is insured with public liability (he is very happy to provide his certificates if requested, he is very transparent like that).
Appropriate clothing should be worn for pole dance sessions however for this taster shorts and tee shirt will be fine (consider upgrading to an awesome pole dance set if decide to purchase a course block with Amy or continue with Ben's full sessions). If you need to change into what you are wearing for the session please use the toilets located on various floors of the Union building and not in the studio as there are no areas for privacy and other participants will be present. It is also advised to bring a towel and a good amount of water - things may get sweaty and thirsty.
The session starts with a warm-up - and it is MANDATORY to be present before this starts. If you are late for the session and miss the warm-up you will be prohibited from participation and asked to leave and no refund issued - arriving on time and ready is the participant's responsibility.
Following warmup you will be instructed on some tricks - fear not these are targeted to absolute newbies: Your little to zero experience can be put to one side.
And then we cool down to ease those hard worked muscles so they don't get very sore after.
And that's a typical class structure. We hope you look forward to and enjoy the real thing!
PLEASE NOTE: THE STUDENT INSTRUCTOR IS MALE. IF A FEMALE INSTRUCTOR IS PREFERRED PLEASE WAIT FOR ANNOUNCEMENT OF FURTHER TASTER SESSIONS INSTRUCTED BY AMY O'BRIEN, THE SOCIETY'S LONGSTANDING HIRED INSTRUCTOR.
