Studio Etiquette
To make our sessions & space as welcoming and enjoyable for everybody (Instructors & Members alike), we have a Code of Conduct we expect everyone to abide by.
​
​
Please:
​
-
be on time! The main door of the secure, locked building we work from will be open and closed 5 minutes before your class is due to start. Any Members who miss doors opening and the warm up will not be permitted into class and your class will not be refunded or transferred. No exceptions. We are located in a secure building with no buzzer system, which we make clear on our website, booking page and terms and conditions. PPS takes zero responsibility for classes being missed due to our clear door policy.
​
-
do not use the equipment prior to warming up or after cooling down. Please ensure you stay for cool down; this is very important for injury prevention.
​
-
no jewellery to be worn, including rings, watches, bracelets, earrings. If jewellery cannot be removed please cover this with tape. Be mindful of body piercings. PPS accepts no responsibility from injuries resulting from this and piercings are left in at your own risk.
​
-
no body/ hand moisturiser, lotions, oils to be applied on the day of your class. This makes the poles slippery and dangerous for yourself, Instructor and other Members. This also includes sun lotion and fake tan.
​
-
give your Instructor your full attention during warm up, cool down and whilst they are demonstrating a move.
​
-
do not teach other Members new moves which they have not been shown. Everyone is working at different levels. You will be asked to leave.
​
-
do not try a new move outside of your ability without checking with your Instructor. You will be asked to leave.
​
-
put your mobile phone on silent throughout class and only used during class to take photos/ videos. If you need to take a call please take this outside.
​
-
be thoughtful of other Members/ Instructor's privacy when taking photos/ videos and uploading them online.
​
-
do not chew gum in class as it's a choking hazard.
​
-
keep the Studio tidy by taking any rubbish with you.
​
-
we are a single use plastic free studio. Please bring a reusable water bottle to class.
​
-
no eating in the studio.
​
-
wipe the poles after your have finished using them for the next Member & bring your own towel.
​
-
use a mat and spotter if you are performing a move you are unsure about.
​
-
PPS is a shoe free zone; only Pole specific shoes such as Pleasers, which are not worn outside, are permitted.​
-
do not come to class under the influence of alcohol or drugs. You will be asked to leave.
​
-
advise your Instructor of any injuries or illnesses prior to your session.
​
-
be aware PPS has a zero tolerance policy towards abuse/ bullying/ harassment of fellow Members and/or Instructors. This includes harassing behaviour based on gender, age, sexuality, race, religion, appearance.​​ you will immediately be asked to leave and your remaining account credits will be refunded.
