Testimonials from just a few of our Students:

The class was a great, fun way to exercise.  I loved that the class sizes were small (more individual attention) and you made the class fun and I felt comfortable.  A nice change for working out besides going to the gym!  Shannon  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

"As a dorky engineer I had my concerns about joining a pole dancing class.  Not only do I spend my day with a bunch of men but I am a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl. This would be the total opposite.  I showed up to my first class in work out clothes and was happy to see others there in the same.  Class was a blast!  However, this was no dance class…this was a workout!  Two days later, while the muscle ache still continued I had one thought; I have to go back!  Since August of 2008 I have been hooked.  I have made friends and made fun of myself.  I have worked out and just hung out.  And it was all done in the comfort of a studio closed to men, closed to judgment, and closed to the stereotypes that most people think of when they hear “pole dancing.”   Christina  6 Week Pole Class Graduate & Drop-In Pole Student for LIFE!!!

I am a fitness instructor in Youngstown, Ohio. I was looking for something new and challenging and I found it in a Pole Dancing class at Spin on Fitness! Jen’s class incorporated Pilates and Yoga stretches as well as spins and twirls. The class was a total body workout. It renewed my self-confidence and my enthusiasm for exercise. I will definitely be back for more, regardless of the distance.  -Eleanor Klucinecn
 

Hi Shelley,  I really wanted to come back on Tuesdays, but I will be on travel the next three Tuesdays, so I need to wait for the "next session".  I really enjoyed the classes and had so much FUN taking the pictures!  Thanks again for a great class.  I hope to see you soon!  Lara  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

Hi, I'm Stephanie and I never even knew pole dancing for fitness existed. A friend of mine told me about pole dancing classes. She said that after one work out she was so sore she could barely walk down and up steps. Working out in a gym and my "Pilates for Dummies" DVD doesn't give me a good work out like that!  After hearing about her results from dancing I searched for pole dancing in Pittsburgh. Spin On Fitness seemed like the best choice. The website made pole dancing look fun and challenging so I signed up for the 6 week class. The first class I was nervous but when you meet the instructors Shelley and Jen you realize there's nothing to be nervous about! You're there to get a good work out and you have fun doing it.  Jen and Shelley make every class fun and exciting. You never get bored, there's always something new to learn! And you always WANT to learn more!! After attending Spin On Fitness once, not only was I sore the next day (a good sore!) I was addicted. Pole dancing works muscles you don't even know you have. It is definitely the best work out I ever had. The last class of your 6 week beginner classes you have a party.  Shelley and Jen take amazing photos of you and a video of you doing your routine!  It's a lot of fun! I recommend putting down that "Pilates for Dummies" DVD and signing up for Spin On Fitness right now!  You won't be disappointed!!  I am a Pole Dancing Diva for Life!!  Steph   *6 Week Pole Class Graduate & Drop-In Regular *Featured Student*
 

Thank you so much.  You are such a wonderful teacher.  I feel really great and I think the class is a total confidence booster. I never really knew how to dance/move at all - and I still feel weird doing some of the moves - and wish I looked like you.  But, I love love love the class and have fun and have become way more confident.  I am definitely signing-up for the next Wed nite session. Jennifer  *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

After seeing a brilliant video of one of my former ballet buddies working the pole, I was totally inspired to search for classes in the Pittsburgh area. I was half expecting I'd find nothing, but lucky for me, I found Spin on Fitness conveniently located halfway between my house and my mom, aka: #1 babysitter's. Noticing the amazing transition in my friend's body, I was hoping the pole would be a fun way to tighten up my post-baby body. However, fun doesn't even begin to describe Jen's class.

Not only is she hilarious, personable, and awesome at what she does, but Jen was also super flexible with getting our 6 weeks in despite weather issues. During my first session, I remember wondering whether I was really getting worked out, but the next day I had the answer. I could barely walk up my stairs because my thighs were so sore, and being a ballet-trained dancer, this is no easy feat to accomplish! Further, I used muscles I was clearly unaware existed in my upper back, arms and abs. The classes were a blast, but I am especially glad I did the Pole 101 class, because the party on the last week was off the chain.

If you are reading this and wondering whether this might be the class for you, stop wondering and sign up. I definitely intend to return to Jen's class when my schedule frees up a bit, because I can't wait to learn more tricks! It is an exciting, liberating, and unique way to work out, and Jen is magic at coaxing the sexy out of anyone. Thanks, ladies, and I hope to see you again soon!  xoxo,Maria   *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate 3/10

Hi Shelley, I just got the DVD & Pics discs in the mail!!!  (I just got back from spring break, so they may have arrived earlier).  They're awesome!!!  Thanks so much!  It's a great keepsake.  I'll def be trying to come to some open pole times in the future if I can find a minute to breathe ~ school's gonna get pretty hectic the next month or so!  But again, thanks a bunch!!  Hope you had a great Easter!  Kristin  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

Shelley is the Best teacher!  I loved my class!  She made it very Fun & allowed my alter ego to expose itself.  Thank You!  Lora  Second Email after receiving Class Party DVD Video that 6 Week 101 Pole Students receive:  Hi Shelly, I just wanted to let you know I got the DVD and absolutely loved it.  You did a great job editing.  I reiterate that I absolutely loved the class.  You are a wonderful and fun instructor.  GREAT JOB!!!  I’ve been very busy but I definitely plan on coming back for another class, but probably not until the fall.  Lora  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

I recently took the Hoop Class and I have to say what a great time!!!  You forget how to hula-hoop from when you’re little, but she does it in such a way that it’s so much fun and you don’t realize that you are actually doing something good for your body.  The class size is small enough that you and your friends can do it together and have fun and not be embarrassed among people you don’t know so it makes you work that much harder.  I had such a good time that I’m getting my own hoop to keep it up between classes.   I recently had my 48th birthday and if you know me, I don’t act it and hopefully don’t look it, but this is going to make me even younger and crazier – can’t wait until the next class.  Thanks Shelley for giving us a chance to get our ‘youth' back!!  Kim  *Hoop Class Student

Thank you!  This was a great workout and a ton of fun!  We had a blast and your teaching style made everyone comfortable, even those who were a little intimidated at first.  What a great way to tone your upper body and learn some great moves while you're at it!  I'll definitely be back for the next class!  Dana  *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

Shelley, My friends and I attended the August Pole Taster class and absolutely loved it. We are interested in your September class as well.  Looking forward to finding out when it is going to be scheduled.  Thanks, Shelley  *Pole Taster Class Attendee
 

Thank you for opening my eyes up to another form of exercise!   I would have never thought I was working my chest, arms, thighs and butt so much until I HURT the next day!   My favorite part of the class was the "party" on the last night.   It was so much fun to interact with the other girls and let loose!   I'm looking forward to the video (I think).  Stephanie  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

Shelley,  Hello!  Oh my gosh, Wednesday evening's class was so much fun.  And, as you warned, I have spaghetti noodles for arms, and bruised inner legs, but I can't wait until next class!!!  This is a great work out.  Gail Roberts  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

Had a blast and will be back for the next class!  Danielle  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate

I have invested so much time and money on private personal training, boot camps and kickboxing classes.  But  POLE classes at SPIN ON FITNESS is by far the VERY BEST that I enjoy most!  Plus I know I am getting an awesome workout...  Even though my 6 week session was cut short due to babysitting issues I wasn't gonna give up on POLE.  No sitter No Problem.  I'll just go during the week while I am at work even better!  POLE classes showed me how to build strength in all parts of my body, while toning and love how it tighten my abs.  Which I never thought it could be possible for me to accomplish.  It's not just about the stroking poles and face grinding like some may think when I bring it up to some of my friends...  It's an actual butt whipping class.   It's very well worth it.  I also bought a pole for myself but I don't even look at it nor use it cuz I rather be at class working out with Shelley or Jen.  Not only am I hooked, I have gotten my girls at work hooked also.  SEXY BUTT UP!!!  Janet   *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate & Drop-In Regular  *Featured Student*
 

Shelley,  Thanks for the great class.  I had so much fun!  My upper body, especially my triceps, definitely feel more firm.  I can't wait to come back.  What a great time!   Thanks again,  Pam  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

The class was a great workout.  Not only is it a great workout, but it was the most fun workout I have ever experienced!  Brandi  *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

Wonderful & I will be back!!!!  Jessica  *6 Week Pole 101 Class Graduate

I loved being able to swing all the way around, so fun!  Whee!  Mary Ann  *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate
 

New tricks to be found, upper body strength I am proud!  I highly recommend this exercise class - tho' it bruises the arms, it does not bruise the ***!  Mary Ann, The Pro-Beginner    *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate 3rd time!

This is the greatest fitness class ever, fun, exciting, new, and it makes you feel great inside and out!  Kelly  *6 Wk Pole 101 Class Graduate

Testimonials from Pole Party Hostesses & Guests:
 

1st Email:  Hi Shelley, I can’t even begin to tell you how much fun we all had last Saturday. We’re all really excited to see the pictures you took. Mine are pretty funny but I have a feeling you got even better ones.  I’ve showed the pictures to my family and everyone said we all looked like we were having a blast, and we were!  We were all a little sore the next day. I’m still feeling it a little in my arms. But what a work out!! Forget Total Gym systems! Apparently all you need for a total body workout is a pole. And one of Kellie’s girlfriends was surprised that you could have so much fun breaking a sweat. Also, I wanted to give you updated addresses for both Kellie & myself. We’ll be moved by the end of the week & I want to make sure the DVD gets to one of us. We’re already planning a girl's night so we can all see it together for the first time.  Thank you again for your time & helping me plan an amazing & unforgettable Bachelorette Party for my sister. I’m certain you’ll see me again. In fact, I’ve got my eyes on your class calendar. Have a wonderful day!  Kim Underwood

2nd Email:  Hi Shelley, Kellie received the DVD and we love it!  You did an excellent job putting together the pictures with the music. I don't think Kellie will ever forget how much fun we had for her bachelorette party but, just incase her mind gets fuzzy, she can always watch the DVD as a reminder. The pictures really capture just how much fun we had! We all had these big smiles on our faces in every picture! You made us all feel so comfortable (even shy girls Kellie and Michelle) and we were having so much fun we didn't even think to be self conscious in front of the camera.  I can't thank you enough for helping me plan an unforgettable party for my best friend (and twin sister), Kellie. You will definitely see me again, if not for a class another party.  Take care!  Kim
 

Dearest Shelley, YOU ARE AMAZING!!!  Thank you for posting those pics so fast!  We had a GREAT time and we will definitely be doing it again...  Thanks so much for everything!  Angela had the time of her life!  With total Respect and Thanks, Sincerely- Martha Boschukhe

 I just wanted to say thank you for the party everyone had a great time.  And you were right about how it hurts more the second day!  I will probably have another party with you in the future, thanks again and have a wonderful holiday season.  Thanks, Jessica  
 

Shelley Hi! I received the DVD and it was awesome! You really do an  incredible job with the way the pics are and all of the special effects!! All of us got together last night to watch it. This is something I'll never forget! We all had a great time and I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was a little hesitant at first but I had the greatest time and the pictures speak for themselves!! When you hear pole dancing it sounds a little scary and I ended up having so much fun! The music was great and all my friends had a blast! When you mix pole dancing and great friends, you can't go wrong! You know your in for a great night!! Now we know who can quit their day jobs and who can't! Thanks again and we would love to come back for another girls night out!!  Thanks so much, Tracy Ellis   *Please feel free to use any pics of my bach party for your site!!  That would be awesome to be on it!  We had a great time and thanks again!!  Click here to view pics.
 

1st Email::  Thank you both so much for such a kick ass Bachelorette party for my sister Saturday night!  Everyone agreed it was the best party they had ever been to.  You ladies are awesome!  If I ever know of anyone wanting a pole party or a passion party in the Pittsburgh area I will totally give them your contact information.  And if I ever decide to throw another one, you can bet I'll be calling as well!  Thanks again!!!  ~ Margie

2nd Email:  Got the DVD today!  I love it!  I've never laughed so hard in my life!  Thank you!!!  Margie
 

 Hi Shelley- Just wanted to send a quick note and let you know how much fun my girls and I had last Saturday night.  We really didn't know what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised to see how everything was set up. It was also a plus that we were able to plug in our iPOD!  Thanks for the great memories and moves : )  I'm pretty sure we all even burned a few calories (which is always a good thing) and I know a few of us are still sore from working it!  Thanks for the great memories and moves : )  I am sure we will back in the future!  Thanks again, Shelby and the girl's from Beth's Bachelorette Party!  
 

Hi Shelley, I have my pole party DVD and CD of pictures and I love them.  I laughed and smiled the entire time that the DVD was playing.  The pole party really made my Bachelorette evening extra wild; myself and my wonderful friends had a terrific time.  It was easy to keep up with you when you were teaching us different moves, trying on the outfits was tons of fun, and I thank you again for making me a permanent memory of that special night.  Thanks, Simone
 

Hey Shelley, I had a fantastic time at my pole dancing/bachelorette party! It was an unbelievable work-out! Plus, it was just such a fun experience, especially to do with your best friends. The costumes and photo-shoot were hilarious fun as well! You were an amazing teacher, making us feel so comfortable and confident the whole time. I highly recommend your class to anyone looking for a great work-out or a really fun time!  Kim      1/2010
 

 Hello Shelley!! Just wanted to let you know how much fun we all had this past Friday @ our "Pole Party!" We were all pretty amazed how much of a work out pole dancing can really be! We definitely were all feeling the burn the next day along with a couple of "bruises of achievement!" We've already been discussing starting the 6 week class sometime soon, cause lets just say we've been craving the pole! Hehe! Thanks again for showing us girls a new and fun way to work out!  Can't wait to see the pictures to show everyone how much fun we had!!  We are all pole dancers for life!  Keep up the awesome work!!! :)  Kimberly
 

Hi Shelley, We had a fantastic time on Saturday and I wanted to thank you and apologize for how quickly we had to end.  Also, I wanted to inquire about joining up for a six-week class.  I know that your class has already started and I wanted to know when a new one will begin.  I know there are a few people interested.  Also, I think that there will be a few people calling to book a party.  Thanks again for a fun night!!!  Melissa Ott
 

Shelley we all had the BEST time last night. Thank you so much for coming out!!! That was one heck of a workout! My arms and legs have never been that sore in my life. Thanks again for a wonderful experience. I have given my friends and coworkers RAVE reviews about you.  Mandy

Shelley, Thanks so much for getting me my dvd.  It is great!  Everyone had such a great time at the party.  It was something different to do for a Bachelorette party and I am so glad that we chose a pole dancing party.  I would definitely come again for another party.  It was fun and entertaining to watch my family and friends try to pole dance.  We are still laughing at how much fun we had that day!  LaReina

Shelley *really* entertained our group of 32.  We are women of all ages, all tied to the same non-profit organization.  After an 8-hour meeting, we were very much in need of fun and exercise.  60 minutes with Shelley exhausted and exhilarated us and we left totally energized.  What incredible fun!
