New Classes!

We have a whole new round of classes starting THIS WEEK!  Try out a killer workout with Pole X, learn the beautiful art of aerial hoop (lyra), or master a sexy pole routine to Naughty Girl!  We’ve got a great lineup of classes, including some new offerings, so be sure to check out the schedule online!  Lyra and silks classes are open to men and women ages 14 and up…all other classes are open to women 18+.  Remember, we offer discounts for college students, for having perfect attendance in your classes, and for taking multiple classes at once!

Mother’s Day Special!

Just in time for Mother’s Day!  Moms and Daughters, sign up together for a class starting in May, and receive 20% off for BOTH of you!  That’s up to $64 in savings!  Must be 18 and up for Pole, Exotic, and Burlesque classes.  Must be 14 and up for Belly Dance, Lyra, and Silks classes.  Not valid on Zumba cards.

Welcome to “Starla”

We would like you to help us welcome Ashley, aka “Starla,” to the EFit team!  Ashley was bitten by the dance bug when she was eight years old. She has self-taught herself all the most advanced pole tricks over the past two years and owns two poles.  Look out for her classes on the calendar over the next two sessions!

Get a FREE class!

We offer discounts for referring your family and friends as students!  If enough of them sign up for a class, you could get a class FREE! The referral discount is $10 per referred student enrolling in a five week class and $20 per student enrolling in a ten week class!

Video Shoots!

Time to mark your calendars!  If you’re taking a choreography class that started in March, video shoots will be Saturday, June 16 starting at 1 pm.  Be sure to sign up soon to reserve your spot!  And remember, videos are completed in the order in which you paid!  When registering, please indicate in the “notes” section which routine you plan on filming!  Be sure to ask your instructor for a copy of our “Things to Know for and About the Video Shoot” info sheet–it’s filled with all the combined wisdom of our instructors!

And if you need to schedule a private lesson to polish up that routine before the video shoots, now is the time!  Email instructors@shergoldstudio.com or call 434-975-4611 to set up a private lesson!  Lessons are $55 for one person or $60 for two people for 50 minutes.

If you’re not filming, you should mark your calendars anyways!  If you’re a woman who’s 18+ who is taking or has taken a pole, exotic, burlesque, belly dance, silks, or lyra class, you are welcome to come watch the video shoots!  It’s a great way to build camaraderie with the other students, because you’ll get to hang out with people who are not in your classes.  Get away from the menfolk for an afternoon that’s all about the ladies!  Bring a snack and drink to share!  It’s a great time to hang out and cheer everyone on!

Memorial Day Studio BBQ

It’s time for the annual Memorial Day Studio BBQ!  Saturday, May 26…the festivities start at 4, and dinner will be ready around 6!  Please RSVP by “registering” online by Wednesday, May 23!  The menu will include grilled lamb, chicken, burgers, and hot dogs.  Please bring a side dish or dessert to share, and indicate in the “notes” section when registering what you will be bringing.  We’ll also have outdoor and indoor games–bring your favorites!  Children are welcome, but no pets, please.  Even if you’ve only been to the studio once, you are invited!  This is a great way to get to know the other dancers outside of the studio!  We’re a fun bunch, we promise!

Open House

We would like to thank everyone that turned out for the Open House this past weekend! It was a huge success, and everyone enjoyed the classes, socializing, and demos by our silks class students and instructor and Ashley on pole. Look out for another opportunity to participate later in the year!

Also, congratulations to Maria C., Kathryn C., Emily M., and Saori O. who took our teaser class at the open house.  You are our raffle winners!  Stop by the studio to claim your prize!  The options are 1 free person at a pole party, 1/2 off of a 5-week class series OR 1/4 off a 10-week class series, a “sick day pass” so that you can miss a class and still get Perfect Attendance, and an E-Fit prize pack containing a bumper sticker, water bottle, and license plate frame!  There’s only one available of each, and it’s first-come, first-serve, so hurry in today!

Removable Pole Kits in stock

We currently have two removable pole kits from Platinum Stages in house which we will part for $25 less than you would pay shipped from California. Just call the studio if interested. We can help if necessary with getting it to you and installation.

Registration Tips ~ Accidentally Registered twice, or three times, or yikes four times!!

When going back to the class registration page have you found you have more than one time listed your name? This is caused by using back and forward buttons to browse the site. It is easily fixed by going to the pay / view bookings page, even if not paying online and using the delete class link from the extra entries.
