Brass Butterflies offers group pole dancing and aerial arts classes in progressive, levelled curriculums, with material to challenge everyone from the absolute beginner to the elite performer or athlete. The skills in each level are taught with a focus on developing foundational movement patterns and strength, then building on these foundations in a safe and progressive manner that allows students to work at their own pace in a supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere. Students will progress through the levels as they are able to demonstrate the foundational skills in each level and are given the go ahead to move on from their instructors. Our curriculum classes are taught in 8 week Terms where students are registered in and expected to attend all weekly classes in a series, usually at the same time each week. Though we offer supplemental stand alone clinics and workshops, committing to a consistent weekly routine is the most effective way to see progress.
We also periodically offer Performance Series classes in Pole, Aerials, Burlesque, Heels Dancing, and occasionally other styles of dance. These series are generally priced the same as our curriculum series but are outside the curriculum and culminate in a performance in a studio showcase. Occasionally we will run 12 week performance series leading up to our “big” showcases at outside venues. These are priced differently from 8-week series.
