Atlanta GA Studios
Hello,
I'm thinking about a month long visit to Atlanta, to check out the aerial dance scene, and I'm wondering if anybody knows or has an opinion on the pole studios in the area. I googled it and a bunch popped up and checked the websites (that worked) but it didnt really give me a feeling on any of them. I'm intermidiate to advanced and looking for a studio to train at. I intend to start submitting to compitions this year. Any thoughts, related or not would be greatly apprecited.

Vertical Joes for booty popping. You probably want to hook up with Skittles if she is still there.
-
I also understand that PoleLaTeaz closed but 2 of the instructors supposedly were reopening it.

I'm interested in the aerial school sky gym, but nnot too sure about these pole studios. You know me chem, I need some advanced training and coaching. Seriously considering relocating to find it.

Are you aware that you can skype train with some of the big names? You have the skills, you just need the polish. I think I still have your cell if it has not changed. Let me find out some contacts. Did you know that Jade and Alethea are now buddies? Alethea just moved to the same place Jade did and they have been hanging out together. Not sure if you are still in contact with her but there is an opportunity. Both Alethea and Zoraya offer packages to come and live and train with them, as do some others. You need to know what style you are trying to go for and then find where you need to go.

Yeah Im aware, I'v gotten quotes form zoraya too. I really like her style. I've been thinking of tryin chinese pole. Flexiblity is not my strong point. But I deff have strength. Just feeling a little a lost. Theres not a really good pole and aerial community here in nola and Im starting to realize that I may need to relocate. Satred working with an aerialist to choreograph a pole piece today.

Polateaz – dancy. just started a new level with heidi coker. a few student compete.
Dance 411 – don't know
Verticals Joe's – booty and tricks
Pole Waxers – tricks
Spinarella – don't know
Most of the studios have YouTube videos to see their dance styles. There are a few more in town too and then a few outside the perimeter. I know their general audience but not sure which would be more geared toward competiton. Most of the studios do groupon frequently for drop in classes if you want to shop studios on the cheap. I think skittles moved to tx? but occasionally does returns for privates. Heidi Coker teaches at a few studios and i think she does privates also. Hope this helps.

Chemgoddess – just wanted to clear this up. Polelateaz houston closed down, Atlanta is still open.

Thank you…..not sure why I thought it was Atlanta.

I teach @ Vertical Joe’s and compete also. I’ve been to all of the studios in the ATL area except for Dance 411. You may want to take a drop in class at each studio to see which one you like. Heidi (instructor at Polewaxers & Polelateaz) is great also.

Pole la teaz is a joke I went there and was not happy wouldn’t recommend to anyone. That’s why I am having such a hard time finding lessons myself in Georgia because scared might run into another place like them. I have thought about. Vertical Joe’s or spineralla they seem like pretty good places. But I have a question about the live and train with the pros thing how do you go about contacting them to do that? Want to get competition level so that would really help.

Alethea had a post on Facebook regarding it. If you go to her website I am sure there is info there too or at least a way to contact her manager. I believe that I saw Zoraya’s on her website. Google Zoraya Judd.
