I know this is late but Zelda’s on Yonge street has a pole upstairs, Laide has one too. Tattoo rock Parlour has stage poles out sometimes and Annex Wreck Room puts theirs out (not sure when) too.

Sweetvixencouture.com makes them (I have 2 in my studios) and she’s in Mississauga, Ontario.

Try Aradiafitness.com, you can select the London location. If they don’t have practice times on the schedule just request them.

I would suggest not giving in to the sense of urgency.  That is a lot of money so before you entertain buying the studio, you need to take a good hard look at the financials from when the business started to now and do this with an accountant.  Also, buying into a studio you'd want to ensure there will be a seamless transition for customers, meaning the current owner would need to stay on board and train you on their systems (teaching, their site, scheduling, newsletters, marketing, etc)  before leaving.  Lastly, an asking price is just that….  when buying a business (or a car or a house, etc) NEGOTIATE.  You'd be surprised how much you can save from a motivated seller.    Good luck with whatever you choose to do!
