Defying Gravity Aerial Fitness Studio

Fantastic experience: I have been doing pole at Defying Gravity for a year now and I have adored every minute of my time here! Seanín is the utmost professional. She creates a learning environment that's fun and so welcoming, while also keeping health and safety a top priority. There's no worry about not being able to 'keep up' with everyone else - Seanín is encouraging at all levels and has a wealth of knowledge to help you progress. I have achieved so much in a year through Seanín. I am so much more confident and strong and I've met some absolutely wonderful classmates along the way. I could not recommend this studio enough!! Thank you Seanín for all you do x

Fantastic experience: I'm attending classes here a little over a year now - and let me tell you, it was the best decision I've ever had. I do not have ANY fitness background, but pole always fascinated me. Going on the first class was scary, but after the first class there was nothing to be scared of anymore. The vibe in the studio is amazing, the support and boost of confidence you get from the instructor and other girls in unbelievable. Judgment is non existing, but the laughs never ending. Instructors are knowledgeable and full on tips based on their own experiences which are really helpful. You DO NOT have to share your pole with anyone, and hygiene is well respected across the whole studio. There are multiple classes as well - Pole Dance, Aerial Hoop, Hammock, Strength and Conditioning as well as several workshops that allow you to try something new without needing to attend for the whole term. After a year I see great progress in my strength, weight, self-confidence and what I can do with my own body. I've made friends and cant wait for the next class as soon as it ends. 100% recommend to anyone wanting to try out Pole. You won't regret it <3

Fantastic experience: The most amazing place ,.. I have nothing but good experiences and I can’t wait to continue my journey Seanin is an amazing instructor and she builds your confidence! Amazing prices ( and you also don’t have to share a pole like in other places )

Fantastic experience: A beautiful studio, with an amazing instructor, a really fun way to keep fit, it doesn’t feel like exercise at all. Lots of different types of classes, there is something for everyone. Give it a go, you won’t regret it!!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Defying Gravity! Seanin is a fabulous instructor and really helps you to build your confidence! Her studio is stunning and fully equipped for all her classes! Spotlessly clean and Seanin strives to maintain a safe environment! The classes are good fun, a really good way to tone up, challenge yourself and learn new skills! Love being part of it all

Fantastic experience: Fantastic studo, classes are thought through so each week you see progression!

Negative experience: I'm sure it's a fine class if you can guarantee you will never be one minute late. You're made to sign a contract to say as much and she means it. Due to icey road conditions I arrived 3 minutes late to my second class and was refused entry and she was not kind about it. I was confused and mortified and got into my car after and cried. As I see other people have reviewed as much and have got hit back with a reply intended to discredit them about how abuse will not be tolerated, I'll get ahead of that and say the extent of what I said to the girl when I was refused to take part in a class prepaid for was 'but its icey...' to which I was told I should have left earlier. Reason for this insanely strict rule is health and safety. Again, for context, the girls had literally just kicked their shoes off and started jogging on the spot. £90 for one class and being made an example of and made to feel small.

Fantastic experience: Coming up on a year training here and can't recommend enough! Amazing workout and lots of fun too!

Fantastic experience: An amazing studio that doesn't just improve your physical health but will uplift your mental health. An encouraging and welcoming environment with instructors who treat everyone equally and work with each persons capabilities. I started these pole classes for my physical health but honestly I stayed on for how fun the classes are, doesn't even feel like a work out! I can see the results in both my physical and mental wellbeing and I look forward to each weeks lessons and seeing my progress. The studio is a credit to Seanin, she is a true professional at her sport and an encouraging and friendly instructor....Just make sure you point those toes!

Fantastic experience: Have been attending classes for almost a year - great way to keep fit and so many laughs every week! Friendly and professional. Would recommend to anyone for the craic alone

Fantastic experience: Amazing class all the staff are so friendly and helpful. They have helped me progress so much in the amount of time I've been there. Always good craic with the class and can't wait to go every week.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love going to class! The classes are fun, energetic and a great way to keep fit. Seanín is a great instructor! Very friendly, patient and encouraging. Would recommend these classes to anyone who wants to learn new skills, make new friends and have fun!

Fantastic experience: I started at defying gravity in December and have loved every class! Seanín is so patient and encouraging, very welcoming and just makes you feel so fabulous! I was so nervous to join the class as I didn’t know anyone else, but everyone was so kind and welcoming and encouraging. Seanín’s skills and coaching are amazing and defying gravity is clean and very well organised. Seanín is very clear of the policies when you sign up such as being on time to complete your warm up for health and safety reasons and that you are paying in advance for the service. I absolutely love my hoop class and really look forward to it every week!

Fantastic experience: Been at the studio now for nearly 5 years. Love getting out to the classes they are a brilliant way to exercise and have fun

Fantastic experience: Love the classes have been going for 2 years now. Improve and learn something new every time. Seanin is very friendly and welcoming. Recommend these classes to everyone who wants to learn or improve poledancing skills and have a lot of fun

Fantastic experience: I have been attending classes here for a while now. Yes Seanin is strict with timings etc but it's for the benefit of the class and for everyone's safety as late arrivals won't be warmed up properly and it disrupts the class people wandering I'm whenever. The studio is spotless, Seanin is a bit OCD about that lol. But she is lovely, really funny and so patient with people if they aren't getting it. Everyone in the class get along and encourage each other, it doesn't even feel like an exercise class because it is so enjoyable.

Fantastic experience: Best thing about the week is going to pole class! Seanín is a fabulous teacher! Classes are always fun and learn so much.

Fantastic experience: Friendly atmosphere. Well scheduled and progressive classes.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this class! The girls, the craic and our instructor Seanín, all first class! I have achieved so much more in the past 5 weeks than I have in another pole class which I was attending for much longer. If you want a great workout which is also fun this is the place to go, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Defying Gravity has been brilliant for me to keep healthy and fit! The classes are energetic and entertaining. They have been so accommodating and welcoming to all clients. We are all treated so well and everyone has fun. I’ve made many friendships from coming to class! Also a thorough clean is done after every class on all poles, hoops, silks and mats. 5 starts all round!!

Fantastic experience: seanin is An amazing teacher and perfectionist. Dedicates her time to each student !!! Absolutely fantastic studio!!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this class! Reasonably priced, great covid precautions, and brilliant instructor- Séanín. Class time is managed really well, by making sure everyone is there on the dot, so a full warm up can be completed, with time for a cool down also. I had some experience with pole before this class, but in 12 weeks have progressed more than over the space of 18 months in my former pole class. Small class size makes for plenty of time for each student. Plus always good Craic! 5

Negative experience: Also, I do not recommend it for the same reason. And treating people by turning themselves off during a conversation is inappropriate. 2 minutes of delay and not having a chance to pay for the money you paid, not to come to the next class. It is the money that counts, not the customer.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic staff, clean well looked after environment. I look forward to every Wednesday night. Best hobby for keeping fit and healthy while having so much fun!

Negative experience: Hello, I do not recommend this lady, she is very unpleasant, I came to the first lesson due to problems with navigation at 20:02 and she did not let me in, and the money I already paid she Didn’t want to return . And she said If i want to come on next class I have to pay stright away lack of culture
