Inspire Fitness

Inspire Fitness in South East Kent. 10 years of fitness experience, including pole fitness and dancing, aerial hoop, silks, trapeze, pole fabric and flexibility classes.

We teach fitness classes across Canterbury, Deal, Herne Bay and at our own new fitness studio in Dover. Our group classes are friendly, fun and addictive. For many of our students it is their weekly catch up session as well as a work out. You do not need to be fit already; there is something for everybody in our sessions and beginners are welcome. Many of our beginners say "I can't come to that class as I have no upper body strength", that is exactly why you should come to our classes. We design our beginner sessions to build fitness and strength. 

We have been teaching pole fitness for over 10 years! Over the last 6 years we have introduced aerial hoop, silks, trapeze, pole fabric and flexibility classes to our timetables. In January 2019 we introduced aerial hammock and yoga. This has been a fantastic addition. We offer many different class types in hammock/yoga, flexibility, flips and tricks, conditioning, relaxation, mobility and yoga. There is a class for you.

Our pole fitness classes cover mainly static pole moves. We teach single moves, combinations of moves and link moves together. Our instructors are experienced in teaching beginner to advanced levels. You will learn how to spin around the pole, work up to lifting your body weight and after you have learnt the beginner moves we will move on to inverting upside down. Our spinning pole classes over a different element to pole with the pole on spin.

Aerial hoop brings the challenge of circus to our classes. Hang upside down and move through the hoop. This dynamic piece of equipment offers opportunity to hang under, in, on top of and out of the hoop. We can spin, drop and lift ourselves.

Taught at our Canterbury and Dover venues. Aerial silks can be used as two pieces of material, both pieces together or in a knot. This means that aerial silks are accessible to everyone, from complete beginners to advanced levels. Our Dover studio offers the most height for advanced participants, our Canterbury studio offers slightly less height but is still suitable for beginner and intermediate moves.  

Taught at Dover on a workshop basis. We currently do not have regular sessions in trapeze. Keep an eye out for sessions on the calendar and do let us know if you would like us to arrange a session.
