The Pole Coven

Fantastic experience: An amazing studio with warm, welcoming and friendly instructors that make you feel at home and comfortable. The best choice for when starting out your journey into aerial sports, or like me, getting back into them after a few years off. Could not recommend Chlo and the team more.

Fantastic experience: Amazing studio. Sadly, I can’t go regularly, but I am always made to feel so welcome. The owner & instructors are amazing. Always a great time here. Can’t wait to go back.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic. The instructors are incredible, informative and kind and i have found my confidence with fitness and an inclusive community who supports each other non stop. I would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: The Pole Coven is a wonderful studio will lots of lovely instructors. It's very inclusive and always makes me feel safe and welcome. There is a large variety of classes to choose from, from complete newbies to advanced, and the classes are always super fun. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting to try a new fun challenge! :)

Fantastic experience: I start my pole journey 4 weeks ago and it’s been amazing! I was so nervous on my first day but the instructors are so welcoming and everyone is so supportive. It’s given me a body confidence boost and I can feel myself getting strong and more confident with the moves. Best decision I ever made! Thank you Chlo and Gabi! 10/10 would recommend to everyone

Fantastic experience: I have always been the sort of person who would never go anywhere on their own, hated sports, and generally would never put myself out there, but thought I'll take the chance, try and be brave, and give pole a go. Best. Decision. Ever. The instructors at the Pole Coven are so lovely, Gabi especially is always so patient and she really celebrate your wins. Also everyone there is so encouraging and I've never felt uncomfortable if I can't do something. There are moments most lessons when we end up clapping and cheering for each other because someone nails something they've been struggling with. Honestly coming to the Pole Coven is the highlight of my week and I am so glad I started here. And seriously huge shout out to Gabi, she made me feel so confident and comfortable in these classes and makes every session so much fun. Best decision I ever made!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic, inclusive, safe queer space to pole and giggle and have the most fabulous time! Chlo is an incredible instructor with all the patience in the world! Love spending my evenings here and recommend anyone who has thought of joining pole classes to come here!! UPDATE: I am not far off from officially moving into this space for good! :)) Nina, Gabi, Chlo offer amazing diverse classes to suit all in pole. If hoop is what you are after, Moon offers beginners to intermediate, flow, and choreo.. if you haven't booked onto a class... WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!?!?

Fantastic experience: The Pole Coven is a great, safe space and is very welcoming. I’ve been coming here to do yoga with Wavy, they are a very clear abd attentive teacher, and I always leave feeling worked, relaxed and refreshed. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with the Pole Coven for 6 months now and have loved every moment. From the support of the teachers to the amazing people in the classes, it's a non-judgemental safe place where I have found a new hobby for life! Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to lessons with Chlo for less than a year but it’s been an amazing time and has done so much for my confidence and just fitness in general, It’s obvious that Chlo takes each person individually when thinking of private lessons and manages to adapt mixed ability sessions for everyone attending to be pushed safely Would, and have recommended to friends and family

Fantastic experience: Am really enjoying the challenge of learning to pole dance - so much more fun than weightlifting - Gabi is an excellent teacher and I love the ambiance of the studio and everyone is very friendly

Fantastic experience: I started my pole journey with a six-week beginner course in September 2024, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The studio is always spotless, and the instructors are not only incredibly skilled but also warm, supportive, and encouraging. From the very beginning, I felt welcomed into such an inclusive and safe environment where everyone—regardless of their level—can thrive. I loved it so much that I signed up for a membership and now attend multiple times a week. If you’re looking for a studio that truly fosters growth, confidence, and community, I can’t recommend this one enough!

Fantastic experience: I've never been in such a supportive space. As an adult, starting new hobbies and finding new people to socialise with is difficult. I've always wanted to try pole and I saw a The Pole Coven advert so I decided to give it a go. I'm so glad I did. The instructors are supportive and inspiring, and everyone here will cheer you on.

Fantastic experience: Started at the beginning of Jan 2025 with a first timers pole course with Gabi and loved it so much was nervous about going initially but everyone was so welcoming, accepting and friendly that I've recently got one of the membership packages and even had my 1st hoop lesson with moon and am excited to see how far it all goes, started after years of 0 exercise and finally found a way to get healthy and have fun doing it, cannot reccomend enough

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love coming here. I was a bit nervous to start up pole and aerial hoop, but the instructors and everyone in the pole coven community have been so welcoming and encouraging. I've been able to branch out of my comfort zone and it's really helping me with my confidence. The studios such an inclusive and safe space with no judgement. Classes are very well structured and I really appreciate the syllabus book you can get if you want it, because it helps me work towards a goal and I love the level of communication about what's going on in the week and what type of moves and routines we'll cover. I spend my week just constantly looking forward to my next classes, the memberships definitely worth it and I think you get alot out of it, 100% recommend joining.

Fantastic experience: Starting at The Pole Coven is possibly one of the best decisions I have ever made! I joined just under a year ago while feeling quite down and in desperate need of a confidence boost. I was very nervous for my first class. I went alone and had no previous experience with pole, but after one class with Chlo I felt welcome and excited to start my pole journey. Since then, my love for The Pole Coven has only grown. Ive made lots of amazing new friends, become a more confident person and accomplished things I never dreamed of doing before. The Pole Coven is a LGBTQIA+ and tism friendly group and a place that I feel like I can be my most authentic self without judgement. You wont regret joining <3

Fantastic experience: Truly a family, I have never felt more at home at a pole studio as I have in the pole coven. Down to earth, accepting, and encouraging people fill up every session and give you the courage to try and enjoy something new!

Fantastic experience: The Pole Coven is a welcoming, fun and safe space to train pole. Chlo is an absolutely amazing teacher, nurturing every single student in the studio, welcoming you in a way that immediately makes you feel comfortable and at home. Chlo explains everything with so much ease and if you don’t understand, Chlo will break it down, talk you through it and teach you until you get the move. Nothing is too much trouble for Chlo when it comes to the students. The studio is clean and spacious and a lovely space to train pole, the height for the poles is amazing and they are well spaced out to allow for free movement. The location is quiet and easy to find and very convenient. The space feels safe and the people feel safe and welcoming - if you’re worried about starting pole and feeling self conscious The Pole Coven is the place for you. You will be welcomed into this fabulous community and you will leave with the biggest smile, feeling like you’ve made friends already.
