    Beautiful studio.
    Friendly professional and supportive staff.
    I love the class structure. Slow and sexy and you get a workout. Simply it feels very feminine and natural for a woman to workout like this.
    Your inner style is encouraged to be discovered and you just let go and ....................awesome.
    I love the vibe of the place.
    Phenomenal workout.

    It was upon my mother's recommendation that we take a pole dance class with Aradia well over a year ago now. My first reaction was "Dude, there is NO way I am pole dancing with my mother!" She persisted, so I went, simply to appease her. We arrived for our teaser class to be greeted by warm and friendly instructors and a very comfortable studio. I was incredibly out of shape from carrying around a lot of post pregnancy weight and wasn't entirely sure I'd make it through the class. We took the floor work VERY slow and I could definitely feel it! With a lot of encouragement from our instructor Carmelle, I felt very at ease and comfortable in my own skin (for the first time in a long time).

    Once my turn came to have a swing on the pole, I was apprehensive, but so excited! There is something so liberating about being able to defy gravity with your own body's strength! It's the closest you can come to flying without actually sprouting wings. I was hooked! I immediately signed up for classes, have been moving up through my levels, and now have a pole in my living room (which I refuse to take down)! My baby weight just fell off! I'm in the best shape I've ever been in my life and I'm having a blast keeping it that way! No more treadmills! I think it's highly unnatural for us pay to monotonously run as though we're hamsters on a wheel. Be expressive, love your body and DANCE!

    After seeing pole dancing on Oprah, I just had to try it! A google search later and I had a class booked with Aradia Fitness in Burlington, using their online registration. I was willing to drive 2 hrs to my nearest location, just to try it.

    I was thrilled to be greeted by Carmelle, and realized that she didn't fit the intimidating pole dancer I had created in my mind. I went for a Teaser class.. and TEASE it was! We did floor work and pole work. It was amazing to learn a sexy floor routine that tricked me into thinking I wasn't working out. I was then called by name up to the pole... This is where I learned to fly... It was finally my turn to gain confidence, feel sexy, and prove to myself that I could do it.. I grabbed the brass between my hands and never looked back!

    I have since ordered my very own Aradia brass pole.. and the 3 DVD's they offer... I have ever other pole dancing DVD out there (Sheila Kelly's S factor, Pole Lot of Fun, Fawnia's, Pole Addiction, and others..) Aradia Fitness DVD's are the best I've ever seen. Tracy and Christine walk you through move by move in a way that allows you to progress naturally. The set is wonderful, and the quality is better than the rest. If you can't make it to a class yourself, get the DVD's, you'll learn the same moves plus more!

    I encourage anyone to go to any Aradia location... If you're shy take a friend, but trust me... You'll never look back.

    When I went to my first Aradia class a year ago I had no idea what to expect. I was actually pretty nervous but as soon as I walked into the door any hesitation I had disappeared. The instructors were there to greet everyone who walked in the door. The classes are fun and the structure is amazing! Im always learning something new!! The instructors are professional and I really like the fact that they are all certified. Im amazed at the changes in my body and Im stronger than I ever thought possible! If you havent tried it yet.....just do it!!!

    I was introduced to Aradia nearly a year ago and instantly fell in love! Not only does the entire program give you a fabulous work out but I found my confidence and over all image about myself has changed. I have see such a transformation in my body...after two babies! One of the many things that sets Aradia above the others is the structure of the classes. You are taught the basics on a one on one instuction on how to walk, hold and spin properly without the fear of injury. As I have worked my way through the levels I find myself stonger and more comfortable with the pole spins and movements. The floor work helps build the upperbody strength needed for spins and my abs and butt have never looked better!! I highly recommend Aradia to anyone who wants to impove their strength, mind, body and soul. I encourage any sceptic to attend a class...you'll be as in love with it as I am!
    Keep up the great work Ladies!!

    I have taken everything you can think of, Yoga(hot and not), pilates, jogging, spinning, step classes, the list goes on and on so when I tried pole dancing I had no idea Aradia could convert me! I have been going for over 8 months now and I love it! The studio was a bit dowdy but they're moving to a new location I can't wait! The teachers are so patient, I have no dance background and had 2 left feet but no more! Everyone made me feel very welcome which I never found at yoga or pilates classes .One of my new years resolutions was to spend more time on the pole, I ordered myself one for Xmas woohoo!

    I thought I would give the pole a try since so many of my friends thought it would be fun to give it a shot. The studio was not that great, the staff was okay and I expected more from the class. I found the website a little all over the place. It is a great workout though.

    I hate going to the gym. I always found that when I went to the gym, I would feel less sexy or less attractive because I'm curvy and not shaped like a 12 year old boy. As a result, I was always looking for fun new ways to workout. Aradia has been by far the best way ever!! I've now been a student at Aradia Fitness for just over a year and I LOVE IT!!! =) Being self-conscious, I was nervous at first. Once I got there, I was pleased to see women of all different ages and sizes. The instructors are personable, patient, encouraging and my favourite part is that they are all REAL WOMEN. Whether its your instructor or your classmate, there is always someone to cheer you on. The safe and comfortable environment helped me to feel amazing and strong both inside and out. Within no time I started to see muscle definition. I found a way to get strong, feel confident and sexy all at the same time!! I'm so proud of how strong I am now! Oh, and they have a wide variety of classes, instructional videos and even poles for sale! Aradia Rocks!! I highly recommend it!!

    I've been attending the classes with Aradia for just over 2 months and I've noticed some beautiful changes! What I can appreciate is the instructors are real people and the class structure is brilliant. I am feeling so sexy and so in control of my life - something I lost touch with many years ago. I would highly recommend the classes to anyone - we had such a great mixture of women in my classes and yet everyone felt like they belonged as a group.

    Its even for shy girls! I was a bit unsure what to expect from my first class so I brought a friend with me. I was expecting a bunch of skinny fitness bunnies but instead the class was filled with all types of women including moms, curvy girls and women in their 40s. I loved it! Its like we were all learning something totally new together. The instructors were really warm, patient and welcoming. The broke everything down so even I could get it and I have no.. i mean NO coordination at all! I'm now hooked! I take classes every week and the best thing of all is that I'm starting to feel a bit stronger with my new arm muscles. Its too much fun!
