✨ Self Care Sunday at TPA ✨

Take a moment to slow down, reset, and pour back into yourself. Join us Sunday, June 7th at 7 PM for a 75-minute Sound Bath Workshop designed to help you relax your body, calm your mind, and restore your energy. 🌙🎶

Sound baths use soothing vibrations and frequencies from instruments like singing bowls, chimes, and more to promote deep relaxation, stress relief, mental clarity, and emotional balance. Many people leave feeling lighter, grounded, and fully recharged. 💫

Whether you’ve been training hard, carrying stress from the week, or simply need a peaceful moment for YOU — this is your sign to practice self care intentionally. No experience needed and all are welcome. Just come as you are, get comfortable, and allow yourself to receive. 🖤

We encourage everyone to dress comfy, bring anything that helps you feel cozy, and if you’d like, bring a journal to reflect and write about your experience afterward. ✍🏽✨

✨ Flashback Friday ✨

Throwing it back to Jax doing what Jax does best—Jax'n through Bootcamp! 💪🔥

Even in this flashback, you can see the energy, encouragement, and strength she brings to every class. She isn't new to this, she's true to this. Whether she's demonstrating, motivating, or offering a little extra coaching 😉, Jax has always been about helping polers get stronger.

And a special shoutout to Ally, who was on the receiving end of that "coaching" in this video. 😂 We may be laughing, but look at her go—she looks STRONG! 💪 Sometimes the magic happens just outside your comfort zone, and Ally was absolutely rising to the challenge.

A reminder that the strongest pole skills are built outside of tricks alone. Conditioning classes help develop the strength, endurance, and body awareness that make everything on the pole feel better.

Ready to invest in your pole journey? Sign up for a class that fits your schedule: 🔥 Bootcamp 🔥 HIIPT 🔥 Bootycamp 🔥 Inversion 🔥 Inversion 2.0

Stronger conditioning creates stronger polers, and stronger polers create magic. ✨

Happy World Goth Day from the spooky side of TPA 🖤🦇

It’s no secret that TPA knows a little something about goth and goth-adjacent culture. Dark clothes, dramatic makeup, emotionally devastating playlists, and choreography that looks like it belongs in a haunted music video? Yeah… that’s kind of our thing.

There’s just something about pole and alternative expression that go hand in hand. The slow climbs, the heavy heels, the moody lighting, the dramatic hair flips, the controlled chaos of a good spin combo — it all feels a little extra magical when the vibe is dark and eerie.

From creepy-cute beginners finding confidence for the first time to our vampire royalty floating through advanced combos like immortal beings, this community has always embraced individuality. Whether your style leans goth, emo, punk, metal, witchy, grunge, or “I only feel alive during nighttime showcase rehearsals,” you belong here.

Today we celebrate the artists, movers, musicians, weird girls, weird boys, weird babes, and spooky souls who make this community feel like home. Thank you for bringing your darkness, your softness, your rage, your lace, your platform boots, and your beautifully haunted energy into the studio 🖤

Now somebody queue up Deftones, Type O Negative, and Evanescence while we do body waves under red lights.

🌸✨ THIRSTY THURSDAY ✨🌸

This week we’re watering the garden and giving all the love to our own little (Big Mama) flower bomb, Lotus 💣🌷

Her art is beauty. She is beauty. Every movement feels soft, intentional, and powerful all at once — like watching a flower bloom in real time. But what makes Lotus truly special is the resilience rooted underneath all that grace.

From walking into an Intro class in 2022 “just to try it” to becoming an instructor with XPERT Pole Level 1 & 2 Certifications, Lotus has blossomed into such a radiant force within TPA. She turned self-doubt into confidence, obstacles into growth, and fear into performance magic. FOUR showcases later and she continues to remind us what growth looks like when you keep showing up for yourself 🌱✨

Whether she’s floating through choreography, building strength, or helping students find confidence in their own bodies, Lotus brings warmth, encouragement, and beauty into every room she enters. She truly embodies resilience, rebirth, and growth — just like the flower she’s named after.

Come spin, grow, and bloom with Lotus 🌸💫

🧜‍♀️✨ THIRSTY THURSDAY ✨🧜‍♀️

This week we’re spotlighting our resident mermaid, Magpie — proof that strength plus beauty equals absolute magic. 🌊💪

With 11 years of ballet and contemporary dance behind her, movement has always lived in her soul. But after stepping away from dance for years, she found her way back to herself through pole… and thank goodness she did. One class at TPA turned into a complete love story with movement, creativity, and community.

What started as “just trying something new” quickly became performances, teaching, and becoming one of the most captivating humans to ever touch a pole. Watching Magpie move feels like watching water dance — fluid, powerful, graceful, and just a little bit enchanting. ✨

Certified in XPERT Pole Level 1 & 2 and also a Licensed Massage Therapist, Magpie brings both knowledge and care into every space she enters. 🖤

She reminds us that softness and strength can exist together. That rebuilding yourself can be beautiful. And that sometimes the best version of you is waiting on the other side of taking a chance.

✨🧚🏽‍♀️ THIRSTY THURSDAY 🧚🏽‍♀️✨

This week we’re sprinkling a little magic on the feed with our ethereal queen, Fairy ✨ If you’ve ever watched her move, you already know the name fits perfectly. She doesn’t just dance… she floats. Every spin, shape, and transition looks like gravity personally agreed to leave her alone for a bit.

Fairy began her pole journey at The Pole Academy in 2023 after finding pole during one of the lowest points in her life. What started as chance quickly became transformation. Through movement, she discovered confidence, empowerment, and a way to reconnect with herself beyond perfectionism and self-doubt. Pole gave her space to be seen, and we are so lucky she chose to share that light with all of us. ✨

Known for her dreamy spin flow and gorgeous shapes, Fairy brings softness, strength, and intention into every room she enters. She reminds us that growth doesn’t always have to be loud — sometimes it’s graceful, gentle, and still incredibly powerful. Watching her evolve into an instructor has been such a beautiful thing, and her students are already feeling the magic she brings to class. 🩷

We adore our floating forest fairy and the safe, welcoming energy she creates at TPA. If you haven’t taken a class with her yet, prepare to leave feeling enchanted ✨🧚🏽‍♀️

✨ Technique Tuesday Reminder ✨

Last week’s Technique Tuesday answer was: Elbow Grip 💪🏽🔥
Every move in these photos features an elbow grip, and while they definitely take some getting used to, the payoff is SO worth it. Once you see how strong, elegant, and stunning these shapes can be, you’ll understand why we love them so much 😍✨

Keep conditioning, keep practicing, and trust the process — your elbow grip era is coming 💖
