Stephanie, 28, Event Planner, Chicago
" I liked how fun it [Pole Dancing] was. I expected to feel weird and maybe a little shy doing it in
front of others, but Angela really made everyone feel so comfortable and relaxed. She has a way
of teaching that allows you to let go of your insecurities and just have fun with it."
"I wasn't sure what to expect when I took my first class. I went into it hoping for the best and
really got so much more out of it. The class sizes never exceeded four people which made the
environment of the class so much more informal. We were able to focus on the moves that were
a bit more difficult for us to conquer because the class sizes were smaller. The larger studios
just don't give you that same luxury. "
"Angela was extremely helpful and always helped me to conquer the move that was giving me
the most trouble. She also gave helpful hints on how to work out your body outside of class
which would help you to build strength for the moves she was teaching. She also utilized the
other people in the class. If there was a move that you couldn't get but someone else could, she
would have you watch both them and her for a tutorial. She always did it in a way in which you
never felt uncomfortable or stupid for not being able to do it."
"I was actually amazed at how much of a workout I got. I definitely was sore after a few of my
classes. It felt great though to get a workout while I was doing something that was so fun."
"I would definitely recommend Pole Velocity, especially for private group events. Getting a
group of your girls together for a birthday or bachelorette party and doing this would be a great
start to any night. "

"Last fall Angela came to my house and taught my friends and me how to do a chair dance. She
also brought along a pole and we had fun trying to pole dance. We laughed and had such a good
time. I would do it again."
"I think people get the wrong impression of pole dancing, when they hear the term. It's fun and
it's a good workout. Angela has fun with it. The women who came to my house were all middle
aged and we had a great time!"
Kim M., 30 - something, Chicago
"I have taken courses at the other two big name pole fitness studios in the city and Pole Velocity
is the only one I would recommend. The other places are much more crowded and the students
basically have to teach themselves due to large class sizes and we had to share the pole every
single time. If you want more personalized attention during your pole workouts without the
blaring music then this is the studio for you."
Siu H, 48, Accountant, Chicago
"I was looking for an alternative exercise class and pole dancing is a great alternative for me.
The workout gives me great muscle tone and it is fun and sexy. Angela teaches in smaller
classes, so I get a lot of one on one time. She tailors the class to the student's ability, and I get
to work on the moves that I need to improve. I would recommend this class to my friends."
Jo Anna, 33, Para Legal, Chicago
"Pole Velocity is a great workout! It is a standout because you get very individaul attention, the
instructor Angela, makes certain of this. I haven't once left this class without sweating. From the
first class forward I learned more that I even thought I would. I would recommend this class to
anyone who is looking for a great workout, some fun or who is tired and bored of the same old
workout routine. There is nothing to be apprehensive about, as I mentioned already, the
instructor is very knowledgable, very supportive. This would be one of my favorite fitness
classes that I have taken upto date. I havent even finished with the beginner class and I already
know that I will continue on with the intermediate!"
Lorraine, 50, Landscape Designer, Lions
"The class is fabulous! Angela is an excellent instructor-very patient and observant. She
challenges you yet at a level you can handle. The class really brings out your feminine side and
makes you really feel good to be female. I recommend purchasing a pole to practice on at home.
Also the health benefits are great--really works your abs and upper body. When you get to the
upside down moves the leg workout is equally as intense. I recommend this class to everyone I
know. What a fun way to exercise and feel really great about yourself! Not to mention the added
benefits for your husband/partner at home !!!"
Jennifer, 30, Performance Artist, Chicago
"I have always been intrigued by pole dancing as it looked like a lot of fun and artistic. I was in
the process of looking around for another style of dance or fitness that I haven't tried before
since I have done Latin, Contemporary, Jazz, etc. and really bored with aerobics and similar
classes. I came across pole dancing on the internet one night and decided to look into it further.
That's when I found Angela's site Pole Velocity. I was very excited about trying something new
and knew right away that I was going to give it a try. I was also impressed with her personal story,
her struggles with her own body, and how she had built this business from the ground up. It
wasn’t a corporation that overcharged like some other sites I had perused."
"Within the first few weeks I was addicted if not instantly and in addition Angela and I had a great
connection. I took some pain, and it was definitely hard work since I am not overly athletic in my
upper body strength. Most of my strength was in my legs from being a dancer for years. I have
been actively taking these classes for a few months, and have completed basic, and
intermediate courses. Currently I am in my fourth week of my first Advanced stage of classes. I
recently did a girls night out event with Angela and another advanced student and got to teach a
short routine. It was a blast and really made me feel accomplished in what I had been doing for
the past few months."
"Pole dancing has changed my life and I don’t say that lightly. It has brought me to a whole new
level of appreciating my body, inner self and worth. I feel empowered that I can conquer anything
I set my mind and dedication to, and I have met a few of her students and that’s been a plus too
to share our own experiences, and it’s also a TON OF FUN."
Kim, 38, Chicago
"My name is Kim. I am 38 yrs old and hale from Chicago. I have taken several classes with
Angela and enjoyed them all IMMENSELY! The class size is perfect for one mildly self-
conscience, as I tend to be. As an instructor, Angela was engaging, attentive and just plain
fun. I would and have recommended Angela's class."
Margaret, 23, Quality Assurance Technician, Savana, GA
"I would highly recommend Pole Velocity. I really enjoyed the small class
size and the personalized instruction. Pole dancing is a great workout!
It is both aerobic and strength building. Pole dancing has increased my
confidence and makes me feel beautiful. Angela makes the classes fun and
offers a lot of encouragement."
