Announcement regarding our pole retreats 🌴💗🌴 The Villa - Island Pole Retreats

A question I get asked a lot by prospective students is if you have to wear shorts when coming to your first ever pole class.
For a lot of us, the thought of baring our legs makes us feel anxious and uncomfortable. You may be breathing a sigh of relief, knowing that leggings are absolutely fine for the first couple of pole sessions. 🙃
The practical reason why we wear shorts in pole class is because bare skin grips to the pole, clothes don’t. And when you learn to climb the ...pole or hang off it with the support of just your knee, your skin grip is what allows you to elevate to dizzying heights and what keeps you safe in those upside down gravity-defying poses.
Now the “other” and really super cool reason we wear shorts in pole class is because through coming to lessons, we learned to accept and like our bodies, we started to feel ok, happy and comfortable in shorts, and we’re in a safe space where no one is judging 🖤 how beautiful is that? It may seem scary and intimidating to come in for a class where the others in the room including your teachers wear hot pants and crop tops. Quite frankly, it may seem a bit outlandish at first.
Yet, it’s spending that one hour a week with those very same people that will show you that cellulite doesn’t matter, that age doesn’t matter, that size, shape, fitness level, scars, stretch marks or any other physical attribute we deem imperfect or unworthy does not matter. What matters is you, as a person.
As your strength grows, so will your confidence which will correlate with an increase in “happy in shorts”-mindset. With this also comes a keen interest in treating yourself to new pole wear!! Hands up if you can vouch for this 😛😛💕💕 photo from @estaatiyah1 xxx

Whether it’s pole dancing and learning to lift your own body weight, getting to grips with beautiful poses on aerial hoop, getting to know the yoga hammock and allowing yours...elf to relax while suspended from a piece of silk (so soft ♥️), dancing and sweating with all the sexy sass you’ve got or getting to know the world while attempting to balance on your hands, we will show you how to do all these things, we support you, we think you’re awesome, we will applaud you and please be warned we do also jump up and down in celebration of all the victories we have in class 😘 so, what’s holding you back?

You know what, if I could give this place a 10 out of 5, I would.



I have been coming here for three months and I've tried almost all of the classes and I can say without a doubt that the level of teaching is fantastic, but more than that every instructor wants you to well, wants you to have a fantastic time and is incredibly supportive in your journey.



Anna has done a brilliant job of not only creating a beautiful studio, but assembling a team of talented, thoughtful and kind instructors.



This also includes the students, there is an incredibly warm atmosphere and everyone is welcoming.



If it's your first time going to pole or your fiftieth, this is definitely the place to come and train.

What a fantastic studio. Clean, plenty of space, lots of poles and prospects of developing more. Anna is an incredible teacher. So friendly and encouraging. I left momentum feeling like i had achieved a lot of new things and even perfected old stuff. The hour dissapeared before my eyes, I was having so much fun. She broke it all down easily, I managed to understand it all and pull off moves I couldn't do before. I highly recommend learning here :)

So happy I found this place! I was so nervous in my first session but the atmosphere at the studio is so supportive and fun that you can’t be nervous for long! Aerial yoga is now the best part of my week and I can’t wait to give everything else a go!

Really enjoyed tonight :) I went from a total pole noob to being able to lift my feet off the floor (granted it was for maybe 5 seconds haha). The instructors are lovely and make you feel very much at home. xx

Nothing else to say! Positive vibes, positive welcoming people in a friendly environment all wanting to have fun and learn! �

Momentum is in a quirky little location in a trading estate, always found a car parking space and it would be nice and easy to get to from the docks. There are toilets there, a changing space and also water/hot drinks provided with honesty box.



Anna answered any queries I had quickly and was very friendly. The initial trial deal is great value and I'd imagine it would be a real good introduction for newbies.



The poles are all 45mm now and mostly static, although there is spinny for those who can't resist hurling themselves round (me). They are standard ceiling height although I think there are plans afoot to extend these and make use of the buildings tall ceilings - exciting!



Anna as an instructor is positive, patient, adaptable and tolerant of me when I inevitably turn up a little late. So far I haven't failed to learn something in her lessons, which is impressive given that you expect to plateau at the point I'm at. Everyone attending is supportive, friendly and fun.



Pole has been fantastic for my rehabilitation from an injury, improving my flexibility and strength. But the bottom line is it is just so...much...fun. Try it!

Many thanks to Anna for all the effort and passion put in her project, her business and for creating this supportive community where everyone feels welcome and embraced. Thanks to all the teachers in the studio, you are all fantastic people. And thank you for all the fun that we share, it's a great relief after a stressful day at work.

Incredible welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Anna has managed to create a fantastic blend of fun and fitness, where any anxieties you may have coming in will be forgotten about the moment you step through the door.

I had my first beginners pole fitness lesson last night and I absolutely loved it. I was a bit nervous about coming on my own but I felt very welcome as soon as I got there. Anna wasn't my teacher but still made the time to come and introduce herself which was lovely. Rachael is a fantastic teacher and even though she made us work hard she made the lesson fun and the hour went so quickly! She spent a lot of time with each of us shaping the class to what suited our abilities and making sure that everyone was happy and having fun! I'm happy to say that after one lesson I'm hooked and I cannot wait for my next! Thanks Momentum Pole for finally giving me exercise that I look forward to doing!

I go to momentum for a whole host of reasons. The teachers are amazing, and supportive whilst pushing you miles out of you comfort zone. You are surrounded by people who want and are willing you to achieve your goals, no matter you size, shape, strength or age. Anna's attitude to all who visit the studio makes it an awesome place to spend time.

I absolutely love coming to pole and hoop here I highly recommend everyone is so friendly and welcoming � all teachers are amazing �

Had my first aerial hoop class and absolutely loved it! I suffer with an anxiety disorder and was very worried but tge staff are amazing and so welcoming. They are very supportive and went out if their way to make me feel calm and confident. I would recomment a class to anyone who has anxiety as I found it allowed me to concentrate and put the energy into the hoop. Would be nice to have a package available like a gym membership price where you can try few classes each week. I cant wait to see how my fitness, strength, confidence and body progress!

Fab place only just discovered.... aerial yoga great fun, will defo be back regularly and will try beginner pole asap! Very friendly all round! X

Did my first aerial hoop class this week and loved it! Such a lovely vibe to the studios and Anna and the team are fab. Have booked up for a block of classes and can’t wait to get back there again.

Anna is amazing! I have done both private and beginners classes now Anna has been really supportive and cheered me on with every move and encouraged me to do my best� would highly recommend

Absolutely love coming to Pole fitness! Anna is a wonderful teacher and makes you feel so welcome and included (if anyone is worried about coming on their own).
