I have been a patron and employee of North Shore Pole Fitness since 2016. Dorian is an amazing person and studio owner. The studio is clean, organized, well managed, and a positive work environment. I also attend classes and I enjoy every single instructor I have had classes with. The culture is fun, accepting, and positive and we always have a lot of laughs. This studio is so much more than just a Pole Dance Studio; it is a community, a family, and a support system and is always welcoming. I love NSPF!

Absolutely love this place! High quality teachers and establishment. Owner is approachable and responsive. If you’re going to try pole I highly recommend this studio

Great teachers who are really good people but very unprofessional and rude owner with no business ettiequte or boundaries at all. Will blow up your phone, have your teachers give you personal or private messages to you about your account, Gossips about the clients IN class in front of other students. It's like a whole ecosystem and if you bother the cult leader, the whole environment changes lol. Over all a good place to try pole and learn though only because instructors that work here.(this review is about the business and not the classes itself. If I were to rate the classes individually by teacher, this would be very different and would mostly be 4-5 stars)

I have been coming to North Shore since they opened over ten years ago. The business owner, Dorian Brown took me in as one of her own and I never left. Here, I found a one of a kind family who loves and supports me unconditionally. No matter how consistent or inconsistent I am there is a team here that ALWAYS welcomes me back with open arms.I have been even more shocked and surprised when I learn how to do something I never thought my body could; learning to let go of fear and trust myself. This form of workout tackles all issues for me; physical, mental, and spiritual.I have taken most all classes and love that there is always an opportunity for growth as a dancer, as a creative, and as someone who just wants to build strength in their body. One of my favorite times every year is the showcase where I am able to share a piece of myself through dance.I would be so lost without this place and have so much gratitude for the opportunity to be a part of this community. There is really no other workout like the one you get here and there is no other community like the one you will find here.

Ive been going here for about a year and a half now and I love it! The community is filled with supportive instructors and students. Everyone wants you to succeed and they help give you the tools to do so. You gain so much strength as you work on fitness, but there’s also classes that focus on sensuality and flow. I’ve gained so much confidence from being here. People want to be here and it shows. 10/10 ❤️

Truly love the studio and the space it creates. I want to see the studio continue to thrive and succeed! Some thoughts to help elevate the experience for students:- Diversify teachers, seek instructors that represent the diverse community attending classes.-Provide a transparent curriculum for students to understand their goals to advance to the next level.-Embrace origins of pole and celebrate your individual sensuality! Pole goes beyond fitness; expression comes in all styles of movement.-Encourage teachers to continue their training so they confidently and safely demo new moves for students, inspiring them to continue their training.-Run monthly observations for teachers to ensure the quality and structure of class is consistent across the board.-Rotate teachers through different classes they qualify for. Providing different instructors for the same class type exposes students to alternative instructing styles, perspectives and adds variety to our strength and conditioning.Hopefully some of the above can come to fruition to help us students enhance our training! Can't wait for my next class :)

Finding North Shore Pole Fitness has been truly life changing.  It's the first time in my life (37 years to be exact) that I've enjoyed exercise.  I love the body positivity and it's been so helpful for my self esteem.
