Supportive

I absolutely love brass vixens! When I used to live downtown Toronto, I would take 2 classes a day, 4 days a week. Any chance that I got to be at the studio, I would take it! The staff is very friendly and the girls in the classes are super supportive!

I read reviews on Brass Vixens as well as other places in Toronto and this place had the best reviews... and I can see why! I took the pole tease class to try out the fitness class since it had been something I was interested in doing for a long time now. I wanted to know how far behind I was and if I needed to spend more time working on my cardio to keep up. But I found out that it really is a class that anyone can take from the absolute beginner to the more advanced fitness fanatic. The instructor was fun and the class was playful and sexy. The class was also challenging and it worked out my arms and back which is exactly what I was hoping for.

The classes do help you feel very sexy; I enjoyed it so much that I immediately signed up for one of their 4 week sessions starting with the "pole beginners" class and I have ever intention in continuing to the advanced level pole dancing classes. Everyone is super friendly and very helpful. I missed one of the 4 week session classes and they allowed me to make up the class the following week in another class that was running later in the day. There were no questions asked either. The girls here are fantastic and I would HIGHLY recommend taking these classes over others in the city that had high reviews as well; I found that Brass Vixens was a higher quality class and that the instructors and other women in my classes were really friendly.

The only problem is that I'm hooked! I've signed up for their chair striptease class and I'm now looking at what other classes I can take. Hula hoop? Aerial?

I love Aradia Fitness and their staff! The ladies are all top of the line and super friendly! They make you feel welcomed and bring out the wild sexy side in you! Even for shy girls like me! I took 2 levels of the pole dancing classes with them! What a work out!! I've also taken a few of the classes they offer, such as Zumba and Hula Hoop! Definitely give these ladies a try! I give them two massive thumbs up!! :)

I went to Aradia Fitness last night at their downtown location and I absolutely loved it!
I went as part of a party for my friend, and it was such a fun time.
The teacher was helpful and really funny and all of us really had a great time.
I'm definitely planning on going back and taking more lessons!

I love this workout- I have been going for a month or so and I am already level 2!! yay for me! I know 5 moves already. The fitness instructors are very very professional and they make you feel completely comfortable. Shannon is great!
you also feel very sexxy with the moves.
I will be working out here for a long long time!

I take classes at the Uptown Toronto location at Allen Rd and Eglinton. The classes are just crazy fun and what a workout! I feel super buff after taking these classes. It takes a lot to keep me interested and these classes keep me coming back each week. Its such a change of pace from working at a desk all day. I look forward to my class each week.

I absolutely love it. It is the best work out in the world............The instructors are, fun, creative and really make you feel comfortable about doing sexy things around the pole and really know how to boost your self esteem.

The classes are great and you meet a lot of wonderful ladies with whom you quickly become friends

I LOVE ARADIA

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.
