At Momentum Pole & Aerial, we ask every new starter what their goals are for the next three months, and what made them want to start training pole or aerial arts. 

I kid you not, about 95% of new beginners cite confidence in their answers. Either wanting to find confidence in their bodies, or challening themselves to a new hobby and sport as a means to build more confidence. 

And I will go as far as saying that pole and aerial classes are perhaps one of the most impactful ways for adults to build confidence. Not just in class, but a confidence that also carries over to other areas of life. 

Ok cool you think, yes I get that. But what actually is confidence exactly? How does it build through pole and aerial? And is there stuff I can do to become more confident in my classes and life generally?

Let’s find out! We have not one, but two episodes for you that dive into the topic of confidence and how to get more of it.

Tune in for a short and bite-sized episode on building confidence via pole and aerial training, how confidence is built in the first place, and why it is ok to start classes without any!

And we have pole and burlesque teacher Rachael share her journey as someone who started off with very little belief and confidence in her body, to fully embracing her body and herself thanks to the power of pole dance!
