What to Expect

Our 6-week summer programs are carefully designed to ensure you progress safely and effectively week on week, while working with your individual strengths and weaknesses. Although you will be starting as a group, the program consists of progressions and variations, because we’re not all exactly the same, so why would our bodies move exactly the same way?

Programs are set out to up your confidence on the pole, or give you a good basis of trying out aerial hoop and aerial fabric! All while building strength, awareness and coordination, supporting body neutrality in an uplifting and welcoming social environment.

Who is it for?

Programs are specifically designed for those with no prior experience of pole dance or aerial arts. No gym, yoga, or dance background is required. Start as you are!

Programs are also a great way to find your feet again if you have been on a longish break and would like to dive back into the wonderful world of upside down!

Why do it?

Pole and aerial arts are unlike any other fitness programs: uplifting (literally and figuratively), positive, encouraging, welcoming, individual, creative, strong, confidence boosting, empowering, fun, lighthearted, challenging, tough, gritty, non-competitive, body neutral, GOOD FOR BODY, MIND AND SOUL!

Seriously though, body weight exercise such as pole and aerial is great for you if you’d like to overall:

feel a bit stronger, happier and more positive, meet some amazing new people, make time for yourself and carry the shopping without being so out of breath!

What’s included?

Most importantly, your weekly 60 minute class!

On top of this, your program includes a welcome gift, weekly emails to chat about your progress and receive a hefty dose of encouragement and coaching so you never feel like you have to go it alone!

PLUS: We’re gifting you UNLIMITED and FREE online flexibility and pilates classes for the ultimate summer feel-good!

AND AND AND: You receive an epic 25% graduate discount on any membership when you continue your training after the 6 weeks πŸ™‚

What about the Summer Series Max package?

The max package includes all the benefits of your course as outlined above, plus an additional 6 drop-in classes. The cost for 12 sessions in 6 weeks, with the support of the course, perks and drop in classes is Β£150. Please email us and we will put together a bespoke package for you.

What happens if I miss a class?

All cool! You receive a code and instructions in your course confirmation email that allow you to book catch up classes so you can get your fix on another day!

How much is it?

Absolute bargain of only Β£75 for the 6 week course program for pole or aerial arts. Includes your weekly class, welcome gift, coaching emails, graduate discount and unlimited, free online flexibility and pilates. Summer Series Max with 2 sessions per week is Β£150.

Rachel’s Story – Aerial Course Feedback

So, I’m into the band BTS, and was watching some of their videos last year and in one of them they all go to Aerial yoga and I thought that it looked like so much fun, I really wanted to give it a go! Obviously I headed straight to Google and found Momentum 😊 You did some Aerial yoga at the end of last year but I couldn’t make most of the dates so grumpily resigned myself to have to wait for the next lot you did (which, hilariously I STILL have never managed to make – one day!) but then when the course was announced for January 2023 it piqued my interest.
I’ve never enjoyed anything sporty much, ever. P.E was hell at school, I’m super uncoordinated, not very fit and had absolutely no upper body strength (it’s a dream to be able to do a press up one day). I’m 6ft tall, clumsy, and have always generally felt like one of those wavy armed inflatables that you get outside of car dealerships. Like I don’t have much control over my body and I just get in the way! Aerial hoop looked doable, cool, and I thought it wouldn’t hurt or give me bruises.

Walking into Momentum for the first time I was really happy to see that everyone looked “normal”. It was all entirely doable, and I could do so much considering I could barely support my own bodyweight with my arms and hands. I have never enjoyed a form of exercise as much as I LOVE this. I could see the gains in skill and strength week by week, and the supportive atmosphere of the class with celebrating hitting moves has never gotten old, not two years later now that I go up to five times per week!
I now feel so much more in control of my body, feel powerful, actually have some upper body strength and my core is finally building back up, 4 years after giving birth!

I love being able to tell people I do Aerial Arts, I love the community around the studio, I still adore coming home at the end of a class and showing the pics and videos of what I’ve achieved, and I’m getting SO CLOSE to some new goal moves and it’s so exciting.
All thanks to watching BTS do Aerial yoga back in 2022!

Shannon’s Story – Pole Course Feedback

I have an extensive background in dance and actually qualified as a dance teacher. Sadly this was a stressful and rather terrible experience that left me falling out of love with dance, really knocked my confidence for many years and I abandoned it. After a while, I began to miss this type of movement, but needed something different.

So I researched starting pole as it’s something I had always admired, and thought looked so beautiful, and I found Momentum. I joined the pole course in September 2022, and it’s genuinely changed my life; pole has helped me become so much more confident and self-assured. I feel at home when I’m at the studio, and movement has become a joy again rather than a chore – even if I do find it really hard still (lol). The whole community is so uplifting and kind, and I honestly don’t know what I’d do without pole, it has become such a fundamental part of my life. I believe it’s the only reason I’ve been able to regain confidence after being an anxious mess with no self-esteem for so long. I’ve tried so many classes, everyone has been so lovely and welcoming throughout. I do not know where I’d be without pole/Momentum, and it found me when I needed it most. Thank you for such an incredible, safe and uplifting community, it means the world πŸ’—

Having to miss our Cheltenham pole and aerial arts courses this summer?

Days and times not working for you?

Don’t panic in the slightest πŸ™‚

You can start ANY of our disciplines at ANY time with our drop in classes, and choose a session that works for you and your schedule.

Pole, Heels Pole, Aerial Hoop, Aerial Silks, Aerial Sling, we’ve got them all as weekly beginner drop in classes too πŸ™‚

We know what you think: “But I have a ton of questions, and is it scary starting drop in rather than on a course?”

Thing is, everything that is new and challenging is scary, but doing the thing is the only way to grow in confidence. You got this! It’s a wonderfully aspirational way to get going as you will see in class what is possible with repeated training over the course of weeks and months!

So grab your fave leggings or joggers, bring some water and come and hang out with us! We’re excited to meet you in class! xxx
