Open Practices

Open practices are exactly what they say on the tin – Practice what you’ve learned in classes to your own music, at your own pace, at a time that suits.

These hour-long sessions aren’t instructor led, and you can use the time how you feel best. 

Rules & Guidance:

Open Pole Practices are for training and practising material that has been covered in previous ProvocaFIT pole or dance classes.
Students may only attend an Open Pole Practice if they have attended a group class or a 1-2-1 lesson up to 2 weeks prior to the practice. Only students who have attended a pole class within the last 2 weeks may use the poles during an Open Practice.
No instruction or spotting is available from ProvocaFIT instructors during this session. Instructors are available in the event of an accident or emergency only. As such, attendees must only practice low-risk moves and tricks which they are confident in executing safely by themselves.
By participating in an Open Pole Practice you acknowledge that there are increased risks involved when training without professional instruction and spotting. You agree to be responsible for any and all injuries, accidents or other misfortune that may occur during the session and will not hold ProvocaFIT or any of its instructors responsible for the above.
The following rules apply to all attendees of Open Pole Practices:
– Warm up fully before beginning your pole practice.
– Only practice tricks or movement that you are confident in executing safely.
– Only practice tricks or movement that has been taught by a ProvocaFIT instructor.
– Do not attempt to spot another student unless you have been appropriately trained to do so.
– Make use of safety mats where needed.
– Do not attend with any person who has not also booked a space for the practice session (no friends, children, partners, etc. are permitted to observe or take part in the practice).
– Please be considerate of other students, especially when doing floorwork, playing music or filming yourself.
