A fantastic place to learn, BPDA is a well equipped and welcoming studio. All of the instructors are fantastic and the variety of lessons on offer is second to none, there really is something for everyone. Absolutely everyone is made to feel welcome, there is no judgement here. My confidence has increased 10 fold since I started pole dancing at the British Pole Dance Academy.

I learnt that you have to be very flexible

Wonderful friendly, non judgemental staff,

Instructors are amazing, theyre really friendly and make you feel comfortable. They offer body conscious classes and help you to feel amazing in your own skin. Ive been to a few different studios and this one is by far the best

Great instructor. Great fun.

Love it always good classes and private classes are ace too!

Great place to learn pole or aerial. I came here knowing no one and found both the instructors and other students all welcoming and friendly. The staff are very knowledgeable and teach well and safely but also make each session fun! You can choose to pay a membership or pay as you go, And can join group classes or opt for private lessons. Highly recommend BPDA :)

Best pole studio I have EVER been to (and Ive been to many!!Debs is an amazing teacher as well as being a beautiful person inside and out! !

BPDA is one of my most favorite places in the world. I started 18months ago, on my first lesson I was really nervous and very self conscious. But I was immediately put at ease by the welcoming atmosphere created by the instructors and other students. Everyone is so friendly, its like a little community! Everyone accepts you for who you are, no matter what your body hang ups (letss face it we all have them). The instructors are truly amazing, in their teaching and in their own pole dancing skills, they are so inspiring. The studio is beautiful, really big and the floor to ceiling poles are great. I love having the height of the poles as it makes moves look extra special. As soon as Ive finished my lesson Im already looking forward to my next one.If you are considering pole dancing or even just fancy having a go, BPDA is the place to do it. Just be warned once you walk through those doors you never want to leave!!!

The British Pole Dance Academy is one of the best places to be. I started 4 years ago and have not looked back ad cannot imagine my life without pole now. Deb has created such a fun and fantastic environment to be in where you can be who you are and not feel judged. Deb is an amazing instructor and, along with her fellow teachers Sasha, Hollie and Dannii, they provide the best classes for pole, hoop, silks and flexibility training. I cannot believe the things i can do now and it has improved my upper body strength and given me so much confidence. Its thanks to Deb that i even got to appear in an article about the studio for The Sentinel back in 2011.Ive met some really wonderful people here and it really does feel like a family.I will always be greatful and thankful to the BDPA for giving me the self esteem and body confidence that was missing for so long in my life. I proudly tell people about the studio and would encourage anyone who is thinking of having a try to come along.

Whenever I think about BDPA all that comes into my mind is "Love it Love it Love it!!!!!!" It fits into my life very well and more importantly it has toned me up, there is always something else to work towards. I am also attending the splits course which is fab (cant do them yet but its my goal for 2013!!). The instructors are fantastic, very friendly and fun! If you are interested in Pole Dancing then you will NOT be disappointed with BDPA!!

Coming to the British Pole Dance Academy is the best thing I have ever done. The quality of the instructors training by Deb Riley is incredible. I have achieved so much more than I ever imagined I could and my body can do things that I didnt even know was possible three years ago. I can not recommend pole dancing more, and I can not recommend a better place to start your pole dance experience than The British Pole Dance Academy.

The BPDA is a beautiful studio with loads of poles (no sharing required!). The instructors are amazing and super friendly. The support and encouragement you receive from the instructors and fellow students alike is second to none, for me they have become my extended family. Deb Riley is a true inspiration and Stoke-on-Trent is extremely lucky to have her. You wont find a studio better this!Pole dancing is not only THE most fun exercise you can do it is the biggest confidence booster you can get. For anyone thinking of giving this a go all I can say is come along, I promise you wont regret it. Learning to pole dance was the best decision Ive ever made and has become a very big part of my life, why not make it part of yours too!

When i first came to BPDA i thought to myself, how the hell am i going to swing around a pole?? Well after the first go, i soon felt a sense of achievement! The instructors fully explained everything to ensure we did the moves safely and properly making the lesson enjoyable…until the pain came the next day but hey, no pain no gain, right? Ive been going for quite a few months now and taken part in the flexxy classes and can say each and every lesson i feel stronger, fitter and more confident! I cannot recommend enough the British Pole Dancing Academy in Burslem Stoke-on-Trent!!

I dont think I can express how truly awesome the British Pole Dance Academy is. I stared to go because it seemed to me at the time an unusual form of fitness. That was over a year ago and I am now addicted:-Its like a second home for me. The instructors are all lovely and great fun. I look forward to going because i know Ill get a good workout and have a great laugh while doing it. Im fitter and my tummy is flatter and Im stronger! Whoop. If youre unsure if its for you then go to one of the drop ins, as I did, and give that a go. Happy poling peeps :-)

As soon as you open the door to BPDA all you see is smiles on everyones faces its such a great place to be and i love it! Deb is a true inspiration to me and to everyone who goes there, all the instructors are amazing! Ive met such great people in a short space of time and i will not stop coming to this place, my confidence has grown loads and this is down to deb and the instructors, so thankyou! :if you are looking to start pole dancing this is the place to come you will not regret it. x
