BeSpun Pole Dance Workout - Hollywood

fun, fresh, and easy for new learners. instructors are very kind and knowledgeable. safe space for LGBTQ+ people

I was treated horribly by the instructor Catherine. It was only my second time in the studio. I was 10 minutes late. And I was reprimanded in front of the entire class like I was a child. The instructor said it would be dangerous for me to continue the class because I wasn't warmed up. But I swear we weren't even halfway through the warm-up. Ice stayed after constant bullying and hostility from the instructor: Catherine. Because Another student I wanted to be part of the mean girls club she joined in on the bullying. My first pole dancing experience was at Evolv many years ago. I believe that studio is closed now. So after years of wanting to get back into pole I decided to try this class. I'm happy I only did the three session deal because it has become apparent that this studio Bespun is nothing like the Black lead and diverse pole class I'm used to. I find, Catherine, the instructor to be extremely rude, mean, callous, and racist. So bully me about being late is comically racially charged. Mind you, I was late to my first class-- and so was another participant. I paid my money just like everyone else. I should be able to take the class without such nastiness. If she wanted me to warm up even more that could've been a compromise. Like I said I stayed and I did the warm-up. Again they weren't even halfway through with it. I had no issue with my first instructor. But Catherine had an issue with me. She continued to be angry and condescending throughout the entire class. I recommend you stay far away from her in this place.

I love this studio, such a wonderful atmosphere, the instructors are so supportive, fun and talented! They made modifications for anyone who needed it, patiently helped when I was struggling with something, and taught us a good amount in just one class. Not only did I have a blast during these classes, it was also a serious workout. I can't recommend BeSpun Studio enough -- if you're thinking about it, DO IT! You won't regret it!

Our instructor Deborah we are so very grateful & fortunate to have BeSpun available once a week for us. 7-8 poles available, at least one spins. Only thing that would make this better is more room to move around. It's also fun to have props, like a chair. Have not taken any of their classes during week. Very clean studio! Parking best off of Sunset.

Writing this review it's way long over due
The reason I had to mention this is because their customer service skill is very poor
Discrimination toward Asian most likely
The owner wasn't even better at it helping
This is about five years back
And I believe they either kick me out cause I got there late or I started class there but earlier due to traffic is horrible
I never want to go there to face their attitude
So what if someone is late or early
The classes you offer always in traffic time
Hollywood sunset is really bad on this traffic
They basically don't work with you
The rules which is not that important because it doesn't make sense in any legal matter at all

Loved joining the Pole Jam Session! Surrounded myself with positive, like-minded individuals. Great ambiance. At moments, I observed other dancers showcase their phenomenal talent. The human body is amazing! A few dancers provided pointers on shifting my weight to successfully perform a pole trick. All of the night's proceeds went to benefit LA's LGBT Center. Oh! There was a raffle and giveaways from the event's sponsors.

Very friendly and inspiring, they also have levels to choose from, so you can track your progress. Very cute and clean studio. A lot of coaches to choose from too. I love it)

Had a great first ever session today, with my friend who is visiting! Neither of us have pole danced before, but play sports/do yoga, so we have some background strength that helped us out in the class. We were lucky enough to have a 2-on-1 session with Kelsea, who was lovely and very supportive and pumped us up. She taught us lots of moves, from walking, to spins, to fan kicks and head stands at the pole. So much fun! Would totally recommend for a great confidence boost for you and your friends!

I wish I would've known that I would have been sharing a pole, as the studio books more students than poles per class. I got to dance for maybe 5 minutes. Including learning the choreography. Sadly I left feeling as though it was a complete waste of money and time. The instructors choreography was good and I would've liked to actually get to dance it. Super bummed and won't be back. Hopefully this review saves someone from having the same experience as I did.

I love bespun!!! If you're looking to push yourself and learn some amazing tricks and choreography this is the place. First class can be intimidating but after that initial time it gets addicting.
