I came to Austin for a bachelorette trip and my favorite part of the trip was Brass Ovaries. I…read moredidn't know what to expect when seeing pole dancing as part of our itinerary then driving into a sketchy-looking plaza near the freeway.. but who knew behind those tinted windows were 90 mins of fun?! The place is covid-friendly and clean. When you first enter, they will ask to take your temperature, ask you to sign a waiver, and remove your shoes before going past the blue curtains where the poles are. Alcohol & towels are provided to you for sanitizing your poles or to make the sweat go away. Our instructor was by the stage name Zifatigg Bonbon. She was funny, professional, and very sweet! She encouraged us to go at our own place, would re-review any moves if we didn't understand it, and taught us how to move our gluteus Maximus muscles - which blew my mind by the way!! We also had the chance to perform for each other with Zifatigg guiding the way and throw some dolla billz ;) I came out bruised and sore all over, but it was definitely fun that it has me considering taking classes back home! I have a newfound respect for pole dancers and honestly, I see it like art now. I definitely recommend Brass Ovaries (ask for Zifatigg!), especially for bachelorette parties!

Now with the studio's name of "Vespertine", this studio is truly a home away from home. It's very…read morewell taken care of, the classes and instructors are a JOY to be around, and the parking is easy with two lots being a dirt lot right next to the studio as well as street parking in front of the houses on the street. Now mind you, this ain't ya' mama's pole and dance studio! It is so much more. If you want to feel the technical *perfection* of being a pole ballerina, this may not be the place (however Pole Virgins and Pole Harlots with Ruby will give you some really good technical tips). However, in my opinion, this space IS the best place to start your pole/sensual dance journey. You can always learn technicality, but here is where you can learn to love how you move... HOWEVER you move. It is where you can unleash what you were taught to hold inside, and where you can free your emotions- all of them within a safe space and a safe community. From freestyle classes, slow and sensual teachings, and member events, this is the place to fall back in love with yourself- and you deserve that. PS, Minx+Muse is still its own entity and is hosting a fully online membership that you can check that out as well (:

This was the MOST FUN experience!! We went for a bachelorette party and had a blast. The woman who…read moreruns it is a literal star and made us feel so comfortable. It was such a fun way to work out and feel sexy. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to try something out of their comfort zone in a judgement-free environment. Also such a cool ambiance in the studio! 10/10

So my roleplay group rented this space last night for 8-10pm so we could do a fun class + demo, and…read moreit was phenomenal! I was really impressed by the facilities and layout of the place-- much larger on the inside than it looked on the outside. There was the large dance area with mirrored wall, plenty of folding chairs we could use, a large lobby with places to sit and wait for the previous class to finish up, even a quiet booth on the far side, and a little nook with a fridge and microwave. The fun-colored neon lighting was a nice visual touch, coupled with the ability to play music on the sound system really set the mood! The owner was very helpful about making us feel welcome, getting us set up, and letting us know where everything was and how to use the facilities. The only two things that could have been better were the cramped parking lot with limited spaces, and the single occupant bathroom. It was a really nice bathroom, but there was only the one so it caused a wait to use it. Would definitely rent this space again!!

The website is awful. You sign up, it takes your payment information and has warnings about no-show…read morepolicies. I show up to my first class. No record of my registration for the class. I'm not offered to take the class. The girl at the desk says check your email. I check my email, and it says you have to link your account. So why does the website have you select a class, lead you to believe you're paying for it, and show you enrolled? Maddening. I was always so interested in taking a class but always thought the website was absurd. I now have to make sure money isn't taken out of my account, and I don't show as a no- show for a class I wasn't welcomed to join. I was so looking forward to a great dance experience. What a disappointment.

This place is AWSOME for anyone 6+!…read more Sky Candy has very diverse classes and is good for adults and children alike. I love all the different props you get to use and lessons you get to take. Very organized and always has someone to greet you and tell you where to go at the front desk. My fav thing to do is the silks. I've only been a few times, but have already learned a lot and love going!

Lydia literally cut me in line at the grocery store when I happened to bump into her there. I was…read moresecond in line with only a few items in hand waiting for the lady directly in front of me to finish checking out. When the lady got done, Lydia suddenly bursts, frantically, "I need to go ahead of of you- I'm in a hurry." as she cut in front and had already begun putting her items on the belt. I was just stunned to be honest and didn't know who she was until she cut up ahead and I saw her. It was none other than the lady that literally owed me a $200 refund for selling me a 10 class pass for pole lessons WHICH SHE NO LONGER OFFERED. How can you forcefully cut someone in line (Who does that?!) who you also have stolen money from? Insane and biggest coincidence ever. Then again, I see she's stolen money from many people, refusing to give a refund, so for her to bump into one of them isn't actually unlikely. Thankfully, my bank agreed with me that she was in the wrong and took my $200 back from her, returning it to me. Do not do business with this self-centered, RUDE, and greedy human.

Lydia was 10 minutes late and she did not even have the "class" set up when she arrived. This…read morebusiness felt like a scam. When a party of 8 girls showed up, there were only 3 silks and 5 people were to just stand around the corner while 3 people went one at a time. That's not how a group class works. We asked for a refund as this ended up being at a BASKETBALL COURT instead of a studio (as shown in pictures), we were not informed that we were going to be doing nothing for the majority of the class. We were told we do not have to pay the balance of the fee, but we did not get a refund of $150 even if we didn't take the class and was misinformed about the whole thing. Please go somewhere else.

Not sure why it's so hard to fix things. The cable machine has been broken well over 50 days. And counting. Also, the people who open the club on the weekends are consistently late. In fact, I'm writing this on the parking lot waiting for the gym to open - should have opened 10 minutes ago. A few weeks ago someone strolled in around 8:17 when it should have opened at 8. This started out so promising. What happened?

I cannot say enough good things about Fitcidence!…read more I started going over 2 years ago now (on a whim because I saw them on TikTok and I thought "this is the kind of fun person I want to be"). I was TERRIFIED to go to my first class, as I was not a gym-goer and my running punchline was that I "didn't know what the inside of a gym looked like." Getting started in the fitness community is overwhelming and so many gyms are pretentious and require you to know a lot about fitness before you go! Luckily for me as a first-timer to a workout class, that is not at all how fitcidence is. I was greeted kindly, everything was explained to me, the attendees and instructors were equally kind and modifications were offered. Cut to two years later and now I workout 4-5x per week and am a founding member of the new space at Fitcidence! I have made some of my best friends in Austin here and will always continue to go to their classes. I am so much more confident (in the gym and in general) and feel so much healthier. I really need to do cardio because I have high cholesterol and cardio is one of the best things for it and fitcidence is the only place I've been where cardio is FUN! If you're hesitating, just do it. You'll be happy you did!
