The teacher and other students all seem to be on a "let's have fun" vibe and it worked. I learned a lot in this class and was so relaxed during cool down, I almost fell asleep in the swing.

I live down the street and didn't even know it existed. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised and had a blast. It's the perfect place to host a birthday party or just go with a group of friends.

I worked out muscles I didn't know existed. When I'm in Chicago and in South Loop I will make sure I can take her class. She was great and her playlist was perfection!

Finally, the owner (Francesca) kept such amazing contact with us and was so helpful through the whole process, and was even willing to call me late at night to fix a billing issue. I definitely recommend taking your first class here and trying something out of your comfort zone! Great community :)

Just nearby is an outdoor patio with shades over the top so classes can be held out there when weather permits. On Saturday mornings, there is a class with a physical therapist. It isn't traditional yoga, it's PT informed stretching and it is awesome. Ali, the instructor, was so generous with his knowledge and the way that he shared it. At the end of class, everyone was just grinning and shaking their heads. He reached everyone in the room on their own terms. Which I think is the case for all of the instructors here, actually. I find is that every instructor has their own unique style, some teach you new breathing techniques, some help you focus more on the small but important techniques in each pose. I have really enjoyed the month of classes I have taken here. Still haven't been able to do the aerial one or the belly dancing, but I love that they are there for me when it works! Can't recommend this place enough!

Angela is AWESOME! She has such a unique way of connecting with all her students at one time that…read moreit feels like it's just you and her, even if there are others with your class. She is very professional and gives you the freedom to be as creative and sexy as you want. She doesn't make you feel pressured to be a certain way, so if you wanted to, you could be goofy, sexy, graceful, etc. How you interpret pole is exactly that, your interpretation. She's on time, organized, and really friendly. This isn't just a regular aerobics class. The moves you do are more suggestive and require more athletic ability than you think. It would be really nerve racking for anyone who's just starting out or not comfortable enough with themselves to just strut their stuff on the pole right away, but Angela helps ease that tension. She's got a really cute little studio in her living room with 5 poles. They are all perfectly spaced and she's got sexy lighting and mirrors in their too. Seriously, it's just this awesome girl room where you can just let your freak flag fly! I'll rave about Pole Velocity all day. Had my first class week and was feeling hesitant about how it would go, but Angela is great. She's got credibility, experience, and a nice little set up that makes you feel comfortable there. Plus, she's got these cute fluffy cats that chill out and watch you dance which is hilarious. Love the class, love the prices, love the environment. Great!!! UPDATE 5/30/2014 A year and a half later and I am still going here. Angela is wonderful. She is an excellent teacher and I have learned so much. I have my own pole now and I still take classes because I can always use a little instruction. Her aerial fit class is so much fun. She hosts little "open house" parties for her students so we can all hang out and dance, see each others progress. it's so much fun here! a nice little family.

I was an aerialist for five years, but I have been out of practice (and out of shape!) for the better part of the last three years, following the birth of my youngest. Because I have lost a great deal of strength, finding a studio and instructor who can scaffold instruction is important to me. Rise, and owner/instructor Carrie delivered. The aerial flow class is adaptable to all levels of strength and experience. Carrie breaks down poses and demonstrates to ensure all students understand the mechanics of each pose. It was easy to feel comfortable and confident, and to feel some muscle memory returning. I signed up for a membership and look forward to adding these classes to my fitness regimen. Check out the membership options. The rates are significantly lower than other studios! Check out the schedule, as well- there are plenty of classes throughout the week- Barre, yoga, pilates, and aerial.
