Kathleen is amazing! She created an atmosphere that felt comfortable for all experience levels and body types. The class challenged me but was so much fun! She was great at giving little tips that made the movements easier and more smooth. I left feeling strong and sexy. I love her classes and can’t wait to take another.

We did a private party class for a group of 14 women during a bachelorette weekend. Everyone had a blast. Ann, our instructor, was great at helping us learn some introductory movements and allowing our group to have fun too! I would highly recommend!

I had a fantastic and fun time at the Pole Fitness class. We all were a little shy at first, but Kathleen's excellent instruction taught us very basic choreography that we practiced and then put into a final routine- all in one hour! I want to go back for more classes as this was so much fun. Thank you for such an eye-opening (helped me get rid of some inhibitions) experience.

I've taken a 6 week pole class, a 4 week aerial silks class, and various drop in classes at RAAA. I honestly can't get enough. The instructors are so kind and so caring. I feel so confident in these classes and it's such an amazing feeling to be free to dance and have a supportive community around you. I can't recommend Rise Above enough. Take a class, you won't regret it!

Did an hour long intro pole dancing class with a group of Mom friends and we had a blast! The instructor was extremely energetic and fun. Nice workout both from the routine and the laughs!!

Had a wonderful experience doing the pole dancing and chair work class. The instructor was easy to follow and the atmosphere was so fun! I can't wait to try it again and maybe even do some of the longer session classes.
