Despite his admirable and well-intentioned outlook, I couldn't wait to dance, swing, and work my way around that pole! I originally learned about Vertical Tease Durham on Groupon, my curiosity roused I went to their website and decided to try the Intro to Pole but with the Pay as you go Rate for $10 a session in the 11AM Saturday morning slot. I don't know how strippers do it - working that pole is hard work, and not to mention super fun! Clad in yoga pants, my friend and I giggled like two mischievous school girls, I think there was even a "weeee" squeal after our first Firemans swing. Besides being a ton of fun, this pole dancing class was a pretty good workout as told by my sore delts, lats, and obliques the next day. I can't wait to work that pole again! I'm going to rent out the studio for a private party for one of my girlfriends birthday! Weeeee! Sorry Chris Rock. PS - Vertical Tease is a little hard to find, GPS took us over by Chapel Hill so we ended up calling and getting directions from the receptionist. There's a service road and it's upstairs.

Having now been to two classes, I can say that pole dancing is definitely their forte. Kendra, the manager (and possibly owner), is fun and enthusiastic. Her constant encouragement was helpful for newbies like myself. "It doesn't matter how hard you fall as long as you get up sexy," may be my new motto. The instruction was great, and the workout was pretty good too (although I may be investing in kneepads). Five dollar Fridays rotate the style of lesson, giving you a chance to try some new things without spending a lot of money. After such a great lesson with Kendra, however, I was disappointed by the belly dancing class I took. The instructor seemed inexperienced, saying things like, "do the... what's it called..." and "let me see if I remember the next step." I've had better workouts practicing on my own, and since I didn't get a lot of feedback from the instructor on my technique, I'm inclined to keep it that way. Over all, I encourage everyone to check out the pole dancing classes, but if you're interested in another style of work out, maybe look somewhere else. PS. Give yourself plenty of time to get there; it's hard to find (on a frontage road to 15-501 and over Pomegranate Kitchen).

It is clean, the atmosphere is friendly, my girls come home with smiles, and yet I see them being challenged. Though my girls were at different levels with their motor skills they both advanced because their coaches teach to each student in the class. When class sizes increased they added another coach so the ratio remained low. Even after a long day of school they are excited to go, and I and so happy to have found this gym.

There is a gravel parking area with shade, and a trail that leads to an abandoned dirt road that was once used to race cars. Some linkages exist with other parks and I ended up taking a detour to the nearby creek. There were no bridges across the creek (a map promised that one was planned) and no bathroom facilities that I was able to locate. The vibe is interesting, with some preserved and apparently reconstructed buildings around an area that once held spectators. A few historic vehicles are sitting there as well. As a walking or running area, the road itself is excellent and you could certainly just do laps if you want to exercise. Trying to picture the place as a working NASCAR arena in the 1950's is a leap of imagination, but for those with the openness to try, an interesting exercise.
