Pole Spin Secrets, Birmingham

Pole Spin Secrets owner Darcel began teaching the art of pole dancing out of her apartment in 2009. Once she realized the high demand for this sensual body-toning workout, she expanded her enterprise into a studio. Here she helms a range of classes, which she believes teach women more than just physical movements, but tap into innate reserves of confidence and empowering energy. Whether she is demonstrating upside-down inversions, hip-popping choreography, or aerobic boot-camp exercises, Darcel creates a judgment-free zone. She and her team of instructors also host private pole-lesson parties for any occasion, from bachelorette outings to top-secret congressional summits.
