Today SkyDance Pole Fitness turns 6! 💕
Although we don’t have a big birthday party planned for the town to come and celebrate with us, it is still a BIG day to celebrate for our community.
It’s no secret that we haven’t always been met with open arms. We’ve had doors closed in our faces and judgements that should belong in the past (like come ON, it’s 2026 and we are still having these conversations?!) Being a pole fitness studio in a small town means fighting the good fight is part of the day to day. 🫠
Our studio community is a movement…at times it feels like pole dancing is just reason for us to gather or a tool, and that our mission far exceeds a dance studio. We have been reflecting on this a lot in the past weeks, our “why” or purpose & by all logic, the rejections should have won by now. The reality is that we are still here because we are your neighbors. Look past the judgement and you’ll see the backbone of Grants Pass. 👏🏼 Our studio is filled with women who are nurses, business owners, veterans, veterinarians, mothers, corporate professionals, ect.. We are people who give everything to our community all day, and choose this one hour to give back to ourselves. & when a door is slammed in our face, there are ten of us here ready to pick each other up & walk forward together.
We have always tried to focus on the positive and not highlight the hurdles we deal with. For today we want to say, to those who still choose judgment over understanding, we encourage you to reflect on why someone else’s joy and strength feels like a threat to you. & Know that your opinions do not overrule the life changing experiences happening within our space.
Of course to all of our students and members, your courage to be yourselves is exactly why we are still here today, so THANK YOU for keeping this community alive and thriving. SkyDance is nothing without its community.
We are so thrilled to be celebrating our 6th year of offering art, fitness and culture through pole dancing to Grants Pass. We are excited to be going into our 7th with a clean slate. ☀️🌻
