OPole. Fun. Inclusive. Sexy.

Our pole dance philosophy.

We provide pole fitness and dance to Oberlin College students and community.

Ready to start pole dance but feel like you’re not quite there in terms of strength, flexibility, experience, or confidence?

You’re actually at a perfect starting point! Your body is already fabulous, strong, and flexible – you’ve got it all. Pole dance isn’t just about moves; it’s a confidence booster, a strength builder, and a celebration of positive body image.

Join our amazing community, and let’s rock the pole together!

Attend our beginner pole class.

Led by the amazing Natalie, our beginner pole classes are great for those with no/little experience! We guide you through warm-ups, conditioning, beginner pole moves, and pole-perfect stretches. Shorts are the dress code, and don’t forget your water bottle! Everyone, regardless of experience level, is welcome.

Practice during our Open Pole Hours.

Come to the ultimate pole party during our Open Pole Hours on weeknights and weekend afternoons. Practice those awesome moves you learned in class, online, or simple have fun! Bring your friends, play music, and stay hydrated. Sign up at http://bit.ly/48HhBnn.

Perform in or attend our shows.

We host a spectacular show every semester, and our last one, an unprecedented collaboration between OCircus and OBurlesque, drew in a crowd of 300+ and featured 20 incredible performances, including sexy silks, straps, pole, trapeze, lyra, juggling, stripping, and acrobatics. Don’t miss out on the next epic show – be part of the magic!

Perform at the Heartbreak Hotel on April 5 & 6th.

“Pole dancing has taught me patience and resilience, it's built my confidence and shown me that with persistence there is nothing I cannot learn.”
