So. You're thinking about pole dancing.
What a great idea 😏
Altitude Redwood is a pole dancing studio in Ōtautahi, just up from Papanui. Pole is what we do (and we do it really well).
Our classes are intentionally small, so your instructors know exactly where you're at and celebrate every little win. The first time you hold yourself up. The spin that finally clicks. Showing up on a day when showing up was the achievement.
We care deeply about people and we're passionate about pole. Whether you're here for an hour that's yours each week or you're chasing the competition stage, we'll meet you where you're at and help you keep growing.
You'll spend time around a wonderfully varied bunch of humans. Before long, you'll be showing up because you want to be there. And if life gets in the way and you go quiet, we'll notice and check in.
Redwood is proudly owner-operated by Michelle, who built the studio around two simple ideas: awesome instructors and genuine care for every person who walks through the door.

What to expect.
Most people walk into their first class feeling a bit nervous. That's normal. Within a few minutes, you'll realise everyone else remembers what their first class felt like too.
Our beginner classes are built for beginners. We break everything down, offer options for different bodies and celebrate every "I didn't think I could do that" moment.
Every class follows the same format: warm-up, skills, flow, then cool-down. The moves change each week, but you'll always know what kind of class you're walking into.
Whether you're here for a challenge, a new hobby or simply an hour where nobody needs anything from you, you're welcome here.
We didn't write these... but our members did.
What's on our Timetable.
Classes built to take you somewhere.
Altitude Redwood runs a full timetable of pole classes from Level 1 (beginner) through to Level 5 (advanced). Wherever you start, there's somewhere to go.
Beyond the levels, there's a whole bunch of ways to move. Spin. Flow. Combos. Stretch. Strength. Heels. Try everything, keep what you love and build a timetable that's just for you.
A few things people usually wonder about.
Will I fit in?
Yes. The community at Altitude is actually the thing people talk about most. It tends to make even the most nervous first-timers feel at home pretty fast. It's our best flex.
What if I struggle in class?
Finding your feet with something new is just part of the process - and honestly, it's where a lot of the fun lives. Every class is full of people all figuring it out together.
Do I need to be fit or strong to start?
Nope. Level 1 is designed for people starting from scratch - no experience, no upper body strength required. That stuff comes with the classes.
Go on, give it a go 😏
You'll never know till you know...
Here's how you can give classes a go at Altitude Redwood, no strings attached.

What comes after a Starter Pass?
That would be one of our memberships.
At some point pole stops being something you're testing out and starts being something you just... do.
Classes get a permanent slot in your week. You might start scheduling the rest of your life around them (which is actually just making yourself a priority, ya know?)
That's what our memberships are for. Regular classes to keep chasing those wins.
While you're here, this is what else we get up to.
