Yes! Raven Studios is an inclusive, safe space studio. We are accepting of all individuals.

The majority of our classes use apparatus shared between two students. Our open sessions are one person per apparatus.We work to keep pole & aerial arts as affordable as possible and to fairly compensate our fantastic instructor team and support staff; shared apparatus is a big part of that. We are proud to offer over 90 classes and open gym sessions every week in our large and beautifully equipped space at an accessible cost. We also know that sharing not only helps us pace our practice and helps us learn, but also fosters the friendships that are the heart of our wonderful community. We support each other and love to celebrate each other’s movement.

See Our Policies for information regarding late cancellation and no shows.

Please read through our Class Descriptions and Prerequisites to find a class that fits your skill level.

Transfer and visiting students can self-declare their level based on listed prerequisites.
