The why behind the studio

After moving to Ayrshire and discovering there wasn’t a place that combined health, fitness, wellness under one roof with a holistic approach, an idea was born.

Wanting to create a space that wasn’t just a gym, or just a yoga studio but that encompassed a variety of different classes, therapies, treatments and ceremonies.

Also having the desire for more depth of connection and bringing that experience to other people in a safe and welcoming space.

About us

At The Wellness Studio we host pole dancing classes, sound healing, free movement classes, different styles of yoga and lots of different workshops from painting to sensual lap dance…

Watch this space for all the juicy things that’s coming to the studio.

Frequently asked questions

It's my first time to pole dancing, what should I wear?

Wear clothing that is form fitting, such as shorts, vests, crop tops, etc., that keep your arms and legs exposed for gripping the pole. You can go barefoot or wear socks, both are fine, and whatever works for you. You don’t need heels for our fundamental pole classes, but you may want them for the choreo/flow style classes. 

Please read each class description when booking to find out what is best for each class. Knee pads are recommended for most classes to protect your knees and provides more comfort when doing any sort of floorwork.

What should I do to prepare for my first pole class?

Please don't wear body moisturiser/oils for at least 24 hours before your class. As this will make the pole too slippy to be able to use.

Earrings, belly button piercings, facial piercings and necklaces are all fine. Please remember to bring a bottle of water.
