Instructor Training Program

The Instructor Training Program consists of classroom-based and practical instruction in the fundamental concepts of pole fitness. Classroom-based instruction encompasses basic anatomy, terminology, safety, injury prevention, and class design. Practical instruction includes technical execution, identification of healthy movement patterns, move modifications and variations, small-group teach-backs, individual and group demonstrations, effective cueing, and corrective action.

The Spring 2025 Instructor Training Program is a 15-hour program designed to build foundational skills in pole fitness instruction. Tuition is $399. For those looking to advance toward an instructor role, an optional 15-hour module is available, focusing on skill refinement and assessments to further develop expertise.

To encourage ongoing training and program engagement, program participants will receive discounts on Miss Pole offerings and merchandise.

If you have an interest in becoming a Miss Pole Instructor and have met all of the program completion requirements, you may be eligible to attend post-program assessments. There is a nominal $35 registration fee for each assessment; program tuition does not include assessment fees. The assessment process consists of several day-long sessions spread over two weekends.
