Book personalised one to one coaching sessions with the afterglow team.
Whatever your goals, we are here to help you reach them. Whether your looking to build strength, flexibility, master your inverts or calm your nervous system, we will support you each step of the way.
Choose from one-off sessions, a bundle of 4 (save ££), or dive straight in with our 3 month StripFit programme.
StripFit is our signature programme to support fitness and health goals long-term. We've developed this over the last 3 years of teaching, and more importantly, listening to our students. And while we LOVE pole dance, we know from experience that it takes more than this to keep our bodies, minds and souls strong and healthy.
We want to make it as easy as possible to build habits that support us not just today and tomorrow, but long-term. Every day, somewhere we see a quick fix for [insert problem], and we've tried a good few of them, remember the Dukan Diet anyone??? The reality is that when we've seen actual lasting results for our ourselves, and our students, it's from consistency, and time.
This isn't sexy, or a quick fix. It can feel uncomfortable and sometimes even disheartening. This is where our mindset, energy management and mental wellbeing comes in - remembering how to be patient, disciplined and compassionate with yourself.

Thousands of years ago yogis weren't interested in mastering their splits or perfecting their backbends, the aim of yoga was (and is) Samadhi - bliss.
Academic research tells us these yogis lived in a time when they questioned what leaders in society were doing and were searching for a way to encourage people to be kinder to each other (sound familiar!). For thousands of years there were very few poses and the idea was to expel energy from the body to sit comfortably in meditation for extended periods.
It's only in the last 150 years that the physical practice of yoga as we know it today evolved - vinyasa, dynamic flow, yin, restorative and group classes. What were they doing before that? Studying philosophy, mastering themselves through svadhyaya (self-study) and usually learning one to one from a guru.
While we don't presume to call ourselves gurus, but we are passionate about coaching and guiding students through inner transformation using yoga philosophy. Working with chakra, klesha, gunas, koshas, and more to understand ourselves at a deeper level.
Why did I overreact to that email?
Why am I so anxious/depressed?
Why is this noise is too much!
Why do I feel disconnected from my body?
Why won't my mind stop racing?

Sometimes we don't need to intellectually understand or know a reason why - movement and stillness can help us to process and release emotions and tension stored in the body by regulating the nervous system - hacking the mind via the body.
At afterglow, we offer small group and one to one sessions, tailoring teaching to who is in the room and work directly with what's showing up on any given day.
