After several years of practicing pole at another location, I decided to try this studio after hearing great things about it. Been going here for over a year and itβs been amazing. Kirstie is my usual instructor, but Iβve also enjoyed classes with Karen and a few others. You do have to share poles, which I wasnβt used to at first, but it ends up working out because you can take breaks and watch others, which helps when youβre a visual learner. The prices are very affordable and thereβs some serious talent here.

I went yesterday for a private party, small class thing. It was very fun! I'm not graceful by all means but I really enjoyed it. The instructor was peppy and energetic which made the experience a blast! I highly recommend this place!

Not a very welcoming place, especially if you're new. For an accelerated class, it was very slow and not at all what I'd hoped for. Spend the tuition on your own pole and learn from Youtube- you'll save yourself time and gas money (especially if you're not in StL), and you don't have to feel anxious and uncomfortable in a place with weird vibes, dark lighting, and people whose names you don't even know. And you'll get more than 15 min on the pole for a 120 minute class. Couldn't even tell you what my instructor's name was. I left at the end in tears. Oh, and I never got a reply when I, as per verbal instruction by the course instructor, emailed for information about dropping the course. It feels very much like those who don't have a good experience are ignored.
All in all, it was a complete letdown and I'm a bit heartbroken as I'd always heard how great the studio is. :c

Took my first intro class today, and it was fantastic. The instructor was great and walked through the moves step by step. It was a fun experience and a great workout! Can't wait to go back.

I personally did not like it, not sure if it was the instructor or what. The vibes were not good, lousy music selection. Especially if your a beginner, it went to fast. We had to learn this whole routine, watched it once and it was like " now you do it". I think the instructor was tired, trying to just get though it. Let me put it this way, I live 3hrs away! I wouldn't drive again for that class. You will have to share poles and that is no fun, your missing out from your group experience. Just standing there watching.
Sorry but I'm just being honest.

I've done a few drop in classes and every instructor is great. They all are so encouraging without any shaming on what you can't do. I'm excited to take more classes here.

The teachers are fine, but they double book the class space,<8 students 4 poles> so just know you are spending 20 bucks to get about 20 mins of practice total cause you have to share the pole and its super awkward

Literally the best place in the world. The community here is so supportive and accepting. Iβve been going for about 2 years now and the amount of stuff I know now practicing about twice a week is incredible 15million/10

Had a private pole dancing class for a bachelorette party and it was a great decision. Our instructors were so great. They were funny, detailed and very helpful. They made sure the class had a great flow and encouraged everyone in such a kind way. Our group did not have one complaint about the class and had a blast. Highly recommended. Thank you for helping make the day so fun!

I am very uncoordinated and non-athletic. I felt really comfortable walking into this studio - the instructors and students made me feel really welcomed and not self conscious.

I've been a member of this studio for almost a year now and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself.
I've been to a lot of pole studios but this one really stands out because of it's inclusion, the care everyone has for each other, the pure talent from the instructors, and the amazing friends you make!
I love my pole family here and am so grateful for what Michelle is doing.

I have attended Michelle Mynx Academy for over 5+ years. My first instructor was Tunde who teaches the Sunday Drop-in. She encouraged me, was patient, and started me off with a solid base before moving up another level. I moved up into a Beginners 2/3 members class with Michelle Mynx herself. Michelle is also kind, encouraging, and patient. I can say that for every instructor here. Theyβve all been trained well and are big on proper progression while keeping the dance and creativity of Pole Dancing. Many of the students and instructors here have performed in small to big shows and have placed in national competitions. This studio is incredible and successful because of the people and the amazing owner who truly love the art of pole dancing.

I would definitely recommend taking classes at this facility. Michelle is a great teacher, as is the entire staff. They are all completely supportive of all sizes and skill levels. They offer various classes, from beginner, to intermediate, to advanced. They offer different kind of classes too, some classes are more geared to sexy moves, some are less so, so depending on your own comfort level, you will definitely be able to find something in your comfort zone.

I truly love this place. I truly think of this as a second home, because I am always there. Michelle is a happy, bright light and is so encouraging, fun, and warm. She and the other instructors always provide modification for moves depending on a person's skill level. They offer a variety of classes for every skill level. I highly recommend this studio.

Mynx Academy is a wonderful pole arts studio. The instructors are patient, the other students are supportive, and itβs a wonderfully joyful place! No other exercise has made me fall in love with cardio, and Iβve tried a lot of other fitness activities. Highly recommended!

Mynx Academy may be my favorite place in all of St. Louis! Michelle has curated a studio that is welcoming to absolutely everyone, regardless of gender, age, race, or body type. The instructors are all incredible, and they will guide you whether you are looking to learn crazy acrobatics or just have fun and dance (or both!) I cannot recommend this studio highly enough.

Amazingly welcoming space! I came in with no experience whatsoever and have had the most fun - Kirstie, Regina & Steele have been great instructors and the whole studio is generally a great place to be! No judgement on your ability (or lack-thereof!) and a super fun way to exercise - so glad I found this place and am learning so much while meeting awesome people :)

STL is beyond lucky to have Michelle Mynx. As a teacher, she's supportive of all ages, shapes, sizes, and abilities. Her shows have an incredible variety of styles and skill level, and she's able to bring some of the top people in the industry to STL for workshops.
