About the school

San Francisco Pole and Dance occupies a SoMa space on 8th Street and bills itself as the city's largest pole, aerial, and dance studio. The studio is led by Amy Bond — a practicing lawyer who has been pole dancing for over five years and took over the studio after a name change from Studio Botan. Programming covers pole dance, pole tricks, heels choreography, aerial silks, aerial lyra, active flexibility, and handstands across beginner through advanced levels. The community values progression, play, sex-positive feminism, and respect.
