Description
Come and join the Scorpions! Pole fitness is a great way to tone up and get fit. Here at Winchester we don’t compete, however that doesn’t affect our team spirit. Our fun and friendly classes are open to everyone - guys that includes you! Not having done pole before or having no upper body strength should not stop you from giving it a go as there are classes for all! Beginner classes are available all the way through to advanced. Our lovely coaches Ash and Millie help us gain strength and learn new tricks on four professional poles.
We love going out as a social group to BOP, and on TOUR to Lloret de Mar.
We train Mondays and Wednesdays with the price of our classes being the cheapest in this area (£8 per 1hour lesson). As a society we charge per term rather than the full academic year – although we know you’ll want to stay for it all! There will be a chance for a free taster session at the beginning of the semester (link will be posted on our socials closer to the time)

Monday -
Beginner/ Intermediate - 2:00pm - 3:00pm

MEMBERSHIP T&Cs
Where an activity group (sports team/society/representational network) has a competitive element or other external factors that affect the number of participants, your membership may be subject to criteria other than joining the group via this website. If this results in your membership not being able to be accepted, you will be informed (with any relevant details) and your membership will be refunded.
Membership will not normally be refunded if you cease being a student, if you voluntarily end your membership, or if you are subject to disciplinary action that removes your membership status.
CODE OF CONDUCT
By joining this activity group you are confirming your compliance with Student Union policies and bye-laws, particularly as it pertains to conduct, personal safety and acceptable behaviour.
Initiations: At no point should you feel pressured to drink and get involved in what others are doing, for example to join in with drinking games or ‘challenges’, if you don’t want to. If you are part of an activity group it is completely your choice whether or not you attend a social event. Activity groups are prohibited from carrying out initiation ceremonies, or any initiation-type behaviour, either on or off campus. If you ever feel pressured to take part in social activities as part of an activity group, we would strongly encourage you to report it to us here: https://www.winchesterstudents.co.uk/report It is our upmost priority that you feel safe engaging in Union activity, and there is support available for you if you have experienced or witnessed anything that made you feel uncomfortable or concerned you.
