ABOUT The Pole Room
Starting with just 2 poles in her parents garage, Jasmine Zapka’s passion has grown The Pole Room into a space that welcomes dancers and fitness enthusiasts of all shapes, sizes, genders, backgrounds and abilities.
Whether you are new to the world of pole or an experienced dancer looking to polish your skills in a safe learning environment, we have classes that will inspire you! Our passion is taking beginners from their first spin around the pole and guiding them on their journey towards pole dance & aerial fitness mastery.
A PLACE TO CALL 'HOME'
The Pole Room started with a love for pole dancing, and quickly grew into a strong community that promotes self-love and well-being. With 4 locations in Melbourne, Australia, The Pole Room is a place where pole enthusiasts meet, grow and share their passions for dance and fitness in a body-positive environment. In essence, it’s a place where anybody can feel safe and complete as they are.
We focus on learning new tricks, combinations and routines. All of our pole, lyra and aerial silk classes are about learning a fun new skill in a supportive and non-judgemental environment. We pride ourselves on accomodating a diverse range of students of all ages, genders and backgrounds. Pole is so much more than just a workout and we invite you to trial a class and find out why pole & aerial fitness has become a global phenomenon!

Jasmine Zapka
After my first pole class I was hooked!
“Instead of counting calories, I counted the number of tricks and combinations I could perform. You couldn’t keep me out of the studio, and when I wasn’t in class, I was practicing every possible moment. I never knew my body could transform so quickly. I built muscle, grew stronger, and lost body fat. Instead of boring workouts at the gym, I was having fun and it showed.
That was 10 years ago. Today I’m excited to share this journey with you!”
