     * PPF believes that Pilates classes should only be taught by professional Pilates instructors.
     * All pole tricks are taught for 3 levels beginning, Intermediate, and advanced.

     * PPF will never hold you back, naturally talented dancers will continue to be challenged.
     * PPF teaches you all the components of a pole dance routine.
     * You can definitely use what you learn and many of our students have been seen at amateur nights in strip clubs, and in bars in Ensenada after a few classes.
     * PPF classes are structured, pre-choreographed and ready to teach/broken down for easy learning.
     * PPF teaches a new creative routine every class

3. How long is the actual pole dancing part of the class?
     * The pole dancing part of the class should be the majority of the time
     * Pole dancing should take place after a minimal warm-up
     * Class should include a short cool down

PPF Answer:
     * Pole Dancing is 95% of our classes
     * We always include an appropriate warm-up
     * We always include a stretch and cool down at the end of class

PPF Answer:
     * Our current facility has 7 poles
     * 6 students per class
     * 6 student poles and 1 instructor pole

5. What is the setup of the facility?
     * Do you have mirrors, although you might feel sexy, do you look sexy
     * What kind of poles do you use and are they safe
     * What kind of floor will you be dancing on, concrete or tile is not safe
     * Are you offered shoes for your first class

PPF Answer:
     * Our studio is equipped with mirrors
     * You need to know what you look like in addition to what you feel like
     * We use both Pure Platinum, Lil Mynx, X- Pole and  Pole Danzer portable stripper poles.
     * We offers shoes in limited availability
       (Note: you will want to purchase shoes after your first couple of classes)

6. Are the classes taught in a series or are drop in style classes also offered?
     * Classes taught in a series are a much greater time and financial commitment
     * Classes taught in a series do not afford you the flexibility of drop in style classes
     * Will you still effectively learn in a drop in style class

PPF Answer:
    * We offer both kinds of classes, but our drop in style classes are more popular
     * We do repeat movements from one class to another to ensure that you learn as effectively in our drop in style classes that you would in a series

 

7. How expensive is the program and how does it compare to other programs?
     * What is your overall financial commitment
     * Do you have to pay for an entire series, or can you pay per class
     * Is their a discount for paying for more classes upfront
     * Are you paying more than $25 for a class, and are you getting for that investment
     * What are your goals
             • goal = physical fitness
               (Note: personal training is less expensive than many pole dancing programs and more physically beneficial)
             • goal = learning to dance on a pole at parties or at a bar
               (Note: how much should that cost you)
             • goal = look and feel sexier
               (Note: it is imperative that you see what you look like, there is nothing more embarrassing then when you 
               see yourself for the first time on the pole and realize that you look ridiculous)

PPF Answer:
     * You can take class from us for as little as $15 per class
     * If you want to pay per class it is $25
       (Note: Many programs are about $50 per class)
     * You can purchase a punchcard or pay by the class
     * PPF offers the only monthly unlimited program. Wherein our customers pay for a monthly membership.
     * PPF offers a significant discount for purchasing classes in bulk.
     * At PPF, none of our classes exceed a $25 threshold
       (Note: PPF does not believe in taking advantage of people, high quality with low prices)
     * Does your financial commitment match your goals.
           • goal = physical fitness
           (Note: Personal Trainers cost $55 an hour & you will get more physical benefit from it)
           • goal = learning to dance on a pole at parties or a bar
           (Note: Try a less expensive program if you do not know if you are going to stick with it)
           • goal = look and feel sexier
           (Note: Make sure you don't fall for smoke and mirrors. In order to feel better you have to feel special and if you are paying a lot of money and are one of 10 girls on 2 poles then we don't think you are going to feel very special)
