Pole Dancing Classes in Denver Improve Body Confidence at TranZenDance® Studio, Newly Opened by Former NYC Joffrey Ballet Dancer

This year, Dr. Lori Huett, behavioral health specialist and former professional NY ballet dancer, brings pole dancing to Denver, direct from Los Angeles. The Mile High City's first professional level studio TranZenDance® offers pole dancing that not only strengthens and lengthens but also improves body confidence. In addition to classes for beginning to advanced pole dancing, TranZenDance® Studio offers a dancer's conditioning workout, group classes, private instruction, choreography workshops, team performance, teacher training, and men's classes.

(PRWEB) February 13, 2008 -- Dr. Lori Huett, behavioral health specialist and former professional NY ballet dancer, announces the grand opening of Denver's first professional-level pole dancing studio, TranZenDance®. Direct from Los Angeles, pole dancing incorporates and transcends all forms, like ballet, jazz, modern, and ballroom, while it allows for the creative self-expression that is lost with strict adherence to any one framework. And possibly of greatest benefit to participants, these pole dancing classes encourage a transcending of body and self image issues that Dr. Huett believes "hold women back from living fully and proudly in their bodies."

Most pole dancing workouts emphasize the physical fitness aspects of the dance. While this workout strengthens, lengthens, and tones, it also appears to be just what the doctor suggests for improving self confidence and body image. This aspect of pole dance lessons is taken seriously at TranZenDance® Studio, which has been described as a "modern yogic sanctuary with poles." There are no mirrors for self-critique, and the soft, dim lighting allows participants to see only their silhouettes. Classes are private without observation, which sets the scene for a safe experience of going within one's body and self for the entire duration of a two-hour class.

In my 10+ years of counseling and rendering traditional psychotherapies, I had yet to observe changes of this magnitude that occur in the pole dance lessons that I teach

"In my 10+ years of counseling and rendering traditional psychotherapies, I had yet to observe changes of this magnitude that occur in the pole dance lessons that I teach," states owner and lead instructor Dr. Lori Huett. She believes, "this makes sense, given that so many levels of experience are addressed simultaneously: cellular, physiological, emotional, intellectual, somatic, and relational."

At TranZenDance® Studio, women of all shapes, ages, and fitness levels remark on how this exercise initiates a profound alteration in how they experience and view their bodies. "I have taught women in their forties who commonly report feeling better about their appearances than when they were in their early twenties. I know this modality is working when a woman leaves class walking taller and prouder, no longer apologizing for her larger, more womanly curves," reports Dr. Lori Huett.

In addition to professionally instructed pole dance lessons, TranZenDance® Studio provides group classes, personalized conditioning programs, a dancer's conditioning workout (integrative Pilates, yoga, agonist-antagonist flexibility training, and calisthenics), choreography workshops, teacher training, team performance workshops, and men's classes.
