Hey pole kitty. I am on my blackberry so I can’t post a direct link without closing this window but there is a thread in this column about studios and legalities etc. It has tons of useful info.
Look for the thread titled Studio Owners right here in "Everything else pole related" and you will find the one I refer too.
Hope that helps hun.Huge hugs and best of luck.

The PFA is working on a reference for pole dance certificaiton programs but in the mean time if you google pole dance instructor certification you will find many available…research what they offer and ask them questions.
A good instructor certification will tell you how to open a studio and the business aspects as well as how to teach.

Thank you Charley!
The best thing I can recommend is just to read and interview your potential certifications. The more you read the more you’ll learn about what’s available.
Don’t choose something that seems too easy to be any good. Tougher or more rigid is better. Go with someone with a good reputation…so ask around. See what just feels right to you when you talk to them.
As a side note: I ran into someone recently who claimed that they were certified by me and they were not! I’m still dealing with this as they claimed they paid and were certified by someone on the east coast who came to a local fitness studio and offered a workshop then awarded MY certification. Complete with my logo and everything! VERY FRUSTRATING to find that this has happened!

Thanks for linking for me Veena! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
As for the other studio, she has removed my instructor certification logo but we are still trying to track down the women who certified her. She states she paid $400 to this person.
It’s amazing that someone would think that they can get away with this and not be found out! The pole world is too connected to be able to get away with something and not run into someone else who knows better.

Thank you for the link!!
I am off to check it out………..
