Pole Fitness

Hi, we're the University of Derby Pole Fitness Club aka The Treefrogs :) We run weekly training sessions on Tuesdays at Kirtley Hall at Keddleston Road Campus. The times for these are 6-7pm and another at 7-8pm. Both are mixed ability for the first few weeks whilst we introduce our freshers. In these sessions, you learn so many amazing moves no matter your age,gender,shape,size or ability. We welcome all!

As well as this, we have training sessions on Thursdays 5-6pm and 6-7pm that involve open sessions; dance workshops for various styles; mindful yoga sessions; strength and conditioning and even specific rehearsals for comps/shows when the time comes. We love to give our members opportunities to perform non-competitively or compete. Not to mention we host our own inter-university competition, Chrome Royale.

 

 We also host and attend a wide variety of social events such as fundraisers for our club, charities, themed socials and talent shows to show off all you accomplish.

To access all the sessions and socials, you will need both the Union Pass (£20) and our £45 Standard Club Membership.
