Frequently Asked Questions
XPERT is a professional training and a continuing education course, not a certification. Participants are not “certified” to teach pole fitness after completion of the training, nor do they receive a diploma. Rather, participants receive a certificate of completion indicating that they have successfully completed the 16-hour course and passed the written and practical exam portions of the training. As with any mode of fitness, continuing education is encouraged. Ongoing education will enhance pole fitness teaching skills and techniques.
XPERT is a comprehensive training that covers anatomy, movement, teaching techniques as well as beginning and intermediate pole moves. The training places a special emphasis on pole safety and spotting techniques, as well as safe and effective class design. The first day of the training will be split between lecture and practical. The second day will involve mostly practical and will end with the written and practical exam.
We are committed to helping you succeed. We provide three options for re-testing.
1. Resubmit your practical assessment via video for no charge.
2. Resubmit your written assessment via an online testing portal for no charge.

At the start of the training, you will receive a written manual that is yours to keep. The Master Trainer thoroughly explains each topic in depth and is committed to preparing each trainee for the written and practical exam on Day 2.
The training is Level 1 & 2: Beginner and Intermediate. It’s recommended that the registrant have a basic knowledge of anatomy, body alignment, and simple strength training exercises and that he/she have practiced or instructed pole for a minimum of 6 months. XPERT is the ideal course for both new and seasoned pole fitness instructors-enhancing teaching skills and expanding pole fitness knowledge. Participants do not need to have prior experience as a fitness instructor. Prior experience in one or more of the following areas is helpful: dance, gymnastics, yoga or pilates.
We recommend that you refrain from wearing lotion or oil on the days of the training and wear shorts and a tank top otherwise you may find it difficult to grip the pole. Bring a change of clothes and please be aware that temperatures vary in the studio environment so you will need to dress accordingly.
There will be a one hour lunch break each day. Do bring snacks and water with you to the training to hold you over should you need something while the training is taking place.
We do not issue refunds and the monies collected may not be transferred or substituted for another service. If for any reason you are unable to attend the training which you registered and paid for, you must send an email to registration@xpertpolefitness.com to reschedule to attend an alternate training at a later date.
