The Vertitude

Valley girls looking to spice up their workout should strap on a skin-tight ensemble and make a B-line to this Canoga Park fitness studio. Owned and operated by 2013's US National Pole Dance Champion (in addition to a slew of other saucy titles), The Vertitude offers an exotic pu pu platter of classes, from pole dancing, burlesque and Buti Yoga to aerial hoop and aerial tissu (we have no idea what that is). Each workshop reflects the studio's MO and namesake of "vertical altitude," inspiring strong, confident movement, whether you're scaling a stainless steel pole or dangling from silk ribbons. The Vertitude features a staff of highly decorated and wildly bendy instructors, who make use of the space's seven 14-foot spinning and stationary poles. The studio welcomes both beginners and advanced students. Cruise their rotating schedule of classes to find your match.
