About the Studio
COVA Pole & Movement is the ONLY pole studio in Virginia Beach equipped with 13-foot poles, giving you the height you need to train for competitions and performances.
Our 2,500-square foot facility features two studios, 11 poles, 10-foot wall-to-wall mirrors, weekly Pole, Flex and Movement classes, and a boutique for all your pole needs.
With studios intentionally designed by National Pole Champion and Xpert Pole Trainer Shaina Cruea (who happens to be 6 feet tall!), our pole spaces are built for dancers of all heights, shapes and sizes to get a full experience during classes and training sessions. Our poles are on a PoleAway System, so they can be easily put away during non-pole classes, events and workshops.
Whether you’re looking for classes and community, a space to train privately, or a space to host your own workshop or event, COVA is the place for you!
