Explore, play, run wild!
When's the last time you could let go and just be you? No judgement, no expectations... 
At Catalyst you have the freedom to redefine what strong and sexy look (and more importantly feel) like for you. Have no idea what that may look like yet? Perfect! Most of us don't when we begin this journey. This is a place to explore and discover. Just show up and be you-the rest will follow. 
Pole Dance +  Sensual Movement

Welcome to Catalyst! We're a pole and embodied sensual movement studio in the West Town neighborhood of Chicago.
​Yes we teach pole tricks, but that's just the start. The focus is on connecting (or reconnecting) with yourself through pole and sensual movement. We believe movement is a catalyst (see what we did there?) for a deeper mind/body/soul/energetic connection.
 Absolutely no prior experience is needed! We meet you where you're at this very moment and give you the tools to let go, play, explore, and amaze yourself over and over again. Beginners are always welcome! In fact, we have a special series just for brand new pole dancers.

You're unique! Your pole journey will be too

Erotic Rebellion
Our classes are designed to encourage you to follow what authentically resonates with you. It's place to reclaim your sensuality just for you. Our sexual energy is a powerful tool for reconnection and growth. Taking it back for you and you first is a beautiful rebellion against everything we've been told we should or shouldn't be. All this magic happens in a fun supportive space where you'll be relentlessly encouraged every step of the way. Enjoy the process, celebrate all of your little wins along the way, and trust your journey.
