Jason is an excellent teacher and his dedication to his students is obvious. The supportive community within the dojo is a testament to all the hard work Jason and his colleagues put in all year round. Would highly recommend if you want to learn new skills and get fit in the process! ☺️ My only regret is I didn’t discover WKMKA sooner!”

“I have had the best time at pole twisters! I started with a taster class at the end of 2023 and loved it so much I signed up to level 1 classes as my New Year’s resolution. My first class I was quite shy, wearing a baggy tshirt and not very confident. Fast forward a few months I have a confidence and positivity I never knew I had strutting around in a miniskirt and 6inch heels. My strength has increased and most importantly I am having the most fun. I can’t thank my instructor David enough for helping me grow and learn to love myself. Pole has been more than a way to get fit and has become the most positive and supportive environment ever.”

“"Our meal at Salkaara was absolutely fantastic! We started with the Chicken 65—spicy, crispy, and full of flavor—and the Peanut Masala , which was a deliciously unique and crunchy treat. For mains, the Mangalan Chicken Curry was rich, aromatic, and perfectly paired with soft garlic nan and basmati rice which we ordered separate . We ended our meal on a sweet note with the creamy Crème Brûlée and classic Vanilla Ice Cream. The service was attentive and friendly, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. A great place for authentic South Indian flavors with a modern twist—highly recommend!"”

“Lovely atmosphere, great people. Something the Cardiff community should treasure and enjoy. Not many places these days actually focus on people’s Mind,Body & Soul as Ardours slogan says. It’s not just the venue that makes this place but the people and those that are drawn into the place that make this feel like a big part of Cardiff tucked away just outside of the busy and hectic town centre. Teachers are all great and welcoming with very understanding people who know if you are either a beginner or veteran of their skills and accommodating to my own level.”

“Unfortunately, I haven't been in around a year due to lack of time but when I get the chance I will absolutely go back. Incredible instructors, they're always so focused on progression over time. I always felt so confident and attractive every session I had. I'd absolutely recommend Personal Pole to anyone wanting to start pole dancing ❤️”
