Welcome to Otanko, Aalto University’s vibrant pole dancing association where strength, grace, and self-expression come together!
Location:
Join us at the Jämeräntaival 1 club room. Find the entrance on the building C side, just step inside, and let the adventure begin!
First-Timers Welcome!
Are you curious about pole dancing but unsure where to begin? Otanko invites first-timers to dip their toes (and maybe a spin or two) into the world of pole dancing without the need for prior commitment. No sign-ups required for your first class – just show up ready to explore!
For your first pole dancing, we recommend wearing comfortable shorts and sporty attire. Embrace the freedom of movement while feeling the connection with the pole. Don’t forget to bring a towel and a water bottle to stay refreshed throughout your session.
While we don’t have a separate changing room, feel free to change in the pole dancing room itself or use the bathroom facilities conveniently located in the next-door building.
