When the first provincial COVID-19 lockdown occurred in spring 2020, we took it upon ourselves to motivate and encourage our students through an online community of pole, floor, and stretch classes. "Poledemic" was born as a tongue-in-cheek initiative with the intent of keeping our bodies and spirits healthy through the social and physical isolation of lockdown. "Poledemic" has been resurrected with each subsequent shutdown and while never intended to become a long-term initiative following the physical opening of Empower, the success of online classes with out-of-town students and those stuck at home has prompted us to keep livestreamed and recorded classes running.

The online Poledemic pass can be used for any online-available classes and can be purchased in conjunction with standard Empower passes. These online options are great for when the class fills up before you can register (bummer), for when you are travelling or unable to make it to in-person classes (hey, sometimes leaving the house is just Too Much, we get it), or if you are under the weather and staying close to home (thanks for keeping us safe!).
