Along with preserving the history of fun and sensual movement which sets our pole studio aside from traditional fitness programs, we are committed to excellence in teaching. We continue to further our education on an on-going basis, and strive to continue bringing you the very best in Connecticut’s alternative fitness programs.
Our History
The Girl Spot LLC was formed by women for women. Judy Jovanelly, owner of The Girl Spot, wanted to work out and have fun. Having tried traditional gym memberships and group fitness classes for years, Judy was thrilled to discover the joy, and unparalleled challenge, of Pole Fitness! Judy, an ex-professional entertainment dancer, wife and mother, decided to kick her workouts up a notch and found Pole Fitness to be an exciting and fun way to tone her body and lose weight.
The only pitfall she found about these types of alternative fitness was that there weren’t many facilities in the area boasting bot a social atmosphere and a fitness regimen. Most classes she found were either too rigid and intense or too lax and not nearly enough to engage her. That is when she turned to her own devices and put together the idea of The Girl Spot!
The Girl Spot is alternative fitness in it’s finest form. Not only can you schedule a class and get an amazing workout, but you can blow off steam from stress at work, from the kids, or just from daily life. Working out at The Girl Spot is like having a night long dance party with your best friends and walking away with a body to show for it. The atmosphere is friendly, warm and nurturing. It is also a place that is not over-sexed, but instead feminine and empowering. “We are not here to turn women into the next stripper attraction, but instead into confident and sexy women who love and respect their bodies." The goal here is to get women of all ages and body types excited about fitness and excited about themselves.
