As a child I participated in competitive gymnastics, dance & cheer. In 2011 when TML opened I was 8 years old, I literally grew up in a pole studio.

A friend introduced me to pole dance. I was hooked from day one. Having a background and teaching both gymnastics & cheer I did take to it naturally.

When I started, pole dancing wasn't the norm. I wanted to do something that helped with fitness that I wouldn't get bored with after a week.

Being a dancer for so long has introduced me to almost every style of dance. I first became intrigued with pole dance through social media.

Don't hesitate to give it a try—you don't have to be a specific size, shape, or fitness level to slink around the pole! You will be amazed how quickly your body will adapt, as everytime you rotate around the pole you are building incremental strength!
