Eva - Pole, Hoop, Silks and Stretch instructor
Eva has always enjoyed dancing, from Lindy hop to Tango, Salsa to Icelandic folk dance. She has always enjoyed exercise, such as football, running and weight lifting. In 2012 Eva wanted to build up her upper body strength, so she decided to give Pole Fitness a try and there was no turning back!
“What I like most about pole is that the focus in solely on your own journey. We are all differently built and have different strengths and weaknesses. In a pole class you can let your strong side shine and also build you up in a supportive environment.”
Eva enjoys making routines and doubles pole. She has competed twice in Innanhúsmót Pole Sport, Iceland and once at the European Pole Sport Championship. However, she prefers doing showcases and has performed both as a part of a pair or in groups on various occasions. When Eva is not hanging upside down on a pole in a studio she might be seen on a lamp post or a traffic sign, as she collects pictures of her “flagging” around the world.
Jen - Pole, Hoop, Silks and Stretch instructor
Not your typical pole dancer (in Jen's words), Jen started pole fitness as an opportunity to build confidence and to get active, having only dabbled in a handful of dance classes over the years. Interested in yoga, athletics, football and horse riding, Jen practiced gymnastics as a young girl and, for a small period, ballet before realising conventional sports and dance just weren't quite right! She has a love of drama, theatre and art, having studied physical theatre and fine art and is always up for anything creative, unique and quirky! Since starting pole, Jen has also taken to aerial hoop in an attempt to live out her childhood dream of joining the circus. Jen loves challenging herself with new moves and combos and brings this to her teaching; believing that anyone is capable of anything with the right steps and encouragement. "The tallest mountain will look impossible when you are at the base of it. Start taking steps forward and then you can look back at how much you achieve along the way."
Melody - Pole instructor
Melody has always loved dance and from a young age attended various classes from Ballet to Street. She is a keen horse rider and actress, as well as Pole she teaches Drama. She was also a keen gymnast."I love to keep fit, however get bored with merely running or attending the Gym. I always try and go for fun innovative ways to get fit, dance is always a great way to enjoy exercise! Over the years I have tried Groove FX classes, Zumba, Aqua-Aerobics and then pole and have never looked back! Pole offers new challenges both physically and mentally, develops upper-body strength and is a chance to meet new friends and of course a fun way to tone up and get fit!"

Freya - Pole and Silks instructor
Freya was a successful artistic gymnast for many years, competing up to National level and could often be found upside down from an early age!
"I had wanted to try pole for a while and finally plucked up the courage to go to a class and I love it!" I love the strength but also the grace and artistry involved in each move; partly why I've also taken a passion for silks.
Freya has another love, her cocker spaniel Luna!
Lou - Pole and Hoop instructor
Lou has a ballet background from her younger days, later concentrating on cross country running and athletics at county level. Nowadays she loves snowboarding, skiing, mountain biking and generally anything fast and dangerous.
"I've done pole on and off since 2009 and got the bug again when I started hoop in 2014. I can't take my children to the park without hanging upside down off something!
I'm constantly furthering my training and qualifications, and I love seeing the satisfaction when someone learns a new move."

Sarah - Pole, Aerial Hammock and Stretch instructor
Sarah came to pole later than some, not starting until she was in her forties. Although a keen gymnast and swimmer at school, the intervening years only involved a bit of cycling to get about. Since starting pole she has been inspired to be back in the gym and take up yoga in order keep improving.
