I have been poling dancing since 2009 and have instructed pole since 2011. Pole was my first aerial love, and after trying everything from lyra and silks to flying trapeze, it’s still my favourite (and still gives me the most interesting bruises, or “pole trophies”).

I am still amazed at the positive affect pole has on people’s lives, especially when I remember my own humble beginnings all those years ago when I couldn’t even do one push up!

• Performed at WAPPS 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 (solo, doubles and group of 5 performances)

• Performed at student showcases 2013, 2014 (including a doubles routine with Miss Tammy Baxter herself)

• 1st place at Sexpo main stage pole comp 2013

• Entertained the phone room (with pole) and live crosses at Telethon 2011, 2012 and 2013

In 2010 I had an office job where I sat down all day, I had bad eating habits and partied most weekends. It wasn’t long before I realised I had put on quite a bit of weight and decided I needed to change my lifestyle. I slogged my arse off to the gym gave up smoking and alcohol and learnt all about having a healthy lifestyle, which has changed my life completely. I worked hard and have lost around 40kgs.

I am currently right into my weight training and teaching others how to live an active and healthy life. Pole dancing, Kick boxing, heavy weight training and HIIT have all become a huge part of my life and I love helping others to achieve their fitness goals.

I must warn you though if you do my classes expect to do lots of burpees.
