Meet Toni, heels specialist, advanced poler, hoop instructor, fire performer and our fearless leader!
If you take a tour of our studio, you'll see the many medals, trophies and awards Toni has achieved in over 20 years of pole. There isn't anything that Toni hasn't experienced during her pole career and she has the incredible ability to observe and identify the slightest change needed to improve a pole move. If you are looking to advance your heel or pole performance than Toni is the instructor for you.
Toni doesn't just have skills in pole, she is also an experienced yogi with a vast knowledge of contortion techniques. Toni teaches aerial hoop and has now brought her incredible fire dance skills to the studio with regular fire workshops!!
Michelle
Meet Michelle, aerial silks specialist, pole instructor, hammock lover and spinning Queen.
Michelle came to the aerial world in her 30's after having 2 children and realising that she wanted to do something new with her fitness. After discovering aerial silks, Michelle fell in love with the art, leading to her competing in and winning the North West round of the UK Aerial Championships.
Soon, Michelle wanted a new challenge which brought her to pole. With a new passion and drive to learn, Michelle discovered a love for spinning and creating pretty shapes and combos. She enjoys bringing fun flows to her classes, whether on the fabric or a pole.
Cheryl
Meet Cheryl, our inspirational power house of pole!
While Cheryl has always enjoyed keeping fit, she only started her pole journey at 48 after battling and surviving cancer. Now in her 50's Cheryl continues to build her skill set (and muscles) demonstrating that it is never too later to start your own journey.
Cheryl loves working on fun combos and has recently developed a love of dynamic flips. She'll be the first one to tell you the benefit of cross training and is always there to lend a helping hand or offer some inspirational words of advice.
