Emma
Emma first discovered her love for dance when she started Burlesque dancing for fun in 2018. Ironically enough, Emma had a terrible time at her first pole class when she started on a Groupon in late 2019. But three classes in, and some success with her first pole move made her quickly hooked to this incredible art form. Emma has been head over heels in love with pole ever since!Emma decided to take her pole journey to a new level after suffering an injury in 2022, resulting in a long journey of learning about healing, injury prevention, her hypermobile body, chronic pain, and nervous system regulation. Emma describes herself as a “diehard feminist”, so combining her love of pole, her newfound knowledge of the body, and her passion for feminism by teaching women to pole dance felt like a natural next step for her. Emma is known for making her students feel safe, encouraging them to be their authentic selves, whilst also listening to their bodies and tuning into their sensuality through dance. Emma gets so much joy from seeing other women come into their own, building their confidence, self-esteem, and strength too! Emma lives a different life by day, working as a Speech Therapist teaching young children to communicate. Empowering others really is Emma’s passion, as well as learning ALL the things (she’s a bit of a nerd) and eating chocolate of course. She’s also a proud cat and plant mum.

share the knowledge and experience she had.

Sam was hooked on pole dancing in her first few classes and has only been getting more crazy obsessed ever since. Sam competed in her first pole competition in 2022 and she loved it so much she doing it all again this year.
Back when Sam was about 9/10 years olds she was doing gymnastics and won her self some little trophies.

Lauren
Roisin
Roisin has always been interested in dance, whether that was Irish dancing when she was a little one, or dancing throughout high school.
She always wanted to start pole dancing, spent about 2 years procrastinating and trying to make friends join with her. She ended up taking the plunge and joining a new studio all by herself, and literally never looked back.
Roisin has been doing pole dancing for nearly 3 years, and has achieved so much, including teaching! Roisin wanted to start pole dancing to increase her own body confidence and gain more strength. Along with building her strength, Roisin is so much more confident in her own body, which has now resulted in a goal of wanting to compete!
Roisin is known for making up some cool combos, with variations of your favourite tricks! She’s always looking on Instagram for new tricks to teach, and loves a good freestyle!
This super star has also completed a Master of Sexology – her whole job is about teaching about relationships and sexuality, researching sexual health, and being surrounded by like minded people in the space! Basically her whole life revolves around sexuality, sexual health – cool right?
Roisin lives by the words ‘people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel’ – Maya Angelou
