"As a dentist it is important to find a way to reduce stress while getting a great workout. When I first started the investigation into pole fitness I knew it was just what I was looking for .Once I started in classes it became an Addiction. I loved it. I have since opened a pole fitness studio in Warrenton Virginia. We are empowering our clients thru the Pole Dancing and Anti Gravity Yoga. I've completed certifications in the UK with Pole People and in Vancouver British Columbia and trained with many pole Pros. In August I completed the pole dance certification with Fawnia. At the training I found out about the Pole Expo. Ladies and Gents get ready because this is going to be Big. How great it is to have men and women coming together and sharing their experiences and passion for pole dancing and the aerial arts. I can't wait until September. See you in Vegas!"
