I have been poling ever since November of 2020 at Achieve! After spending a couple years learning the fundamentals at Achieve, I have been very lucky to connect with a huge variety of pole dancers who have helped me explore different styles and tricks (whilst still maintaining my home base at Achieve).
I started teaching in August of 2023. I love teaching pole tricks for any level (I live to challenge my students, which I am sure they can attest too).
In my day job I teach university students which I love. When the opportunity to teach at Achieve came up I jumped at it. I love sharing what knowledge I’ve been able to scrounge up and to see the progress that my students make with a little help from me.
I have pole danced in 6 countries (constituting 15+ pole studios)

I swear she’s not paying me to say this but I would honestly have to say the boss lady Andrea. I sometimes forget how well-renowned she is in the pole world because she is so down to earth and present with each and everyone of her students. The world has thrown so many challenges her way and she always finds a way to make the best of them and come out on top. I always feel inspired after a class/private with her because she helps set realistic goals and inspires me to believe I can achieve anything on the pole with enough dedication. She also inspires me to become as good as a pole dancer and instructor as her one day (might need to give me a few years for that).

Probably invisibility because I used to hate being the centre of attention (which is definitely not the case when I’m on the pole now)
I love the sense of community and the camaraderie in class. I’ve made so many life long friends as Achieve and I love seeing how supportive everyone is of each other.
Also, I have visited a lot of pole studios in my short time pole dancing and there are very few studios that Achieve 😉 a similar vibe to us. All of us instructors are so invested in our students and we are blessed with some incredible talent at Achieve.
