Vanessa fell in love with pole when she discovered that Pole Dancing was not just a physical activity that helps women and men gain strength and resistance, but that it also helps women express and feel comfortable with their own bodies. She started practicing pole in 2011 and began teaching in 2013. Vanessa loves challenging others to achieve their goals and keeping them motivated to learn.
