Beginners Pole -1
Owner/Instructor-Laura Robinson
I have always and will always dance.
For me dancing is freedom, release, empowerment. It's how I ground myself when things get tough, my happy place, the place I go to find my inner strength.
As a child I took tap, modern and ballet classes, but quickly got bored of the structure and regime and began making up my own routines in a friends garage to my favorite pop songs! The nineties, took my dancing to the club and festival circuit and so began my life long passion for house music! I then began bellydancing in 2008 covering classical Egyptian and Middle Eastern styles along with Caberet, ATS (Amercian Tribal Style) and Tribal Fusion and then, in 2011, I discovered Pole Dancing!
From my very first lesson with Spin City in Exeter I was hooked! I loved the combination of strength and grace involved and the challenges I was continually faced with. Pole quickly became a way of life and has enabled me to make so many positive life changes. I am fitter and stronger than ever before, more confident as a person and I have also made some lifelong friends through sharing a pole.
Though my initial approach to Pole was as a fitness regime, I have come to love the freedom and flow of freestyle, combining Pole moves with other forms of dance & the challenge of dancing in my 8 inch heels! Staying true to my roots, I also love to podium dance at festival and club events alongside both well known & local DJ's.
I qualified as a beginner Pole Fitness Instructor in 2016 with the PDC approved School, Spin City and began my teaching career at Spin City Exeter before opening Polearity at the end of 2016.
​
Polearity Pole, Dance & Alternative Fitness Studio is a labor of love, a platform on which I hope to share my passion for pole dance and alternative fitness, a catalyst for powering positive change. Pole has changed my life for the better, in so many ways, mind, body and soul. It is a constant source of motivation & personal empowerment and I can't wait to share it all with you!
​
See you on the pole!
