“Soul Pole was a fantastic experience- Christina created a very thought-provoking and engaging course, both mentally and physically. You can tell she is very passionate about helping other women feel empowered and create a sense of self-love through the power of community and body movement. I am very grateful to have participated in her first, of what I hope are many other workshops.”

Why Pole Fitness and Therapy Go Together

Trauma isn't just stored in our minds. It's held in our bodies.

Pole fitness combines movement and mindfulness, offering a way to release stored tension, reconnect with your body, and build confidence. It allows you to explore your physical strength and emotional resilience simultaneously. By integrating therapeutic principles, this workshop uses the power of movement to help you process emotions, heal, and rediscover joy in your body.

Meet Your Facilitator

Hello! I’m Christina, a licensed therapist with extensive experience facilitating workshops designed to inspire growth and healing. I’ve also been pole dancing for nearly 10 years, and it has truly changed my life for the better. As someone with a disability, traditional dance posed many challenges, but pole dancing offered a liberating alternative where I could rely on my upper body strength and face fewer limitations. Through pole dancing, I’ve discovered strength, power, confidence, and a deep connection to myself and my body’s sensuality. The healing and therapeutic impact of pole fitness inspired me to combine my passion for pole with my professional expertise as a therapist, creating this one-of-a-kind workshop to help others experience the same transformation.
