Pole Level 2.5 - 4


This class is taught by:

Mackenzie A

Mackenzie began dancing at 3 years old and hasn't stopped since. Attending a performing arts high school as a dance major only strengthened her love of dance and she decided to further her education at Georgian Court University. Mackenzie graduated Summa Cum Laude, earning her a BA in dance with honors in choreography and overall performance. Professionally, Mackenzie teaches dance, group fitness classes, and is a NASM certified personal trainer. She also performs in a Philadelphia based modern dance company, which travels to major cities along the east coast, and internationally. In December of 2017 Mackenzie discovered her love of Pole! It only took one class at Elite for her to realize this was a place that she could build confidence and strength, and where she could express herself through a new, yet also familiar movement vocabulary.
Invited to join the Elite Teacher Training program, Mackenzie jumped at the opportunity to share her love of movement through pole. She hopes to inspire others to find their passion for movement and can't wait to share her knowledge and unique movement style with everyone.

Jenn Poland

Jenn discovered pole in 2011 and along with it, her passion and love for aerials and movement. Intertwining strength, grace, fluidity and embodiment, pole & movement became a life-long journey of learning, exploration and discovery. Jenn is so grateful for the opportunity to share and be a part of igniting this practice with others since 2014. When Jenn is not dancing, you’ll likely find her practicing handstands, cuddling with her dog or hiking.
This is our most advanced class! We will work on building more complicated combos on both static and spin, and continue to challenge your strength, endurance, and flexibility. This is where we will start working on our most advanced tricks like Ayeshas, handsprings, dangerous bird, and more. This is where we start making the hard stuff look easy!
