I am going to be teaching pole dance classes in the Philadelphia area starting in September. 
Despite years of learning and performing on my own (I am completely self-taught...never having had any classes or videos), I started looking into local studios to learn even more this past year or so. I found a lot of really awesome studios but nothing compared to the Awakenings studio in King of Prussia. Their instructors are all certified as personal trainers and their classes are, by far, the best organized and regimented.
I was thrilled when the owner, Heather, asked me to start training as an instructor.
I will be assisting in the teaching of the Level 1 classes (at both the King of Prussia and the new Manayunk location) for the fall session. Once I get my certification and CPR training, I will most likely be teaching classes on my own.
If you have ever been interested in pole dance or pole aerobics, I highly recommend checking this studio out. They have an awesome system of getting their students to build core strength and learn the skills they need to move onto more difficult levels. Plus! My own personal aerials instructor, Kira, will be teaching aerial hammock and also eventually lyra at the Manayunk location. So there is actually more than just pole to learn at Awakenings!
If you or anyone you know is interested in pole dance, check out the site! We are having a grand opening weekend event at the new studio in Manayunk. There will be free demo classes both Saturday and Sunday! (Sept. 10th and 11th)
Hope to see at least a few of you crazy kids!
