Sophie
Sophie has been pole dancing for six years and teaching for just over two at VertiGal Aerial Fitness.
With a passion for health and fitness Sophie has relished watching the way pole and the aerial arts has evolved over the years, and not only does she take great pleasure in teaching pole, but loves to share her passion by writing about it through her freelance journalism work.

Sophie’s mantra is that life is always better upside down!
Linda
Linda has been poleing since VertiGal opened in 2011.
She is a keen rock climber, but her interest in aerial arts has quickly taken over her spare time.
She loves that it is super fun and feels more like playing, rather than working out.
The social aspect is also a highlight for her. Linda has two daughters that are often with her at the studio, both love to have a spin and be mum’s little doubles partner.
