ABOUT KASSIA
Hey there, I am a pole dance coach, sports rehabilitator, and massage therapist with over 15 years experience in the pole dance industry.
I love to help dedicated pole dancers understand their bodies, mitigate injury, and progress their pole skills.
My approach offer detailed coaching and individualised strength and conditioning so you can keep progressing safely and confidently. Whether you’re rebuilding after an injury, chasing a new trick, or simply aiming to feel stronger and more in control; you’ll find a supportive space with me to do that.
My story
I started pole dancing over 15 years ago, and it completely changed my life. I had no interest in movement before finding pole and what keeps me hooked is that it’s ever changing. There’s always a new challenge to explore and new ways to grow. Along the way I became a Graduate Sports Rehabilitator and massage therapist, which gave me a deeper understanding of how the body adapts, heals, and performs.
Over time, I realised what I love about this work is helping people feel reassured and empowered when they’re in pain or doubting their abilities.
Many of my clients who are recovering from an injury are also neurodivergent and/or highly anxious. As someone with autism, I understand how overwhelming it can feel to be in a body that doesn’t feel like its cooperating, especially if you’re neurodiverse. My role is to listen, to help you make sense of what’s happening, and to guide you back to movements that feels safe and strong again.
Although I love working with people in person, I was drawn to the online world of learning so created Online Pole Class to encompass all my in-depth knowledge around pole dance and injury rehabilitation.
My philosophy
Pole dance can be an intense sports but progress doesn’t always mean pushing harder. There are so many ways to progress in the details: coordination, fluidity, and confidence. I strive to create an environment that’s educational and supportive. This is a space where you can rebuild strength, refine your technique, and reconnect with why you fell in love with pole in the first place.
Work with me
You can train with me in person through classes and private coaching at Bendy Studio or online through my membership platform, Online Pole Class, where I teach pole technique and injury prevention.
If you’re in pain from an injury or feel you never recovered from an old one, then you can book in for sports rehabilitation through online video call or see me in person.
If you are ready to move with confidence and longevity, then I’d love to work with you!
