Welcome to part 2 of “I Am Pole: Legends & Legacy” with Michelle Stanek! 💙🔥

After 2-3 years of taking casual pole classes after work, a major life change led Michelle to start teaching pole at Crunch. The more time she spent in the studio dancing, the more serious she got about pole.

Then in 2010, Michelle entered and WON her first competition! 🙂‍↕️🙌🏽

After that first win, Michelle began a streak. She won competition after competition and then finally, the routine that truly changed her life and made pole a career came along: USPDF 2012 🌟

The wait is over! Welcome to “I Am Pole: Legends & Legacy” with the one and only Michelle Stanek 🔥🙌🏽

Michelle took her first pole class in 2006 at a Crunch Fitness. The class took place in the group fitness studio, had 4 people to a pole, and Dry Hands wasn’t even a thought, so it’s not a surprise that it was a crazy, loud, and sweaty. Most importantly though, it was fun! 🤩

Make sure to follow us so you catch all of our episodes with ! 💙

Let us know in the comments - where was your first pole class? Did you ever take a class at a Crunch Fitness? 👀👇🏽

Welcome back to How-To Tuesday! 🌟

This week we cover the Butterfly, an OG pole move and a foundational invert that is usually key to helping you level up!

Safety note: If you’re not comfortable with your invert, Chopper, Crucifix, and Jasmine, this might be a little above your level right now, and that’s okay!

Work on those moves first, and once you have them down, revisit the Butterfly ✨

Shoutout to our wonderful student, for demonstrating 🤩
