Soul Pole is...

More than just a pole dancing class. It's a transformative therapeutic journey led by a licensed therapist. Soul Pole is the first of its kind to integrate:

  • Therapeutic Techniques

    Each session is led by a licensed therapist who guides participants through group discussions, mindful activities, reflection prompts, and coping skills for emotional regulation.

  • Empowerment Through Movement

    Gain strength and confidence as you master beginner pole techniques at your own pace during this powerful journey that includes 1 intro class followed by a 6-week series.

  • A Safe, Welcoming Space

    Soul Pole is for EVERY body! This is a judgment-free zone where all shapes, sizes, and abilities are celebrated.

Soul Pole Program Overview

Soul Pole is designed as a two-part journey, allowing participants to explore and better understand the experience before committing to the full program. Both the Intro Class and the Full 6-Week Workshop will take place at a pole studio in the greater Phoenix valley area. Specific location will be determined closer to the start date of the next cycle.

  • Part 1: Intro Class

    Try a fun, empowering standalone class with no long-term commitment! The Introductory Class gives you a taste of the movement, pole fitness, guided discussions, and therapeutic approach, while also setting the foundation for those ready to dive deeper into the full 6-week journey. This is a great way to experience a taste of what to expect from the full workshop.

  • Part 2: Full 6-Week Series

    Keep the journey going with six weeks of growth, empowerment, and self-discovery! The full 6-week program takes everything from the Intro Class to the next level, with weekly 90-minute sessions designed to help you embrace your strength, sensuality, and self-love. Throughout the series, you'll engage with a structured curriculum, a skillfully designed therapeutic workbook, and personalized guidance from a licensed therapist. The program concludes with a special two-hour closing celebration, which includes a free mini photoshoot (an exclusive perk for the first-ever Soul Pole cycle) to capture and honor your progress!

Why Therapy and Pole Fitness Go Together

Trauma isn't just stored in our minds. It's held in our bodies.

Pole fitness combines movement and mindfulness, offering a way to release stored tension, reconnect with your body, and build confidence. It allows you to explore your physical strength and emotional resilience simultaneously. By integrating therapeutic principles, this workshop uses the power of movement to help you process emotions, heal, and rediscover joy in your body.

Meet Your Facilitator

Hello! I’m Christina, a licensed therapist with extensive experience facilitating workshops designed to inspire growth and healing. I’ve also been pole dancing for nearly 10 years, and it has truly changed my life for the better. As someone with a disability, traditional dance posed many challenges, but pole dancing offered a liberating alternative where I could rely on my upper body strength and face fewer limitations. Through pole dancing, I’ve discovered strength, power, confidence, and a deep connection to myself and my body’s sensuality. The healing and therapeutic impact of pole fitness inspired me to combine my passion for pole with my professional expertise as a therapist, creating this one-of-a-kind workshop to help others experience the same transformation.
