Kristi has been pole dancing since 2018, and has been dancing with Soul Pole since 2019. As a former competitive Irish step dancer, pole was a challenge of moving the body in a completely foreign way, and she has fallen in love with both the strengthening tricks and sensual movements that make pole so unique. Through pole, she has found more confidence in expressing herself, in body movements, in creativity, and in sensuality. She has become motivated to grow in her own practices and encourage others to explore new ways to find confidence in themselves.
