Pole on the Call: Pole Dancer Lindsey, Owner of Wonderland Pole & Dance

In this episode, Cris Rivers & Mændy Mac meet Pole Dancer Lindsey, who is the Owner of Wonderland Pole & Dance in Richland, WA.

Bio:
Hey you, I’m Lindsey, owner of Wonderland and I’m also very much a misfit, rebel, not so ladylike, boundary pusher who is passionate about doing things that scare her {YOLO!}, the golden rule, rainbows, butterflies, laughing, and being kind. Raised a Texas girl who never quite seemed to fit in anywhere, I left the moment I could to follow a Soldier around the world and along the way become a mother of 4, a published boudoir/glamour photographer, a licensed trauma informed lifestyle coach and a pole dancer.

In 2021, our family firmly planted roots in Tri-Cities and I felt utterly lost without a dedicated pole studio like I was used to. For me, the pole studio is a place I can always go to just be me, let go of the drama, have fun, be silly, cheer others on, learn from passionate instructors, do crazy stuff that leaves bruises, shake my booty and reclaim my sanity in a brave, welcoming, judgment free environment.

I made a promise to myself, to the women I’ve already met and to all the people I’ve yet to meet to build that brave space with the goal to empower you to dance, grow muscles, make friends, find community, seek joy and flip the world upside down whenever it doesn’t make sense. My sincere hope is for YOU to unleash your inner badass within Wonderland & that I have the privilege of cheering you on as you do!

I hope you dance.

XOXO-L

Pole on the Call: International Pole Coach, Sasja Fierce

In this episode, Cris Rivers & Mændy Mac meet International Pole Coach, Sasja Fierce and learn about her amazing pole career and where she currently teaches.

Bio:
Sasja embarked on her pole journey in 2009 with no athletic or dance background, becoming an instructor within 4 months. She later became 2013 California Pole Dance Champion, 2014 National Aerial Pole Art Champion, 2014 Ink-N-Iron Champion and 2017 Pole Theatre Iceland Classique Pro Champion.
Pole dance opened many doors for Miss Fierce, including the opportunity to perform at Coachella Music Festival with recording artist Halsey and music video with Fergie, under the guidance of world renowned choreographer, Fatima Robinson. Sasja also choreographed a pole segment for the French Montanna tour, as well as appeared on Telemundo, Lifetime, Justin TV and a Fiat commercial.

Sasja has shared her love of expression through movement across the nation and abroad, teaching workshops with emphasis on technique, as well as the necessary mental component, as she believes true growth occurs from the inside out. Every human deserves the opportunity to find their true passion and to live unapologetically fierce.

Pole on the Call: Meet Pole Performer & Coach, Kelly Anne

In this episode, Cris Rivers & Mændy Mac meet Meet Pole Performer & Coach, Kelly Anne of Fly Together Fitness in MA.

Bio:
Pronouns: she/her/hers
Kelly Anne is an instructor at Fly Together Fitness, local performer, and nanny. Kelly Anne joined Fly Together Fitness as a student in January 2020 and later became an instructor in January 2022. Although a classically trained ballet dancer the discipline was beginning to aggravate her newly diagnosed physical disability. This change lead her to find a new way of movement and creative expression via pole dance and fitness. In a domino effect Kelly Anne then also began to better understand her physical and mental needs to keep her healthy, both on and off the pole.

Through pole Kelly Anne has learned how to carve her own path as a creative, at her own pace in a rushed world. As a dancer her passion is slow, sensually embodied movement. As an instructor Kelly Anne enjoys challenging students in ways that may typically be overlooked, but further encourage the mind-body connection (like, if I want to end the combination in a handstand how high up on the pole do I need to start?)

You can find her on Instagram @ms.kellyanne
