About me:

I am a 44 years old, married (three times, but twice to the same man!) mother of two daughters (19 and 6 years old)
I am a qualified Accountant and Tax Adviser and I work full time running my own accountancy practice. I have a Biochemistry degree, and I am Treasurer of Maidstone Lions Club, a voluntary charity organisation.
So - basically always been a bit of a boffin and in the profession considered the most boring in the universe! Until I started Pole Fitness classes I had never done anything remotely sporty apart from the odd aerobics class. I was always the very last one to be picked for team games at school.

Why I started:

My teenage daughter was getting quite unfit, so I Googled to find a exercise or dance class that would appeal to her and that we could do together. When Pole Secrets came up on the search I knew it would appeal to Holly, but I was worried that I might be too old. I emailed to enquire about classes and age restrictions and was delighted to find out that there are plenty of ladies my age at the classes.
So, nine months ago, Holly and I started our classes. She has now gone away to Uni but I have become addicted!

What pole fitness has done for me:

I am definitely much fitter and stronger. I now attend other classes such as yoga just to improve my flexibility for the Pole Fitness classes. My figure and posture are improved, my body is more toned and It makes me feel younger. I now no longer feel the need to buy expensive anti-wrinkle creams - so the classes have paid for themselves!

What I think of Pole Secrets:

The teachers are all very professional, friendly, encouraging and awe-inspiringly talented. The difference between Pole Secrets classes and other exercise classes I have taken is that I am always looking forward to each class, not dragging myself along because I know I should. It is constantly challenging and really satisfying when you find you can do something that a few weeks before you were thinking would be totally impossible. I have made really good friends with the other ladies in the class and would totally recommend Pole Secrets to anyone looking for an exciting, addictive and really fun way to get fit
