KRISTINA
For Kristina it’s the combination of strength and sensuality, a range of smooth gestures, dynamic flow and tricks that makes for the magnetism in pole dancing. With a soft spot for diverse music genres, exploring movement through sound textures feeds her interest in dancing in tune with the body - one’s own body as reference point is given extra focus in her teaching.
Pole dancing significantly shaped her ideas around body awareness and especially dancing in heels comes with respect towards its roots in sex work. She’s curious and intrigued by performers, teachers and spaces contrasting the very sanitised format of ‘pole fitness’.
In her classes Kristina strives to share her practice generously and playfully, both on a level of technicality and through her choreographies.
