Welcome to PhysiPole Studios, where every step of our journey is guided by the joy and empowerment of our students and making pole & aerial fitness accessible for more people.
At PhysiPole, our focus has always been on our students’ experiences and how they feel within our community. It all started with a passion for dance and a desire to explore new forms of movement, founder Kristy Sellars started early days training in Melbourne dancing and discovered the exhilarating world of pole dancing.
Once Kristy discovered this world and realized this was something that would benefit so many others and that it needed to reach more people, that spark of inspiration led to the birth of our first studio in 2009, where we transformed a simple space into a hub of creativity and strength. Every Friday Kristy would drive from Melbourne to Warrnambool and transform a karate dojo space into a pole studio setting up x8 X-stages (with family’s help) we dedicated ourselves to creating a welcoming environment where anyone could discover their own potential with pole fitness.
Our success isn’t just measured in numbers; it’s reflected in the stories of transformation and empowerment from our students. Whether you’re in your fitness journey or just wanting some fun, we believe in the power of pole fitness to uplift, inspire and empower individuals no matter who you are.
We don’t think of our classes as fitness, our students re-imagine their thought on fitness learning to nourish their soul and body.
