Pole Passion began in 2003 with a simple but bold mission: to bring safe, structured and professional pole fitness into the mainstream. At a time when no teaching standards existed, we pioneered the first progressive training frameworks, launched the UK’s national pole competitions and created a global movement rooted in confidence, empowerment and expert instruction.

 

For over two decades, we have shaped the development of pole and aerial fitness across the UK and internationally. Our work includes:

• Founding Miss Pole Dance UK and producing world-class competitions that raised performance standards worldwide.

• Developing the first impartial judging system, now used internationally.

• Inventing the RPole, the world’s leading portable, free-standing pole without a stage base.

• Creating the UK’s first mapped and accredited instructor training routes, aligned to national occupational standards.

• Supporting thousands of students and instructors worldwide through events, retreats, gradings and professional development.

 

Today, Pole Passion remains the authority for safe, inspiring and progressive pole & aerial education. We work with studios, instructors and students who want professional standards, credible qualifications and a pathway to personal and career transformation.

 

From international training camps in Budapest, to online global certifications, to licensing our Pole Grading System for studios, our mission is still the same: to elevate the standards of pole and aerial fitness through expert education, community and innovation.

 

Whether you are training for passion, performance or profession, you are part of a legacy that continues to shape the future of our industry.
