About Us

We are passionate about making our students comfortable to embrace their femininity. 

The founder, Vee has over 18 years experience working as a GoGo dancer/stripper and performer across Europe. She opened Exotique Dance School to provide a safe and inclusive space for any woman from any background to join our community and explore beyond pole dance.  

​

Lizzie, Gigi and Paige joined the team in August 2023 bringing yoga, fitness and additional pole classes to studio.

​

Our core belief is that pole dance, yoga and fitness are powerful tools for self-expression, self-knowledge, improving body confidence and fitness, but also reclaiming female sexuality and sensuality.

Lizzie

Partner and Yoga Teacher

Lizzie is a qualified yoga teacher specialising in Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin and Restorative practices. She decided to train as a teacher when she started to learn more about the transformational power of a yoga practice beyond the poses. Lizzie found that breathwork, meditation and working with the chakra system of Tantra helps to manage her mental health and has developed self-knowledge to trust her intuition and is passionate about sharing these tools with others.

She also takes pole classes at the studio and loves the freedom of expression through sensual movement, which she weaves into her yoga classes.

Paige

Partner and Pole Dance Teacher

Paige’s interest in poling grew when she realized she didn’t enjoy the gym, but needed a creative way to get fit. She used her love for music, and her 10 years worth of ballet experience and went into a new venture of pole fitness. She quickly fell in love with learning tricks on the pole and knew that she wanted to share this experience and pleasure with others. 

 

She now spends her time teaching tailoring private beginners lessons, by either creating routines for individuals or teaching tricks in isolation. Paige also loves workshopping The Pole Experience with ladies who are looking for a fun time on the pole and being part of a fun and welcoming community!
