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 pole dance and yoga teacher. She decided to re-train to teach both disciplines to share their transformational power. Lizzie loves the freedom of expression through sensual movement and seeing students feel empowered by what their bodies can do, whether they are first-time polers or more advanced.
Her yoga practice perfectly complements pole dance by building strength, flexibility and trust in herself. She is also a big believer in taking time to rest and recover, so yin, restorative yoga and yoga nidra are her go-to solutions to relax from the demands of pole dancing,

Gigi coaches others to be better a version of themselves than they were yesterday. Sometimes to be able to do that you need someone in your life who will show you love, drive you with discipline, and be there to support you. Gigi will be there each step of the way and will transform your relationship with fitness to see it as a self-love practice and enjoy it.
Gigi started training as a pole dancer after discovering it's not only a fantastic way to build strength and improve cardiovascular health, but also it feeds creativity, fun and freedom!

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!
