Soon after that, I also opened the Ballarat studio where things really started to take off and I began getting interest for franchising. But the classes were going well and eventually we outgrew that space and I looked for a permanent location. Every Friday IвЂ™d drive from Melbourne to Warrnambool and along with my dad, brother and sister, we would transform the вЂkarate dojoвЂ™ and set up 8 X-stages (if youвЂ™ve ever set up even one Xstage youвЂ™ll know that setting up and packing down 8 every week took a lot of commitment!). I often made the trip back to see my family in Warrnambool, and about 2 years into my own pole journey (2009) I was driving back on one of these trips and thought to myself вЂthereвЂ™s nothing like this offered here, I teach dance already and I think my old karate instructor would hire out his space to me on the weekends! LetвЂ™s see how it goes!вЂ™ДЄnd so it began. I continued to become addicted and soon purchased a pole for myself at home and started exploring other studios around Melbourne. I was in so much pain, but I loved it and went back again the next week. In my first lesson I was taught a move that we now teach to level 3sвЂ¦. But I managed to find a very small studio (and when I say small, I mean it was one girl teaching out of her garage with 2 poles), but none the less I went and was excited to learn some of the cool things IвЂ™d seen in pictures online (2007). (By then I was also teaching dance full-time in styles like hip hop and lyrical.) Pole dancing at the time was relatively new in terms of a fitness/dance class. Fast forward a few years and after working Hollywood performing in commercial/live and music video type of dance jobs I was looking to add some more aerial type skills to my resume when I got back to Australia. IвЂ™m Kristy Sellars, founder of PhysiPole Studios and IвЂ™d like to take this opportunity to tell you the story of how it all began! IвЂ™ve always loved to dance, and when I was 16 I decided I wanted to train full-time and complete a Diploma in Performing Arts in Melbourne, rather than VCE at my high school in home town Warrnambool.
