After a long hiatus from regular pole training due to school and work commitments, Vanessa is delighted to re-enter the world of pole performance. She entered her first Canadian competition at 19 years old in 2012, and competed in the Professional division nationally in 2013.
What Vanessa loves about pole is its combination of artistry and athleticism, of strength and grace. As a storyteller in her personal life and in her career, pole represents an opportunity to tell a story and to create a powerful aesthetic experience through unique movements of the body in relation to the pole.
Vanessa returns to the BC Pole Fitness Championships 2016 as an entrant in the Pole Art category, purely for her love of performance and creation. She hopes you enjoy this piece as much as she enjoyed creating it.
