Kay Penney -
One of the first pole dance for fitness instructors in the UK and world,
who started practicing pole dance techniques in 2001 soon after the birth of
her third child as a new fun way to remain in shape mentally and physically,
innovating and pioneering the UK pole industry.
As a dance, health and beauty expert and fitness professional, for now over
25 years, from the very early age, Kay Penney has made Pole now her sole dance
and fitness passion. she is
co-inventor of the RPole, the first ever free standing, light weight, portable
pole designed specifically for the gym environment and pole fitness programmes and accredited
instructor training she developed in 2008, awarding students the highest awards
in the industry from foundational courses to Master trainer status.
Kay has spent the last 10 years continually creating,
networking internationally, supporting and promoting all pole athletes across
the world working with different cultures and ethics, with her simple mission
and message in mind – that to allow all to showcase their art of pole dance and
passion on a world stage without the fear of being wrongly judged.
She created her own pole business in 2003 'Pole Passion
Ltd', which is known across the globe and went on to create the largest and
most respected pole competition in the UK, Miss Pole Dance UK, following on
adding all categories, amateur and semi pro divisions, including the first Male
championships, Mr Pole Fitness UK in 2009, culminating in the creation of World
Pole Sport & Fitness Championships – World Pole Dance in 2009 in Jamaica.
She continues to have a daily and very active role in her
business’ supporting women and men in this chosen genre, and is proud to
have her burlesque instructor training certifications accredited in
the UK for fitness too.
She is co designer of the portable RPole
created with a desire to have a sexy yet functional piece of fitness equipment
in the gyms across the world.
