“We are trying to teach people pole dancing is not about sleazing around in a nightclub.”
A world champion pole dancer wowed fitness fanatics with a special masterclass.
Los Angeles-based star Josiah Grant, nicknamed Badazz, instructed students at the JC Poleschool based at Topnotch Health Club in Colchester.
Instructor Jennie Campbell said the event was a massive success.
She said: “Everyone loved it – it is the equivalent of footballer getting to meet David Beckham.
“For a lot of the students it was their first masterclass and they learned a lot.”
“We are trying to teach people pole dancing is not about sleazing around in a nightclub, I’ve got a background in personal training so fitness is my focus and we have tried to rebrand it PoleFit to try and move away from the stereotype.”
