January 2025 Student of the Month: Veronica

When did you start your pole journey?

Summer 2024.

Why did you decide to try pole classes at Pole Pressure?

I’m in the constant pursuit of movement and wanted to try a new type of class.

What do you love most about pole classes at Pole Pressure?

I love being humbled constantly and then one day a move clicks into place and the sense of accomplishment is incredible.

If you could train with any of your pole idols, who would it be and why?

It would have to be Kelechi Okafor. I love her approach to life and how outspoken she is about inequalities in the world. She has such a fierce presence and then you see her dance and she blows your mind. We’re all just baby girls in the end.

What motivates you to train?

Those old life call commercials of elderly people yelling “I’ve fallen and can’t get up”.

What are some of your goals for this year?

Consistency through failure. I get discouraged sometimes when it comes to not getting a move or something not clicking. So, I want to make sure I don’t quit on the bad days.

Why do you love Pole Pressure?

I love the community everyone is so encouraging and I’m constantly in awe at the confidence and grace in each class.
