Meet Shelby
With almost 11 years of experience in pole dancing, Miss Shelby has become a true expert in body movement, artistic expression, and the unique challenges women face at every stage of life. As a 41-year-old navigating peri-menopause, Shelby has a deep understanding of the ever-changing female body and the physical and emotional shifts we experience through the years.
In 2018, Shelby founded her pole studio in Christies Beach, creating a welcoming and inclusive space where students can grow in strength, confidence, and creativity. Her passion for health and fitness is rooted in over 20 years in the fitness industry, during which she has gained in-depth knowledge of nutrition, meal planning, training programs, and how nutrients impact daily energy levels and overall well-being. Shelby holds a Cert IV in Fitness, Cert IV in Business, and is currently undertaking a Bachelor of Food and Nutrition.
Shelby’s achievements on the pole are just as impressive as her credentials. She has competed and placed in numerous competitions, winning many prestigious titles. Shelby has been crowned Miss Pole Dance South Australia in both the Professional and Amateur divisions, and has competed in the Miss Pole Dance Australia national event. She is also a champion of the AAPC Advanced Division and placed second in the South Australian Pole Championships Professional Division.
Shelby’s personal journey into pole dancing began with a background in ballroom dancing and a strong level of fitness from teaching group fitness classes. She thought she would be a natural at pole, but quickly learned that it required more than just raw talent. It took dedication, determination, and years of practice to master the art, and over time she became one of South Australia’s best pole dancers. This journey taught her that anyone can become any version of a pole dancer with the right support and guidance.
Beyond the studio, Shelby is an animal lover and an inspiring dancer, demonstrating grace, athleticism, and a fierce commitment to the art of pole. Her philosophy is that every woman deserves tailored support and guidance on their path to wellness, no matter their age or stage in life.
In addition to her pole training, Shelby offers private nutrition support, including personalized meal planning, coaching, goal setting, and more, to ensure that students are not only developing strength through movement but also fueling their bodies in the best way possible.
