Andrea started gymnastics at 8 years-old and as she turned 11, changed to Trampoline – where she competed in national and international championships.
When she started her studies she had to quit sports, which was very difficult. One day she was watching a video from a Pole dancer and was so intrigued she knew she had to try it right away! After her first class, she only regretted not starting earlier. She began additionally taking Ballet and Modern Jazz courses to improve her dancing skills and meanwhile took part, during four consecutive summers, of an aerial show with my circus school.
Since then she has taken workshops with many famous Pole Stars and many classes. Moreover, her gymnastics background allowed her to learn very fast and already in 2015 she started teaching in her Pole Studio “Pole Dance Mallorca” (her hometown). In 2017, she decided to move to Germany to continue her professional career. When she first learnt heels flow in Germany she fell in love until at some point she was even more focused on flowing on those super high heels, than nailing tricks like the fonji, the phoenix. In 2018, she started teaching heels/sensual flow in Unique Pole Darmstadt, and after one year I joined “The Basement” Team in Offenbach to teach the spinning Pole courses.
In 2021 she moved to Berlin and now is a part of our Pole Flow teams as heels and pole technique instructor. ‘’My biggest passion right now is just to put on music and improvise (with or without heels). I feel very inspired with the pole flow vibes and very excited to share my love to pole with PFB students!’’
Robyn started pole dancing at Pole Flow Berlin roughly 4 years ago and just never stopped since. After teaching in several other studios in Berlin and giving workshops all over, he is now happy to come back “home” and join the poleflow family as an instructor. Robyn teaches pole technique for all levels.
Amissa is a mover, performer and monkey at heart. They lived their early human-years always dancing and playing in youth theater groups.
Amissa’s love for pole dancing started when they just arrived in Berlin. After just the first class they were immediately in love. Now, they realize it has meant a lot more than just finding an amazing hobby. It also made them find their way back to dancing, performing, creating. It opened doors to a new world, such as the world of aerial arts and circus arts in general. Amissa is very driven to live their life exploring movement in its broadest sense. They are always eager to learn more and more!
As a teacher, Amissa is passionate to pass on what has brought them so much joy. Every class, the students should feel good about themselves. Creating a safe(r) and wholesome space is much more important than pushing students to do difficult tricks!
Movement education:
Chrisitina comes from a smalltown in southern Indiana and since a few years has been based in Berlin as a pole, movement & flexibility trainer.
‘’My first connection to movement was through gymnastics. I fell in love with acrobatics, but after moving away my movement journey soon changed to sports and later on, to dance. I started with Latin dance and later, pole dance.
I got into pole because I wanted to feel more in touch with myself and my body. I wanted the confidence pole dancers have and the idgaf-what-you-think-about-me attitude. Plus the combination of body + mind +sensuality + strength captivated me.
I love teaching poles because it’s empowering. It allows for our bodies to be this creative work of art that we’re free to move and mold as we please. It lifts physically and mentally and I love seeing students leave my class glowing.’’

Maria is a passionate pole dance instructor and is happy to share her passion with her students.
“I fell in love with movement when I experienced firsthand the mental and physical benefits of working out. In 2017 my passion drove me to start a Fitness and Health Youtube channel, which allowed me to broaden my knowledge through content creation and research. Curiosity kept me learning about new forms of movement until I finally tried Pole Dance in 2018, and I was hooked immediately. Imagine coming from a very repressive, conservative, chauvinistic country and suddenly stepping into a place where nobody is shamed, where sensuality is celebrated, diversity is honored, and also… people are STRONG AF!!! I was in awe!
Since that day, pole dancing has been helping me connect with my body, reject old belief systems and reframe my own ideas of sensuality, sexuality, and freedom.
I got the opportunity to become a teacher in 2021, and I feel blessed to provide that same safe and encouraging space for others to get stronger, shine bright, and enjoy movement.”
Born in 2000, Mateva is a rising Pole Dancer and Pole Dance instructor originating from Italy/Germany. Pole Dance has become her big love since 2017 and she has been sharing her passion through teaching in Vienna, Bavaria and now finally in Berlin, where she is rocking her best pole dance life.
“Teaching gives me so much joy and inspiration. Since I started with no background in dance or sport, I know that pole dancing is for everyone and anyone. I am here to show you how much fun the learning process can be!”
Seliquere, Latin for “to be fluid”, lives up to her name by oozing across the floor, up and down the pole, and into your heart. She combines flowy and drippy movement with high-energy bursts of fun and dynamics.
With a movement background in dance, gymnastics, and acrobatics, and a theoretical background in physiology, anatomy, and kinesiology, Seliquere places great importance on understanding the interaction between our body (muscle, bone, tendon, ligaments) and the movement we create. She emphasizes safety and longevity when it comes to dancing, and hopes all her students can continue to create beautiful art for decades to come.
You’ll find lots of enthusiasm, texture enunciation, and fluidity in her class, as well as a safe place to explore new movements, make mistakes, and ask questions. A proud member of the queer community, Seliquere asserts that pole, sensual movement, and dancing is for everybody, every gender identity, and every sexual orientation. There is no greater joy than authentic self-expression, and she hopes you can find that joy with her during class.

Trisha is a professional pole dancer and teacher, originating from Bavaria and since 2022 based in Berlin.
‘’I started my dance journey as a kid taking ballet lessons. My ballet journey lasted roughly 10 years and built the base of my movement as of today. After all those years I got sick of the rigid rules of ballet and wished to explore more. After finding Daria Che on Instagram in 2018 I started taking pole lessons in Munich, where I was based. It started as a hobby but quickly with the love for pole turned into a profession.
Since then I have developed my skills in heels, spinning pole and static flow/ static rotation. I have taken classes with highly skilled trainers such as Estefania Jimenez, Marion Crampe, Lorenza Perrone and of course Daria Che as well. Now I am excited to share my knowledge with my students. I love to focus on details, instead of wild tricks and complicated shapes. I love to keep it playful yet clean and accurate, even with the most basic climbs. Let’s explore and play with the details. I can’t wait to dance with you!’’

“Art is a powerful form of expression. In my life, I often couldn’t find the right words to express my deepest emotions. Pole dance gives me the freedom to really be myself, by helping me to find the strength to cope with my fears. As a teacher, I like to enable my students to overcome their limits, discover new skills and polish flowing moves, without ever forgetting that it is a way to express ourselves.”

Huong has been dancing since she was a child.
At the age of 8 she joined a Vietnamese dance group based in Berlin and performed at various events (e.g. Karneval der Kulturen). She then moved on to dance Hip Hop for a year and paused to focus on school and college after. During her studies in 2015 she randomly stumbled upon a pole dancing video and immediately looked up pole classes not knowing how much this step will change her life. From then on she fell in love and took all the pole classes she could afford in Berlin until she started teaching others in 2018. She now focuses more on how to improve as an instructor in order to provide a safe space for everyone who joins her classes.
