XPERT Fitness was founded over 10 years ago, starting out with just one pole program it has expanded into multiple of disciplines. XPERT is the only teacher training powered by XPOLE International, the No1 Pole & Aerial equipment manufacturer worldwide.
XPERT Fitness is an advocate of face-to-face training and strives on taking the time to really drive safe and effective learning across all aspects of pole and aerial fitness, standardising our industry along the way yet making safety one of its top priorities.
During the pandemic we had to learn how to adapt, and so our online self-learning and live online courses were created. We wanted to make sure that you still had the same great in-depth content but could learn from your home.
The Pole & Aerial industry has expanded at a rapid pace. Along with its team of highly skilled instructors, XPERT endeavour to bring you the best quality training in the industry whether it be face to face or online.

Olra is a fitness apparel online retailer based in the UK, founded by Charlotte Robertson who was inspired to create versatile activewear made with movement in mind.
Charlotte has been living life upside down since the age of 7. Her background was dance and gymnastics and she started her career in the fitness industry aged 18. A few years in she soon found her love for Pole and Aerial Fitness and has been lucky enough to share this through teaching, competing and travelling around the world. Charlotte has since become UKPPC Elite Champion, achieved 2nd place at PCS Asia and was World Pole Dance Finalist.
In 2017 she had her little boy Arlo and this is where the name Olra is inspired from. After spending a significant amount of time in lockdown (2020) Charlotte was inspired to create a more versatile range of fitness clothing.

Choose your style, whatever that may be. Entries can perform in bare feet, heels, dance slippers, the choice is yours.
Our judges have been handpicked and are all ELITE Champions or experienced Judges so that it is fair and transparent.
