Pole Dance Instructor & CBD Studio Manager
Jake
“Strong, smooth, unstoppable.”
Jake began his pole journey in 2017 with Pole Princess and quickly fell in love with the combination of strength, artistry, and self-expression that pole offers. With a background in dance, gymnastics, and acrobatics, Jake spent several years training with the Flying Fruit Fly Circus during his teens, developing the athleticism and performance skills that continue to influence his pole style today. His first competition was The Pole Room's SHINE in 2019, where he placed 2nd in the Advanced Category. Since then, he has continued to grow as both an athlete and performer, taking home the title of MXPDV Champion in 2024 and EXOGEN Men's Division Champion in 2025. Today, Jake is the Studio Manager of The Pole Room CBD and is passionate about helping students build confidence, achieve their goals, and discover what they're capable of both on and off the pole. His classes are known for being supportive, encouraging, and just the right amount of nuts. When he's not in the studio, you'll usually find him with his nose in a book, playing video games, or dreaming about his next margarita on a beach somewhere.
Music I’m Loving Now
Jake’s music taste is extremely eclectic, with absolutely no respect for genre or consistency. 😂 His playlists can jump from Lady Gaga, Kelly Clarkson, Parkway Drive and Brooke Candy to Annie Lennox, Florence + The Machine, Melissa Etheridge and Luther Vandross. Throw in a few movie soundtracks (especially The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Les Misérables) and you’ve got the full picture. He grew up listening to his mum’s favourites like Cher and ABBA, and honestly… it all went downhill from there.
