"Before I discovered Pole Dance, I had zero fitness background, I had no flexibility and I was very self conscious of my body. When I started, I was hooked! I saw changes in my fitness levels, my flexibility, my coordination, my body, but most importantly, my attitude. I found a confidence in myself I didn't think I had. And that is why I decided to open Spykes Pole Dance and Fitness, to share my passion with others. I hope you feel the benefits I feel and more!"
Sabriye Erer
Sabriye "Sabi" Erer walked into Spykes Pole Dance And Fitness 4 years ago and started her Pole journey in Stacey Spykes' first ever class. Stacey saw potential in her and admired her love for the lyrical side of Pole.
Once she got her instructor qualification, Sabi joined the Spykes team in late 2017.
She is studying for more qualifications to bring more to Spykes, including Aerial Arts for kids!! (Watch this space!!)
Her favourite aspects of Pole are lyrical dance and Spinny Pole.
Sabi is the perfect person to start your pole journey with.

"I started pole as a way to get an hours exercise a week, but was hooked immediately. It is so much fun and I made great friends. My confidence soared, I love my body for what it can do, not what it looks like."
