Divas.Ed was an absolutely incredible experience and a great way to prepare me as an instructor. The entire team was so supportive, not only through the sessions, but throughout the entire program and beyond. I fell in love with pole many years ago and could always see myself moving towards instructing, and Divas.Ed was the perfect way to prepare me for that move. From learning about anatomy, to breaking down each trick and learning how to create the fun and supportive environment we all love at Pole Divas, Divas.Ed covered it all. It also gave me the opportunity to meet so many other students from the Divas community and beyond. The program really prepared me for the world of instructing, and I couldn’t be more thankful to Lou and the team for all their help, guidance and support. I highly recommend Divas.Ed to anyone who is thinking of becoming an instructor or just want to work on their own personal development.

The course offers passionate and knowledgeable trainers who have an extensive amount of coaching and training experience to in-still in future generations of pole instructors. I felt very nurtured, reassured and supported before, during and after the course, which gave me the confidence to put my skills learnt into practice. I felt extremely lucky to be trained by some of the best pole dancers in the world! I can't wait to share my passion for pole fitness with all my brand new beginners! Thank you to the whole team at Divas Ed.

I started studying Divas.Ed at the start of January 2024 and I am absolutely stunned at how much I have transformed in 6 months. Every part of the course from the pre-learning and training modules to the assignments and placement, it felt like a big opportunity to learn, grow, and challenge myself. Believe it or not (even as a professional dancer), I consider myself introverted at times and with the help of my course instructors, I was able to not only break out of my shell but find the right teaching style for me. I felt seen and heard regardless of having a full class in my course intake. Overall, I have expanded my skillset and gained comprehensive knowledge from incredible instructors who I felt, genuinely cared about my success. I highly recommend Divas.Ed, it's a great stepping stone and removes the gap between the person you are to the teacher you want to be.

With Divas Ed I learned such high-quality, relevant and up-to-date content for beginner and inter prep levels of Pole. They really go through it all- from learning about the industry, to warm ups and cool downs to anatomy and conditioning, to dancing and of course, the tricks! The instructors had an incredible wealth of knowledge and I felt very grateful to be learning from some of the best pole dancers in the business. Divas Ed developed my confidence to get up at the front of the room, and developed my knowledge of tricks, in every technical detail. I enjoyed every hard-working minute of Divas Ed, the vibes in the room while everyone was practicing were so supportive and encouraging! My teaching ability has grown exponentially through this course, so much so, that it has landed me my dream job at Pole Divas. This course has allowed my dreams to become reality as I partake a new journey at Pole Divas as an instructor, and I can’t wait to share my love and passion with my students.

Completing Divas Ed has been nothing short of transformative for me. The curriculum was comprehensive, covering everything from safety to technique to conditioning and more, ensuring that I am fully equipped to lead with confidence and inspire my students. The instructors who taught us were passionate, educated and dedicated to nurturing each of us. I now feel empowered to create meaningful experiences for my students, fostering a supportive environment where everyone can thrive. I highly recommend completing Divas Ed. It’s not just a certification; it’s a stepping stone to a fulfilling career that celebrates strength, grace and self-expression. Thank you Divas Ed

Undertaking Divas.Ed was one of the best decisions I've ever made! The comprehensive curriculum and content is educative, easy to follow, interesting and most importantly, fun. I learned a diverse range of pole moves, conditioning exercises, class planning techniques, and dance styles to guide my teaching journey. Every in-person session was an opportunity to learn, grow, and challenge ourselves. The head instructors’ passion was palpable, and their dedication to nurturing each participant's strengths was remarkable. Divas.Ed has not only developed my teaching abilities helping me land my dream job at Pole Divas, but has also enriched my relationship with pole dance, making it an integral part of who I am and what I want to be.
