Some know her as Alesha, others know her as Cherry Boomb, a.k.a. The Spirit of Napier. Alesha spent her entire childhood as a gymnast and dancer, gaining her qualifications as a modern dance teacher. She first dabbled in aerials in 2010, and has since tried every aerial apparatus you can imagine! In 2015 she took home the crown of Miss Burlesque NZ, and now spends her days spinning on her trapeze and performing burlesque and aerials all over the country.
JAIMEE
INSTRUCTOR
With a gymnastic background from a young age Jaimee was inspired to try pole dancing for the very first time 12 years ago. She quickly found passion and joy for all things aerial, trying out hoop, silks and aerial yoga. Jaimee now spends most of her time on the silks and hoop, performing occasionally with the aim to inspire. The aerial community is so welcoming, giving positive support, confidence building, encouragement and fun to everyone who joins. Jaimee would love nothing more than to give that same fun, positive, confidence building experience back to her students.
RENEE
INSTRUCTOR
Once a friend enticed her in, Renee has never looked back. She fell in love with the world of aerials and hasn’t left since starting her pole journey in 2018. With a background in performance and musical theatre Renee took to aerials like a duck to water. It was another awesome skill for her to have under her belt and wow, she felt beautiful doing it. In early 2020 Renee became an instructor at Altitude Pole Onehunga teaching pole, stretch and aerial hammock. She can’t wait to be teaching all the lovely aerial enthusiasts in the Hawkes Bay!
MEGAN
INSTRUCTOR
Megan is our resident Daredevil! With a background of gymnastics and rock-climbing, this woman is just made for the Silks! She fell in love with the movement and flow of silks from the get go and haven’t looked back! She describes the satisfaction from learning a move to executing it is immeasurable #goals
Megan is a natural teacher, she has amazing knowledge of intricate wrapping techniques and explains them so well. Megan is also part of @theboombfunkvariety as Pagey, showing her her killer drops at local variety shows.
