Who doesn’t love a cookie?! So why not have one for breakfast?!
This yummy, but healthy, breakfast cookie lets your inner child jump up & down while keeping your adult minded waistline in check! The best part is you make it the night before and leave it in the fridge overnight so all you need to do is wake up, open the fridge and enjoy!
There are plenty of good reasons to include some kind of weight training in your fitness regime, but what’s in it for you? More than you think! Strength
Being physically active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is one of the most important ways to live a longer, more enjoyable life. Regular exercise, even if it’s incidental, has been proven time and again to provide positive benefits to both your physical & mental well-being. Not only do you feel good, look good, and have more confidence, but regular exercise can actively help SLOW DOWN the ageing process on a cellular level, keeping you looking and feeling younger for longer.
So you’ve reached the end of another awesome term at Pole Athletica. Congratulations! Now comes the important decision: will you be repeating the same class next term, or are you ready to progress a level? It’s a question frequently asked by students reaching the end of term. Whilst some students might be content with making slower progress, others might feel compelled to keep up with their peers who seem to be accelerating through the program.
Having good lines and a perfect ‘spready’ is something every aspiring pole dancer wants! In this tutorial, Pole Athletica instructor Danny will take you through his favourite flexibility and core strength exercises as well as some hot tips.
If you're new to stretch, it can be quite daunting not knowing where or how to begin but we've made it super easy for you to get started with our Top 10 stretches for Beginners.
With winter well under way, it's tempting to reach for a rich and creamy soup to fill you up. Unfortunately, most of the time these soups are also filled with fatty ingredients that leave you feeling heavy and lethargic for hours afterwards.
We have the solution! This fabulous and healthy recipe (courtesy of Kim McCosker of 4 Ingredients fame) is the PERFECT alternative.
4 Simple ingredients, easy to throw together, and vegetarian to boot, this soup is a delicious and filling meal during the colder months.
What better way to have your cake (and eat it too) than this healthy but very decadent Chocolate Mug Cake recipe?
This is one of Jen's favourite recipes and she swears by it during the colder winter months to keep her feeling full and satisfied during busy days at the studio.
Packed with protein, healthy fats, and other nutrients, this mug cake is so much better for you than grabbing a muffin on your way to work.
Go and grab your nearest mug and get ready to bake!

We had the great pleasure of hosting the Magnifique Marion Crampe at Studio Verve on Thursday 3 March for a night of workshops.
In the LaCrampe Signature Tricks workshop Marion took our advanced students through some truly amazing skills (including the Rainbow Marchenko) as well as unique and challenging transitions on the pole.
Twist Your Body really pushed our students to the limit of what they thought possible in terms of their own flexibility. Marion was quite impressed with our students who have since been implementing her drills and exercises to great effect.
We LOVE celebrating birthdays at Studio Verve!
So when Jen heard that it was one of our Instructors birthdays a few Saturdays ago she knew it was the perfect opportunity to try out this recipe for a Sugar Free Berry Cheesecake. Adapted by Jen from the I Quit Sugar cookbook, this cheesecake tastes as good as it looks (which is pretty fantastic!).
2 cups pecans
1/4 cup cacao powder
