This extensive training will cover everything you need to know to become a world-class pole teacher and coach capable of handling the Beginners level. You will get all the knowledge, resources and tools to develop or refine your skills so you can effectively and safely lead your (future) students towards the next level of their pole journey.

If you are eager to spread your love and passion for pole to as many people as possible and have at least an intermediate level yourself, this quality training is for you!

 
 

Topics covered:


Day 1

  • Building a proper warm-up routine

  • The main focus of the Beginners level

  • Class structure & lesson planning

  • Common struggles & injuries

  • Tricks & explanations (part 1)

Day 2

  • Specific conditioning for beginners

  • The requirements for the next level

  • Spotting techniques with Beginners

  • Authority & communication

  • Tricks & explanations (part 2)

 

On both days, we start with the theory for the first half of the day (10h-13h30), followed by a lunch break. In the afternoon (14h-18h), we move on to the technical part of the training, and review over 100 tricks and transitions over the two days. Not only will you know how to teach all the moves appropriate for the Beginners level, but Jessica also systematically shares the common mistakes that students will make so you can easily spot how to correct them effectively!

This bonus allows you to understand what awaits your beginners students after the Pole Beginners level, so you can better prepare them for what’s next.

Moreover, you’ll be able to spot weaknesses early on & prepare them gradually.

 

About your instructor - Jessica Nielsen

In April of 2012, I took my very first pole dancing class and literally fell in love doing my first step around, pirouettes and fireman spins. Even though I have a background in gymnastics and hip-hop dancing, the struggle was real in the beginning, and strength moves were definitely not my thing. Despite several injuries, I had a strong desire to keep progressing, so I started educating myself and got coached by professionals to understand my body better.

I started teaching in 2015, and opened my very own studio in 2020. To this day, I have taught over 1800 pole classes and learnt from over 40 (and counting) renowned international teachers. I’ve compiled everything I learned over the years into my very own Pole Teachers Training, which currently has three levels: Beginners, Pre-Intermediate and Intermediate - as well as a specific extra module for Exotic Pole teaching.

This training was previously organized in 2023, 2024 and 2025. Most teachers at The Pole Temple attended it: Ruby, Yuliya, Inne, Romy, Anna, Charlotte, Silke, Shana and others.
