Pole Place Glasgow

pole place glasgow

Glasgow

In the Winter of 2014, Pole Place opened its first studio just South of London in West Sussex. A second studio followed shortly after north of the border in the heart of Glasgow’s city centre. Founded by Ruby Rose Jackson in her hometown of Horsham, Pole Place’s original home was on the second floor of a popular bar on Piries Place - B52’s. Ruby had long dreamt of opening her own Pole studio having become hooked years earlier. Qualifying as an instructor, and with an ever-growing Pole skillset combined with a natural passion for teaching and inspiring those around her the initial idea of Pole Place was firmly at the visionary stage. Like any new business, funding was required to move it from the ideas stage to cutting the ribbon. With the studio as the inspiration Ruby began to fly as cabin crew with British Airways. Without revealing the un-glamorous side to air travel, on many random nights in many random places, hotel rooms all around the world became Ruby’s office - any spare minute she could find would go into business planning, designing, developing and creating her dream - Pole Place. Her dedication eventually paid off and she was able to leave her full-time post flying to finally open Pole Place’s studio doors. Pole Place initially began with a handful of clients. Steadily growing within the first couple of years, the Horsham studio later moved into our larger, current home on Church Street in Warnham. In 2016, a change in Ruby’s personal life presented her with a family move to Scotland. This gave way for an ideal opportunity to open a Pole Place sister venue on West Nile Street in Glasgow’s city centre which provides our Scottish “hame”! At Pole Place, we are extremely proud to have created a safe space for anyone to come and step out of their comfort zone and into an exciting new world. Where hair is flicked, confidence is boosted and dreams are made. Growing over the years, we have had the pleasure of teaching thousands of clients across both our studios. With nine instructors within our team, we are honoured to provide support and inspiration to all of our clients. From teaching the basics to mastering tricks, giving new skills, confidence and empowering one another. You can be anyone you want to be in the studio with zero judgement and only encouragement from all of the Pole Place Family.

My name is Vanisha Mistry. I am a Performer, Vocal Improv Artist, Songwriter and Expression Coach. I work with Sound and Energy Healing and share my talents in the Creative Arts. I strive to work in a way that creates a bridge between the modern day mainstream and the more alternative worlds. I have always been a creative. And since a young age I have had a deep connection with nature and the wider sense of the world. In recent years I have come to discover the deep connection between art and spirituality, and the crossover between these worlds. I take inspiration from the ancient practise of Shamanism, which draw great wisdom from the energies of the earth and embodied practises; in our modern day much of this medicine is lost. However the Arts, whether dance, music or painting, do touch on this deeper connection to something beyond ourselves, and I believe this need for artistic Self-Expression is in-fact a tapping into this ancient medicine and a grand creative force - That which makes our reality exist. In all my work I strive to uncover this deep creative essence in each individual. I am professionally trained as a Landscape Architect, qualifying in 2015. My work in this profession didn't sit with me and my mental health took a hit, as is common with many office based Creatives. After this, I promised myself that I would not submit myself to mindless work, but discover a truly sustainable way of living. After several years of travel, exploration and studies, I have now transitioned into the practise of Sound Therapy and Vocal Coaching. My travels took me through Europe, to the Spanish Canary Islands, Australia, South East Asia and India. In each of these places I found that it was the Music and the Natural environment that brought me alive, however my background in Music was little to none. In 2017 a knee injury took me away from dancing and into the path of singing. From close to no experience, I quickly found this my natural talent. I was on stage performing within 1 year and improvising live sets with various artists after 2 years. My exploration of Yoga and Sound Healing developed profoundly in India where I finally understood the link between sound vibration and the body and was able to apply it myself to my own healing practise. This long journey has lead me to Today, where I am a Singer/Song-writer, Vocal Empowerment Coach, Sound Healer and Performer. I am currently studying Music Therapy to be certified as a recognised Music Therapist. Life has transformed quickly because I followed my true voice and my deeper creative calling. Now, I strive to share this process with as many people as possible; and unlocking the power of the voice is the first step to this freedom. I am on a mission now to spread this work further, and to build creative communities; this means working with more people, further a field. I aim to connect wider networks to work intuitively with energy of the body, engaging the Voice, Breath and Movement so that more of us can sit truly in our most authentic Self-Expression. I am a firm believer in joyful practises paving the way towards a more sustainable, meaningful and wholesome way of living - and together we will create a more meaningful, fair and joyful world.

St Hild College

We draw our inspiration from the first Christians to share the gospel in Britain and especially St Hild, a trailblazing example of prayer, wisdom and witness (c. 614-680AD). Our college life is geared to help people listen for the Spirit and join the work of the kingdom in their own contexts. We have an expansive view of mission that constantly enlarges our horizons. For us, this means helping to make disciples, grow and plant churches, raise new ministries, pursue transformative justice and seek the flourishing of all creation. PRAYER AND FORMATION We want to help every member of our community grow deep spiritual roots. Our aim is to be like Jesus, becoming disciples in every aspect of our lives as we share the life of God. At the heart of this is prayer. We believe in combining study, service and a deepening life with God, but we recognise that this isn’t easy. Our tutors know what it is like to face the challenges of ministry. We are committed to supporting Christian work that is hopeful, sustainable and fruitful. Formation in Christ is always costly and often surprising; it brings to light our weaknesses. We want to remain open to the profound re-making that comes when we step out on untrodden paths and learn to rely more on the grace of God. FLEXIBLE LEARNING We have an excellent track record for flexible learning. Each of our students has an individual learning pathway put together specifically for their needs. Our learning community is wonderfully diverse – our best learning is often from each other. We work with those new to academic study to build their confidence; we can also provide stretching further study for those looking to teach, write or develop original research. Our teaching faculty have subject specialisms at research and publication level in Biblical Studies, Doctrine, Spirituality, Ethics, Pastoral Care, Leadership and Mission. We are committed to rigorous academic study that deepens and enriches faith. GROWING COMMUNITY We are our students. We unite Anglicans, Baptists and Independent church members in a partnership run in the North, for the North. We bring together a diverse and hospitable community to learn in face to face settings framed by prayer and worship. Our Barnabas Teaching Centre meets on Monday daytimes at STC Sheffield. This includes a monthly Missional Leadership programme of expert speakers on spirituality and leadership followed by Formation Groups that reflect and grow together through the year. Our Mirfield Teaching Centre meets on Wednesday evenings at Mirfield, with access to a beautiful site for study and prayer alongside the Community of the Resurrection. Mirfield also hosts regular events to resource holistic mission in context Deeper Roots, Wider Horizons “The vision of our college is to help you grow deeper roots in Christ and expand your capacity to join God’s work. I believe every member of St Hild is a light that God is sending to our region. Our aim is to equip people for that calling through transformative community life, excellent theological learning and a contagious passion for the kingdom. People often say that coming to visit St Hild helps them view their future more clearly. I hope you’ll take up this invitation to see us for yourself. If you accept a place, we believe you will finish your time with us better able to follow God’s call, wherever that may take you.” Mark Powley, St Hild College Principal
