I am
excited to introduce to the corner, Travis Hornsby, our first male Pole Athlete.
Travis is passionate about performance art and poetry, at the tender age of 18 he plays the (unfortunate) role of the sex-crazed Boggo in the Spud series.
What made him consider a pole class? " A love of art, a hatred of gym and a stubborn belly" was the reply.
Travis attends Vertical Vixen, Linksfield in Johannesburg, South Africa and has been a pole student for 18 months now, with no previous gymnastic or dance history.
The year-end showcase that Vertical Vixen hosts was one of his first events, apparently a night of nerves and plenty of empty bottles of Dry-Hands.
Motivation and inspiration is provided by his teacher, Alicja Gralewska, his awesome classmates and Derick Pierson.

One of his favourite moves is the Rainbow Marchenko and the move he loves to perform is the Janeiro.
When asked what his pole goal is for 2014 the reply I received was very colourful.
"The Cocoon, I'm one step away from becoming a kick-ass butterfly"
