In this episode of the Fitness Circus Podcast, I interviewed OG pole star and industry legend Justine McLucas about when it's appropriate to start teaching a handspring, what the difference between intermediate, advanced and elite level poling is, and how we can keep our students safe and minimise thier risk of injury when they're training with us.

In this episode of the Fitness Circus Podcast, I discuss some of the common issues I see in the recreational pole and aerial industries that I believe contribute negatively to the incredibly high injury rates in pole and aerial students. I discuss instructor training, scope of practice, and why I don't think beginner classes should be taught by inexperienced instructors.

In this episode of the Fitness Circus Podcast, I discuss what my perfect curriculum and class structure could look like for aerial and pole studios, with a particular focus on a widely accepted theory in the world of exercise psychology - Achievement Goal Theory. I discuss WHY my ideal curriculum and class structure might better suit the psychological needs of the students than the existing term-based, graded class structure, while acknowledging that it would require a complete business model overhaul for most studios to adopt this system.
