Bendy Kate is one of the highest level pole dancers & instructors in the UK. Her real name is Kate Czepulkowski, she was given the nickname ‘Bendy’ in 2010 when she started pole in Bristol. No one could pronounce her Polish surname and she was pretty flexible so ‘Bendy’ it was! Since then Bendy has won the UK Pole Championships 3 years running and became WORLD POLE CHAMPION in 2014! She has travelled the world teaching Pole Dancing  masterclasses and performing. Travelling to and teaching at thousands of pole studios around the world contributed to Bendy’s choices in how to make the BEST pole studio! Bendy really understands the requirements of pole & what it takes to compete. 

Don’t be fooled she is not just a pole dancer….

Bendy is also a high level aerialist, acrobat and hand balancer. She is a feminist,  and now also a Mum to little Esme, our studio mascot. 

Not only does Bendy have some reputable achievements on paper, pole & aerial also helped her overcome an eating disorder in her early 20s (which very nearly killed her). She knew that to be a positive role model, something had to change and that was her attitude towards food and her body.
