What Kind of Women Do I Shape? - Yekaterina Rekap

I’ve been working as a pole dance trainer since 2012. And throughout these years, I’ve been looking for that right source of inspiration and energy exchange. In simple terms — how do you keep your fire burning when you’re constantly surrounded by people?

At some point, I asked myself a deep and honest question: What kind of women do I shape?

Each of them once walked through my door for the very first time. She felt shy wearing shorts, uncomfortable looking in the mirror, and awkward holding a pole — the one people love to compare to male anatomy 🙃She hesitated to wear sexy clothes to class (let alone the huge heels she would NEVER wear — yeah, right 😂) She was scared to tell her friends or family she started pole dancing. What would they think — that she’s a stripper? Shame. Embarrassment.(Which, by the way, turns out to be a compliment in the end 😉)

Extra weight. Skin insecurities. Mental blocks. Many of you probably recognize yourselves here.

For 8 years, I’ve been helping women transform — through a beautiful, bold kind of movement, through honesty, through finding the right way to reach each person.

So…What kind of women emerge after this journey?

The Physical Side:

1. They become strong and toned

2. Their bodies move with confidence and fluidity

3. Their figures change, and they feel powerful

4. Their health and endurance improve

But more importantly — the Soul Evolves:

5. They look in the mirror with fire in their eyes

6. Their wardrobe gets bolder

7. There’s a spark inside them you just can’t miss

8. Self-confidence starts to bloom

9. Fear of trying new things disappears

10. They stop counting their biological age

11. And other people’s opinions? No longer relevant

I used to wait for thank-you messages and emotional words. But now I realize — some transformations are too deep for words.

So I remind myself who you were at the beginning. And who I was.

And nothing makes me happier than watching you become the QUEEN of your own life. 👸🔥🦊

With love, Yekaterina Rekap
