About Us
Founded in 2015 by Alex Urbano
A note from the founder:
"Since a very young age, dance and self expression through the performing arts have been my love language. Building community and exploring wellness through holistic living have been the supporting foundations. What I believe we need most right now is a chance to be seen for all we are, in spaces that allow freedom to dive into our greatest potential. Lets ignite the creative spirit!"

Our Story
Our founder, Alex Urbano, created Vertika Pole Studio, with a desire to help passionate artists connect to their intuitive flow so they could expand their radiance and step into their authentic power. She has always approached her work through the art of transforming limited beliefs into a purpose for sharing your movement story with the world. Movement is medicine for the soul.
In 2015, two young women with multidisciplinary passions in the arts and dance bore the idea to open Vertika. They grew into an empowering space where learning pole dancing, participating in student showcases, and hosting parties and events all took place.
Along the way, we learned to always grow with our clients, meet them where they are, and give them the support to blossom freely. With almost 11 years of teaching experience, backed with previous years of private teaching and coaching, current owner Alex kept the love of pole dance alive and well in Windsor Essex at a new location.
Vertika currently offers group classes as drop-ins or pre-paid sessions that range from beginner to higher level and some great more dance choreography. We love doing seasonal workshops and also have continued to host parties in studio and where we travel to you!
They have transformed our current location to the SPACE collective arts studio, where we are happy to have some other artists and instructors offering their classes.
Welcome Radiant one to our pole home, we invite you to explore the world of pole through our new offers and classes.
