Meet Lerri

I’ve been teaching for over 5 years, developing my style and refining an approach that truly works. Improvisation is the golden rule—it helps dancers express their individuality. I’m a certified flexibility coach and a championship medalist. My focus is on the details that make training effective, and nothing inspires me more than seeing students progress with curiosity and confidence.

A dancer of 10+ years and proud Gemini, my style shifts from sweet fairy to sultry Medusa. Since discovering pole in 2022, I’ve fused storytelling with movement, heels, and music. A certified Inside Flow instructor and artist at heart, I find balance on the yoga mat and joy with my fur babies. 🤟🏼

I listen to Christmas jazz year-round and take dark showers at night. Morning person, grumpy by evening. There’s always Lindor in my fridge. I read movie synopses before watching, love rom-coms, and never met a Denzel film I didn’t like.

When I dance alone, it’s to mom music or nu metal. I play in a band called Breakfast Tacos and love gardening. I get way too excited picking my yearly wall calendar, and I always book flights for the best sunrise or sunset view.

I have a Ph.D. in Chemistry and French-Armenian roots. Peanut butter is my favorite food. I’ve logged 200+ flight hours on NASA missions and love rock climbing, roller skating, and gaming. Currently making my way through every classic I once Sparknoted.

grew up dancing ballet, jazz, and tap—traded my pointe shoes for Pleasers 😜. I love dinner for breakfast, make killer playlists, and brush after every meal. Action movies are my fave, but I’m still scared of the dark.

Pharmacist by day, poler by night. I’m obsessed with Japan—been three times and can’t wait to go back. I love spin pole (even if it makes me nauseous), hot pot, and karaoke. My cat, Murph, is named after Interstellar, and I’ve played classical piano since I was six—it often inspires my pole routines.

Lyra instructor, acroyoga lover, rock climber, and silks enthusiast. Originally from the island of Guam, I’m the founder of Queer Polers Collective and a proud single mom of two amazing daughters.

I started my pole journey in 2014, soon after moving to California, looking for a fun new way to get fit. I had no background in dance, gymnastics, or flexibility—just some casual hot yoga—but I quickly fell in love with pole and the community. I’ve competed in three PSO events in 2016 and 2018, and now my focus is helping students get stronger and level up their skills.

I have 17+ years of pole experience, influenced by strength training, martial arts, dance, parkour, pilates, and gyrotonic. I specialize in anatomical technique and helping students explore freestyle movement. My mantra: teaching is the art of assisting discovery. I’m also a NASM-certified personal trainer, foodie, and music lover.
