Brandi started pole dancing in 2011. She fell in love with the sport and began taking classes after an injury she got from teaching herself. Brandi excels at flexibility on and off the pole, enjoys flowing tricks together, and thinks there’s nothing quite like a simple graceful spin.
Xavier Darling is from New Braunfels, Texas. He moved to Austin in 1999 and followed his heart to Portland in 2005. He has studied Hatha, Kundalini and Kriya Yoga since 2005. He received a certificate for Hatha Yoga Teacher Training by Diane Wilson in 2006 and Sat Guru Initiation Training the following year. With a foundation in Folklorico, Ballet, Blues, Cumbia, Lindy Hop, Collegiate Shag and Flow Movement, he enjoys many different techniques and is inspired by all forms of dance. In 2013 he was introduced to pole dance and there was an instant connection. Soon after, he began attending Brassy Butterfly and has since trained with other pole professionals. He enjoys dancing with a no-force, light-as-a-feather attitude and style. On and off the pole, in and out of the studio, I work to move with awareness and connection. He is continuously training in movement and meditation.
