Bex

Bex, Pole Performance

Bex (@cipralexx_) has been dancing and performing onstage for longer than s/he can even remember. A former professional ballerina turned "midnight ballerina," Bex discovered pole dancing after leaving the ballet world in 2019 and auditioning for a strip club in Nashville, TN, where his "stage princess" persona was lovingly cultivated. Now, almost 7 years later, s/he pays his bills by doing scary pretzel-y (still totally sexy) shit 10 feet in the air -- and teaching everyone else how to do it, too. You can catch him teaching pole and flexibility classes at Figtree Pole, the Pole Palace, and online. <3Venmo: @cipralexx_
