Xpole Athlete, AFAA Certified Group Exercise Instructor, Xpert Pole Fitness Trainer, professional dancer, choreographer, pole historian and twerk technician. I am known as FiyaStarta – named for my burning desire to turn everyday women into “Pole-a-holics” and for my being “fire/hot” on the pole. I am the owner of Vertical Joe’s Fitness Studio Atlanta’s largest facility for fitness for women, the creative director of The Sexy Circus Artistic Pole Dance Production and the first to bring the Pole Championship Series to Georgia.
