I ams a Ukrainian exotic dancer. I started pole dancing when I was about to graduate from Medical University in 2015.

In the first 6 months of my training, I injured both of my shoulders which lead me to switch to exotic dance. I was fascinated by exotic dance but there was nobody in my city teaching it and there were no online tutorials at that time.

I decided to learn exotic dance by watching videos of popular exotic dancers. I downloaded, cut, slowed down my favorite exotic routines and tried to replicate them. It was really hard for me to learn this way so I decided to come into my pole studio, turned on music, set down on the floor, and started to make leg waves. I was experimenting for hours and finally, I realized the type of movement I wanted to do.

After scratching my back all over with my heels for two years I decided to cut them off. After a month of experimenting, I started to love the new look and feel. Now, pole shoes without heels are getting popular across the world, thanks to me 🙂 I did not have any dance background before pole dance. I worked hard to develop my flexibility & strength. I created me unique line of dance clothing “Yurchak Dance Wear”.

I 2022 I moved to NYC to follow my American dream.
