I’ve been seeing this trend on TikTok about meeting your younger self for coffee, and it made me reflect on how much I have changed. If I had to look back and compare, the difference between who I was then and who I am now is staggering.
At Dream Dance Fitness, we see this transformation in so many of our students. They walk through the door unsure, maybe even intimidated, but they leave feeling empowered, strong, and capable. Pole isn’t just about tricks or technique—it’s about embracing yourself fully, letting go of self-doubt, and finding freedom in movement…well, that’s what it’s about at our studio.
If I could tell my younger self anything, it would be this: Keep going, don’t take shortcuts. You’ll find your power in places you never expected. You’ll learn that failure isn’t an ending but a lesson. You’ll lose things along the way—friendships, fears, versions of yourself you thought you needed—but each loss will make room for something greater. And pole? It will become more than just movement. It will be a source of liberation, confidence, and community.
I may not have everything figured out even now, but I know this much—who I am today is someone my younger self would have looked up to. And that’s enough.
If you’re ready to start your own journey, Dream Dance Fitness is here to support you. Join us and discover just how strong, powerful, and fearless you can be.
With love and gratitude,
