#79 The Power of the Pole Dance - with Ellice Apostolos

Ellice Apostolos - owner of Santa Cruz's premier pole dancing
studio, Steel and Grace - is back to talk about the art of the
erotic dance, and how we can apply it to sexy time with our lovers.
This interview was recorded immediately after April and Amy took an
advanced S-Factor class, so not only are they all charged up from
the sensual practice, but they also get testimonials from a few
participants, including Badass Boss Mentor Meghan (see info
below).  About Ellice:  Ellice Apostolos empowers every
woman to connect to her body's innate wisdom and pleasure so she
can move through the world in​ her​ fully
expressed radiance. As a certified​ S Factor instructor,
Ellice offers deeply transformative trainings where what begins as
a personal erotic movement practice within the studio walls can
become a sustainable practice that enriches every area of life.
Ellice also guides women entrepreneurs to build the life of their
desires through her online programs. She empowers them to put deep
self-care and pleasure at the heart of their work so they can lead
with their feminine genius, avoiding overwhelm and experience the
success of a lasting and sustainable business.  Ellice holds a
degree in Theatre and Dance with an emphasis on performing arts
from UC Santa Cruz. With an extensive background in dance and
choreography Ellice has been performing for close to
twenty year in the Santa Cruz area. She has choreographed and
directed original pieces for Santa Cruz's annual What is Erotic?
the past three years. This community sourced performance provides
locals with or without a performance background a mentorship
opportunity for discovering what is erotic to them and honing their
performance skills to share their message with the community. One
of Ellice's greatest delights is to support others to discover how
they want to tell their story through their body, whether they want
to perfect that for the stage or develop a personal practice for
authentic expression. With years of exploration in the area of
somatic healing and authentic expression she is excited to be
specializing in the area of sensual movement for women now. In her
S Factor classes, Ellice invites every woman to drop into her
body's truth, eradicating shame and self judgement so she can
unearth her pleasure, confidence and full emotional expression
through dance. As a Board certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant
Ellice adds a layer of body love and self-care through private and
group nutrition education, guiding women to have a healthy thriving
body so they can show up fully for all areas of their life. As
owner of Steel and Grace, Ellice offers a wide variety of
weekly S Factor classes suitable for women with or without dance
experience. Whether you want to pole dance, learn a fun wall
routine, discover your flow with floor work, unearth your
sexy, learn a lap dance or add a strip tease to your play, Ellice
is excited to dance with you! Learn more
