Nancy Mayer
President and Pole Fitness Instructor

What I found was a life changing experience. In the process... read more
Jeanine Benjamin
Pole Fitness Instructor/Party Presenter
Hello Gorgeous Women! Well, where do I begin…I am conservative, never a dancer and more of a caretaker. I am 45 and the mother of two awesome girls. I love to work out and have tried many forms of exercise from cardio kickboxing to yoga. Nothing has captured my attention the way Siren Power Flow has done. It all began at the prodding of friends to take... read more
Christine Bonn
Pole Fitness Instructor
I want to exercise, really I do, but I hate the gym. I would walk in and feel like I was 13-years-old all over again, entering gym class at school with all those insecurities and vulnerabilities. I couldn’t stick with it. Then a friend (with the encouragement of my husband) talked me into taking a pole dancing class. The class began and within minutes, for the first time in a long time, I felt good... read more
Crystal Chen
Pole Fitness Instructor
When I started training at Siren in spring of 2007 I was desperate for a little spice in my workout. Having explored a lot of forms of dance, including belly, ballroom, and latin, I thought it was time to take another form, exotic. I was excited when I discovered it wasn't just dancing, which is still my favorite part, but an amazing workout too. The challenge of integrating tricks on the pole with dancing and... read more

Katie Kaufmann
Pole Fitness Instructor
    I am a South Bay native, an independent local in real estate and business sales. I'm into science and art  and motorcycles. I came to this form of fitness having found most fitness activities either tedious and boring, or fun and dangerous. I came to Siren having completed another pole program and found that the strength conditioning intrinsic to Siren's The Power Within method gave results that not only kept me from needing chiropractor visits,... read more

Lira Vaughn
Pole Fitness Instructor/Resident Booty Popper
I have been studying dance, flexibility, and movement since my first ballet class at 12 years old.  For a long time, I couldn't seem to decide which kind of movement I loved best, but after explorations into Ballet, Jazz, Tap, multiple martial arts, as well as acupressure and shiatsu massage training, I discovered and fell in love with Sensual Movement, Pole Dancing and Yoga.  In 2004, I quickly realized that teaching sensual dance with a... read more
