Poler Ice Fitness's co-owners and friends, Carrie and Renee, originally met while they were still members of the corporate legal field. After feeling like her fitness regimen of running while shouting was growing stale, Carrie began to explore other options with her first pole fitness class. She was instantly hooked not only by how the practice challenged her physically, but also by how it ballooned her self-confidence. With the strong desire to spread this feeling, Carrie obtained her instructor certification and began teaching while encouraging others—including Renee—to give the workout a spin. Today, the duo inspires women of all shapes and sizes to appreciate their bodies with a workout regimen that is as joyous as it is physically and emotionally empowering.
