Empowerment Through Exotic Dance. Mary Ellen is the owner. I have not taken classes with her, just know her though a bunch of pole forums. I believe she is in Chicago Heights.

Mary Ellen - from what I know of her is an amazing teacher! Safety is priority #1 and she has trained with some of the best in the industry - KT Coates, Jenyne Butterfly and numerous workshops in Jamaica. i have been talking to her for 3 years or so online and she has always been super helpful!!!! I really adore her. a few years a go she was featured on an HBO special too. Here is her website: http://www.empowermentthroughexoticdancing.com
I haven't taken any classes but if you live in Chicago so do I and I'm always down for pole jams 🙂
i'm about an hour south of chicago in bourbonnais. not really hard to get up there. i've got so much going on until after the holidays so maybe after that. sure it would be super fun!!! 😀
One of these weekends (probably in Spring) I am going to get up to Chicago. I am so going to look you girls up!
Mary Ellen is great. I just got back from a week long trip to Jamaica where she was instructing. I definitely recommend her classes.

Hey Chemmy, Mary Ellen posted on VD about the trip. Alethea was there and so was Gravity Plays Favorites!!! I heard it was awesome.
Oh wow...this is awkward/embaressing! 😳 Thank you ladies! I am so happy to see some of you here....And Shelley too!! Hey babe! Shelley danced in Jamaica and I saw her dance in St. Louis though I didn't realize it was her at the time but I remembered her later on when she booked our Jamaica trip because she did such a great job! Jamaica was awesome! We are doing it again next year...just ironing out the details now but will have information soon. It should be from 11/6-11/13 and will have the same feature instructors...possibly one or two more! Shellz...any time you are interested in classes, just call or write. You obviously realize you aren't far from us.
