Opal Kale is a pole dancer and spin pole enthusiast who draws inspiration from ethereal music and fluid movement. Her pole journey began over a decade ago when she stumbled into a pole studio in Berkeley with zero experience in movement and never looked back.

In addition to that, she's been crosstraining in contortion and hand balancing for over 5 years, with the goal of becoming a more well-rounded athlete. Opal is also certified by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) in group fitness training and currently teaches at VRV3 Studios in San Francisco.
