Hanna is a San Francisco-based instructor whose pole experience started in 2015. A former trickster and power poler, Hanna competed and placed in various competitions that took her not just all over the country, but internationally as well, from Mexico City to Seoul, South Korea. She began teaching at VRV3 in February 2020, shortly before the COVID lockdown. With a home pole and a low ceiling height, Hanna used the pandemic time to focus on her low flow heels practice, learning virtually from the greats, developing her own style, and eventually teaching virtual classes for VRV3 in 2020-2021.

Nowadays, Hanna is a low flow trickster. She loves heels technique and her conditioning will make your ankles and calves burn in the best way. Hanna pairs flowy movements and long leg lines with cartwheels, kips, and handstand flips at the base of the pole, and teaches her students not just how to do the tricks, but how to make those movements their own and look the best for them. 

You’ll find Hanna at VRV3, most often teaching choreo and heels technique but occasionally subbing advanced trick classes, where her favorite tricks to teach are reverse grabs, deadlifts, and cheba splits. And every once in a while, you can catch Hanna teaching her favorite middle and straddle splits in Flexibility or Lyra as well!
