At Happy Kiss Pole, we believe in the transformative power of movement. What began as a dream in 2014, blossomed into a haven for self-expression, exploration, and empowerment. Nestled in the heart of Gainesville, FL our studio started in the spare bedroom of our founder's home. From those humble beginnings, we've grown into a vibrant community dedicated to celebrating everyone who steps into our space through the art of pole dance.
Founded by Johanna Monserratte, Happy Kiss Pole Dance was born out of a passion for movement and a desire to create a space where everyone feels welcome. Inspired by the liberating and sensual aspects of pole dance, our studio embodies the values of haven, play, and voice. These principles guide everything we do, from our classes to our community events. Happy Kiss Pole Dance, 501 NW 23 Ave, Suite B, Gainesville, 32609.
