Pierre
Heault

Instructor – Flexibility and Contortion
Originally from Saguenay, Pierre Heault or Pierrot (Pierre-Luc Houde), became interested in stage performance at a very young age. Passionate about music and dance, from adolescence his interests converged towards a vocation: the circus. At age 15, he was admitted to the prestigious École nationale de cirque de Montréal. After exploring many disciplines including contortion, balances and fixed aerials, Pierrot began learning the flying rope and obtained his diploma in 2007. After several contracts abroad, he returned to Montreal to study the swinging trapeze with Victor Fomin, trainer at Cirque du Soleil. Together they created a number which will be presented at the Éloize circus, on television and in a major European cabaret. Showing a great interest in teaching, Pierrot teaches flexibility and contortion at POLE FITNESS.

Virginie
Rougeau

Instructor – cardiomusculation & pole
Virginie has had her feet in the artistic field since the age of 4. Starting out in gymnastics and classical piano, she later delved into modern dance, hip-hop and jazz, before training in musical theater. It was also at this time that she put on her first tap shoes, which she has still not taken off since that time. Wanting to try something new again and looking to acquire more physical strength without having to rely on the gym, she started practicing pole fitness/pole dancing in 2009. She participated in the organization of the show for 4 years of pole dance Extrapolated, also occasionally putting on the role of host and choreographer. Since 2014, she has been giving cardio and pole classes, adding her personal touch that comes from modern dance.
