Amber Kegley has danced her whole life, with training across the Pacific Northwest and professional experience that shaped her teaching style: clear technique, creative freedom, and a supportive room.

She studied at Olympic Ballet Theatre, Spectrum Dance Theatre, Cornish College of the Arts, and Ballet Bellevue, then performed with Kansas City Ballet.

After retiring from ballet, she started dancing in clubs as an adult entertainer, and has stayed connected to the pole community ever since through training, performance, etc.

At Seattle Pole Dance, Amber’s approach is beginner-friendly and consent-forward: you’ll learn fundamentals safely, build strength and flow at your pace, and feel welcome exactly as you are. As a longtime Seattle-area resident, she’s passionate about cultivating a studio that’s inclusive, body-positive, and community-led—through events like open pole jams and initiatives that expand representation in pole.
