Mary Ellyn is a 52 year old mother of two. Married to her husband Jim since
2000, together they own a tax, accounting and financial services company.
She had not worked as an exotic dancer but began pole dancing for her own
enjoyment in 2002 before pole dancing became all the rage on television and
in the fitness world.
She started by giving private lessons and hosting home parties. Having no resources in the Chicago area at the time, and through painstaking dedication, she learned the art of pole dancing without the benefit of a live instructor or classroom. Since then she has
dedicated her time to networking and traveling to train regularly with
master level instructors and has received her master trainer certification
in pole dancing. Mary Ellyn has also developed Chicago's first pole dance instructor certification program, using safe and correct techniques based on industry standards in fitness and pole dancing. She has been featured in Time Out Chicago Magazine , The Chicago Sun Times, The Daily Southtown, The Chicago Tribune and the Tribune Redeye, has appeared on WCKG radio and on "Sexual Healing" with Dr. Laura Berman on the Showtime Network. |
