Jo Ngan

A first-generation Chinese, southern California native, Jo's only dance background before discovering pole at 28 years old involved late nights at LA clubs, gyrating to 90's hip hop and R&B. Electrified by the freedom, sensuality and discipline of pole dance, Jo was asked to become an instructor six months after her first beginner class. Now, over a decade later, Jo has taught classes, workshops and privates at multiple studios, while continuing to evolve and refine her own movement practice. She has enriched her talents over the years by training under renowned movers and facilitators, including Tracee Kafer of 'Finding Your Freestyle' and Marlo Fisken of 'Flow Movement'. When Jo is not creating choreography for her bi-weekly 'Flow Motion' class at Sadie's, she is managing a design team as an Associate Creative Director of a digital agency, as well as running Haven—LA's first exclusively rental pole studio. And when she's not busy doing any of those things, you can find her at the beach playing fetch with her adorable yet temperamental rescue chihuahua mix!
