Wendy Traskos

Teaches at MJCCA

Wendy Traskos first gained national attention in the 90’s by competing and winning several Fitness America Pageants. Her passion for health and fitness blossomed into a very successful career in the Professional Training industry. An impressive list of clients including Montel Williams, Mary J. Blidge and Mya have made her New York’s “girl” for obtaining star studded looks. Wendy’s goal is to help her clientele look and feel better than ever while giving them a great great workout. 

Wendy began pole dancing while working at various strip clubs in the city. She always marveled at the artistic yet powerful presence that pole dancers commanded from their audience. After trying it for the first time, she became hooked. She soon realized that it not only challenged her rhythm and coordination, but it was a great workout too. 

Wendy became hooked when she installed a pole in her home. “It allows me to use my gymnastics background, combined with Dance…..it is a great way to express how you are feeling.” 

Wendy realized many women could benefit from this type of dance, because it incorporates resistance training, while having fun! Shortly after, she opened New York Pole Dancing in October 2005. 

Pole Dancing is taking the fitness industry by storm! In the first year in business, Wendy worked with more than 1000 women, teaching them how to pole dance.
