If you don't already know, you're about to find out that Nadia Sharif is a Badass. In the world of pole dance and general bad bitchery, she is well known and widely respected for her fiery, bold movement style and commitment to using her voice to speak truth.
In this chat we'll learn about how she went from corporate career in technical engineering to pole performer, pole engineer, teacher and founder of Twisted Movement dance wear. We talk about Nadia's recent video speaking out about the problematic use of the word "exotic" that went viral and what that experience has been like. We talk about the sex worker discrimination that has become apparent in the industry of pole dance as it has grown and we talk about Nadia’s experiences as an American woman of Mexican, Pakistani heritage plus so much more.
