About 150 people turned out to watch more than 20 students and instructors perform stunning routines during a packed two hours, with some incredible body-bending, gravity-defying moves on display.

For some of the students, this was the first time they had performed in front of an audience after weeks of preparation.

They were encouraged by cheers from a record number of friends, family and supporters.

Spinnin' Pole Studio is located upstairs at Fitness Perfection in March Street, having moved recently from the former PCYC building in Byng Street.
