Amy Lezama is the co-director, co-founder and visionary behind the fitness division of The Pole Point Fitness and Wellness.

After completing her Bachelor's Degree in Marketing with Entrepreneurship in 2016 she worked many jobs while juggling life as a professional dancer. Some corporate jobs were fulfilling, some aligned with her field or various passions and some were truly painful, even souless. Then COVID hit. What could have been a devasting period, in the middle of a pandemic no less, turned out to be a successful pivot. She became her own boss. What started as a freelancing operation, led to her establishing a marketing agency with many clients who saw tremendous impact and tangible results from her expertise and experience.

In 2022 she began her pole dancing journey and instantly fell in love with the sport. It helped her heal deep trauma where words failed. Months later she was asked to move to Tobago to take up a few new clients and for quite some time this work was satisiying though she could feel that something was missing. Her mindset shifted. Instead of making her biggest impact for businesses, she wanted to help people become a better and healthier version of themselves similarly to how she healed - through the power of pole, fitness and community.

Meeting Ondrea was a kismet event. She is the perfect collaborator that turned collective their thoughts into reality. Amy gained qualifications in Pilates and Stretching while teaching pole dancing at the business they established The Pole Point Fitness and Wellness Studio. Now she has set her sights on health and nutrition and is excited to impart more knowledge to others in the future so they too can feel happy and healthy from the inside out.

Ondrea Teresa is the co-director, co-founder and visionary of the wellness division at The Pole Point Fitness and Wellness.

Ange first came to Tobago in 2017, the same year that her healing journey began. The island always felt magical and even from the first trip felt like home.

In 2023 after experiencing burnout from leading a large successful team in Las Vegas, Ange decided to dive deeper into coaching and got certified at the Jay Shetty Certification School as a Life and Success Coach. She has continued her studies in Breathwork facilitation & is constantly expanding her knowledge in the wellness space.

After meeting Amy in 2024 it was clear they were both very passionate about creating something new and special on the greatest little island on the planet, where they got to know one another. Bringing her experience in running a business and ability to connect deeply with others, Ange is beyond excited to be a part of the first ever pole, fitness & wellness space in beautiful Tobago.

Notes from our Founders

"Without pole dancing, I would not have found the strength needed to remove burdens off of my shoulders that were never even mine to bear in the first place. I would not have found the determination I lacked to continuously improve various areas of my health and well-being. It is so much more than a sport or a sexy activity. It's a journey where you learn to trust and prioritize yourself for one hour... then before you know it, you pick up numerous positive traits and practices that are easily assimilated to other spheres of your life. For anyone out there looking for an outlet to healthily let out negative emotions or looking for a way to prioritize yourself, pole is a pretty good place to start.

Should pole not be your jam, prioritizing movement remains important. Whatever you do, be intentional, safe and consistent. And if you are looking for a certified instructor, you've come to the right place. I am excited to connect with you through Pilates, Stretching and Mobility, Dance, Pole Dance and the combination we curate for every retreat and online class we make available. Join us and start experiencing a higher quality of life filled with ease, flexibility, agility, mobilty and long lasting strength."

"Going on a healing journey is a life long incredible rollercoaster of a ride! It is certainly not for the faint of heart and I often say I wish I had a coach or more of a spiritual community in place when mine began.

I’ve always been very active, playing sports, joining a gym at 15 and studied theater in high school & University. These outlets truly helped me to express what was buried deep.

Growing up as an HSP (highly sensitive person) in a family that did not express emotions felt stifling. I moved out of the country at 18 & followed my passions of acting & of immersing myself in the wellness space such as yoga & other healing modalities.

After being diagnosed with cPTSD from complex childhood trauma I knew my purpose was bigger than me. I follow the mantra that Healed People Heal People. I am incredibly grateful to be turning my pain into purpose and helping everyone who steps through the doors of The Pole Point Fitness & Wellness Studio to find their passions & cultivate a sense of community, safety & purpose."
