Past:
Kilo began her pole journey June 6, 2011. She heard about pole through a conversation and began to research for a local instructor. Upon research, she found someone teaching pole. She was a little nervous as she found that this was an apartment based "studio" business, she put her nervousness to the side and proceeded with her first lesson. After attending her first lesson, she felt a soreness that she never felt before. That was the day she began her journey.
Who is Kilo Kitty Buhrmaster?
Past, Present, Future
During the beginning of her journey, she started to become almost obsessed with pole videos on YouTube and really got into watching Competitions. She was drawn into Alethea Austin, Cleo the Hurricane and so many more.
Kilo got to experience her first live competition by being a spectator and it left a drive to compete. She began training until she broke her left fibula and had to put her dreams aside.
During the summer of 2014, Kilo got her X-Pert Pole Fitness Level 1 and 2 Certification. After receiving her certification, she began as an instructor at a local "studio" (at its current location) in June 2014. She became the Lead Instructor until February 2022 after 7.5 years.
Kilo got a new taste of pole after attending Pole Con during the summer of 2015. She began training again for competitions as well as performance while continuing to teach and work a full time corporate job. The summer of 2017 was the first taste of performing and competing.
Present:
Flash forward to this current time. Kilo has earned over 9 placement titles, performed in numerous performances, numerous certifications.
She loves to teach, helping others grow on their journey; seeing them grow into their potential. She has begun to teach workshops and offers opportunities of growth.
She loves to compete, she loves the challenge and every time she receives critique; it not only helps her as a competitor but she also takes it back to her students.
