We get to chat and laugh with Amy Bond, owner of Pole & Dance Studios with studio locations in San Francisco, Oakland, and Berkeley. She is an author, competitive pole dancer, and pro bono attorney. In this episode we discuss her recent feature in the Netflix-original documentary Strip Down, Rise Up, the healing aspects of pole dance, and her and her husband's journey into polyamory.
