About S Factor
S Factor was designed by a woman for all women and is a radically new and advanced program inspired by a combination of Pilates, yoga, pole dancing and ballet that’s more effective than any fitness program.
S Factor was designed by actress and dancer Sheila Kelley while preparing for her starring role in the film, Dancing at the Blue Iguana. Sheila learned how to striptease and pole dance and was astonished by how strong, fit and confident she became. Sheila is a trained classical dancer having soloed with the Westmoreland Ballet Company and attended New York University’s famed Tisch School of Arts.
The absolute essence of S is wholesome sexually. S is a journey towards owning and loving your body; S is as timeless as dance and as contemporary as this moment; S is mind, body and spirit energized by sexual confidence; S is fun, kickass, joyful, wicked, powerful, exciting and hot. S is inspired by the natural beauty and elegance of a woman’s curves and is an expression of the feminine point of view – sexuality as defined by women.
