67-Year-Old Champion Pole Dancer Breaks Internet By Breathtaking Performances

3 Greta’s first appearance was in Los Angeles

Without wasting any time, she got ready to take part in her first competition. Her first appearance was in Los Angeles and what performance it was. The then-62-year-old Greta invested all her energies to stand out from her fellow competitors. Most of her competitors were 18-year-olds. “People kept coming over to me like I was some sort of anomaly, and I realized there was nobody else in my age group doing this,” she remembers.

4 Greta enthusiastically participated in the North American Dance Championships

Greta was never unfazed with the fact she is competing in a sport where the average age of participation was dismally lower than her. Greta enthusiastically participated in the North American Dance Championships where she stood second by a one-and-a-half-thousandth of a point. She got a lot of encouragement after stupendous performance. The inspiring victory motivated her to travel the world to compete. She secured five world champion titles in the process.

5 Greta puts her all in the performances

“I can’t do everything I used to – at my age, you lose muscle memory fast – but I mainly do strength moves. That’s my signature. I can do deadlifts, the splits, a flagpole, where you hold your body out at a 90-degree angle from the pole, and a cartwheel that lands in the splits. When I perform, though, it’s more about the artistry and the story-telling. I leave a piece of my heart behind on that stage,” she explains.
