who quickly became known as "The Flirty Girls". Kerry and Krista were
born in Newfoundland, Canada but spent most of their upbringing in
Halifax, Nova Scotia before moving to Toronto, where they started Flirty
Girl Fitness™. Krista still resides in Toronto and Kerry resides in
Chicago.

Krista, an avid fitness buff and dance enthusiast, is a graduate of
Dalhousie University in Halifax. After graduating from university Krista
took a position as a sales manager with a major national communications
company where she accumulated eight years of business experience and
developed strong technology skills. Working within the provincial
education sector, Krista worked closely with the universities and school
boards to strategically develop and build their internet and
communications networks.
The
sisters' move into fitness began in 2005 after Kerry watched an episode
of “Oprah” with “Desperate Housewives'” Teri Hatcher demonstrating a
sexy workout class she'd taken in LA. Kerry, who had always been into
personal fitness, was dying to try it but couldn't find any classes
available outside of California. Seeing the opportunity, she bought a
pole to teach herself. When Krista came to visit her sister they were
both amazed how quickly she took to this new sport; within weeks Krista
was mastering the spins and techniques involved in pole dancing. With
Kerry's experience in taking new start-ups to market and her sister's
physical fitness background and prowess on the pole this dynamic duo
developed and launched Flirty Girl Fitness™.
The original Flirty Girl Fitness™ is now one of the top fitness
facilities for women in Toronto since op.
