Kerry Burnett, known on social media as Keri Gold, turned 54 in October. When she was young, she dreamed of becoming a woman, but she was told that she was too fat. For years, she struggled with eating disorders, especially bulimia, and depression. At some point, Keri decided to change something.
She used to think she was “too old” to pole dance. She has been dancing for seven years
Keri made a list of things she wanted to try at least once in her life. One of the points was on the pipe. Initially, however, she was afraid that she was “too old”. So she pursued other plans. At one point she got a free gym membership. Regular exercises gave her so much self-confidence that at the age of 47 she finally decided to take pole dancing lessons. She planned to do it only once. But the one-time adventure turned into a long-term experience. – I was only going to take one class, but it was so refreshing and non-judgmental, and there were so many people with different body shapes, that I stayed – she admitted in the interview. – If someone had told me then what I would do, I would have said no way – she added.
She is 54 years old and has no intention of stopping dancing. “I will be 80 years old and still on this stage”
Today, Keri Gold is 54 years old, still training and teaching classes for beginners. She also takes part in dance competitions, winning further titles. She admits that she was once terrified by the prospect of life after the age of 50, but thanks to pole dancing she changed her mind.
I’m still in shock as I travel the world, perform, and choreograph shows on cruise ships. This used to be a dream for me that I thought would never come true […]. Look at me when I’m 80 and still on this stage
– she confessed in a post published on her birthday. In the video, Keri presents her training, proving to her fans not only her strength, but also her flexibility. In the comments, fans wished her all the best, but also did not hide their admiration for the 54-year-old’s form. Many of them emphasized that Keri continues to inspire.
Keri, you are my hero.
You are extraordinary. You rock!
