On Wednesday 11th March, Sky Tao will be showcasing a unique pole performance “LIBRE DE DANSER” at world’s first shareholder club, M1NT sponsored by Pravda Vodka. With the support of pole fitness company, Viva Vertical and Hong Kong’s artist driven website, AlivenotDead.com, the event is set to bring pole dancing, a form of artistic expression and performing arts to the attention of the Hong Kong public.

Presently pole dancing has become a popular trend in Hong Kong by way of exercise and as an alternative aerobic and anaerobic fitness regime. Sky Tao has equally been at the forefront of promoting pole dancing by way of performances in venues throughout Hong Kong.

This particular event is one of its kind to Hong Kong’s entertainment industry as the use of a portable stage and pole, designed by Viva Vertical, will make its debut in M1NT.

Sky Tao is an artist of many talents and has been pole performing since 2004. Born in Hong Kong, she left in 1995 to London and relocated back to Hong Kong in 2006. She has been accepted and recognised as an official artist by AlivenotDead.com, Viva Vertical and AASFP (Asian Academy for Sports and Fitness Professionals) and most recently received the title as Hong Kong’s first Asian pole dancer in December 2008 by Metro Radio (Metro Broadcast HK).

M1NT, the world’s first shareholders club, located at 108 Hollywood Road was founded in 2003 by Alistair Poon after recognising the absence of an exclusive entertainment environment that catered to high net and profiled individuals. Its mission and vision is to combine quality, class, elegance & service with exclusivity. “The business model is simply brilliant: allowing a very select group of people own part of an exclusive club, share the profits and not having to manage the business” – M1NT shareholder.
