    I'd LOVE to go on that retreat!!!!

    I think that even sensual dancing and organic dancing need to be learned through loose choreography and practiced until it becomes a part of your movement.  I teach a group class that is a follow the leader class and it's basically only transitions, all we do is switch up the way we go into them and we work on slowing up or moving faster and find seamless ways to get in and around the pole.  

    I highly recommend picking 3-4 transitions and using them in a dance – just those transitions – when the transitions become a part of your body then the tricks easily fall into place.  I find I have to practice dance as much as I have to practice certain tricks.

    If you have netflix see if you can get the Divine Movement DVD's they are very S Factorish.

    Don’t think, just LET GO. Let go of your mind and follow your body. Feel your surroundings and textures of the floor or wall. Let her move without planning or thinking of the next move. Feel your body and curves, play with your hair. Let your body be messy. Don’t think, just flow.

    I just surfed netflix and I can't find it either!  I'll try to find the DVD today maybe it isn't called Divine Movement – although that is the name of the studio the woman who filmed the DVD's is from.  From what I remember it's all off the pole moves but it was a really great DVD.  I'll be back with more info soon I hope.

    I believe the Divine Movement dvd being referenced is actually called "Strip To It: Core Moves and Fantasies". It is important to get this title in the 'Strip To It' series and not the others because this is the only one taught by Divine Movement Studios based in Seattle.
