New - From Canada!

Hi Everyone! My name is Raven and I'm from BC Canada. I descovered Pole Dance through the "related items" box on youtube one day more than a year ago and it was love at first sight. I compete internationally in a wonderfull sport called Equstrian Vaulting (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quSM218Qvps this video is some clips from various world championships and World Equestrian Games) For more info check out http://www.vaultcanada.org Initially when i first brought up the subject of pole dance my husband (then fiancee) was etreemly skeptical but he is also our National vaulting coach - and thus my coach, so I played it to him as cross training, I showed him video of Felix and he was convinced. My X-pole arrived on my birthday. Unfourtunately my life has been insanely crazy this last year, between our wedding, my husband's brother's wedding US Natioanls, North American Young Rider Championships, A World Games qualifying competition and Candian Nationals I havn't really had time to learn much more on the pole then the baisc spins from the DVD that came with the X-Pole and a couple of other basic moves from youtube video. So now, I'm planning on taking class at the Goddess Movement (I'd learn from the internet but my husband thinks that I need a social life so this kills to birds with one stone) Arg excuses excuses. Cheers, Sanchara
