Aerial arts are awesome to watch let alone try! 🙂
I've been poling for 8 months now and I have my first Aerial (a combo of silks/lyra and rope) class tonight. YAY! So stoked to give it a try!

Ps as soon as I switch the camera on, my hands sWeat profusely! It’s so frustrating!!!!!! 🙁 but camera off and no
Problem -
That’s a loaded question 😉 but a very good one at that
My issues are with my short goofy legs and the way the camera picks up and emphasizes my strangely shaped lower half. It’s so bizarre but I find myself sitting back while watching it and thinking “wow is that really how I look?”.
Everyone is their own worst critic though 😉 anyone who posts a video of themselves pole damcing on the net is pretty ballsy and a least a little bit confident in my books 🙂
Please don’t let body issues stop you from posting videos ladies 🙂 -
That was fantastic!!!!! <3
I have my first Aerial class Wed, SO stoked!

Reenie said it all 🙂 it's not a "DIET" so much as a lifestyle change 😉 You don't want to make all of these positive changes for a couple of months just to go back to what you were eating before….and how you were feeling before 😉
Balance is the key.
it's especially important to make sure that you body is well fueled for well..life…let alone poling! If you're hungry, you're going to feel a bit weak, which never helps you nail those moves you're trying for.
About an hour before poling or any exercise I nibble on something or have a protein shake. This gives your body a bit of time to digest before getting on the pole. I find that if i'm eating a full meal (breakfast/lunch/dinner) before poling you feel a bit heavy.
I time it so that after workout/poling, i'm ready to dive into my full meal (breakfast/lunch/dinner).
Right now i'm on a Stripped down plan (Tosca Reno) which has eliminated dairy/bread/sugar. It's definitely not for everyone! But a typical day goes something like this:
Breakfast (around 7am): 1/2 cup oatmeal with 1/2 mashed banana and cinnamon in it + 4 egg whites
Snack (around 10am) : two handfuls of berries + 1 handful of cashew or almonds
Lunch (around 1pm) : 1 chicken breast + 1 cup greens + 1 handful diced veggies all topped with a squeeze of lemon (sounds plain but it's honestly not bad at all)
mid-day snack (4pm ish) : celery sticks with either hummus or almond/peanut butter (or a protein shake)
Dinner (7pm ish) : Veggies + shrimp (or tofu or egg) stirfried with 1 tbsp of sesame oil and seasoned with whatever herbs and spices you like.
I rarely have a snack before bed but if I do it's an piece of fruit usually 🙂
It seems like a LOT of work to cook all of this, but the trick is to take a couple of hours 1 or 2 days a week and prepare everything ahead of time (chicken breast/hardboiled eggs/ cut up veggies etc) so that when you open the fridge or go to make your lunch, the majority of the work is done already.

Oh oh oh, quick tip if you're detoxing to clear up your skin! Squeeze half of a lemon worth of lemon juice into a mug, add boiling water and drink (once it's cooled a bit obviously). Drink this everyday, first thing when you wake up in the morning.
Good for the liver, cleans up the skin as lemon acts as a toner. Also, stimulates the bowels and keeps you regular 😉
Cheap and painless…unless you burn your tongue 🙁

Sending tons of love to you and your little trooper! <3

Hiya ladies 🙂
I can't say that i've done a "cleanse" per say, but I am doing a stripped down plan at the moment to tone up and build some muscle so that I have an easier time with pole tricks (as well as fit into my bikinis in the summer) 😉
Cutting out dairy, sugar and breads has helped IMMENSELY! I've quite literally never had abs before.. in the history of EVER! and they're starting to peek out so i'm stoked!
I'm posting a 100 days of "fit" album right now.
Focus on eating healthy lean proteins, whole veggies and whole fruit. Nix those sugary juices, heavy breads, pastas and milk and you won't need a cleanse 😉
Cleanses tend to knock everything out of your body, both the bad stuff and the good stuff. Be careful! 🙂

Eek, that's kind of a bummer to pay for your time and not get it :/ The studio I go to have a strict 1 to 1 pole/girl ratio, but that being said, not all studios are quite as large are these.
That's a toughy

As a pole dancer, that would most likely be traveling to attend as an audience member, I would have absolutely no problem paying to see a showcase.
Not only will this help the promoters/ showcase managers / owners recoop their investment, but it shows support to our fellow pole dancers and their talent as well as the art / sport itself.
We live in a time where we DO pay for entertainment. We pay to see a movie.. we pay to see a circus…we pay to see hockey games.. etc etc etc.
Why wouldn't we be supportive of a production that featured something we all know and love so much?

I'm excited just to go 🙂 Not taking any of the workshops, just kind of want to spectate and of course have a bit of vacation time 🙂 maybe purchase some pole gear and grip goo.
Stoked to meet all of the wonderful Veeners!
I'm not sure if anyone else is staying for a few days after the convention, but we're going to rent some bikes and hit the beach and shops, if anyone else would like to join in, lemme know 🙂
Just a few more weeks!!!!
