Bad link for Jimi's FB sorry:

Just this weekend at Pole Expo the comp performance overall winner was Jimi Blu. He's 52 proving anyone can kick ass.
You'll find a loud screaming video on his FB page: https://www.facebook.com/jimi.blu
Plus a more frontal shot on Candee's FB page that is easier on the ears: https://www.facebook.com/CandeeCane5

Ask a dozen dancers and you’ll get a dozen different answers. One sure response is the singular fact that Modern came before anything someone might call Contemporary. For me Contemporary is a blend of different styles where Modern is more closely aligned to a singular defined technique style.
I’d study whatever dance technique you felt might best benefit your style of pole. For me that is a combination of ballet and Limon technique. The release and recovery in Limon comes into play for spin work. Ballet for line, core strength and the strong sense of spirals when talking about energy moving through the body to form shapes.

All those "pole foods" on your plate, sounds good to me.

Started with a 50mm chrome X-Pole. However just tried the 40mm X-Pole chrome plus a 38mm brass. Loved them both. So now I’m waiting for X-Pole to release the 40mm brass in the states. The 50mm is just too big for my hands and I feel like I’m over-gripping at times just to hold on.

Beautiful performance.

Will be over at Fawnia’s studio for a few sessions on Saturday, one of them being Veena’s … 🙂

Well happy B’Day Ms. PDAddix. Enjoy it and remember to save the “0” candle from your cake. I’m sure there will be many more times ahead to reuse it. Plus when you finally have to buy a second “0”, I hope you’ll post a picture of you in a pole sit next to the cake right here on StudioVeena

@chemgoddess – Anyone who sits "voluntarily" in an ice bath for a few days makes me wonder.

Hot tub. Now that sounds nice.

I can see why you certainly have problems uploading videos from iPad or iPhone to Veena because they use Adobe Flash as the upload mechanism. That is a problem with iOS devices and for a good reason. There are others ways of doing accomplishing an upload so maybe we just need to bring it to the attention of Webmaster, like sheeffnjay mentioned and he can fix that. I bet he's very aware of this already but maybe an internal Veena email might be helpful in clarifing what the status is. I will send one and report back to this thread when I get a reply.
If you still want to share videos at this point, you could just simply upload them to YouTube and then display the link. Certainly not perfect but it might work for a temp solution for now.

Hey you're attending, the real reason why you're excited and that sounds great to me. Personally I don't feel it serves us well, getting all worked up over being ultra prepared in order to take any workshop. The important thing aspect for me is to be totally present in the moment, with all the skills I have and ready to soak in what the teacher has to offer. Just experiencing the instructor in person, whom I find interesting, is one of the great joys of taking any workshop or even more deliciously, a private.
Sure it's important to grasp what's going to be covered, understand and be able to openly communicate why you really want to attend, plus assess what needs and skills might help you get the most out of the workshop. Yet heck, you are taking a class from somebody you most likely really admire so, enjoy the time with them and the road leading up to it.

Age, just another 3 letter word. Pole, spin, dance and enjoy it.
