Posting so I can look back in the future. If anyone happens to see this... For years, I felt guilty that I didn't find joy in learning all the trendy tricks. I felt that as an instructor, it was my duty to follow and participate in trends.

Someone wanted to know what this transition would look like. Hope this helps. I got out of a hot shower and thought, hey I'm all warm so I'd make a quick vid.

Finally got a workout in today! I thought I'd try the inverted standing split I had shared on my IG....As you can see I can do it, buuuuuut not like before. I just thought it would be interesting to see the difference! I honestly thought it would be

If you've never listened to the words of this song do. Things have changed dramatically for I'd say almost everyone in the past 2 yrs. Loss of many people, loss of lifestyle, the way we think about others.... Here's a link to the lyrics

Thank you all for your support, commensuration and comments. It was uncomfortable sharing "why I stopped pole dancing" and "the process of leaving pole dance" videos. But it's been kinda fun sharing these clips of training and fails. Normally I need

Far from where I've been, but much stronger than I was. My hands are stronger and skin desensitized enough to do combos!

I'm hoping by summer I'll have this space all to myself :) You never know what life will bring tho!

Today I was focused on trying the moves I had done the first day. Cartwheel, deadlifts, all much stronger now! My Cartwheel mount is finally feeling solid! Probably wont do much for deadlifts after this lol

DEADLIFTS ARE SOOOO HARD, UHG. 😂 I'm not a fan of deadlifts to begin with, they are great for working on strength but useless as a grounded move. Once my testing of moves is done, I'll be leaving the deadlifts for spin pole inverts! Still couldn't

I've decided to share my journey of getting back on the pole. I've had plenty of long stretches without pole dancing, but I've always done some kind of exercise while away. I am out of shape and my clothes don't fit. This does not mean I think I'm

It feels like forever since I've danced like this. Someday soon I'll be back on the "horse" again. Old vid before covid! I've been off the pole for a few months now.
