Day 7: Who supports you the most with your pole...
I’ve always felt that I’ve had a lot of inner strength and confidence; but with every improvement I’ve made I honestly think it’s because of the girls at my studio that I keep going. They’re my support team, my cheerleaders, and my coaches. They provide me with a fresh set of eyes and a double spot when I need it. I wish I could thank every single one of them without...

Day 6: To you, what’s the hardest thing about pole...
I think for most people, it’s overcoming stigma — being open and honest about your own sensuality and how that is perceived by others. I think sensuality, and having it in your dance is a powerful thing to both know and feel. Pole is a wonderful outlet that allows you to be unapologetic about being sexy. At it’s very core, it’s being comfortable with yourself and the movements...

llneo asked: First of all, wow! Your progress and just general awesomeness on the pole is inspiring! Secondly, the way you got into the remi sit from a low sit in your last video at around 2:58, absolutely baffles me, is there any way you could explain how you did it? I've tried pausing to figure it out but you move too fast! :p

Day 2: Why did you continue to pole dance?
I started getting serious about pole dancing after about a month’s worth of classes. Initially I enjoyed the challenge, and as a former athlete, the burn. I also really enjoy anything that gets my adrenaline pumping; so the spinning, dropping and hanging upside down 10 feet from the floor were definitely an added bonus. I like to think that I’ve moved past the “pure...

Day 1: When did you start pole and why?
I started pole dance September 23rd, 2011 at The Secret Pole Dance studio in Los Angeles. Originally I had bought a set of 4 intro classes with one of my friends at university because we figured it’d be a fun thing to do and doubly fun if we did it together. I had a small history in gymnastics and various kinds of dance (salsa, hip-hop, world/lyrical) and figured it be a good way to blow off...

"Tango" Drop
While shadowing Kitty today, I learned a “tango drop” which is broken down into: spinning reverse (like the lead-in to a back hook) and holding the pole with your left forearm, dropping backwards and then bringing it back up and swiveling the right foot to continue walking around the pole
