My Pole Playlist

I love music. As a dancer, I'm always looking for those "diamond in the rough" songs that inspire me to create routines. Here are a few of my favorite songs to pole to!

It all started when…

I have wanted to get involved in pole/aerial arts ever since I went to the Cirque du Soleil Michael Jackson Immortal Tour and saw the most amazing pole dance routine to Michael Jackson’s “Dangerous”. As I sat in awe, I told myself that one day I would learn how to do the things that the performer was doing. A few years later, I took my first pole class and fell in love!

Why Pole?

I have been poling since Summer 2015. I come from a cheer/dance background, so pole has been a huge change for me. My favorite thing about pole is that it encourages me to challenge myself and do things that I'm not supposed to be able to do. Recently, I have gained an even deeper appreciation for pole, because it has forced me to learn how to be patient with myself and celebrate every win, no matter how big or small. I always leave class feeling on top of the world each and every time I hit a new trick. Poling has brightened my life because it gives me a goal to work towards and provides me an escape from the stress of every day life.

5 Fun Facts About Me:

Absolutely love Disney movies, no matter how old I am.
Avid sports fan, specifically football, although I dabble in other sports, depending on who is playing.
