Perfecting a New Skill

Join me on my journey to perfecting a new skill!

While at this year’s Pole Convention, I unlocked a new move, the Pole Handspring. This is one of the hardest moves to achieve because a lot goes into even having the strength to attempt the move. I have been piecemealing the steps to get this move for some time, and at Pole Con, I was finally able to do it with a spotter. Now is the time for me to work on the move alone- and it will be a challenge.

The thing that I constantly have to remind myself of is that I need to be patient. Rome was not built in a day, and neither will this handspring. Honestly, the fact that I am able to go for this move as a curvier body is an accomplishment in and of itself. So I am going to keep pushing on this one until I finally get it. And when I do finally get it - watch out, because you will be able to hear me EVERYWHERE. LOL.

Cheers to DAY 1 of training the handspring.

Aerial Progress

I’ve been cross-training on Lyra for the past year or so. I love it because it gives me a new challenge that is different from pole and reminds me to be patient with myself.

I recently acheived a cool new move on lyra called the jade. This is a move that I struggle with on the pole sometimes, so being able to do it on the hoop was a tremendous accomplishment. It lets me know that I have the ability in my body, I just need to find the right angle, depending on the apparatus.

So here’s to trying new things!

Just Dance!

Just Dance!!

I have recently rediscovered dance on a consistent basis to help me with stamina while performing. I don’t always feel like running a full pole combo to build up my endurance, so it is nice to be able to move about on the ground and really tap into expression.

Sometimes, all you need to do is just let your inner bad b*tch come out!

Here are a few of my fav combos I’ve done:
