Pole dance & write with your heels

1 Jun

Believe it or not pole dancing requires study.

When you are ready to start be sure you have paper, pen and then your favourite pair of heels.

This evening it’s rest day and I’m here trying to order my thoughts and my notes as well.

Yes, my pole dance notes.

Pole dance is understanding movements, identifying points of contact btw skin and pole, isolating engaged muscles and learn how to control them all. Pole dance is reasoning, logic, control.

On my table plenty of papers where I took notes after my international workshop with Miss Austin. A kind of uncategorized wishlist, moves to learn, moves to try; moves I’ll categorize and teach  myself and then  my girls. 

A reasoned moves-spin-tricks list sounding like  a coreography, that, I know,  I’m not going to follow.

Study is good but improvisation is better.

So, believe me, learn first and then dance.

Feel the music and let yourself go. You’re ready to pole.

Pole dance iguana mount: nothing is impossible

31 May

When I first started pole dancing, as I already wrote somewhere here in my blog, I thought “No, I can’t. This will be just for fun“.

It wouldn’t be true.

During the first month everyhing was difficult: I wasn’t able to pull up, I wasn’t able to spin smoothly, after 15 minutes I was out of breath , I had hand soreness and a pain all over my body.

Look what I can do now, after a 10-month self-taught trainining.
Incredible.

I looooove my pole.

Dancing company

13 May

Always pole dance in good company. The company of someone you feel comfortable with, someone who won’t dare to say a word about what you’re making or how you’are making it, someone you can trust and keep your pole dancing secrets.

Always choose someone who will appreciate your goals, understand your efforts, and therefore rest with you.

Thank you Nonno Mao!

Practice makes perfect

It’s the case of pole dancing but of writing your own blog as well!

Good luck Aryanna.

Curiosity

Here is today’s curiosity.

Hello world!

Hello there!

This is an experiment. I’m trying to keep track of pole dancing progress both as a dancer and as a teacher.

This is an international blog which goes together with an Italian blog. I’ll try to keep both of them uptodate, writing same posts, talking about same topics and feelings.

But, as you know, writing a diffferent language is thinking a different way.

That’s why I guess the two blogs will follow different lines. That’s all for now.
