It’s been 5 months since I’ve posted for many reasons. I love pole. I really love pole. I want to get better, but sometimes I just feel like the odds are against me. I keep getting injured and it’s hampering my progress so much that it has actually become more frustrating than fun. I just need to really get my mind right and keep working. 6 months ago I could invert. It wasn’t pretty, but I could do it. I feel like I’m completely starting over, but there somethings I can actually doing pretty well still or even better. For instance, my climb has gotten pretty good. Now I wish I had a higher pole! This pole journey is a roller coaster! Here’s a vid of me working on a Layout. Needs work, but I’m happy with my progress.
My daughter is doing awesome! She got a shoulder mount on the first try so I made her do it again so I could film her! She also got this handspring after working on it for about 15 minutes. She’s pretty awesome and I am so proud of her and her progress. I know this is something that she is going to be very, very good at.
Til next time! (Hopefully sooner than 5 months!)

My first class I broke down in tears. My hands are so small and I was so nervous (sweaty) that I couldn’t get a grip on the pole AT ALL! I was so frustrated I ended up leaving the class in tears. I worked up the courage to go back the next week and haven’t stopped since. If you check out my blog you’ll see the newest trick I learned, the scorpion. I was so hype last night when I nailed it. Keep it up both of you! ❤ Love.
