Official Midwest Pole Jam Info-August 7 in CHICAGO!!!
-
Yep I plan on staying until Wed am unless you kick me out before then https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Oooooo, could I crash there Friday night? I was going to drive in (8 hours!) on Saturday, but I’d SO much rather be rested on the day! Pretty please with iTac2 on top?

WE ARE OFFICIALLY SOLD OUT FOR THE JAM! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
That’s exciting but it’s also sad as I would now have to turn people away if they wanted to come! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
This got much larger than I ever anticipated for such a short notice event.
We have a few openings for the Transitions workshop for those who are attending the jam and of course GPF is offering private lessons on Friday evening if anyone is interested in that.
We also have a big announcement coming up at the jam! It’s a surprise so everyone who can’t make it will find out after the jam what that’s about!

I have to get some more study time in! starting tonight I work through until next Thursday https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif While it has been nice to be off the last 4 nights I wish I didn’t have such a long stretch to work before the Jam. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_neutral.gif

Empy: showcase….heh…uh, funny story about that………I’ve never actually performed in public before. The thought is kind of terrifying! I mean….there’s some people on this guest list that I’ve got butterflies just to meet, let alone perform in front of!
Poleophile: what time are you planning on getting in? I was thinking about coming straight to the jam from Decatur myself, but I could be back Friday evening if need be. I think my bf might be coming up with me for a break before school starts, but I’m not sure yet. I’m such a last-minute planner, I’m sorry! I’m sure we can work something out. I need to talk to my mom and my man this afternoon, I’ll let you know as soon as the plan is finalized.
UPDATE: parents will definitely be out of town, so I can host up to 4 quite comfortably.

PDR – I was nervous as all get out when we did our Detroit Showcase and it had been a very long time since I had performed anywhere for anyone and this was the largest crowd I had performed for and it was fine.
It’s good experience to get out there and perform especially for those who want to compete (I am not sure if that is a goal for you.) One thing I realized was – what I can do alone in front of a camera is different than what I can do when I in front of people. the nerves, the forgetfulness, the fumbling – it all happens and at the end of it no one notices any of that except you.
I just did a comp this weekend and lost but what I did say was this "If I am this nervous for a small local comp what am I going to do if I ever get accpeted into the USPDF or something else?" You are a good dancer. Let us all enjoy you https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

Decatur georgia????
-
Decatur, IL. There must be a ton of people from Decatur, GA, because I get asked that a lot.
-
I won’t be arriving until about 6sih or so. Stupid me forgot to ask off work for Thursday night so I need to come home and catch a bit of sleep after I get off at 5 am Friday morning. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif going to try to be all packed so I can get up and hit the road about noonish.
-
Get some good rest…we don’t want to worry about you on the road! Charley and I are going to be working on completing her certification during the day so you won’t be missing anything any fun.
-
working on certs is fun https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif CERTS!
I am getting really excited! I started shopping for the trip last weekend. This is the first time I am travelling alone!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif
-
I’m the traveling fool this year. Looking forward to my man coming with me on some of them. But he won’t be able to come to Pole Jam because of me staying extra. But it just makes sense to combine trips pole jam with working on my certs.
I’m sure by the end of pole jam we will be saying congrats to charley on finishing her intermediate cert https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
