Training for workshops…?

azblanco – I am SO jealous that you had a private with Alethea! SHe is my favourite pole dancer ever! I had a workshop with her in Sydney two years ago when she came out to perform at Miss Pole Dance Australia – she was awesome. I remember being worried I wouldn't be advanced enough for her class but she actually taught us alot of stuff off the pole – floorwork, bakward shoulder rolls, body rolls, flexibility etc. It was great, and she gave us time to ask questions. Plus I love how instructors will play their music – it makes it so much more authentic because we are used to hearing their music on their youtube videos etc… ANyway I am glad you feel like you got a lot out of your private with her – that must have cost a bit! So it's definitely worth being prepared… Good tip! 🙂

Hey you're attending, the real reason why you're excited and that sounds great to me. Personally I don't feel it serves us well, getting all worked up over being ultra prepared in order to take any workshop. The important thing aspect for me is to be totally present in the moment, with all the skills I have and ready to soak in what the teacher has to offer. Just experiencing the instructor in person, whom I find interesting, is one of the great joys of taking any workshop or even more deliciously, a private.
Sure it's important to grasp what's going to be covered, understand and be able to openly communicate why you really want to attend, plus assess what needs and skills might help you get the most out of the workshop. Yet heck, you are taking a class from somebody you most likely really admire so, enjoy the time with them and the road leading up to it.
