Let the list begin! So far heard acceptances!
Pro
Karol
Allison CoxAmateur
Heidi from pole waxers (forgive me if name is wrong) -
I am so excited for all of the competitors many of whom I have been watching on YouTube for the past three years. This will be the first year not making it to NYC for the big comp so I must hear all the news
-
Me, too! I am so excited – hope I get to go.
I did hear Melanie Kady made it for amateur! Woo!
-
Hmm…I may try to make this. It would be neat to meet everyone…maybe find out who is at what hotel and try to book at the same place? Sounds like fun! Hope I can get away!

I think Rebecca Starr got in for Pro too!
They said they are going to make the annoucements for everything this by the end of the month. If your a USPDF member and got your newsletter they have already set up various packages for workshops/tickets. I have a small feeling its going to be at Symphony Space again. It seem like a good location when I saw it via photos.
Im all for trying to stay together. Im trying to cut costs the best I can w/o being really cheap (like living off of pbj all weekend). Whoever suggested a hostel was a genius idea since I dont think alot of us will be staying in our rooms for long.

It's definitely at Symphony Space – I'm trying to get my hubby to go. About time he saw pole the way it was meant to be danced! Will there be a big Veena meetup somewhere? Or an afterparty like last year? I want to see you all!
-
I unfortunately won't be going this year… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif we've had some "misfortune" and won't be able to afford it. I'm bummed, but I'll be shooting for next year! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

I’m going to both ceremonies (again). I saw Karol’s submission video, and I can’t wait! They, like so many of the members here, inspire me incredibly!!! I’d love to meet you guys in person!
-
I'll be there!!! Soooo ready to celebrate my bday weekend with you guys!!!!
Here is what I've heard: Leigh Ann , Karol, Heidi Pasch, Melanie Kady, Amy (not sure on last name) and Jennifer (I think her last name is Kim, but don't quote me) from BeSpun, Michelle Stanek. Now I could be wrong on some of these, but it's what I've seen on FB.
Although I'm a little confused, didn't the top 3 girls in west coast and east coast automatically make it to the pro comp??? Or is it just 1st place?
West Coast Winner 2010, Natasha Wang! 2nd Place: Shelly Lamb 3rd Place: Amy Raven
East Coast Winner 2010, Rebecca Starr! 2nd place: Heidi Coker, 3rd place: Allison Cox
Either way, top 3 are now pros — so Heidi from pole waxers couldn't have been in the amateurs.
As for location From USPDF.com:
US Pole Dance Championship 2011 will be held at Symphony Space in NYC Fri, April 29. Amateur 1:00PM, Pro 7:30PM. Ticket sale starts Sunday Jan 23.

THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!!!
Im ready to start booking everything! I wanna get a head start on it so I can present it to my husband so I can get the green light on going.
-
So they posted the finalists, but I thought there were supposed to be 12 pro finalists… and I only see 8? Does anybody know why this is? Did all the others just not submit you think??
-
I'm not sure what is going on either? Because Rebecca Starr is guaranteed a spot as this year's East Coast Champion, and she's not on there – so there are definitely people missing. They also said that there would be 8 amateurs and there are fewer than that….they sure are dragging out the suspense! Hurry hurry! 🙂
-

-
LittleC and Blueeyes – I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if they are going to finish adding more as everyone turns in thier paperwork.
-
Yes there are definitely more to be added. Not sure why they posted only a few… I guess bc us impatient ppl 🙂
