    I was also searching all over for a video of her in the ceremony and couldn’t find anything.

    are body rolls and booty bounce the only way to represent sexy? 

    is what's sexy for you necessarily sexy for other people?

    maybe some people are deliberately not doing sexy, but isn't it possible that what looks asexual to one person is what makes the performer feel sexy, then it just becomes an diversifying of what is sexy. why do we have to lament the disappearance of conventional sexiness?

    to me, this is knock-me-out-of-my-chair sexy, but it might not be for the dancer on the next pole: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUAb-zS7NcM

    But it sounds like your workout schedule is just the right amount.

    yes there is!!! but not at your frequency. 

    Since I started in March, I've been poling an average of 3 hours/day + a half hour to an hour cardio warmup and an hour of stretching every other day. 

    I've just had to rest an entire 10 days because after my last day of workout,  my right hip and right shoulder started hurting. I didn't sustain any acute injury or impact, the injuries are only from wear&tear! I had to bandage up those places to limit my movement for a week. 

    Oh and on that last day I was starting to experience symptoms of a bronchial infection, which made my whole body weak, but I just wanted to work out anyway. I quit after only an hour of pole but even that was way more than my body signed up for. 

    So my suggestion is: don't overdo it like I did, and definitely don't push yourself when you're not in your best shape. And when your body isn't cooperating, discipline yourself to stay away from the pole!
