    So I just looked at Sedusa’s website and couldn’t find the AA workshop in any of the locations. Not sure if it’s because I’m looking from my phone?

    Hadn’t been to Sedusa…but I’m pretty sure I would cry manly tears if I took a class with AA.

    I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to; not only is the workshop before open pole but it’s the most expensive I’ve ever seen. We’ve had lessons here from Becca Butcher and Jenyne for WAY less than $75. And on such short notice @_@

    Ahh! A class with Phoenix! That would be my first celebrity workshop but I’m sure it’s probably booked. That and I have a lunch date at like, 1:30, then I’m going home to make dinner (duck) and dessert that needs to chill for 5 hours (chocolate pot de creme!) But if they have a spot open I might take the bus home just to take a workshop. I didn’t read anything about Phoenix in the newsletter.

    I’m saving my money to go to PoleCon next year. I travel to SF because I have friends there who I’ve known for so long that I know they won’t bail on me or cancel. So I’m there atleast 6 months out of the yyear.

    The studios here aren’t really far. They’re 30-40m drive. So it’s not really traveling for pole studios. It’s more like I travel and get pole in on the side.

    Climbing is not a small feat. It’s very important! Think of it this way; if you couldn’t add or subtract, you wouldn’t be able to multiple, divide, do algebra (ew) or geometry (more ew). It’s an essential foundation. 😀 it took me like, two months to climb the pole. But to be fair, I was trying to learn to climb in socks LOL. So congrats on your quick progress!

    I was like, “hmmm, those look like bodyzone garters!” Scroll down –> manufacturer : BodyZone. You can tell I do way too much shopping for work @_@

    If you’ve ever seen their thongs, they’re made out of the same material and are of the same quality. Which, while they might SEEM cheap because of their shiney glossy fabric, if you look at their stitching it’s actually double stitched. I have thongs from almost a year ago by the same brand that have never shown so much as a loose thread.

    So durability is an A+

    If you’re looking for something thicker (I’ve never work a garter, so I’m not sure how thick they’re supposed to be) as that strap is about an inch, I know Fredricks of Hollywood sells garters like they’re hotcakes. You can also try online wedding superstores or any adult/stripper stores in your area.

    Hope this helps :3

    Yes, I live in north Phoenix area :3 my home studio stopped doing open pole so I make the drive to Prowess across the valley in Tempe. They’re the only studio that teaches advanced other than Pussycats, but I’ve had complications with Pussycats in the past.

    If you give me dates I can ask super nicely for a favor! And then we can pole together :D!

    Yeah, San Jose is like, half an hour away from San Fran.

    I dance to SRC’s Lovesong cover pretty much every day, so totally agree with Chem. But if you want something more romantic and softer, Heartbeats by Jose Gonzales or I Remember by Whitley.

    November 27, 2012 at 3:10 pm in reply to: Being called fat…by other “pole dancers”?!?!

    @jenwo “A REAL woman”? Not to be rude, but a “real” woman isn’t and shouldn’t be exclusive to curvy girls only.

    There was a photo going around on facebook a year or two with pictures of mostly anorexic girls being compared to Marilyn Monroe and a few other curvy pin-up babes. And the caption said something like, “when did this” (overly skinny girls). “Become more attractive than this?” (Insert 50’s divas.) And then the kicker at the end, “LIKE IF YOU WANT A “REAL” WOMAN!”

    For a while a lot of my immature friends jumped on the like & share bandwagon. Maybe it made them feel better about making fun of bigger girls in the past? And these are the same scumbags who made fun of me when I was 200lbs at 5’9″.

    I then had a friend who’s body doesn’t develope at even half the rate of the people around her, comment on a friends post a counter argument photo on my friend’s page. It was the same image, except for at the end it said, “IT NEVER DID. Women come in all shapes and sizes, and that’s what makes them beautiful.” That same friend is built like Twiggy, and how popular was Twiggy back in the day?

    @glitter. A “real” woman is a confident woman, a beautiful woman on the inside, and someone who is comfortable with themselves. So, Glitter, when someone calls you fat or bigger, or whatever, I would just remind yourself that they can say whatever they want. In all reality, you’ll always be the “bigger” woman because the person slinging insults couldn’t hope to be half the wonderful person you are.
