lol, it always starts in the car…

for me, the way i coreograph, is i listen to the song.. pick certain parts of the song (where the beat hits, or drops, or when a note is held, or a guitar solo, or a funky beat) and try to envision what moves would go well with particular parts of the song. Concentrate on building those first, then fill up the rest of the song with floorwork, transitions, spins, and other moves.

Good luck!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

It literally hurts my heart when I see women so hard on themselves when they’re not selected to compete. As a professional dancer all of my life whose dealt with plenty of "rejection"; I know that there’s 2 ways to deal with it.

1.) be bitter, angry, disappointed; convincing yourself that you suck and that there’s no point in trying in the 1st place and give up on your dreams.

2.) let it inspire you to try harder, train harder, and believe in yourself more.

I know for a fact that Karol Helms was "rejected" the 1st time she submitted for USPDF. The following year, she won the East Coast Regionals and took the title of Miss Sexy. And deservedly so.

Never give up on yourselves or your dreams. Pole dancing is about creativity, self-expression and celebrating our individuality. Add to that some clean technique, smooth & unique transitions, powerful yet controlled spins and gravity-defying tricks plus musicality & artistry, and you’ll be sure to dazzle people at a competition one day.

Lastly, remember that LOTS of people are vying for a limited number of spots. You may be amazing, but so are a bunch of other people. What makes you stand out? You have to rely on more than just being able to do the tricks of the month.

DON’T GIVE UP!

My thoughts exactly..!!!

omg I havent recieved a response yet I’m shaking everythings spinning I feel sick…..omg omg omg I don’t know what to do with myself I want this sooo bad

I did not get in and did not think I would…only did it b/c last year i told myself i would submit for this… but… I think frankly it was unclassy of them to not notify everyone at the same time. Girls were finding out yesterday and some girls just got emails right now. Polarity had the consideration to tell everyone at once and not make people wait in slow torture. I feel USPDF was really rude in telling people at different times.

PowerTwirl, its not that theyre rude. They are 2 girls who have to watch probably a hundred videos, make decisions, run their own studios with multiple locations, teach full time, etc.. The first time i was not picked for uspdf, i was seeing all of the girls who were picked announce they got in.. they dont send the "sorry you did not get in" letter until after the 12 have signed and returned contracts and they make the official announcement. Sometimes a chosen competitor cannot provide valid ID or what-have-you, so they would select someone next on the list of "did not get ins"…

so glad you entered! Dont let it stand in the way of entering again! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
