Thanks verucablue – this event looks fun! And it’s a good opportunity to meet the Heart & Pole folks without having to drive to Torrance (I live in Hollywood.)
I might add this to my Saturday evening’s agenda.

I know Winter… I just talked to her and she didn’t make it
Wow…not that those who were selected were undeserving at all, but they cut some great folks. What a hard decision for Anna and Wendy to make!
I’ve always wondered if filming your submission at an actual strip club affects how the video is perceived. There was a submission for USPDF West (I think her name was Christina?) that was clearly shot before or after her shift. She had mad skills and was doing tricks I could only dream of at the time, and she didn’t make it. I thought she was a shoo-in.
Not that it SHOULD matter, imo – in a perfect world it’s about performance level, creativity, flexibility and all that jazz, but it’s an interesting thought.

Bah, I got my rejection letter too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif At least I’m in good company.
I was at the studio last night, and we were guessing who the 6th amateur competitor was, and we guessed maybe Winter Rainone? Her video looks like it was shot by a surveillance camera, but she’s crazy good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytu5g9Itycc

I just bought mine too – Row M, seat 107. Was trying to get seats next to Lisa and gator4life, but they were sold already!
And I know I’m a newbie member, but I’m looking forward to meeting all of you!

blueeyes – that’s a really good guess. Amy Raven’s video was great.
Here it is, in case you haven’t seen it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oBmKXYaHYY
Her looks and style of dancing reminds me of Barbara Dial.

Nice to meet you ottersocks/Ellen! I’m sure I saw you in the audience – you guys were too cute with the "Go Amber" t-shirts https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif She’s a lucky gal to have such a supportive pole family.

I’m definitely going. I knew I was hoarding my frequent flier miles for a reason!
For those who attended last year – did USPDF have an official hotel, and did they offer room discounts? I can only imagine the shenanigans that ensue when you get an entire hotel of pole dancing fanatics together…

GatorGirl4Life – so to answer your question, no, it wasn’t Lisa I heard from!
-
I haven’t received anything either, although I know one "Amateur" who has already received her email saying she didn’t make the cut.
It wasn’t Lisa Wilhoit was it?
I’ve been texting Lisa all morning, but she’s been in class so I haven’t been able to reach her. I’ll be surprised if she doesn’t make it though – she blew a lot of people away at USPDF West!

Amy Guion made it in too!

Leigh Ann Orsi got her acceptance email already for the Pro competition, but no one I know who submitted for Amateur has heard anything yet (including me.)

GatorGirl4Life, finally got a chance to watch your entry (Youtube won’t play at work – aargh) – you did a beautiful job! I loved all your combos on the spinning pole and your jade split. Very strong routine. Good luck!
-
I submitted, but only decided about an hour before the deadline! I was afraid to commit since the Championships take place during my annual trip to Miami (my fiancé plays at a music conference every year) but in the end, I figured if by some stroke of luck I happen to make it, that it was more important than laying out by the beach anyway https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
I didn’t have time to put together a new video, so I submitted one of my old USPDF practice videos. I’m relieved to hear I’m not the only one who opted to recycle though.

Wow, she won the title Pole Fit! That’s so great for Alethea!
And very nice site, by the way https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
