    May 29, 2009 / 2 Comments

    You and I love pole dancing.  We love building a strong body and sexy abs.  We love the sensual swirls and fabulous flying twirls around a smooth metal pole.  And if you want to be an awesome pole dancer, I already know that you practice, practice, practice.  But, if you are skipping your warm-up before your in home pole dancing session, you could be damaging your body and missing out on an amazing Sensual Ritual. Playful Plans A warm-up is defined as “the preparation period for a specific workout” and many people find the traditional fitness warm-up boring or monotonous.  (I certainly do.)  However, the purpose of the wamup, to…

    How To Ask the Wizard of Oz for Luscious Abs & Stronger Inverts

    May 20, 2009 / 3 Comments

    Do you want stronger, more controlled inverts? Do you hate doing boring ab crunches but want the healthy core necessary for advanced pole tricks? I’ve got the answer.  The secret to sexy, powerful abs that WILL give you a beautiful, flowing, seamless invert is something called the Full Hurricane.  This awesome and deeply sensual movement shares its roots with every inherently feminine dancing style, whether its Belly Dancing, African Dance, or Exotic Stripping.  It is undeniably erotic, engaging, and has plenty of playful variations (which I’ll talk about in a minute). “Todo, I’ve a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore” – Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz Before you can…

    Get Rid of Shyness & Dance with Confidence

    May 13, 2009 / 2 Comments

    Is your dancing inhibited? Do you get anxious when performing in front of a group, even in your pole class? Are you afraid to dance for you lover?  Are you afraid to dance in front the mirror? Make A Wish You’re not alone.  Many of my beginner students are afraid to let go of their inhibitions and express their sensual nature through movement.  And one of my readers recently asked “I was wondering if you had any advise on getting over the whole embarrassing/shy thing.” Happily, overcoming your performance anxiety is absolutely possible for everyone. And the best part is that, the confidence you gain while dancing will propagate into…

    May 4, 2009 / 2 Comments

    Do you ever find yourself in a Blue Mood?  You can’t seem to shake that sad feeling and you just want to wallow around in it. Maybe you’re absolutely green with jealousy that you got passed over for that promotion. Or perhaps your seething red with anger? Turning purple from withheld passion? Face ashen gray with fear? Walking around under a black cloud? Sometimes you feel permeated by a color that fills you up and eats at your bones.  (okay maybe that’s a bit harsh, but you get the picture).  When the mood is too hard to fight off, embrace it instead.  By embracing the mood, you stop wasting energy…
