more than i ever imagined

when i first thought about buying a pole i figured it was going to be easy & easy to be sexy while twirling around like the pros do. i was wrong! i also thought it was be a nice little workout & good for a change from my normal workout routine. i never would have imagined it would be so hard to just do the basic easy spins & who would have thought you would have to learn to be sexy while poling?!? after having my pole for 16 months i can safely say poling is my favorite thing i have ever done! it is more than a workout, more than a sport, & so much more than i ever imagined it would be! its a way of life! i can spend hours on end in my pole room dancing away, working on the stuff i already know how to do & learning new tricks :) when i'm done i am still thinking about what i can do next time. i am constantly looking at pole videos, looking for new trick to try out, looking at pole shoes, shorts & tops, checking SV & talking about pole to anyone who will listen. pole even changed how i listen to music, i have always loved music but nowadays i don't just listen to it, i choreograph pole dances in my head to it. i recently found out that my schedule is going to be changing & that may mean less time for pole o_O i HATE knowing i may have to miss out on 9+ hours a week of pole! seriously! it breaks my heart to know that i could have to skimp on my pole time. i an worried about how that will effect my body & my growing strength. in the past i have felt like i wasn't learning anything new because my body had hit a plateau but now i am learning new tricks again & i am so much stronger than i have ever been. i just hope my new work schedule can work with my already established pole schedule! i have been stretching 30 mins after pole so i have gotten a lot more flexible than ever :) i used to dislike stretching but now i love it! it feels great to stretch after a few hours of pole time. i need to take a pole dancing trainer course so i can teach newbies & get money while i play so i don't have to work at some lame ass job that i hate :) i really would like to get certified as a personal trainer & also get certified as a pole instructor so i could do that sort of thing for a full time job. i don't have the money to take the classes i need to get certified & even if i did have the money there aren't any places around me that offer pole classes so i would have to have the money to open my own place, & the money to hire someone who could teach advanced classes since i am in no way advanced, lol. someday i will be able to teach advanced pole classes & maybe by then i will have the money to get certified & open a studio :) & i think i would be good at teaching pole dance.
