Of course I had to create a gothy pole dance, it’s in my blood 🥀🕯️💀

The editing was a bit wonky for the inverted cross move…my cheap pole is having issues spinning, so I have to stop and respin 😂 But I just had to incorporate it, it’s so quintessential goth. 🖤💜

Hazed and dazed, in a confused phase. Life feels Like a bleary maze. . . . Here I go again purging trapped emotions through art. 🥺 And my non-spinning pole is becoming a real problem. 😠 Anyway, that Sad Girl drop was scary! But I want to start doing more of these, they look so dramatic. Need to practice this combo a bit more.

Pole dancing can be so therapeutic; This night I was doing a bit of emotional baggage release.

So I’m still not at the point where I want to be with my transitions, but I’m getting there.

🎶 “Clouds” - Pastel Ghost:

Thinking of you I lie awake Longing to suffocate Spilling my tears as you turn away

Light cast onto a memory Darkens the scenery I can’t know you the way you know me

Visions of you through clouds of smoke Inhale until I choke Filling my lungs but now I’m alone

Cold as an emptiness consumes Rain dripping in my wounds You don’t want me the way I want you

Love this sexy and easy choreo from Cat at a new dance studio I’m trying out. First time actually fully dancing in huge platforms. It takes tremendous control! Even though I’ve been doing pole for 6 months, I decided to take a beginner foundations class at this new spot. It’s a great studio! Let me be your private dancer. Taking song and video requests soon. ❤️‍🔥

Each time I do watch backs I make mental notes on what to smooth out, adjust, work on. We’ve all got to start somewhere, and even though this isn’t what I consider up to my standards, I’m recognizing that I’m slowly progressing, and it’s ok. I’ve come a long way from being the awkward introverted mess.

Hot choreography by the amazing @polephantom ❤️‍🔥 Love her style! I just need my stripper wear and remembering the sequence. 😅 That leg twist suspension was crazy though! 😳

The flow part of class always makes me nervous. 😵‍💫 I blank out and get too much in my head. As a constant over thinker, getting into a flow state with dance has been a struggle.

Three classes in to my pole experience and it was extremely challenging! 😅 I knew my upper body strength was non-existent, but damn, I had no idea how physically demanding pole can be. 😳😬
