Addicted to Pole Dancing

*Sob*, I’m in 100% regret now. Why? Cos I was supposed to go and see the Miss Pole Dance Australia 2008 in Sydney on 10 Oct but the tax surcharge for air tickets was way toooo high and so I didn’t go… I should have gone to see Felix’s jaw-dropping performance!

Taken from the official Miss Pole Dance Australia 2008 Photo Gallery:

How is that possible?

And the famous ballerina!

For more information regarding Felix, visit her web site!

My friend asked me on how to get into the Ballerina, and since I’ve typed quite a long reply, I’m gonna paste it here as some small info.

to get into the ballerina, the easy way:
1) you climb up the pole
2) Cross your leg into a pole seat
3) Move your body to the front of the pole, i.e. the pose on the right (I have no idea on what it is called)
4) Keeping your lower leg on the pole, and make sure it is secure…. hook your lower leg’s foot as shown in the photo.
5) Release your upper leg, point it out as far as you can, and press the pole tight with your armpit!

That’s it! It is very easy to get into this pose but difficult to HOLD on it >.< (you’ll get painful armpit!)

OK, the difficult way (sounds very simple though)
1) Do the back grip spin (forgot that it is called, it’s something like the corkscrew but you put your weaker arm behind your back while spinning)
2) get into the pretzel
3) Hook your “weaker” leg
4) release everything else

Just a small tip here:
I spin with my left hand (though I am a right hander…) so I hook my opposite, i.e. right leg on the pole. And as you can see in the photo you sent me, she spins with her right hand and so she hook her left leg on the pole. But I guess that’s a matter of personal preference…

Hope these helps

Have fun

Ashley, Charlene and Toni all came over for some crazy pole dancing shots on Friday night…. it was nuts, but we did have loads of fun, hee
