HELLLLLLL
Divina Comedia aka The Hell Show came and went, and good times were had.
Here’s a few photos!
Beyond rehearsing for this and two other shows, a lot has been going on… but nothing worth talking about.
So instead, here’s a couple videos of me playing on spin pole and trying not to barf.
(Spin pole is REALLY not my thing as of yet but I’m working on it).
Here’s me:
Attempting an angel spin. (LOVE this song, it’s Active Child, Hanging On)
Attempting a simple thigh grip and being thwarted. (The Weeknd, Earned It, which is of course a cut off the 50 Shades soundtrack which was an ACCIDENT. I’m sorry).
Oh and then my music cut out at one point but I kept going, and when I watched the video later it was kinda funny. (Cee Lo’s Fool for You, and I’m linking to the version with Melonie Fiona because it’s da bomb dot com).
What’s new with everybody?

Bizarre Key Words You People Have Used to Find My Blog
So I finally checked my stats (through the fingers over my eyes) and found this hilarious assortment of search terms. Enjoy them, below, with my comments (because obviously, I can’t leave people looking for answers hanging, can I?!):
Key words:
“how do pole dancers vagina smells like candy?”
I don’t know… and I think you mean strippers, in which case we’re probably talking about Love Spell by Victoria’s Secret (or Champagne and Strawberries. Come on, you know it’s true).
“i pole dance and im still fat”
My condolences?
“pee pee dance from silence of the lamb”
Wait, what?
“buffalo bill silence of the lambs”
Yeah, I know what post we’re talking about.
“spices for stripper names”
That’s very specific of you, but sure: Ginger, Sporty, Baby…
“friends don’t let friends forget leg day”
I know what post that is too.
“id fuck me silence of the lambs”
Haha. It’s funny because it’s true.
“pole sit hurts”
They certainly do.
“wiggle your big toe”
You first!
“slutty girls of edc”
Hey now, thems is fighting words.
“tips for having a nasty and mean pole dancing for your guy”
Like, literally? Maybe shout insults or something at him while dancing?
“do you have to know pole tricks to be an exotic dancer”
Honey, I have no idea, but it probably couldn’t hurt.
“how does spinning pole ride”
Like a fucking BRONCO. In a bad way.
“friends dont let friends not work out legs”
I think I know what you mean, but you’re not quite there yet.
“reverse scissor butterfly kick pole dance”
You just made that up, didn’t you?
“stripper name chart”
Well I can give you some ideas, but I’m not organized enough to have a whole chart. Laminated binder, maybe, chart, no.
And now the real reason for my third post in three days: I just found out that classes are picking up again next Monday!!!!
You know I miss y’all so come see me! 😉
Happy Twirls!

10 Item Pole Wish List (Oh god these are so boring)
So let me safely assume no one cares about this. Right? Oh my god, I’m the one writing this and I barely care lalalalalala so boring.
I’ll be brief:
1. Splits
Self explanatory. I’m pretty close on my left side. And let’s just pretend straddles don’t exist right now, okay?
(Wouldn’t mind Alethea’s two-disc stretching DVDs regardless, hint hint wink wink).
2. Heel pownage
I’d still like to WALK in my new heels. But seriously, I just got legit stripper lucites and I can’t even climb in them, let along do stuff where my feet touch the ground.
3. Straight leg inverts
Yeah, right now I’m kinda doing that crunching thing.
4. Aerial inverts
I actually haven’t attempted this at all but it seems much, much harder, no?
5. All my students from this term to come back
My current regulars are so rad!!! 10/10 stars ladies, you’re so fun and excited to learn it makes me pee a little. Please come back FOREVER 😀
6. A few really awesome-yet-not-slutty dance vids I can safely post somewhere
The ones I’ve shot so far have been a strange combination of awkward and unintentionally raunchy (CAMERA ANGLE CHANGES EVERYTHING).
7. My pole to finally break in
Seriously, how long does this f***ing take?! I come home all excited to try something I just did in the studio and fall on my ass. Or worse, my face. Yes, that happened. Yes, I am ashamed. No, don’t tell my mom.
8. New pole shorts
Black + cotton + Forever 21=mad cheap looking after two washes. I want some from the place I got my shoes but they were like $25. Pole shorts, Y U SO SMALL YET SO EXPENSIVE?! Honesty, there’s so little cloth… I don’t understand.
9. Mastering spin pole
By mastering, I mean not screaming and jumping off. Seriously, why is my g-d pole like one of those rodeo bulls on spin mode?
10. A way to work a Silence of the Lambs reference into my curriculum
“It takes the lotion off its skin or else it falls off the pole again” is not working. Seriously no one gets it. Suggestions? Was EVERYONE born before 1994? I can’t even.
Alright, time to stop entertaining myself and teach (SHAMELESS PLUG) my 7pm spins class and 8pm Intro class tonight.
Just this one and a 6pm Spins on Thursday and we’re done for the year! Gah! Come quick! Save yourselves!
Happy twirls,
Cathy
