Hi.

Welcome to my new-ish blog.
I write about a mish-mash of things, whatever takes my fancy, when it takes my fancy. I am working on consistency though… 2022 is my year, right!

I don’t think I’m anyone special, I do love a good story though.
I firmly believe we all have various chapters in our lives that we progress through. We can’t skip pages, each one we turn reveals something new.

I just want to share some of my story without being a slave to providing content or trying to influence anyone about anything.
My opinions are my own and this is my experience, nothing more.

I try to read a lot, usually have music in the background, and I’ll break into spontaneous dance if the song is a good one.

I practice what I preach: kindness and coming from a place of love. I’m a gentle soul for the most part, working on self love, healing, and growth.

I’ve removed a lot of content from over the years giving the website a refresh, keeping things relevant, and building upon new knowledge and experiences

I hope you’ll stay for a bit and enjoy reading me.

Thank you.

I thought I should shoot in here and do a quick update for two reasons. First to update you on classes I've attended and secondly to tell you how I feel about tomorrow.

Last post I did say I would be attending a Flex class shortly after my Taster class, and I did just that. I met our instructor Beatrice who gets called Bea. She is an exotic beauty and of course she's a very bendy chick, makes sense the bendy one does the Flex class, huh.

Bea had us warm up with the ladies about to do a different class and then we split up into our groups. Three of us ladies were with Bea and the rest did what's called a Pole Freak class. The Freak class did an intermediate-ish sexy dance which I enjoyed peeking at while doing our stretching.

Bea took us through a range of stretches aimed at increasing our flexibility overall, but focusing on splits and bends. I think I held my own for an old chick and I was pleased with my results. While I can't quite get down in the splits I'm really not that far off and it's just a matter of practice, effort and time to get the result. Much like anything really, the outcome is proportionate to the effort put in.

I didn't attend any classes last week, sick kids and life just prevented it. But to my credit I did attend five dance classes so my fitness is maintained, but in all honesty I've done nothing to work on my upper body strength.

Now tomorrow, yes tomorrow Saturday the 17th of August 2013 I shall be officially attending my very first Level One Pole Dance lesson/class.

I am beside myself with anticipation, I have a bit of performance anxiety, a lot of shyness - I don't know anyone there at all, but I'm also incredibly excited.

I like that I'm pushing my boundaries, getting out of my comfort zone and engaging in something new. I also like that while 'technically' a middle aged stay home mum and all the clichés that apply to being that, I'm also about to swing myself around a brass pole and move my body in some very hot and very sexy ways. And that is what I'm proud of the most.

I'm not letting stereotypes, clichés, or expectations hold me back. I'm doing this and I'm doing it for me.
