April 2020 Student of the Month: Sally

When did you start your pole journey?
I have been a regular at Pole Pressure for 6 months.

Why did you decide to try pole dancing?
I have never tried pole dancing, because it looks like it hurts and I am a weenie.

What do you love most about pole dancing?
I am not a pole dancer but I am an aerialist, so I will tell you what I love most about aerialing. I love performing - planning, choreographing, practicing, tweaking, the part where I think I might hate the piece I'm working on and would be better off throwing everything out and starting from scratch, and of course, the performance high.

Why do you love Pole Pressure?
I started coming to Pole Pressure for the handstand classes, but I'm branching out into other classes now.  I like the variety. My current livestream favorites are Handstands, Deep Stretch & Flexibility, Spine Love, and COVID-19 Bootcamp.

What are some of your goals for this year?
To kick up into a handstand against the wall.  I have to get over my fear that I will kick up too hard and bust through the wall like the kool-aid man.

What motivates you to train?
Right now, offsetting my quarantine diet.
