Those shoes are customized. Here is a good tutorial (though I would recommend taping off the parts you don't want the glitter on and I heard mod podge is a great glue)

Love the picture, love the shoes. I agree it looks like you could get in to that pose from a basic invert (what my studio calls "Snake"). I may have to try it this weekend if I am over this nasty cold.
My big success for this past week was getting into and out of my figure 4 layout (http://poledancedictionary.com/moves/143/lean-back/) without help. This was particularly exciting for me as that's how I hurt my back at the beginning of December and I've been nervous about it ever since! :bigsmile:0 -
Just figured out who the poler is in the shot, its Sergia Louise Anderson. Not sure if that helps anyone!0
-
I always though this was a great pose
ohhh
i want to do that. do you know what it is called so i can watch a video and see how to get into it.
thanks so much!
some one just got a pic done in this pose or one very similar
but i'll get one! 0 -

I am super super proud of myself this week as I finally managed to get my shoulder mount nailed!!! :happy:
My collar bone is realy really hating me at the moment ut I don't care, I'm too pleased with myself! :glasses:0 -
Last pole session I had, it was humid out so I had a really nice sticky pole which is a rarity. I was able to nail the caterpillar climb one-handed. Also finally achieved the flattest jade split I've ever done.0

my success this week was getting back to pole after a 4 month hiatus after I broke my wrist! Back at beginner to get strength up (and boy oh boy am I SORE!) but I can't wait to go back full time!0

Nailed the twisted ballerina this week!!0

What is the twisted ballerina? I haven't been able to find any info on it, but it sounds painful!
I did an Arch Angel/Butterfly for the first time yesterday. 0 -

Amazing! I think I know that one as the "Fish Hook" and I can't do it yet. Congratulations!0
-
Thank you! I couldn't reach my foot for the longest time and stopped trying, but came back to it the other day. You really have to arch your back and push from your chest in order to grab that foot.0
-
still no handspring - it is becoming my NEMESIS!!!
but
i brass monkeyed ( from cross ankle release, shoulder mount and kicking up from floor)
just need to remember to point toes now!
woo hoo.
also
I did the Titanic! so happy - hands off for about 5 seconds but I'll take it!0 -
you ladies are awesome.. I'm still pretty new and am just happy when I can get a basic spin :-) It's fun seeing all you have accomplished!0
-
Backwards Ayesha!
does happy dance whilst rubbing elbow furiously!0 -
I have been doing pole for about 3 years now and finally managed my nemesis the Shoulder Mount a few weeks ago, I still kick up though and do it with a twisted grip. This came as a big yay because I had just cracked superman a few weeks before that! Also just managed to do catterpillar, always struggled with hooking the elbow but just managed a couple this week. Working on handspring, extended butterfly & allegra next! I can feel I am getting stronger as I am trying to loose more weight and exercise more. Also have been doing olympic hoops and silks recently, so much fun!0

congratulations on your success! keep at it!
my success for the week. was walking to the changing rooms and someone pointed out that the could (just) see a 2pack on me! Big smile!
my pole success - starting to find the balance in handspring and can hold for a few seconds . this move is my nemesis!0 -
I hope no one minds me reviving this thread.
I'm so happy--I just got back from a back-to-back session of pole fit and level 1. I can't tell you the last time I exercised at that intensity for that duration (2.5 hours). It makes me feel so strong and fit!
Also, my teacher told me that I was ready to make my "abschied"--performance to move up to the next level! Next week, I'm going to do it!
I forgot to add...great job on all the previously posted successes! You all amaze me and I hope I can do some of these things someday! 0 -
I'm still a beginner and excited about being able to climb, pole sit, do a Superman, etc.
You ladies do some AMAZING things! Can't wait until I get there!0 -
@bradificatio
every sucess is worth celebrating - we all started ther and no matter how far (or not) we are on the journey this page is about celebrating those moves we love and those moves that niggle and haunt us.
Congratulations!0 -
Finally had the courage to do a full remi sit layback! Been doing the remi sit for forever, but always chickened out on the layback.

I auditioned for my studio's show, Rhinestone Cowgirls Pole and Burlesque Show, this past Sunday and made it!!!
This is a for reals show, not the little studio parties I usually perform at, but a thing people pay a decent amount to eat dinner at and watch. *eep* I'm super nervous but also super excited!
