The World’s Greatest Pole Dancer - Page 72

My name is Joel. I’m 47 married with two kids. My son is 19, my daughter 12. My wife teaches high school. I work as a reviewer of Long Term Care Facilities and other medical vendors. I like music, reading, French language, politics (left of center–but I’ll listen to any argument–got friends on the Right and the Left!). I’m not formally religious, but open and respectful of others beliefs about spiritual and philosphical matters.

 

Practice got cut short when Laurie called for dinner, but I got the pose up twice for a second or two. Now I’m stuffed and I can’t practice because she made biscuits and honey and I had four of them and a beer, too!

 

I want to do the "Turn" next–you know–that thing where you bring your torso around the pole in the inverted crucifix from front to back. I tried it, sort of got it–then I realized I didn’t know what the heck you’re supposed to do next! Fall off? Well, that’s exactly what happened–but it was nicely controlled fall from a pole cat kind of grip.

 

I had just finished 2 hours of practicing and I was really knackered!
(There, I’ve always wanted to use that great British word in a narrative)
