Pole dancing? Underrated?

[superja]

and I bruise REALLY easily

Yeah the "new move" bruises are a fun and unavoidable part of dancing. You kinda look like a leopard for the first few months.

When I first started dancing my boyfriend at the time would often say things like, "That skirt looks great but... can you wear pants? Cause people are going to think I beat you if they see those."

My bike gives me some epic bruises from the rearsets and kickstand.... my saddle also has this weird metal bars on the sides- for taking the leather off... and I wind up with bruises on the back of my calves from the bike and then inside thigh from the saddle...

I went to the doctor for "the check up" and they gave me the serious strong side eye about the inside thigh bruises- I was like- no really it's from riding- I swear. I look like I've been beat quiet a bit- you look at me hard sideways and I bruise. It's so annoying. I show a lot of leg when I dance and I run into tables with my massive thighs (giggity)... yeah- I make up my legs quiet a bit LMAO.


We got a good joke when I thwapped myself in the jaw practicing clean & jerk- I just told people I was talking to much and my BF just upper cut me.


<<<<does not take life to seriously LMAO

I did pole-dancing for a time and it was great for helping your upper body strength, and yes, your grace. Also an excellent confidence booster and a way to meet some very interesting people. I would highly encourage it :-)

Yay or nay? For and or against? Personally I've never been graceful in my life, even as a runner because my movement is so out of whack;

I've been researching and the ladies doing it have impressive strength maybe some of you ladies are already dancers?

Tips and tricks encouraged.

Sexy, elegant, graceful and expression of femininity. I think this encompasses all of women's aspects...

don't be shy ladies, chime in!
