RPole Snap and Win competition

Ania Pole Snap and Win winner

We asked her about the photograph she submitted

The photographer is Michal Kosakowsky

The photographs are team work, we both collaborated, i don’t remember who exactly suggested to move the pole to that glass windows, but opposite was the graffiti area, where we intend to take pictures at. `Then we noticed a nice reflection in the glass windows, and moved there. We had been experimenting, for example I developed the pole positions, and Michal worked with the unusual angles.

The shoes I am wearing are Japanese Tabi, They are very comfortable, light weight and look unusual . Japanese farmers use to use them to climb up the trees. I been doing a few butch performances wearing them, when performed outdoors, because they are protecting the foot, and at the same time the feet  movements are not restricted, and you feel like you not wearing any shoes. They also made me feel in a samurai warier or ninja spirit  -  it’s a right mood, which usually helps with the most complicated pole tricks.
The other sport clothes I was wearing was because i wanted to focus on acrobatic, and the sport  side of the pole dance and also because the photo shot was outdoors, it made me feel a bit more safe rather than if I wear a bikini or skimpier clothing

On the day of the photo shoot we had been taking lots of pictures, may be more than 500 (Michal probably knows the exact number, for me I was just enjoying the pole J and most of the photos were amazing, because he is a great photographer, and we tried lots of different locations and ideas!

What I would like to say to the reader is POLE PASSION FITNESS FOREVER! The best way to get fit, and to get healthy, or to get clever, or to get sexier, to get anything you want is to do something you have real passion for.  Thanks to Kay and Steve and Pole Passion for organising this ‘Snap and win’ competition, amazing prize! And for discovering, developing and moving pole fitness forward, which I have a great passion for.

Highlights of the Pole Passion and Burlesque Instructor training

Highlights of the Pole Passion Pole & Burlesque Instructor training

Pole Passion’s foundations were established in the Pole industry from its birth here in the UK since the early 2000’s before it was desired as a fitness form and most definitely before it was considered as one of the new ideas for thousands of ladies and some men, across the world to keep healthy and active while having great challenging fun.

Founder Kay Penney, passionate about all things fitness, decided to think out of the box and design something new for the fitness industry. Of course it didn’t start out like that as Kay found the techniques on and around the pole a personal challenge when looking for something to rekindle her figure and mental positivity, after having given birth of her third child. A mammoth and almost impossible task at that time, especially as the fitness consultant she employed to help her, after one year, told her Pole Dance and Fitness  would not be accepted or accredited in the fitness industry and IF they were,!!  it would take at least 8 years or so – Fuelled by those words, Kay, what some two years later, had Pole Passion’s comprehensive fitness Instructor level 1 and Advanced level 2 courses accredited by REP’s  (Register of Exercise Professionals) the route of all European fitness professionals that are monitored yearly and  governed by strict code of conducts.  Later published, Elite Accredited Level 3 and Burlesque for Fitness accredited courses, now also offered.

Pole Passion today is one of the most highly recognised Pole Training Providers and Brands in the pole world – developing comprehensive courses with great, comprehensive content and excellent value for money.  One day courses costing as little as £150, also offering  discounts if more than one course is booked at the same time too. Students have attended as far from the USA, Russia, Europe, Ireland and Scotland to learn the Pole Passion way.  Priding themselves on being thorough and progressing  each individual  student and instructor to their next stage, before, during and after they have attended our courses, whether an experienced instructor already with  a fitness and dance back grounds looking for the well-deserved credibility or whether totally new to fitness, dance and or even the pole 

What are the main benefits of becoming internationally Pole Sport accredited?

The main benefits of becoming accredited have to be by far the credibility aspect and industry recognition in what you do is recognised and awarded to the highest of industry awards not to mention the fact your insurance will be cheaper and valid too.  You will have the confidence and peace of mind you are teaching safely, correctly and effectively:-  learning ways of progressing and supporting your participants without causing possible delayed injury or incorrect techniques.

Own your own part time pole business

So you want to start your own pole business?

A typical email we receive

I have been taking classes just for a little while maybe 6 months or so,
but I wanted to start my own pole business as there is nothing like you offer in my area. I am in Dallas Texas USA and  I have a business degree
No insurance or licenses yet but just gathering information at this point. – hope you can help.

Hi Pole friend,

Well the most important thing is to get qualified in pole! It is important that you are highly skilled and knowledgeable in teaching your chosen field to avoid injuries to not only yourself but most importantly to that of your students. We at Pole Passion offer accredited and certified International instructor training certifications and qualifications

This way you know what you’re teaching is correct, safely and effectively teaching techniques

Then think about the right pole for you, your customers (your students) and your venue – there are many on the market, some suitable for just purely light domestic use and some for teaching professionally on – we at Pole Passion highly recommend the quality, flexibility and light weight portability of the free Standing RPoles the only pole in the world that is CE marked and certified.

www.r-polefitness.com

 and incredibly portable unlike others that claim they are but are really too heavy!!

Once you have decided on your poles and how many you would like to teach from the next step is to find a suitable venue.

We have many stipulations and recommendations on our instructor training courses that will support you in your venue choice.

Once you have these things in place think about insurance, business details such as bank accounts, accountant/book keeper, computers, telephone and communication systems

Then it’s down to marketing your new classes professionally and sensitively (as people do tend to wrongly judge if the marketing isn’t correctly done!)

Once you have your customers queuing at your door and your registers full you must focus on yourself too – so that you keep one step ahead of your students!

Focus on attending lots of master classes, competitions (even entering some maybe) and keeping your student coming back for more.  We own and operate the largest national championships Miss Pole Dance UK and World Pole Dance  www.worldpoledance.com

Now having said all that we are happy to consider you for a Pole Passion License in Dallas Texas J If you are an exceptional individual who like to work hard and is passionate about people and their health goals. You would however have to attend our instructor training too, so a trip to the UK maybe or if you would like to work along side us then email us know as we will be happy to come to you?

Kay@passion-fitness.com

http://www.polepassion.com/fitness/become-instructor/

I hope the above has helped lots and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions

How do I structure a pole fitness class?

How do I structure a class when teaching POLE FITNESS

Refer to section taken from International Instructor Training Pole Passion accredited Level 1 instructor training Course

Refer to the work book part 1 level 1

‘Examples weekly 1hr lesson plans

Beginner course’

Within the two pages you will find examples of what we are looking for, only you will be required to do 4 x 1hr sessions for your homework and not only two that is listed in the book

Objective - listing the moves just briefly (you can refer to the core moves booklet too) also distributed on Level one REP’s accredited Pole Passion Instructor training course.

The time taken to teaching moves, tricks and spins vary from participant to participant according to their level and ability (flexibility and coordination)

In my class structure i generally have 5-6 core moves per week on paper (or now in my head) to work from.

Ensure the moves scheduled encompass a variety of muscles over the whole body so that overload of a specific muscle does not happen, creating muscle cramps and spasms

Some weeks I only use two of the planned moves during the session, because I maybe combining them with other flowing transitions and poses. If the move is difficult to master due to their flexibility or coordination 2/3 of the planned moves will be attempted and achieved in which case you can carry those moves forward to the following teachings!!

Or on the other hand if the participants pick the moves up really quickly I like to have other moves I can use too which combine with the moves I have just taught. 

Sometimes I have even been asked to show a move that is similar or a variation that is not on my plan.  I am quite happy to add that one in too if it works well with the class structure I have scheduled.

Just be careful when planning you don't do (for example) - 3/4 moves off one hand grip as this may create muscle strain 

or spin after spin, making the participants feel dizzy and unsafe,

The split grip for beginners is especially hard on the forearms and wrist so you may only wish to put 5 minutes of learning this move on your plan (carousel spin) rather than 15 minutes

Healthy diets for pole dancers

Keep healthy snacks in convenient places at all times, such as your desk drawer, the car glove compartment or your pole bag!!

I often prepare raw vegetables such as carrots or sliced apples in the morning and put them in a bag or small pot and put peanut butter or hummus in a small container.

This way, you'll always have a healthy, convenient snack ready to eat when you begin feeling hungry. Which if you are like me quite often, this keeps your energy level up and your metabolism working efficiently, and will prevent you from losing control later in the day.

How long will it take me to be that good?

Is the pole old or worn out is that why I can’t hold on any more?

Nico Modestine teaches the Spatchcock

Learn the SPATCHCOCK move and techniques with Nico’s Master Classes

The move many of us only dream of!

So where did it come from and where was it first seen

For many of us it was Felix Cane in the summer of 2009 who famously executed it initially during the World Pole Dance championships in Jamaica for public viewing during her world class performance  www.worldpoledance.com

A wondrous account of super human flexibility with the over stretch of the legs and back

So what does the word mean?

It is how cooks prepare an uncooked chicken by flattening it on the grill plate

Glad you asked now ??  no means a sexy or glamorous name choice !!

However we must not let this somewhat unflattering choice off label misinterpret the skill and hyper extension required for this move

This move of course always look so much more amazing on a spinney pole
