Stars are Coming to Town!
OMG!!! This is why I look forward to Miss Pole Dance Australia every year, the workshops! And this year the line up is even bigger and better than ever before with not only the legendary Felix Cane, but also the oh so very very sexy Alethea Austin and the infamous Wendy Traskos from New York Pole Dancing!
Unfortunately there are only four workshops on offer so be quick and don't miss out (I've already booked my spots! argh crap, I better start training...)
For dates and prices see my Competitions and Events Page and Bobbis Pole Studio NSW.
However the good news doesn't end there, if you happen to miss out on these amazing workshops you still have today to register for Summer Pole Camp 2010 in Surfers Paradise to learn from Jenyne Butterfly!
I know, it's all your pole dreams come true.

One Down, One To Go!
Last Saturday, pole dancers around the Asia Pacific, including Japan and Thailand, competed for the first time at the Asia Pacific Pole Dance Championships 2010 in Brisbane.
The Championships was a huge success and showcased some amazing upcoming pole dancers, especially the "Felix like" Nadia from New Zealand who took out the title for the Womens Freestyle. There was even a successful proposal by the Sponsors Choice Open Pairs, Masayo and Kazuya!
The APDC is the rival to Miss Pole Dance Australia even though neither organisation would see themselves as such because of how vastly different the two competitions are and rightly so.
APD has focused on making pole dancing mainstream by emphasising pole dancing as a sport. The APDC included four different divisions, Freestyles Mens, Open Pairs, Freestlye Womens, and Classic. The Classic division (won by moi!) is the most "family friendly", akin to a gymnastics competition with required moves, a timed aerial combination and restrictions on music and costume. The Mens Freestyle division was the most popular, with women screaming their heads off and offering to have the children of title winner Dunk-One. The Open Pairs division was a close follower in the popularity stakes with the debut of Allure (Miss Suzie Q and Toby J) in their first competition and likely to be their last - at least until 2012 - as they took home one of the four titles won by Suzie Q Pole Studio.
In contrast, MPDA, which is open only to women and only has one costume restriction that being mandatory high heels and no boots, attracts a more "traditional" style of pole dancing. MPDA has helped to launch the international pole careers of some the world's best pole dancers and undoubtedly continues to set a new standard of pole in the international community.
So with one competition down there's one to go and I'm glad to say that I'm not in it!
This year is going to be BIG with the best pole dancers in Australia competing against one another to go to the Worlds. The dancers to beat this year are undoubtedly Felix Caine, Miss Suzie Q and Chelle - see why I'm glad I'm not in it!
Felix is obviously going to bring her famous Spatchcock, perfect Ballerina and hopefully her new combo that she hinted to on facebook, to the stage.
Miss Suzie Q, who won Miss Pole Dance NSW again, will be hard to beat with her polished style and endlessly entertaining performances.
However, Chelle is the one to look out for! You've probably already seen Chelle and her guns on Australia's Got Talent as one of the Pure Pole Angels, and if you have you know that she's going to show off some of the most death defying tricks, combining both strength and flexibility.
If you haven't already got your tickets for MPDA you've probably already missed out! These tickets sell out in days so be quick and go to Ticketek because this year is probably going to see the best performances so far in the MPDA history!
