I feel sexy.
Checked off the list of things that I never thought I'd do: pole dancing class.
A leader in the the graduate women group's took a class a year ago, got hooked, and has been promoting it since then. She got a group of us to take it (at a discounted rate), so.....
Lessons/Points
1) No mirrors in the studio, because we're too likely to be self-critical. If it feels good, it looks good.
2) Take all the time in the world. (During warm-ups.)
3) Pole tricks, even easy-ish ones, are HARD.
4) I'm going to be sore tomorrow. Can see how this ends up being part of a weekly workout routine.
I'd be tempted to sign-up for one of the real classes. (Meet with the same group once a week for a couple of months in level 1. Then move to level 2....) But super-expensive. And while I do like the sexy feeling, confidence boosting, endorphin happiness, I can get a year of yoga at school for the cost of 2 months of level 1 classes.
And ending the night with blues dancing reminds me, there are other types of sexy dancing too.

have always wanted to try a real class. one of my good girl friends tried to teach me a few moves and i failed completely. i know it's super good exercise though. but boo to it being so pricey!
Such a good workout. (I mean, the warm-up was a good work-out.) We only learned one move. And yes, HORRIBLE at it. But still, kinda awesome fun.
I finally figured out how the other grad students who take classes afford it. Chances are good they're not tithing. I'm okay if that's the reason I can't afford classes.
