Defeat Your Dragons with Sex Appeal

Yannori

Some days life just SUCKS.  You try your absolute best, but the world keeps piling on the crap, the constraints, and the accidents of fate that simply aren’t going your way.  Maybe you wore a short skirt to a party on a windy balcony, maybe you broke your favorite pair of heels on a cobblestone sidewalk, or maybe the sprinkler system came on and fried your laptop right before a huge client meeting.

Whatever difficulties you are having, it can feel as if the word “unlucky” is tattooed across your forehead.  Everyone knows you are having a stream of bad luck and there is nothing you can do about it….. RIGHT?

Wrong.  On unlucky days, pull your dragons out of the shadows and into the light. Show the world you aren’t afraid to make mistakes and  discover something new about yourself and your world.  Wear your accidents of fate, like a badge of honor that tells everyone you are finally LIVING instead of being afraid to share your true self. And then, laugh.

Laugh the whole day away. Bad shit is going to happen, so you might as well enjoy the experience, learn, and then laugh it off.  If the wind blows up your skirt, act like Marilyn Monroe the whole night. If your heels break, go barefoot and ask the strongest, sexiest men to carry you. If your laptop gets fried, move the meeting to a poolside resort and throw your laptop in the water to get their attention (check your warranty first though). If you laugh and learn from your dragons, they will gracefully bow at your feet.

Give in to your playful, sensual side and simply ride the day out. Laugh until your sides hurt. Then go home and pole dance until you end up laying on the floor unable to move a muscle. Get it out of your system today and by tomorrow you’ll realize that your “unlucky tattoo” was actually an auspicious dragon of good fortune.

I had to dance for 30 minutes before I defeated my dragons, but it was worth every sweaty second.  BTW, the two songs in this video are Milk by Garbage and Angel of Mine by Newtown Saints.

“Do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight”

These GoGo Boots were made for Pole Dancing

Yannori

Have you ever found a pair of shoes in your closet but couldn’t remember the last time you wore them?  Don’t throw them away, pull them out.  Use them as pole dancing shoes!

In particular, if you’ve got a pair of shiny black GoGo boots that have been wasting away in a corner, find those sexy gems and put them on for your weekly flying session, meaning your pole dancing lessons, of course!

GoGo boots are amazing fun to dance in because they give you all the benefits of platform boots and none of the drawbacks.

GoGo Boots, just like platform boots, are usually made of pleather, that awesome shiny material that helps your feet and legs stick to the pole like glue.  They come in every color imaginable and in a variety of heel sizes, from 1 inch up to 3.5 or even 4 inches, so they make your legs look sexy and show off your curvy feminine thighs at the same time.

On the other hand, platform boots have a hard thick sole that can be difficult for balance, pivot turns, and stability when landing a fast spin (see, it IS a FLYING lesson :)   However, GoGo boots don’t have these drawbacks.  Because the sole of the GoGo boot is thin, you can easily point your toes during pivot turns and spin transitions, giving you the ability to control your landing and twirls into the next movement.  (I hope you’re using your abs too!)

It is so easy to maintain your balance while strutting your sexy walk or using your hips to imply naughty, naughty thoughts.

Check out my youtube video below and you’ll see how much fun I had dancing in GoGo boots.  They gave me the freedom to add in more sensual floorwork, while still giving me the grip I love for inverted pole dancing moves.

Pole Dancing in Heavy Heels

Yannori

This weeks PoDaViAs (pole dancing video assignment) is to dance in a pair of heavy, heavy heels.  Heavy heels force you to ground and center the body while making your movements slower. This will help balance the earth element within you and keep your imagination flowing through your creative center (that’s the hips Baby).  Plus, as I keep saying, Slow is Sexy!

So pick up a pair of tall platforms (with a cone heel if you’re a new pole dancer) or a pair of slick red thigh high boots (Thats HOT!) and strut your stuff.  Remember to practice walking in any new pair of shoes first.

Let the slow, sensual dancing begin!

PS, I’m still in love (hmm or lust ) with A Perfect Circle. So this weeks PoDaViAs is performed to “Hollow” & “Brena.”  You can check out the whole album below!
