Appreciating a Good Stretch

I’ve been going to bendy babe a lot more recently and not only have I been learning more about different ways to stretch and use different tools to get a good stretch. But I’ve also just been appreciating stretching out my body a whole lot more! I’ve been going to the...

More than a Normal Gym

Pole dancing was never something I thought I would be good at. The stereotype is of course that you are a stripper and it’s more of a sexy dance routine than anything else. I was worried going in that I would be super awkward at it because I have horrible rhythm and...

Becoming a Pole-erina

​It was always a dream of mine to become a dancer of some sort. As a kid I was torn between making a career out of art or something that my parents would have called “legit”. I looked into going to college up at Marquette Michigan and joining their dance team, but my...

Develop a Pole Family

When I started my journey I was nervous of what other girls would think, and was a little bit nervous there may be drama. That is not the case at Aerial Dance. Instructors and sometimes your fellow classmates lift you up, and cheer you on. Pole dancing is a community,...

Gratitude for What I Found

I remember like it was yesterday stumbling across Aerial Dance. I was new to Green Bay and nearly lost my mind with boredom. I decided to do some research on dance in the area, Aerial Dance instantly caught my attention. Dance has always been my first love, it’s...

It’s Okay to Say “Not Today”

I’ve been going to the studio a lot more this month. With increased visits to the studio, it means more wear and tear on your body, meaning being sore a lot more often. It’s important to listen to your body when you’re sore but if I’m being honest I’m not always the...
