Because I have three friends that will find this WILDLY amusing, I have to share it. On general principle. And if I don't hear from the three of you (via e/voicemail), I'm totally gonna call you out.
Someone, please ask me what I am doing Monday night. As much as I seem the total extrovert, I'm NOT a performer. I don't relish the idea of people looking at me (unless, of course, it's to comment on my shoes...). So, the idea of attending a POLE-DANCING fitness class is alternatively horrifying and...intriguing.
Horrifying because I keep flashing on that one scene from True Lies (which I was going to link but...) when Jamie Lee Curtis (who is awesome) takes a total digger mid-er...uh...performance. Horrifying because people actually do this for a living.
Intriguing...for some really weird reasons. I think I'm one to have grown into my athleticism and, dare I say?, grace: I'm curious to know if I could do it. Everyone I know who has taken these classes has commented on how physically demanding (I know, I know...I couldn't think of a better double entendre) they are. Followed by an aside: "those strippers are in great shape!"
Under 'normal' circumstances...and given my obvious trepidation, I'd probably opt for a core class at the gym. However, the owner of the run store I work at has different ideas. She is hosting this fitness...er...class? demonstration? and asked me to work...it.
I'm blushing already.

I attended one of these pole dancing graduation classes. 1. Yes it looks VERY physically challenging. 2. I am NOT shy but there is no way I am thrusting in a room full of unknowns. and 3. Both Luis and I were completely and totally embarrassed for these ladies...
I'm always optimistic about trying new things. So I went to one of these classes. Just one. And if you go back for more, let me know :) Let's just say my hope that it would be semi-tasteful was, well, wrong. Have fun!
This will be a night Jon will for sure be waiting up for his demo! I'm sure he'll be happy all his hard earned money is coming in use! Go get 'em girl.
Hmmmm. Very interesting. I've never and will never have the guts to try it. I can't wait to hear about it!
Ok. The lowdown:
1. It was a GNO thing sponsored by CK Sports.
2. Remarkably tasteful...well, I guess. I don't really have anything to compare it to.
3. Going back for more? Maybe on Thursday. =). Why do I have to overshare everything?
4. Jodie!
5. Heidi: that's what I thought. I don't like people staring at me. Having said that, it wasn't a big deal.
6. Props to the girls that I thought would comment. The only one missing? AUDREY. Yoo hoo. Audrey?
ok so give us the details of the class. did you take pics? ha
Of course there are pics.
Awesome...I know someone who is interested in trying.
