All be worth it in the end!

Ever since late May 2013, i decided to take that one step out and join the pole dance in-house studio showcase, me and my partner know each other from this duo pole dance arrangement and we have been working hard on our routine.  There was one moment i worried that i need to give this up cause of my toe injury in late June.  Taking the practice off 3 weeks really not a good idea.  But, luckily, i still able to take this challenge afterall. Thanks my lovely toe for the co-operation! LOL

Remember years ago, i used to performed on stage, not big but means a lot to me.
I believed that everyone have their dream, no matter it is big or small, no one can really judge anyway.  To be able to perform on stage is one of my dreams, and i made it. Even it is not a big stage.

So, story is, i haven’t been dance on stage for a while, i love that feeling of keep working hard for one thing, that you actually passionate in.  Not everyone will understand how much that mean to me, but the truth is. IT DO means A LOT to me. Even tho i feel so tired after all the training and practice, or i almost give all my time to it and have my hands getting rough and callus and also the sore back now.  I can’t wait the day come, to dance.  Just because i know how much effort i have put into this.

Dry hand grip with me all these days....

“No Pain, No Gain”. I know it and thanks someone reminding me just at the moment i was questioning myself if i have pushed myself too much. This is Maggie May: either not doing that or have to try my best.
I hope, the one who given the name Maggie May will be there to understand more about me, to support me. It will mean A LOT more to me.

I really hope that everyone who put an effort to this showcase will enjoy the moment that night.

Aug 3rd. The day we worked hard and waiting for.

Over the boredom

This week just seems so long and time pass really slow like a snail.. is it because of me or really the sucks weather?

Thanks God that i still have all kind of dancing that brighten up my  life a bit, and all my great dancemates! Aside from pole and all kind of aerial thingy, i still insist my jazz hiphop, the instructor just so much positive energy and fun to dance with. (and coz she is from taiwan, so i can So definitely practice my Mandarin! )

And for sure, thanks my lovely dancemate brought me this little souvenir from Taiwan too. Sorry for those Bloggers who dunno Chinese, the meaning for this is: you can be busy for your dream, but you cant forget your dream coz you are too busy.
At the back of this souvenir, she wrote “Shine on stage 2013”.   A few simple words, but that touched me.

dream

Remember 2 years ago i had this dancing showcase of Street jazz, it named as “Shine on Stage”. i was always looking forward to be shine on stage again this year.  But then for some reason, i am so into Pole dancing now, and take the pole showcase instead.  So, it seems a bit sad that i cannot shine on stage, but then, think about it, i disagree myself and believe that:
As long as you shine, everywhere is your owe Stage.  This year, i am definitely going to “Shine on Pole”.

Another thing that help me over the boredom in office…. ofcoz my fav. Lemon Tea!  This is just simple or maybe kinda consider as junk food, too sugary. but then….. I DONT CARE! i need something to cheer myself up!
(oopppsss please ignore the face that i bite the straw like crazy lol. i know thats a real bad habit 😛 )

CHEERS!!

and my Happy Corner at work : )

More Challenges

Since i have join the current dancing studio for pole dancing, more and more new stuffs i have tried and actually it is really challenging and fun!

for Pole, i make myself to try more invert move, im really happy for all these coz after the toe’s dislocated, i still kinda have the fear whenever i make similar move. so… happy Gemini and Cross Knee Release!!!

one of the invert move: Gemini

Cross Knee release

Cross Knee release

By releasing both hands is quiet scary in the first try! All these moves indeed make me reckon Pole dance is something that train you to “trust yourself”! at least you seriously have to trust your legs that can support your whole body!  LOL

Aside from more advance pole moves, i dare myself as a superman … oh maybe wonder woman is better 😛
Aerial silk is really so much fun and beautiful. like a fairy, you are just flying around by that silk.  It actually need a “TOTAL-ABSOLUTLY” strong arms for this aerial silk thing. OMG! my arms are like…… Popeye the sailor Man!  I need the spinach please!! LOL

Aerial Silk  -  ready for the excitement!!

Aerial Silk – ready for the excitement!! the 360 degrees turn is coming up!

Ohhhhh! also the Aerial Hoop! Did i at least look professional? That’s my first class! (but seriously, its not that easy as you imagine to get on the hoop from the floor….. rolling your body all the way back and hook …Geezzz….. not to mentioned…)

my first Aerial hoop class :)
