One year ago today I walked into the doors of Boulder Spirals in Boulder Colorado into a room with 4 girls wearing booty shorts and sports bras, climbing 14 foot poles.
I was nervous and enthralled all at once.
I took an intro to pole class with my friend, and the amazing and beautiful platinum blonde Colfax Chrissy taught us our very first class. She was wearing blue brazil shorts and clear 7 inch high heels.
I was instantly hooked and knew that I had to come again.
Two weeks later I bought my very own pole and set it up in my house.
I remember asking my sister to take photos of me whenever I started feeling more confident and she soon got tired of how often I wanted to capture new moves because I just kept learning them everyday.
Since the day I went to Boulder Spirals I have looked up pole tutorial videos, studied pole stars, watched competitions and performances, and have devoted my entire life and energy into pole.
What I eat, who I hang out with, what I do with my time, why I work out, and what I have dreams for all surround pole.
Never in my life would I have imagined having such a powerful thing to come out of no where and change everyday of my life forever.
I am so grateful that I came to Boulder because I know that I otherwise wouldn't have probably heard about pole for another 15 years.
I couldn't imagine anything else coming into my life that could be better or make me happier and healthier.
This pole world has the best people I've ever met.
It's a community of mostly women who are supportive, and loving, and caring.
I feel more confident, strong, healthy, and happier than I ever have in my life.
I am so excited to continue to grow, to meet more people, to discover, and to bring more people into the amazing lifestyle.
These are some of the first photos on the pole I ever took:
