This year for the Flying High Student Showcase, and Flying High’s 10 year anniversary, the instructors did an absolutely adorable routine to a Spice Girls medley (Stop, Wannabe and Spice Up Your Life). We chose the Spice Girls for this special year’s showcase because we thought they perfectly represent fun, friendship, cheekiness, and the general Girl Power and badassery that comes with pole.
Here’s the gorgeous shots by Bri!
For my solo, I danced to the sassy “I hate your ex girlfriend” by BANKS, I just couldn’t stop thinking about doing a routine to this song when Off With Her Head came out! It was definitely out of my comfort zone, and a style/character I’m not usually comfortable with, but what better way to celebrate the 10 year anniversary showcase. Props to the Goodr sunglasses that did not budge! I never want to blow a bubble with gum ever again.
BANKS is one of my favourite artists, her voice is so powerful and her music just makes me feel like (pole) dancing, which is a grea segue into our little Sydney trip to see BANKS at the Enmore Theatre! It was an absolutely fantastic show, really intimate with fantastic choreography and a crowd that sang all the words to ever song. I absolutely loved it! I surprised myself with some tears during Contaminated and Beggin for Thread, and lost it when I Hate Your Ex Girlfriend was the finale. I love her even more now if that’s possible!
We stayed the weekend in Sydney in Newtown and enjoyed the food and drinks scene, with standouts being all of the gluten free food at Maiz, gluten free doughnuts at Comeco Food Cafe (I haven’t had a jam doughnut for about 20 years and this one was incredible), the martinis and curry msg popcorn at Bar Planet, the Mar-tinnies and gigantic sandwich at Continental Deli, the potato cubes at Uncanny, and beer at The Newtown Hotel, Grifter Brewery and The Vic
And some other bits and pieces from the last couple of months, starting with some pottery at Perth Pottery Co (haven’t got our creations back yet, they’re still being dried and fired):
We nailed the dress up brief for Kaylie and Brendan’s 80’s themed joint 40th, even the cupcakes and Rubik’s cube nails hit it!
RUFUS DU SOL at RAC Arena was mind-blowing, I can’t believe how good these guys are live, we had an absolute blast with Amy and Dermot!
We saw Cats which was… an experience. Everyone we mentioned it to warned us it was weird, and it did not disappoint! Claire explained it perfectly - it’s basically a really elaborate roll call for a bunch of cats, and the magical Mr Mistoffelees wasn’t even really that magical.
Fremantle Beerfest was a lovely day out in Freo as usual, although we’re still waiting for summer to actually come.
