A few months ago, Lily, a fellow Pole Boutique member asked me if I was interested to participate the AAPC pole comps w her in Sept under the doubles category.
I was intrigued as it was something that I've never tried before. However i was reluctant because I would be going on a long holiday with limited time to practice.

Lily's enthusiasm to go ahead w it got me all excited. We met up to decide on a song and the possible tricks we could perform. With support from Pole Boutique's power pole double; Kitty & Rosie and Olivia & Kristina. Tips from Annie & private session and choreo from Rosie.
Venue was held at the Golden Grove Arts Centre. About 40mins away from home. KS went to a nearby Anytime Fitness gym while waiting for my morning rehersal (which was delayed).
Lily & I worked out our timing & lightning.
I was really thankful of the brass pole since Pole Boutique's pole were all brass.

Lily had her makeup artist at the cost of $50 p/p & Sarah was an angel to braid my hair.
Ks coloured my hair pink the day before and my hair got braided for the first time!!

Our team performed first & we sat thru our competitor's performance. Sadly, one of the dancer had injured herself during her doubles. Bravely enough, she went ahead & still performed her solo.
