2012 Las Vegas Pole Expo Pole-a-palooza!

Aloha Polers and Pole Lovers!!!  It is Friday and still more things to share about the Pole Expo!  On the first night of the Pole Expo they had the 5th Annual Pole-a-Palooza at the Bank!

We were unable to attend but from the You Tube Videos and comments that day after...it was awesome!  In Alethea Austin's workshop the next morning she gave us a little insiders view of what went on since she entered the contest too!  She said it was worth a try since the prize was so high.....why not!  So, true why not when you are as awesome as she is!  We are working on gathering You Tube Videos of the Pole-a-Palooza and will have them on our You Tube Video.  If you have not yet subscribed, please do at http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv5vX4w50MoWEz319fW0MiQ?feature=mhee.  We did find out who the awesomesauce winners were and they are.........

First Place CHARLEE Wagner!!

Second Place ALETHEA AUSTIN!!

They said that the competition was so close and so awesome that they actually split the money up amongst the winners and with just the first and second winners announced I could see why!  

Have a great Friday and awesome weekend!

Bendability with Amy Guion!!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!  I know I keep saying this but the 2012 Las Vegas Pole Expo was filled with so many wonderful things that I HAVE to share with everyone that was not there:)!  Today we feature Bendability with Amy Guion!!

Not only is Amy Guion an awesome Polefessional and such a lil' cutie but she is also extremely talented and flexible!

At the Pole Expo we were all lucky enough to be able to enjoy Amy Guion's FREE workshops on both days!  She did a Morning Stretch workshop on both days that were PACKED with people wanting to get their stretch on with Amy:)!

A little about Amy straight from her Bendability Fitness website:):

Amy is a classically trained dancer and has been apart of Pole Fitness since 2007.  She graduated from Loyola Marymount University with a bachelors in natural science (a program that emphasizes anatomy, kinesiology, exercise science and nutrition).  Her background has lead her to create her own series of instructional DVD's to help us all increase our strength and flexibility and assist in injury prevention and recovery!

I have already put in an order for her DVD Set and can't wait to start!  From her very educational workshop at the Pole Expo I know this will be well worth it for my goals in strengthening and increasing my flexibility.  I'm excited and will keep you all posted on results!!!  If you are interested or want to check out what she has available her website is:

http://www.amyguion.com/

Check her out!  She has cute apparel as well that we all got while at the Pole Expo too:)!  You can also check out the Bendability You Tube channel at:

The Bendability You Tube channel will give you a little taste of what her DVD set will have to offer:).

Get it on and have a great day!

Arbonne with Pamela Malone Hughes!

Aloha Polers and Pole Supporters!!  It's Wednesday and yes just a bit more recap and highlights from the awesome 2012 Las Vegas Pole Expo!  While attending and being a vendor at the Pole Expo we meet so many wonderful friends and fellow vendors aka friends as well;)!  Today we would like to highlight our next door neighbors throughout the complete Pole Expo, Arbonne with Pamela Malone Hughes!  Not only were they, Pamela and her husband, awesome people but they had such an awesome product to offer called Arbonne!

 

We were lucky to score some samples and gave it a try when we finally got home and settled down....and found the lost samples in the mound of laundry and new goodies we brought back from the expo lol!  I was one of the lucky one that got to try out the RE9 Advanced line and let me tell you I hate spending so much time on these types of things!  But I figured, really...what do you have to lose!  I gave it a try for a week and fell in LOVE!!  They say you will see a difference in 24 hours and I was a bit skeptical of that because that is fast.  I didn't necessarily see a difference (my fault, I should have paid more attention to that LOL) but felt a WORLD of difference after the week and even the first day!  it did take me some getting used to and labeling on what went first, second and what not but after the second day I was pro since there is a regimen for the morning and night and soon enough it took no time!  My skin feel great!  I have used many moisturizers in the past and all seemed to leave me quite oily and I really thought that my face was just extra oily but now am starting to think that it was the type of product I was using.  The Arbonne RE9 Advanced line left me feeling Fab all day and all night:)!  After I fell in love I looked into their products more and saw that they had a Men's line too!  Yay!  If you are interested or even have questions go ahead and contact Pamela on her Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/pamela.m.hughes.92 and she would be more than happy to help and explain more about this wonderful product!

Ladies, it is NEVER too late or too early to start a regimen like this, she will show you success photos that prove that!

Well, take care and happy Hump Day!!!
