Hello!

Well hello there!
Officially a newbie in the blogging world and I thought I'd try my hand it. 
On a daily basis I stumble upon page after page of beauty reviews, hauls and videos as well as healthy eating tips and fitness pointers. All of which I have drawn inspiration from and it has brought me here today and to what will probably a very lengthy post - apologies!

I thought I might start off with something fitness related purely because I am in no way a fitness freak (as my boyf would highly agree with) yet I still do some form of fitness every week. 
About a two years ago at uni, I decided to try my hand at a bit of pole dancing. They had a classes on and me and my flatmate decided it was the perfect non-gym like fun bit of exercise that we needed. For some reason we chose to turn up to the last class that was ever going to grace our university and although our meeting was brief, I absolutely loved it! Girls that had been there from the beginning were already climbing up the pole as though it was a piece of cake, and I was thoroughly jealous! In that hour, we had felt muscles we never knew existed and it was definitely the most gruelling workout I'd had since Year 11 sports day!! Which, baring in mind was at least 3 years prior to this little fitness session. Needless to say, the next day, getting out of bed had suddenly become such a struggle, (not that I was really complaining - typical uni student) even to the point that I was terrified to sneeze for the fear that my once dormant abs might twitch and yell, 'Hello, we exist now!' 
That ache was fabulous and as sadistic as it may sound, the ache after a workout just screams success!! 

A year went by, I'd joined the gym, but never really had the same effect. I was such a fitness nube I never knew how to push myself or get the most out of my workouts, until a friend suggested pole dancing again. I jumped at the chance and we've never looked back.

Currently, I'm now on Level 4 which is sort of an intermediate level of pole dancing/fitness, which means I can now do this...  

Which I am pretty darn proud of as it's one of the scariest moves I've learnt and I can actually do to date. It's called a Cross Ankle Release to some in the 'polling' world, (technical term right there) different schools have different names for moves, but this is a definite move where you have to tell yourself to have a little faith and trust those legs of yours.

If you're doing a bit of pole fit now and then, let me know how it's going and your favourite move!
Take care!!
