1. Tell us something about yourself! What do you enjoy doing outside of RGF?
I am 51 and have a 19 year old daughter who is a sophomore in college. I work in non profit finance and volunteer with my church youth group. Live music is my favorite thing, and I’m excited to get back to concerts. I am a die-hard White Sox fan.
2. What brought you to RGF?
Four years ago, a couple of my neighbors said they were going to try the fitness place down the street. I said I would go with, but there’s no way I was doing pole! After a year of hammocks, I decided to try different classes and fell in love with pole.
3. What inspires you?
Kind people inspire me. I have loved every instructor I have had at RGF, and I can still always hear Laurial in the back of my head saying “yes, you can.”
4. What is your favorite thing about pole/aerial dance?
The supportive community is amazing. Going to class makes any day better. Seeing and feeling yourself progress each week is such a great confidence boost, especially doing something that’s so unique, and at my age – and I love being upside down and spinning!
