Menopause has knocked me about. I gained weight, my body changed. My strength dropped. There are moves I can't safely do anymore. A few years ago this is not something I saw coming.

It’s been a hard thing to come to terms with after 17 years of pole and two World Championship titles. But between running the studio and going through menopause, my body changed, and I stopped giving myself any grace about it.

If you've been away from pole and feel like your body has "fallen behind," I wrote something for you.

It's about the "weight vest test" I use with students being too hard on themselves, why muscle memory is real, and what actually helps when you're finding your way back.

Your legs after your first pole class: covered in bruises.
Your brain after your first pole class: is this normal?? Should I stop??

Short answer: yes, it's normal. No, please don't stop.

We call them pole kisses for a reason. They fade. Your grip gets softer. Your confidence gets stronger. And one day you'll look at a bruise and just shrug because it means you tried something new.

New blog post is up now explaining exactly why this happens and what actually helps.
