“It’s not what you think…”

When we say it’s not what you think this is what we mean…

We’re not talking about being anti-stripper or anti-sexy, we are all about that shit… We love booty cheeks here. And don’t get us wrong, you will absolutely get back in touch with your sensuality and sexuality; but what we mean when we say “it’s not what you think”… is speaking directly to the pre-judgment you’re putting on yourself and your unexplored abilities before you even allow yourself to believe you could step into a class like this and experience joy pleasure or hell, even success.

We gotta stop that shit.

Because here’s the thing… You are the creators of your own reality. YOU get to determine what is successful and what is enjoyable and what is pleasurable for you. But some of us aren’t ready to hear that because that means we have to take full responsibility for our lives and everything that we make of them… and that’s some real shit. 

If you’re not interested in sensual movement or pole dance because you don’t like to sweat or hate music or maybe ya don’t like being surrounded by amazing women… Then yeah maybe this isn’t the right space for you…but if I hear one more person tell me they need to go to the gym to get in shape before they TRY an intro class, I’m going to have a lot more to say...

If you’re not interested, you’re not interested and we totally respect that too. The thought of running a mile for fun makes me want to cry. But If you’re making excuses as a way to coddle or suppress the actual feelings you’re experiencing about yourself, your body, your sexuality your sensuality, then this is 100% the place and energetic exchange that you need create space for… and for the love of sweet baby jesus, please do not go to the gym to “get into shape“ before you come here. That is so not what we are about… in fact it’s exactly the opposite of what we are about. 

Thrive is so much more than the athletic by product that happens as a result of a weekly practice of movement and pole dancing- it’s about learning how to step into your personal power and awaken the divine feminine energy that was given to you at birth…whether or not you know it, whether or not you engage with it, whether or not you lost it over time and you’re searching for it…it’s here waiting for you to reclaim it and make it yours again.

Embodiment takes accountability, and if you’re here for it, we are too. 

And for some of you reading this none of that will resonate, so again then maybe this isn’t the space for you and we are totally cool with that, because it’s not for everyone, but you could ask anybody here who has gone through the Intro experience, taken classes or become a member here overtime and they’ll tell you they have been able to tell that cruel little voice inside that used to echo words of  “you’re not good enough” to kindly, shut the fuck up.  

When we say it’s not what you think it’s because to some extent, we have all thought oh “I could never do that” Or “I don’t have time for that” or “I’m too old for that” or “I’m too fat for that”… but here’s the truth, whatever you believe is your reality. You think you're too whatever...then you are. But thats where we come in and remind you... you can do it and you will. You will make time for it if it’s valuable to you and you’re never too old and you’re never too fat and you’re never too awkward, to try something new (even if it’s not pole dancing), especially if it’s something you feel that your soul has been craving.
