Acro Poleformers

The Acro Poleformers recently had one of their biggest performance since NDP 2009 and POCC, involving 10 pole artists and 1 aerial hoop artist, performed in a cool huge marquee on a huge ship (or was it pontoon-sorry we weren't sure) . Just some of the rehearsal photos, hope I can upload the actual event ones when I am back from Beijing.

10 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE ACRO POLATES-the true POLEFESSIONALS

1. Our Instructors are the FIRST to be IPDFA certified and the school is the ONLY Singapore school accredited by Pole Dance Community UK , alongside some of the world's top names in pole dance fitness. Our instructors are hardworking & dedicated.

2. We are the FIRSTcombined Pole Dance and Aerial (Silk & Hoop-yes like those circus acts see in Voyage De Lavie) Fitness In Singapore. Watch our practice and performances videos. There are tonnes in here

3. Our Pole Dance Team performed at the National Day Parade 2009

4. Our Aerial Instructors are the 1st local aerialists to perform at a local Government event Heritage Fest 2010 (CLICK TO WATCH VIDEO), organised by National Heritage Board. The next stop is an overseas performance.

5. Even though we are currently the only IPDFA certified and PDC approved, we offer the best rates for our Static & Spinny Pole and Aerial classes.

6. The studio is conveniently located at Waterloo Centre, near Bugis, and we are the only studio that designates a whole night (Wednesday) for student's practices from 6.30pm to 10.00pm. We could have easily slot in more classes to make more money, but no, this is our commitment to our dear students.

7. Our instructor, Karen Ng is SGPolestar Champion and is competing in Tokyo in Dec 2010.

8. Our instructors are handpicked by Pure Fitness to conduct pole classes in the newly set-up studio.

9. We use original 45mm and 50mm X-poles, leading poles used around the world

Perhaps we should add an 11th reason, Acro Polates DOES NOT FORBID students from posting the lesson or routine videos on youtube or facebook. They pay for their course, they can do anything they wish with their new found skills

Certified Pole Dance Instructors

Congratulations to them for being Singapore's 1st and only certified pole dance instructors.

So well done ladies. IPDFA (International Pole Dance Fitness Association is a reputed body that organizes world competitions and governs the aerial arts academy and has large network with the pole dance schools and community around the world.

Pole dancers at NDP and YOG

The people are at it again, stereotyping pole dancers even before they see the act.

THIS pretty much reminds me of what we went through LAST YEAR during NDP.

At least THIS OTHER PERSON'S comments are more thought thru and not jumping the gun.

I think it will take people a l.o.o.o.o.o.o.ng time before they accept pole dancing as as form of new sport. So I have given up trying too hard to change people's mind set at a public event, I'd far prefer to educate it through a different channel, for example like at the POCC Pink Party, such as THIS CLIP.

But as far as public events are concerned, I have moved on to introduce another form of aerial arts. This Heritage Fest offered an extremely enriching experience, and above all, artists were paid proper "professional" fees & given TV coverage (albeit short). Comparing this to the former gig, the artists were paid only a "token" fee in exchange of many full-day rehearsals, and all these for a 10-sec TV exposure for the actual event (I heard this year YOG's pole dancers not even on TV), and in the end still had to suffer much public criticisms!

Well hopefully the next time if we are offered a chance to appear again, pole dancing would already be awarded its sports status just like yoga, pilates and martial arts.

------------added later-------------

while googling for more info, I chanced upon THIS, the article and comments are like "wow! i didn't know"

What is Advance Open Pole Class:
Open pole class is an open practice session for Acro Polates students having completed at least level 5 and above.

During the open practice session, a “move of the day”* will be demonstrated by the instructor, and it is practice-til-pole-fection by the participants.

The “move of the day”* can be an advanced move, a routine, a combo, can be on static, on spinny or first on static then spinny, can be a move dependant or independent of the previous class/other classes. If the earlier, the instructor will make known to students,

CONCEPT OF OPEN POLE CLASS
Simply to provide therapy, stress relieve, interact with students of various classes/ levels, while shedding some calories. It does not and is not meant to replace any of the other structured classes Acro Polates has designed for you.

As such, you can purchase single sessions or in clusters of 4, 6 or 8 sessions in each term. Needless to say, you save more when you purchase more sessions per term. Single or additional sessions can be cought at $30 per session but priority are given students who pre-purchase the sessions in the event of a full turn out.

The studio/instructor does not guarantee
1. a minimum or maximum number of participant in each class, the more the merrier but as the class grows too big, Acro Polates will open more slots

2. that it is a brand new move each session. Take it as practice and challenge yourself in getting into it faster or with more grace and ease if that move is not new to you.

3. That everyone will achieve the move at the end of the session, but the instructor will tailor the level of difficulty if the need arises.

What is the difference between Open Pole Class and Pole Practice
1. Pole practice is for all levels and everyone practising different moves at their own pace. There is no instructor during pole practices to ensure that you are getting the moves right.

2. With everyone trying to achieve the same move during the session, the challenge is heightened.

Class Rates (quoted per term)
1. Single class –come for class and purchase $30
2. 4 per term (pre-purchased) $100
3. 6 per term (pre-purchased) $140
4. 8 per term (pre-purchased) $170
For 2) and 3) additional slots can be purchased at $30/session

The studio reserves the right to turn away those who did not pre-purchase in the event the classes have full turnout.

For more info on the classes, please refer to Acro Polates Website or contact instructors or Ryan/Bobee at 6334 2382

Art of Exotic Dance by Sophie K at Acro Polates

Acro Polates opened its doors one and half years ago, primarily as a pole & aerial fitness school. However, as the girls got increasingly comfortable with the pole, some express desire to add a touch of sexiness and sensuality to their pole work, we obliged and got one of Singapore's top exotic dance teacher, Sophie K to conduct a 6-week session.

The first season that started 2 weeks ago met with such good response ( it was a full house) that Sophie has kindly agreed to do another round starting 4 june 2010. Cost at $120 for 6 sessions, no administration fee. Sign up here.

These ladies totally enjoyed being transformed into sexy kitties for a day.

Ah boy-a little human

As you can see, my Ah Boy has gotten a little chubby and so we take him on weekly runs. As a sweetener, he gets bak kwa (roasted pork) for completing half the course, and his favourite chicken rice.at the end of the finishing line.

Like a child, he would find ways to wriggle himself out of the routine, like pretending to be distracted, or just stopped altogether looking tired and pitiful. It gets worse when the weather is not cooperative or conducive for a workout.

Today he tried to pull the same stunt, so mummy pulled out the packet of bak kwa and he immeditately sprang into action knowing that he had to complete the lap before he gets his treat....very cute la he

A husband's love

I've been wanting to blog this for a long time, but each time I have the time, I only have the energy to update my work stuff.

This post is about a most devoted husband I've known-my dad.

My mum is an opera addict, having performed and practiced cantonese opera from 16 to 60. She's now in her 60s and she still going strong in this artform.

My dad, not half as musically talented as my mum, enjoyed just chauferring her to and fro her practices. During his younger days he would wait around and see through her needs such as fetching her tea and buying her supper. Later as he got older, he would send her to the clan, then go home to nap or watch TV and be back in time to pick her up when practice is over.

Recently my dad just recovered from a mild stroke and we, the kids forbade him to drive. To curb his temptation so that he would take time off to recuperate properly (otherwise he would continue chauffering my mum and we caught him doing that several times), we had to do the cruel thing to sell off his car.

We encouraged our mum to carry on her pursuits to busy herself, but it also meant she would have to move out of the comfort zone to learn to take the public transport.

When my dad's health improved, he would saunter to the bus stop near our house to wait for his wife to come home from her bus ride.

When he got even better, he surprised my mum by taking the bus to the clan to meet her so that they can take the bus back together......and now apparently, is a regular ritual........and you should see the beam on my mum's face when she recounts this to us.

Sweet!

reminds to self - what is most important in this world is -true love, passion, honesty and GOD

Learn the Art of Tease

By popular demand, we are pleased to have one of Singapore's most sensuous and sort after exotic dance teacher agreeing to conduct a special 6-week "ART OF EXOTIC DANCE by Sophie K" at the Acro Polates.

Clearly from Sophie's pictures, the moves draw attention to the women's curves and lines, and the participant learns to appreciate her feminity and learn how to ooze sensuality with confidence.

The benefits, besides learning how to improve posture and facial expressions, you also improve flexibility and tone muscles like those of the thighs, carves & butt.
