New PoleRider: Brookelyn in 'da House!

Brookelyn is a true good girl gone bad. This classically American Academy trained ballerina traded in her pointe shoes for stilletos two years ago.

She took classes at Crunch gyms for a year before she began teaching pole dancing. She now teaches several classes a week a Crunch NYC where you will always find this pole diva practicing her moves and rocking out new tricks.

Brookelyn contacted the clubhouse and asked what it would take to become a PoleRider. I asked the other dancers about her and they said "she is 100% PoleRider material"...She made it through hell week and her new PoleRider tattoo is looking sweet so we are pleased to announce that she is now part of the team!

"I don't do anything small; for me it's go big or go home. I love performing and going over-the-top so PoleRiders is right up my alley-- I can't wait to PoleRide on Halloween!"

Bat-PoleRiders Kat and Ariel at Comic Con



Here is a clip from the event. Holy Bat split!









We are pleased to present our newest PoleRider Kat on the Bat pole with Ariel at Big Apple Comic-Con I met Kat with Ariel at Ricky's to pick out costumes for the gig. After, they came over to the clubhouse to work out a few new moves and figure out the logistics of pole dancing with super hero capes. It was so freakingly fantastic I completely forgot to take pictures.

Bike Polo is by far the coolest, most exciting 2 team/goal sport out there. It combines speed, skills, style and just the right amount of blood. For more information about NYC Bike Polo visit their site.


This guy had to be our best tipper yet.
My T-shirt is by bicycle stencil artist Janet Bike Girl I really like her work. More NYC Bike Polo pictures here and more PoleRider/polo pictures coming soon. If you have any please send them my way!

From Chambers to Wall St.


Click Here for the article in this weeks Village Voice!
On Tuesday we did a lunch break PoleRide to Promote the Pole Superstar competition October 1 at the Highline Ballroom PoleSuperstar.com It was a perfect day to take a spin down Broadway.

See that red bus trying to catch us?

I am laughing because I know exactly what Marlo is going to do next when the double decker bus is beside us.



I don't think they will forget this bus ride any time soon...






We get this WTF expression on peoples faces often.

Felix!

While in Vegas for Interbike I had extreme pleasure and honor to hang with World Champion pole dancer Felix Cane and her husband Chris. You can see her perform live in Las Vegas with Cirque de Soleil Zumanati. Felix is psyched for PoleRiding when she comes to NYC! If you haven't seen Felix in action check out the video.





Here is Felix making out with her car! Thanks for a great time!
