We had a pool day… well I did… those crazy girls took a shuttle from the airport, which they eventually abandoned for a taxi when they realized it might take them ALL DAY to reach our hotel! ha ha.  That’s okay… they are all a wee bit pale, so they were mostly into being slathered in 50 spf while sitting in the shade anyway! We all agreed it was so nice to be somewhere warm and sunny, sipping cocktails by the pool before our big night out.

We had dinner then went to check out Felix Cane in Zumanity… which was a total bummer… cause she wasn’t in it!   Sad we were.  The show was okay.  I think we gave it a 5 on a scale of 1-10.  Mostly because we really wanted to see a Cirque show, which it is… and isn’t.  It’s kind of  Cirque combined with Cabaret. There was a lot of audience participation (none of us… Thank God!) and most of the show seemed to be about making people feel uncomfortable or embarrassed through sexual content.  We just really wanted to see amazing dancing, acrobatics, and costumes. So, I’d say we were glad we went, we all had fun, but I don’t think any of us would see it again.  There were a couple of really great dancers, but because it was supposed to be all sensual and stuff they didn’t have much on in the way of costumes! ha ha.

We  rode the New York New York roller coaster before the show, which was a BLAST!  Kyla was  a bit nervous, so I think I had the most fun, because I got to sit by her.  I was laughing uncontrollably like a lunatic.  Roller Coasters are so much fun!

Then we were back in the room, for an early night so we would be fresh for our Pole Fitness Workshops the next day. It was a little hard to fall asleep with the wedding party reception going on outside our room, but it is VEGAS, Baby.  You can’t really complain when people are partying at 11pm.

The next day we had our classes with Jamilla De Ville at Fawnia’s new Pole Fitness Studio.  Jamilla is such a sweetheart, it’s always fun for me to see her and learn from her.  I really love her! We were pretty lazy… well, I guess I should speak for myself.  It was 80 degrees and I REALLY wanted to be sitting by the pool like I did the day before!  ( I am SO OVER THE SNOW in Tahoe!)   I did learn some great tips for teaching my classes.  In my opinion, Jamilla is the best instructor at really breaking down a move so you can understand it.  And that is really helpful to me as an instructor.  Because sometimes, when the moves come pretty easy for you it’s not as easy to understand why someone else can’t do them.  I had lots of questions for Jamilla, and she gave me all the answers I needed so I was happy.  I didn’t come away with a brand new trick I didn’t already know, but I did come away with some valuable information.  And I wasn’t sore at all the next day!  That’s a first!

Kyla had the camera we used, and she just moved, so once she’s settled and sends me the photos I will post them!

XOXO,
