International Pole Dance Day is coming up on the 30th of September, so while we share the privilege of enjoying, teaching, and learning Pole dance in the studio, it's time to honour the folks who brought it to us in the first place and still push it forward to this day! We want to give something back to the SWers, skrippers and QTPOC community who have always been at its roots.
So this night will be filled with fun and dancing with the freebs, and it's donation based entry with the studio adding their slice to the pot to share between 2 Scotland based groups-
is a building block for a Scottish QTPOC pole dance collective giving amazing opportunities and focusing on lowering barriers of entry for the marginalised into the pole industry and performance scene in Scotland.
Scotland for Decrim is a grassroots campaign fighting for the full decriminalisation of s*x work in Scotland.
THE EVENT:
Sat 3rd October, 7.30- 10pm
Dare us to dance, with games, prizes and snacks!
First your instructors Nicole Tait Tara Jane will perform freestyle to a lucky dip of songs of your choosing (with some aerial involvement too as we're all here for it!) followed by an open stage for anyone else that wants to take their chance on a lucky dip or give us a wee dance to a song of their choosing (doesn't have to last the whole song!) Everyone will be asked to throw a song (or two..) into the tombola, so are you going to chuck in a wild card and see how we deal with it?! Or do you have a banger in your head you just want to see a performance to?! That's up to you.
There will also be some fun wee games and challenges with prizes during the night, and snacks and juice provided, but do also byob! You do NOT need to perform to attend, more folks the better as this will be a donation based attendance.
Please book your free space via the schedule for an idea of numbers - and bring any amount you can donate with you on the night, no limit or requirement. If you can't make it and still want to donate please message Jenny and we can sort this out, or you can bring a donation to the studio and it will be added to the tally!
