Pole Fitness Club: Competition Captain

Hey Hey! 

I'm Laura and I'd like to be your Competition Captain! (eeeeeee I hate writing things like this so please imagine a really great introduction).

Previous Experience which means I would be good at this (hopefully!!):

4 Years of Competitive Cheerleading! (I learnt so much during this time, partially down to the fact that I had ex-army coaches who took things veryyy seriously; but besides that I walked away with a good set of tricks and tips for making routines which literally won world level competitions (google 'Zodiac Allstars Shadow' if you want to have a look!))

LPV Intermediate 1st Place (I learnt soooo much in the process of making polishing my routine (e.g. the importance of musicality and choreographing through freestyle...); as well as loads from watching other peoples choreographing and practise styles and from working with Isabel!!) 

4+ Years of Pole (this means that I have quite wide understanding of different tricks and performance styles; so regardless of what you want to perform or how you want to do it; I might have some tips n ideas!!)

Gap Year working in Events Hospitality (this has given me a skills set for organising big events which should be helpful when if comes to actually organising competitions)

I'm ready to put in the hours! Can't wait to organise some great events and help polish and curate routines to make you guys look your very best!! We're going to make this year the best year for UCL Pole yet, `Kings Won't Know What Hit Them!!

Over the years I spent at UCL as a shy and reserved girl with minimal body confidence and zero dance experience, the society has given me not only a safe space to train and amazing friendships but, most importantly, it has helped me to reclaim space and challenge my fears of being in the spotlight by allowing me to take part in Varsity and always having a stage ready for me to perform! Looking at me now, after having hosted the Bloomsbury Spring showcase and overcome my fear of freestyles on the stage, you would have never guessed that I used to find it hard to even look at myself in the studio mirrors. 



Of course, I know that I am not the only one with similar experiences and I feel like my time has come to join committee to help to continue making the society a welcoming, inclusive, and empowering space for everyone. As a competition captain, I would make sure that you always feel supported and encouraged so that, regardless of your experience with pole, you'll always be ready to own the stage fearlessly and, trust me, I'll be your biggest fan and hype girl - but also your go-to person for any questions and your absolute nightmare when it comes to technical comp things.

 

So please vote for me! If you can't quite picture who I am, I am the girl with long hair and minimal clothing who always tells everyone how great they're doing and take the best pictures from the most flattering angles! 

I have lots of experience competing in university pole competitions- IUPDC 2022 (beginner) and Varsity Series (advanced). I know what these judges are looking for ;) 

I helped organise IUPDC nationals so you bet Varsity 2024 will be good :DD

I also designed the competition kit for VS and LPV 2023- look forward to next years kit ;P

guys lets win VS and LPV next year hehe

vote for me- pls
