Louth-born pole-dancing teacher Arlene Caffrey (35) on conquering her fear of failure and taking part in her first competition in four years.
This weekend I’ll be taking part in my first pole competition in four years. And as an OG poler who has taken part in more competitions than she can count, I wanted to share some words of wisdom…
So I started out with pole-dancing competitions, in my humble hometown of Drogheda and I took part in a load of competitions between ’07 – ’16. I won a LOT of gold medals and lovely titles that I’m still proud of. I find the challenge of working within boundaries fun, as well as to be assessed by my peers so that I can gain new insights for bettering my skill.
Back in my day, a Butterfly was enough to win me the title of Miss Pole Dance Ireland in ’07. However, I’ve learned over the years that comparison to others, or even to myself, does nowt but drain my energy.Another shadow aspect that prevented me from competing as intensely for many years was that a part of me was afraid of failure or not placing high on the scoreboard.
