Joslin Phillips

 
This week I am featuring Joslin Phillips
 
 
 
This adventurous 22 year old found her way to her first pole class via a Groupon. Like most ladies on this blog she hated the ''normal'' gym setting. When she found a Groupon for her local pole studio, her and a friend decided it would be fun to try out. That was the start of her pole journey.
 
Joslin now trains at the Former Esteem Fitness in Virginia Beach, VA, USA and has been poling since August 2013

She has already participated in a Showcase with her studio Esteem.

" I dabbled in gymnastics as a child. I have always been very flexible, which helps me make some common moves even more beautiful. I love yoga and believe it ties in perfectly with pole fitness!
I not only do pole, but have recently started to gain a lot of interest and skills in circus arts (aerial silks, lyra, static trapeze, etc.)"

Role models and motivation:
"Samantha Star and Oona are my top favorites, but I love to see all the women online and locally who love to pole as well. I am inspired every day by everyone in the pole community."
 
Joslin's favorite move is the Rainbow Marchenko, which she just recently was able to add to her pole move repertoire! She also loves to perform handsprings, admitting she is obsessed with them since she first saw one performed. She has mastered all 3 grips for the handspring and is working hard to achieve a strong Iron-X.



Pole Goal for 2014:
She has plenty she would like to achieve this year but top of her list for now is the Phoenix and the Fonji
