Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Miss Pole Dance NSW 202: REGGIE
Q: What was the moment like performing at finals, and how did you handle nerves and music timing?
She planned a pre-roll pep talk with her head down to avoid nerves, but when the music started earlier than planned, she chose to restart to ensure the routine was performed as intended, prioritizing the moment and her own performance standards.
Miss Pole Dance NSW 202: REGGIE
Q: How did your journey in pole begin, and how did gymnastics influence it?
She started pole officially in 2018 after earlier exploration in Canada; her gymnastics background—from artistic to rhythmic gymnastics—gave her body awareness and performance instincts that translated into pole, though injuries and learning curves shaped her path.
Miss Pole Dance NSW 202: REGGIE
Q: For those people who don't know who you are, give us a little introduction. Who is Reggie?
Reggie is a pole dancer and teacher based in Sydney who grew up in Vancouver, Canada, and moved to Australia 15 years ago; she holds a citizenship by descent and has built a career in pole through performing, teaching, and competing.
Rain. On. Me. Ft Special Guest Rain!
Q: What role did international competitions play in shaping your style?
Rain emphasizes that competitions like EXO-GEN Japan and EXO-GEN Asia broadened their perspective on what old-school can mean globally, encouraging slower, more nuanced storytelling on stage.
Rain. On. Me. Ft Special Guest Rain!
Q: How do you handle self-criticism and stay focused on growth?
Rain explains leaning on a support network, taking external feedback, and intentionally stepping into different training environments to see movement through fresh eyes, which helped them move away from trying to please a criterion and toward authentic expression.
