Meet R&R non-judge Rachele Ribera! Rachele is a pole dancer & lover of movement exploration. Learn more about Rachele at her website:
Noted by United Pole Artists for her "ethereally beautiful pirouettes, glides, twirls," and "unbeatable footwork", in the 2015 article, Fundamentals for Fluidity, Rachele has spent a large part of her time in pole refining and cultivating the art of dancing in heels.
She views the heel as an extension of the leg, that can elongate lines, and aid in creating intricate tracing patterns and illusions. Mentioned again by United Pole Artists in the 2015 article, The Anatomy of A Platform Heel, as one of their "favorite heeled dancers" with the "ability to make heel movement something ethereal", she showcases some of her technique here, in Moonshine.
During her upcoming visit for R&R, Rachele is teaching BOXWORK: How to walk, glide, dance, and trace in your high heels! Sunday, Jan 13 in Minneapolis and Mankato. Register here for BOXWORK!

Hi Frestylers!
Some of you may remember last year when we did our Equal Exchange fundraiser. Frestyl students sold organic, fair trade chocolate, coffee, tea, & other goodies to family, friends, or just themselves, and 40% of their sales went straight into their Frestyl accounts --to use for anything Frestyl sells!
We’re proudly kicking off our Equal Exchange fundraiser again! Just like last time, there is no minimum order and the money you raise for yourself can go toward anything Frestyl sells. Whether you sell $10 in coffee and use $4 off your next purchase of open pole or legwarmers, or sell $1000 of goodies and use $400 for your own xpole & some private lessons, we hope you enjoy giving yourself a boost with this fun catalog fund raiser! Catalogs and sample products (while they last) will be available in Frestyl lessons from Saturday, Sept 9 through Saturday, Sept 23! Orders are due in the studio by Saturday, September 23!
More details: Equal Exchange products are delicious and ethically produced. You can find these items in our local food co-coops, including the St. Peter Food Coop in St. Peter MN and Seward Coop in Minneapolis, MN. Because we signed up early (thanks again to Rachel Sandstrom!), an additional 10% of sales fund the event including a very special all-levels pole party on Saturday, October 21, to be hosted by the location with the highest sales! This is a pole party you won’t soon forget - Yes, you can totally invite the folks who order from you to our celebratory pole party! The party will be free for all to attend.
