Ms. Namita Nayyar:
How did you feel before and after winning 2012-13 title of Miss Pole Dance Victoria?
Ms. Kristy Sellars:
Before I won I felt focused on just performing the routine as well as I physically could. Doing everything possible in the lead up training so that when I stepped off stage I’d know there was nothing more I could do to win.
There are always things I think I could do better but I was pretty happy with my performance and glad all of the costume parts worked smoothly. When they announced that I’d won it was realisation that the hard work had paid off. It was amazing.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Tell us about your pole routines that you incorporate with a range of dance styles including hip-hop, lyrical, contemporary and musical theater?
Ms. Kristy Sellars:
My background is dance, so I like to push the boundaries in the pole world and try to create new shows that are original and innovative. I don’t necessarily choose a style of dance that I want to do, I just decide on a song that moves me and choreograph to it, try to make the music visible:-)
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Who has been your greatest influencer and motivator in your success in the field of your career in competitive pole dancing ?
Ms. Kristy Sellars:
Anyone doing something innovative and out of the box. In any area of pole… Tricks, dance, entertainment etc. and also all areas of dance and movement!
I have a great support around me in the girls at my studio and also my partner, which always helps to get through the difficult days.
