Ep. 33 Flor
from Strip Journey · host Morana Vitezic
In this episode of Strip Journey, I talk with Flor, a 22-year-old dancer, teacher, and frame-up organiser from Buenos Aires, Argentina.Flor started pole dancing at 14, competed from 18 (and won every time), then flew to Moscow to train frame-up directly from Russian teachers. Since coming back, she has built Argentina's first dedicated frame-up community, packed her workshops with theory and technique, and organised the country's first multi-teacher frame-up event, all within two years of returning.We talk about what it's like to grow a niche style from scratch in South America, how culture shapes the way we experience our bodies in dance, the unspoken rules around what kind of sexy is acceptable - and who gets to break them, and Flor's meticulous approach to making a two-minute choreography over two to three weeks.A conversation full of honesty, philosophy, and a lot of love for dance.Flor's instagram: https://www.instagram.com/floresttada/Argentina Frame-Up community page: https://www.instagram.com/frameup.arg/00:00 – Introduction & welcome00:45 – Flor's background: pole, competing, and discovering frame-up04:00 – Training in Moscow: the experience and standout classes05:30 – Back in Buenos Aires: first workshop sells out07:00 – Organising Argentina's first multi-teacher frame-up event10:00 – The Prague convention & the global frame-up map13:00 – Will South America develop its own frame-up style?14:00 – How culture shapes how we experience our bodies in dance15:00 – Flor's choreography process17:00 – Teaching style: repetition, patience, and detail19:00 – Advice for people who want to start frame-up22:30 – Sexy vs. vulgar: who gets to push limits and why27:00 – Body diversity, Argentina's feminist wave & body culture compared29:30 – Flor's icons34:00 – Final message
