My Pole Presentation Reflection!

Whew!!!  I am so glad that is over!  So...reflection...Here goes.  I feel like I did ok.  Thanks to everyone telling me I did well I feel better.  The adrenaline rush was so strong that if someone would have been making funny faces at me, I wouldn't have even noticed because I was so focused on trying to get my point across and not mess up.  There wasn't any point in imagining people in their underwear or anything like that, it was just in total support of Nike "Just Do It!".

I tried to gain common ground with my audience in my introduction by asking rhetorical questions and using funny images, while at the same time referring to Jessie's presentation also.  I tried to cover every slide without going through them too quickly. 

Throughout the body of my presentation I did focus more on the powerpoint slides to get my points across better.  I used my power points visual images for explaining the different types of mounts, movements and materials of poles.  There are some things that I left out that I wish I would have remembered were the Chinese Pole.  I also had a really good tasteful video I found on youtube of Jenyne Butterfly that I should have added in, but I forgot to.  If you'd like to take a look at it, it is www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwqucGc8GEw

I think one of my hardest parts was coming up with transitions to the different aspects of the subject.  I had a hard time going from my introduction to the history, the make up, the physiological and then entertainment with stereotypes but I think I pulled it off.  Towards the end, I think I did a good job at building my credibility by sharing my own experience. 

I think I totally skipped my conclusion now that I think about it.  O man!  I did.  Bleh.  I should have had an extra slide to summarize everything.

Overall, I think I did better than I had expected...Luckily!
