Thank you @rozthediva ! #Repost @rozthediva with @get_repost ・・・ LAST 2018 POST : I'm done forcing myself to love how I look. I'm really proud of what my body can physically do, and that brings enough happiness. I'm too tired to love my whole self all the damn time. I'm ok with not liking Aesthetic Roz because Phyical Roz can beat the shit outta her. #RozTheDiva #DangerousCurves #RozMaysEnterprises #PlusSizePole #BlackGirlsPole #PoleLikeADamnDiva #PlusSizeAthlete #FuckYouPayMe #SuperfitHero https://www.instagram.com/p/BsF8J1ojKHO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pcokmc8uvj5j

Can't think of a better way to spend my Friday night than with @rozthediva and company! I am even more dead-fucking-set on taking a class in-person from Roz. This was absolutely amazing and I recommend it to all my pole/instructor friends. I feel absolutely reinvigorated and confident I can be not only the instructor I needed as a baby poler, but can continue to become the best instructor I can possibly be!!! I can't wait to bring what I learned to @rocpolefitnessstudio #poleinspiration #poleinstructor #unitedbypole #progressnotperfection https://www.instagram.com/p/CLgE9G8Bm0e/?igshid=1txil6i2q9ngq

You Need To Know This Pole Dancer’s Self-Confidence Secrets
In her own words, pole dancer and fitness trainer Roz “The Diva” Mays is where she is today by way of a miracle. “If you’d have told me during that first pole-dancing class…” (which, she adds, kicked her ass completely) “…[that] I would eventually be leading classes of my own all around the country, and would have ended up on TV four times doing this, I would have slapped the shit out of you,” she laughs.

Body-Positive Pole Dancer Posed as a Mermaid and It’s Everything
Photo: @rozthediva/Instagram
We’re accustomed to seeing Roz Mays (aka Roz the Diva) work it out on the pole. But as it turns out, Mama can also work a mermaid tail.
The certified personal trainer, plus-size pole dancer, and mastermind behind Dangerous Curves — a plus-size pole-dancing competition — shared a few photos on Sunday from her trip to Hawaii that will make you want to camp out on a rock somewhere near the ocean and be a siren full-time. We hear the benefits are seariously good.
In a series of images posted on Instagram, we see Mays on the beach in Waikiki, Hawaii, lying on her stomach with her arms extended, rocking a gorgeous magenta-hued mermaid tail, shells, and a lei. Mays says Hawaii-based photographer Stephanie Cannizzaro reached out to her while she was in Oahu to shoot her on the beach — and came with a mermaid tail handy, as one who has access to mermaid tails does.
And for my grand Hawaiian finale, I’m a gotdamn mermaid (more pics soon!). @coralscandidphotography SLAAAAAAYED with her camera at sunrise.
A post shared by Roz The Diva (@rozthediva) on Mar 16, 2017 at 10:24am PDT
“Stephanie had everything!” Mays shares with Yahoo Style. “Not only did she come with a tail, shell bra, and necklaces, but she knew exactly how to pose me for the best pictures. As if that weren’t enough work, she had her 8-month-old baby girl in tow. That’s some motherhood magic right there.” Indeed!
The photos show Mays looking like a bona fide sea queen in her getup — carefree, arresting, and magical. We see her splashing her tail in the waves, looking lovely and lavish on the rocks, and getting washed up onshore like a fabulous treasure from the deep.
Stephanie from @coralscandidphotography is a camera ninja with a traveling mermaid tail. WHO HAS A MERMAID TAIL ON CALL?! Genius people like Stephanie. #RozTheDiva #DangerousCurves #RozMaysEnterprises #PlusSizePole #BlackGirlsPole #BodyandPole #PlusSizeFitness #PoleLikeADamnDiva #PlusSizeHealth #PlusSizeAthlete #BodyPositiveAthletes #MyCurvesCan #IncrediPole #Healthyish
A post shared by Roz The Diva (@rozthediva) on Mar 18, 2017 at 3:27pm PDT
Cannizzaro tells Yahoo Style that she is all about the mermaid life. She crafted the shell bra herself and owns mermaid tails in both adult and children’s sizes. She says that, as a fellow plus-size pole dancer, she felt compelled to contact Mays for the shoot. “I have admired Roz for a long time,” she says. “It was a day’s notice, but we totally made it happen. I really wanted to meet her, but I also wanted to show that mermaids can come in all shapes, colors, and sizes! You don’t have to be a size zero to make your mermaid dreams come true!”
For Mays, the photos are a departure from her usual Instagram fare. “I live my life in sneakers and sweaty gym clothes, so it was a lot of fun trying a completely different look,” she says. And what a look it was, taking us from the pole to the Pacific Ocean!

Dope ass choreo in heels class with @keeley1123 at @dangerouscurvespole camp today! So fuckin excited and grateful for this experience with these amazing women this weekend. I can’t wait to bring some of this #choreo back to the studio for routines and to share with everyone! Also the one and only @rozthediva killing the choreo behind me (who also runs this shebang and is really the reason I’m here this weekend❤️) and @c.farmer to the left of me (she’s the 2016 DC champ and she’s fab).. if any of you have the chance to do this next year, DO IT. It’s so worth it. Also had an awesome freestyle class with @taushaostrander that I got so into I forgot to record! Anddd we got some bomb ass goodie bags with swag from @curvygirlspole @bodyworksball @artistaapparel and a profane coloring book from Roz 😂😂😂 And we’re doing everything at @incredipole ! Which is fab and beautiful and I so want to visit more often - the studio has space but feels intimate and “well dressed” 😍 I’m babbling now, I just love everything about this weekend ☺️ #dangerouscurves #dcpolecamp #dangerouscurvespolecamp #dc2018 #dangerouscurves2018 #incredipole #brooklyn #rozthediva #plussizepole #curvygirlspole #badkitty #hiwaistedempireshorts #pleasers #8inchheels #xtreme1020 #redhead #girlswithtattoos #girlswithpiercings #inkeddolls #pierceddolls #thick #curvy #bodyworksball #artistaactivewear #artistaapparel (at IncrediPole)
