Scope of Practice


Welcome back!

In tonight's episode, you will see INSANE moves from an amazing dancer. She pretty much stunned the whole crew with her GRAVITY-DEFYING pole work.

At one point the camera cut in the middle of her routine, so one of our production assistants told her she could rest and come off of the pole. She didn't come down; instead, she said she was fine where she was -

5 FEET OFF THE GROUND
Holding up her ENTIRE BODY
At a 90-degree angle from the pole
... with the BACKS OF HER KNEES!

We shot the scene at Centerfolds in North Beach, San Francisco.

You'll also see amazing CHEERLEADING. The girls were a mix of high school and college cheerleaders. Some of them were from Rebels Elite, a cheer and dance coaching gym, and the rest were from area schools. Here they are practicing at a gym on Treasure Island.

Our stunt coordinator selected the best team to be involved in the "CHEER-GONE-WRONG" stunt. Here are some pics of the girls practicing that difficult move.

It's also a VERY TRAUMATIC episode for Marisa, but I don't want to give too much away... so make sure to watch tonight  : )
