She began showing her skills on small stages and small acts on festivals, and her determination and relentless training slowly but surely gave her a more steady - and legal - income.<br/><br/>Despite that, the seasonal dependency on festivals and the ever changing climate of San Francisco's smalltime clubs forced her ever so often to look for alternative ways of income at times - and with her current and past skills, she had at times to make due with dancing a pole instead of gaining applause on a more traditional stage.
