Oh my, where on earth do I start?? The 2009 body building season is nearly over and things have finally started to quieten down for me. It has most definitely been the biggest year to date for Style on Stage, bringing me to the absolute limit of my workload. There have been many sleepless nights over the past few months as deadlines for suits drew nearer and nearer. But after attending as many of the local and national shows that I was able and seeing such a high percentage of Style on Stage clients competing makes it all worth it.
My sincerest thanks go out to you all for using Style on Stage. As I have said many times in the past, this website is for you and Style on Stage was established to make life easier for the dieting competitor to find all your 'onstage' requirements in one place. The business is growing every year as demand for additional services surfaces. Many things, like a tanning service, has required time and resources to bring it to fruition, but we are proud to announce that from 2010 Style on Stage will be offering a full tanning service for most local and some interstate competitions. We will be able to apply a variety of tanning product including Contest Colour, Jan Tana, Body Shimmer and Dream Tan and these will be available as a one off service or part of a total onstage package. Please keep an eye out for more information as the 2010 shows draw closer.
Another commonly requested item this year has been fancier men's posing trunks. So for those guys out there that are wanting something unique we are now offering a range of crystalised trunks. Some designs will be subtle while others will be a little more "out there" and definitely not for anyone wanting to blend in! With the range only being new the current design numbers are limited but will grow as demand requires.
While things are quiet over the Christmas - New Year period Style on Stage will be offering some great specials. Keep an eye on the 'shopping' page for these. This will initially include great bargains on all our posing shoe range as well as some items of our clothing range in January.
For those of you thinking of the Festive Season, Style on Stage do offer gift vouchers for any product/service or amount, are valid for 6 months from date of purchase and can be arranged by contacting me. Why not put in your request for one when next asked "What do you want for Christmas?"
Unfortunately we will no longer be stocking Gaspari Novedex for those of you that were purchasing it from me. Australian Customs are incredibly strict with their importation laws and we believe there is an ingredient in Novedex they are now not allowing into our country. It is just not worth the risk of having the products confiscated. On another note though, we are now restocking a selection of Next Generation Supplements. This is a wholly Australian owned and made company and were my sponsor during my last few years of competing. The company has grown incredibly over the years and have developed some awesome products and we will be stocking these well below their recommended retail prices.
The INBA Olympia DVDs have been added to the Style on Stage DVD Store. This has been a mammoth editing job for Ian Adams and it is now available for you to purchase. There are three DVDs and are sold individually. The first 2 dvds are Show 1 and Show 2 of the event (as per the program and running order of Sunday 18th Competition) and the 3rd dvd covers all the other events and elements of the Olympia weekend. If you have a question about which dvd you should purchase then please do not hesitate to email me.

Just a very quick update to let you know that Taraxatone is back in stock. It has been a very frustrating 2 months but the package has finally arrived in the country and cleared through customs. So for all those competitors that will be wanting or needing either Taraxatone or Showtime diuretics for your upcoming show get in fast. I will be ordering another shipment in the next week or so (while the Australian Dollar is looking so healthy) but I cannot guarantee supply.
Bikini orders for the INBA All Female Classic have closed as we are now only 5 weeks out from this show. If you are desperate for a new suit please make contact with me as I may have something suitable that has already been made up. Orders for August will be closing in a few weeks time.
I will be in Canberra in 2 weeks (20th-22nd June) and will be conducting a posing workshop as well as bikini fittings. If you are interested in attending the workshop or would like to book in for a suit fitting please contact Nancy Waites, my Canberra representative, for more information or times that are available.
I will also be in Melbourne in July for the INBA All Girls Classic. I will be available for fittings and one on one posing and choreography sessions. I will be flying into Melbourne on Friday 10th July and have left my departure date open for now, but will be available until at least Tuesday 14th July. Please contact me asap to register your interest in a one on one posing/choreography session or to arrange a time for a posing suit fitting.
A huge congratulations to all the competitors at the recent NABBA/WFF, ANB and WNBF shows. It has been a very tiring few weeks with 4 shows over 3 weekends but a very successful time for Style on Stage. Photos will be online shortly from these shows but if you have any shots of yourself wearing a Style on Stage suit please email them through so they can be added to the gallery page.
Wishing you all a very relaxing long weekend

It is very hard to believe that the early body building season is nearly over. Tomorrow Allison and I are heading down to the Gold Coast for the NABBA Southern Hemisphere show. With an impressive 115+ competitors and a quality unseen for many years, I am really looking forward to it. Hopefully I won't be spending the majority of the day backstage and will get a chance to see some of the action from the audience. Good luck to all the competitors and if you are looking at attending the show then make sure to come up to the Style on Stage trade stand and say hello!
Last week Style on Stage were at the INBA Brisbane show. Around 90 competitors and over 35 Style on Stage bikinis on show, I felt very proud of my efforts. Kind of makes all those sleepless nights worth it. I have also updated the bikini pages with heaps of new designs. Many of these suits will be worn at tomorrows show as well as the upcoming ANB Asia Pacific on the 30th May.
The latest addition to our tanning range is the inclusion of JAN TANA. We are stocking her current best seller "Hi Definition Competition Colour" as well as her brand new product 'Ultra 1" - a one coat show day tan. Each of these products are available as part of a kit or sold seperately along with her scrub, moisturising lotion and glaze. Jan Tana also produce a matching makeup for the perfect facial colour. You can check out our entire tanning range HERE or email for more information.
I will be in Canberra in June (20th - 22nd) for fittings, one on one posing and choreography sessions and a posing workshop. If anyone is interested in attending or making a booking please don't hesitate to email me at jo@styleonstage.com.au and I will pass your interest onto my Canberra Host, Nancy Waites.
I will also be in Melboure for the INBA All Female Classic in July and will be available for sessions and fittings both before and after the show date (11th July). Again, please contact me to register your interest.
If you unable to attend either of these weekends and are interested in organising a day or weekend of posing sessions or workshop in your area you can contact me at the above email address to discuss options.
Bikini orders for the July and August shows will close approx 6 weeks prior to the show date, while orders for the September/October shows may need to be ordered up to 8 weeks prior to the event. Last year I received over 150 bikini orders for those shows alone and it was also the first year I have ever had to turn girls away. Each suit is hand decorated by myself, ensuring quality and originality. The downside is that I can only take on so many orders for each season. If you are wanting a custom made Style on Stage suit for your end of year show then please make contact with me asap to ensure your order placement.
Once again, many many thanks to all my valued clients and customers for making Style on Stage the most successful competition preparation service available in Australia.
