Hello
Hello all!
I finally signed up and decided to introduce myself (I am super shy). I suppose I can start by saying I am 22 years old and living in central New York. I just started messing around on my pole this week. I have no history dancing and have slacked off on my workouts big time (I’m a curvy gal). Sadly there are no classes anywhere near me so I am learning what I can on my own from videos and such. I am a sad sight right now, but I am hoping to gain some muscle and strength to push forward!

Hi Aphria!
Welcome https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I’m super shy too, but you will find that everyone on here is very supportive and friendly. I haven’t been brave enough for a Friday chat yet, but i’m sure the girls will make you feel at home.
I haven’t been poling that long, but it has already restored my confidence in myself and my body. It may take time, but with a little work you will feel better about yourself https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Welcome Aphria!
I too am a "curvy" girl and I love every one of them! It is amazing how poledancing can restore your inner goddess (ok that was a little nerdy https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif ). This is a wonderful site full of wonderful dancers and information. No need to be shy around here…I mean we do dance in our underware!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I will most definitely be buying some lessons here after I pay off the unexpected vet bill that popped up….oh fuzzy children.

You’re from central NY??? I live in the Southern Tier of NY; so I know what you mean about there not being any pole-related anything! SaschaPoles is from the central NY area, too, however she’s like an hour or so away from me. I haven’t met anyone in person who poles, but it’s nice to see someone else remotely close to here that does! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_jokercolor.gif

Thanks guys. Bad news for me and my poling https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I threw my back out AGAIN moving the fouton…Lord knows how long it will be before I can stand up and bend over without pain.
Jacq, thats awesome. I live in between Syracuse and Utica https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif Good ole New York.
pole-twista, I have to say that really perked me up! I can barely seem to get my feet of the floor either https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif Once my back is ok I will definitely start with the strength training and what have you.
I am very impressed with Veena’s lessons! Very easy to follow and understand, I just wish I could do some of them lol.
I will see if I can make it to the chat this Friday <3
