The cap just presses in place, it doesn't need to be screwed into anything. It just finishes the free standing part of the pole. :)...more

Pole is for everyone and studioveena is too! I'm not sure about who's transgender in the world of pole, I don't really follow the stars too much. There very well could be! Either way you will have...more

Thanks for all this great advice! I admit that I’m guilty of just repeating the invert obsessively, rather than doing specific conditioning exercises. I’ll definitely work on those tucks,...more

I'm always shocked at how "psychological" pole is. When I first started learning to invert I used to psyche myself up for it so much, and then I was up there for, like, 2 seconds before I had to come...more

Woohoo! Thank you! I'm going to give this one a shot. I always get busy and have trouble finishing challenges but I really want to participate! I'm going to try and do as much of this as possible on...more
