Would it be OK to do both programs at once? I want to learn basics and do some conditioning but also gain flexibility. I don't want to do too much and injure myself though.

I have been doing both programs at the same time...they line up fairly well in terms of rest days, but when I have been too sore or just don't have enough time in the day I take a day off from one or the other, and I always look at both of them before I start and note which exercises are in both so I don't double up and overload those muscles. I was already poling in a studio once a week for a few months before I started the programs though, so I wasn't exactly starting at the bottom in terms of my pole strength... Give it a try and if you feel too sore or too tired drop it down to one of the programs. I hope this helps!

If you are brand new to pole just do the 30 day take off because I do include flexibility in there too. The Take off is a very well rounded program. If you've been poling a while or have been doing some other form of exercise then feel free to try both, as Robinska mentioned. Let me know if you have any other questions.
