Bobbi!

Poleluver started this discussion · 11/17/2009

I just got my first Bobbi DVD ( Pole Grooves). I really like this DVD. I enjoy the style ,it is set up for tricks. There is a lot I cannot do but see working into along with my classes. Every trick given is like a small combo and it is broken down into beginning, interm, advanced- along with different outfit changes each time. LOL. It is two part in that it also has a lap dance section which wasn't of interest to me but I definately need to get the Ultimatum DVD. I think this was done on a spinning pole which as I have been doing lessons I've become weaker on, but the idea is still the same. This is up there with the Be Spun DVDs to me. It was $40 plus more for shipping to the US -and plan to get the others. _ also I do not have Jamilla's yet but hopefully for Christmas!

I've been after this DVD but can't seem to find it here in the UK. Other thing that worried me was the fact they do everything on the 38mm pole so would that make a difference when you try doing it on the 50mm? Let us know how it goes as you use it 🙂

If you have a look on ISP lingerie website they sell pole dancing dvds, I believe they have the Bobbi's dvds on there or you can get em easy enough direct from Bobbi's website not sureon the web adresses just google em. I have got the second two Bobbi's dvds they are very good. My favourites are Jamilla's art of pole collection though. 🐱

Have asked for the Jamilla DVDs from Santa so fingers crossed he has got the hint 🙂 Problem is I've asked for a video camera as well so might not get both 😁

Is the the JAMILLA one a tutorial?? I just remember seeing show like stuff. Still wanted it though LOL

Jamilla does a box set with moves on it and she's just brought out a new DVD with routines on as well. Everybody I've spoken to who has seen the box set says it's brill - you can buy the DVDs separately too.
vickiezoo · 11/19/2009
The Jamilla dvds are the best you can get I reckon, they feature loads of moves from real beginner to advanced stuff like handspring and straight edge. All moves are broken down and explained really well, there are really good warm ups and body roll stuff as well andJamiilla's fab routines at the end. She is lovely xx 🐱

Hey everyone, I've been a big fan of Bobbi for years and I have all her DVDs. I wrote to her a while back about her poles and found she makes her own poles and she told me how to make them. I realized that because she is on a 38 mm pole that the grip is superior for spinning moves and for me, using the smaller diameter pole makes all the difference in nailing the moves. Check out my videos and you can see that I go to my 38 to do all the spin work. The pole was really easy to assemble - I bought two ball bearing flanges and brass tubing and that was it.

in regards to the different size poles the larger the diameter the easier it is to do inverted moves. I have a 42mm x-pole at home and at Bobbi's pole studio i use the 38mm poles and the difference is huge even with just 4mm! But the wider pole is great for learning moves as it is so much easier to grip
Angel1201 · 11/22/2009
Kaki, I have a different experience with my 38mm. If I am inverting into a knee hold like scorpio, I find that skinny little pole tucks right into my 'knee pit' and my hold is SOLID. If I am inverting say into an aysha and using a split grip, my fingers wrap so tight all the way around it I know I am not going to slide, even a little. If I am doing a thigh hold such as a layback, I do have to sqeeze pretty tight, but I do that anyway. There is less 'meat' to this pole so thigh holds will feel different but are still completely do-able.

Uhm, Bobbis DVD will be my next pole dvd series (I have just ordered my Jamilla set!) ...so I have been already checking on her site, amazon is not selling any of them 🙁 ... but I was looking for some confirmation... are these all the dvds (instructional I mean)? Pole Ultimatum DVD Pole Grooves DVD Merry Xmas my dears !! Veronika
Angel1201 · 12/8/2009
Veronika, there is a pole grooves and an advanced pole grooves. Ultimatum is the next one up and is more advanced and specialized in that it has a ton of pole split varieties, handsprings, and doubles work.

Tnanks for the info Angel !! Now I've got a problem I've just searched and the advanced polegrooves is not longer available on amazon not even on her site !!! The only place I could find it for sale myself was http://www.dancepoles.com.au/ onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I was going to buy it first before I posted this 😳 but the US exchange rate really sucks right now and I can't justify spending nearly $50 dollars on one DVD, even a good one thats apparently out of print(?) Veronika, if you get this DVD, please let me know how it is.

I will say I got Bobbi's ultimatum DVD for the doubles tricks and thank god I got it for that because that's seriously all I can do. Maybe 2 out of all the other moves. The FIRST move is handspring to ayesha for the love of god! And it just gets harder. Overall, fun to watch. The doubles moves were attainable. This is more for someone whose been doing pole 3-5 years though. Kind of on par with JK's pole power DVD. Worth it, but not my favorite. Kinda pornographic looking at parts with bad camera work similar to leigh anns, haha. And they definitely did not break stuff down enough, which is my main complaint about all other DVDs Ive tried except Jamillas.
