twistedmoon: the bakeries here in Paris are great, but some arn't as good as others. Most are absolutely wonderful, but once in a while I buy a so-so baguette or pastry. As far as the open pole, that's regular age rule (18 and up), but I was just talking about the 21 and over for the events at the bars. I've never been to an open pole event, but I heard they're great.
Andrea: I would also like to know if there's any way to just try out the poles/studio at Blush. It's closer to Milwaukee, but it is more expensive than Miss Pole. Do people have to start at the first pole level if they've already completed turns and a bunch of inversions at a different studio? Thank you!
Flexx10: I agree, the thing I enjoy about Miss Pole (at the old studio at least, since I haven't been to the new one) was that there were 6 poles, and usually an instructor and an instructor in training. The instructors also seem to be extremely careful with the pace of the students, because of the safety factor. Also, when I have specific questions about why a move doesn't seem to really lock in, the instructor is usually great at figuring out what I'm doing wrong, and spotting me when I'm trying something new.
