Hi from Poole, Dorset, UK

Im 28 and have had my own pole for 5 months. Unfortunately Im diabetic and was poorly the month I got the pole and have been since so it hasnt had as much use as Id like....l I love my X-pole! brilliant design and very sturdy. I had about 5 lessons from September 08 to December 08 but stopped as it was Christmas and wanted to save some pennies! I can do a lot of spins and inverts but have trouble combining them together in a routine.... probably better to do this in class and practice at home at the moment. I need to work on my upper body strength but get worn out easily... possibly due to my health but not sure. I really love how pole dancing combines a gymnastics element as well as dancing but also strength. I wish it wasnt looked down on so much and related to seedy clubs. Its a fantastic workout! Anyway, just a hello from me! xx
