Hi i am pretty new here! Been dancing on and off for about 12 years but never really go where i want to go with it. So now being super focused with it all, stretching and even going to class ( which is scary as i have only ever danced at home) So i though i would come join here as my cyber haunts of old have all closed or turned into just pole fitness i like a bit of wiggle and glitter with my pole.

Thanks my lovlies! So has anyone good a good training routine going on? i take class once and week and once i have feeling in my hands again i will double up on classes. Just got aletheas dvd so aiming to do floorwork and splits prep 4/5 days a week with some extra gym work on the side, but all of this will be a gradual process. Plus having my pole at home means i'll be able to practise after class. Wish i knew more SW london polers!

Hello and welcome! 🥂Have you looked into the lessons here? I've got some great stretches and strengthening lessons for the hands, and wrists/forearms. Stretching the hands and forearms after each practice is so very important. There are a lot of things you can do with your pole to strengthing as well. Beautiful horse btw!

Sign up for veenas lessons they are a great resource & tons of help when learning pole! I take studio lessons, use Alethea & jamilla DVDs & use veenas lessons.

Thankas Veena and Pixie! i have had a quick skim over the lessons, they look really good. I love that you give the muscle groups used, it helps me focus on what i need to work in the gym!
