So, after asking for advice on 2nd rate poles, I decided to wait. I picked up extra shifts and saved up and ordered a Veena pole today!!!! Now, it will be a while before I can afford a studioveena membership to access the lessons. Any suggestions on DVDs? What about more expensive ones once I save up? Any sets that you guys recommend?

Welcome to SV & congrats on the new pole! Veenas lessons are great! When you get your pole, try Veenas free trial offer. Happy poling!
U were smart and saved up for a quality pole, I would suggest doing the same and saving up for Veenas lessons......by FAR the most bang for your buck!!!, :)
DVDs are expensive and limited. I suggest going for SV lessons and I can send you links to other resources to get you started.
You could start with Jamilla's Art of Pole DVD's! I find that they're fairly good for things like static and spinning poles, as well as conditioning, and explaining moves fairly well. She also has a few little routines part way through the DVD to learn to put your moves together. I'd say that this would only be a "learn my tricks" kind of thing, though, as most DVD's are. Some few are good for understanding other things, but Jamilla's are great for strength building and explanation. Veena's lessons are also good for learning of tricks, but come with the added bonus of being able to ask Veena if you don't understand something! And she's always updating. One thing you can also do is watch some of the beginner videos on Youtube (search something "beginner pole dance routine") so that you can get a handle on the kinds of movements you can potentially explore with pole. Tricks are only one part of the pole dance world- they're awesome, but when you're starting out, you only have a couple of tricks. But, you can still dance!
