Jonesy I would mostly try them in order since Veena has strategically built the lessons basic to more complicated (pole sit then wrist sit, or crusifix then pole climb or half spin to fireman). There are a couple that I need to watch two or three or even four times, and that I’ll go back to later down the road. Some you can probably pick up on right away. I broke them down into stretching and strength training the first day, her floorwork and climbs etc. the second day, and then the spins the thrid day…. but doing so many spins at one time made me pretty sick so you might want to mix things up a little more! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif I think as long as you follow the basic structure, your individuality will determine how you bounce around! Have fun and let us know how things go!

Even though I have a laptop, I find myself watching Veena’s lessons in my living room, and then running down to the basement to try the move a few times. She breaks them down nicely, and they’re mostly so short that if you watch them 2 or 3 times, its not a problem to leave the room and go give it a try yourself. I don’t think it would be necessary to have computer next to pole – at least in the beginning.

I just got my first pole up yesterday, but I want you to know that I think you’re GREAT! In fact you’re one of my pole idols!
Once when I went for a photography session, the photographer asked if I was a dancer. I told her that no, I’d never danced before, and she told me a moved like a dancer. Naturally! I think you’ve got a lot more of that natural grace than you give yourself credit.
Keep on rocking!

Plywood might help! I think standard stipple tends to be looser than artex so it might knock off easier even with plywood…. but I really love patterned artex so maybe me wrecking the ceiling will be a good way to get the stipple replaced with something much prettier! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Oh my https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif Just reading this thread makes me nauseous! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I had a cup of Fage Greek Yogurt with honey and an ounce of walnuts, 2 slices of turkey bacon, and some nasty ass egg beaters. For lunch, I had a lean brisket sammich on wheat and an apple bran muffin from starbucks with a nutritional value of shit, I’m sure. But it was really good.
For dinner, I’m going to eat an "asian salad" premade, cause we’re in the process of moving- topped with shrimp and onions. I’m also going to finish off some portobello mushroom fajitas that I made a few days ago- and maaaybe if I’m still hungry later on I’ll eat a black bean veggie burger.
MMM.
LMAO! Omgosh – Amcut you always have some awesome posts but this one really cracks me up! Nasty ass egg beaters – I love it! Teehee!
PS – What an awesome thread this is!! Brilliant!

I agree – make sure to get enough K. Potatoes and OJ work if you don’t like bananas.
AND… milk! Get more calcium. I could explain it on a cellular level (sodium/potassium pumps and the role calcium plays) but, *yawwwnn* who needs that kind of excitement in their life? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_study.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif -
I hate to create more work for you butt (hehe https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif sorry that was lame https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif ) I’d love if you could add me as well. Anybody that can do anything with their booty is my hero.
I’m JaydenSteel. Thanks so much!

I agree with everyone else. And…. maybe he feels threatened by your confidence and skills? Maybe he doesn’t understand your reason for doing it and he’s worried he might somehow lose you if you were to go public with it? I think jealousy and a lack of self-confidence play a big role in a lack of support a lot of the time (not just in poling!) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif I think if you were to start by making him feel extra secure in your relationship and let him know more often that he is a catch, you could slowly start to include him by asking for input and advice. Maybe you could get him to spot you for a new move and then let him know how much you appreciate him being there for you. Poling does NOT = skanky. Just because you love to dance doesn’t mean you’re going to start sleeping around.

Your right! I guess I just don’t feel like I’m really acccomplishing much and achieving my potential strength unless I feel the pain from a high weight/low rep or low weight/high rep go to total failure technique. Maybe I’m addicted to DOMS https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif

I agree – keep practicing. When I first started massaging, I found it soo hard to get my stupid, DUMBass left hand/arm to cooperate. Eventually it caught on because it had to. Its really more about training your brain than anything – start trying to do more day to day things (like brushing your hair or your teeth) with your left hand, and good luck! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif

Chilli – also a great idea. Very filling! Haven’t had chilli in a while….
