-
Sounds like fun, I havent done a challenge in a while and I just re- arranged my living room to make pole time easier yay!
-
I’m going too! And taking my mom along for the ride lol!!!!
-
Same here! I’ve been working at this since the summer with not much luck! I can do the x and lift back up but can’t lift from the floor https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I managed to do the lift once (when Felix was watching, she must have left some of her magic pole dust on the pole after she demonstrated!) But haven’t been able to do it again! I do have to admit I’ve been a pole slacker lately becxause of school though lol!

Same thing at my job, there’s little cliques of people that all hang out outside of work and then at work they make plans and talk about the stuff they did. I never get invited out (all though I don’t know if id want to go anyway lol) and we all chit chat at work,but I don’t really have any friends around me because a lot of people I befriend and try to help scre me over anyway. We all opened our store together too so I don’t know why I’m excluded I always feel like no ones likes me and I get frustrated! I’m nice and considerate and I always go out of my way to help people! Wtf lol!! I kinda just got used to being the black sheep everywhere I go

I’m down! Girls at the studio I teach at in Worcester would be interested too I’m sure! I was trying to plan something for after the hollidays, with finals and christmas comming I don’t have time right now but say January/February ish?? There are a few New England studios that I wanted to contact to see if they wanted to come and we can have a big pole party, because for years I didn’t know there were other polers in the area!!!! Do you go to a studio? We can do it it will be fun!

Yay for splits! Congrats! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
My latest moves are a baby pheonix (I’m using Charley’s description!), extended down splits with one hand (!), and the daredevil. Though I admit those are about a month or 2 old by now I’ve been slacking because of school lately!
My advance students just learned the v hip hold, cupid, and elbow grip static v! -
Hey! I’m not sure where south shore is but I teach at D.~L fitness in worcester, ma! I’ve also heard there is a place on the cape too. Hope that helps!
-
I was there and it was an amazing show!!!! (I cleaned the poles hehe) I believe they were being judged on the same things that most comps are judged on, grace, strength, flexibility, uniqueness of moves or ways in and out of moves and overall theme. Not sure though 100% it was deffinitly a hard decision I would not have wanted to judge it!!!

OMG I’ve been itching to try this for like 2 months but I don’t even know where to start!!! I tried a few times but was trying to move my leg up or over for a second but i just ended up in the tic toc lol. Sooo turning the torso which way? toward my leg that I’m pulling to my head (I’m all ready waaayyy twisted that way)?? or the other way?? and what about the arm trick? I need details this move is so confusing!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

I teach at DL fitness in Worcester, MA now and we would be happy to have you https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I do privates and I teach all the advance classes I’ve been there about a month and have a well developed progressive pole syllabus for my advance classes and I tailor privates to the individual student…just a suggestion if you don’t want to go so far! PM me if you have any questions!

Congrats ladies! I can’t wait to see all your fabulous routines! Such pole fantasticness!
-
Such beautiful dancers! Jenyne is a trooper, I probably would have cried from pain! So glad no one got seriously hurt. All the performers I saw were fantastic and beautifull, Congrats girls!
-
I’m not trying to start any drama with you believe me! All I said was it seemed like you were implying those things being directed toward me, I don’t even know you, why would I want to start anything with you????????? It just seemed to me that all the negative comments were directed toward me, not only here, but on facebook and whatever, I’m done trying to defend myself all the time, I give up posting here, thanks for your support

I honestly haven’t even been watching the polls and I really just want it to be over with. I feel like you are suggesting that either a.) I’m cheeting, which I’m not because not only am I an honest person, I’m a computyer moron! And b.) Your saying whoever wins doesn’t deserve it if they win by popularity. So basically, if I were to win, I’m not tallented enough to share the stage with the others, because my friends voted for me even though I’m apparently a "terrible dancer"? I don’t know if I’m just taking it wrong but it seems all the crap comments are toward me! Why don’t I deserve it? It seems this whole thread was started to bash me. I want to say thank you to those who support me and stuck up for me I really appreciate it!
It just seems like everyone else trying to achieve they’re dreams gets support, but people just want to bring me down. Guess what, its not working, its only making me stronger, and I will prove that I deserve to ahcieve my dream!

Hi everyone, I don’t want to cause any problems here, but it’s making me really depressed that everywhere I look people are picking on me and only me. It’s like the story of my life. About my video length, I got a new camera, and when I upload it to Windows Movie Maker, it wont play or work, so I couldn’t edit it. Only judge me on the first 3 min then, thats what I figured USPDF would do, because I was told they don’t watch past 3 minutes! Plus I’ve seen MANY other videos that were accepted into competitions that were way over time limits. Plus I wasn’t planning on entering, but I was convinced by my family last minute to enter, just for the hell of it. There is nothing in the rules saying you cannot enter both, plus I’m apparently not verry popular because everyone seems to be against me. I’m sorry I entered and I’m from Connecticut, but in the EMW competition, on the West Coast there were contestants who lived on the East coast too, which made me think it was ok.
I’m sorry you all don’t think I’m good enough to be a contestant, and that I can’t keep up with the others, that really hurts, because I work my ASS off learning pole, I’ve never had a teacher, I had to learn trial and error alone. I practice almost every day, plus I’m tall and not super skinny I’m actually over weight, which makes me have to work really hard. I don’t know what video USPDF would have picked if there was no voting! And I didn’t make the rules! All I know is I work very hard and don’t see why people have to say I don’t deserve it. Soooooo many times I have lost at things, and I think I deserve a chance to compete, and give it my all just as much as anyone else does, and think it’s unfair that everyone is saying I don’t deserve to be in. :*( I thought we were all supposed to cheer each other on and support each other, not say hurtfull things. I feel like crap now.
-
Yup, no restrictions as far as I know! I just figured I would go for it, couldn’t hurt, and I never expected to make it to the semi finals! Its a dream right now! Pinch me!

I just wanted to say thank you for all your nice words and support! I really really appreciate it, and have some special stuff I’ve been working on for a competition. I know there’s been some talk about video submission length, and while I refuse to belittle myself by critisizing the other entries because I thought they were all great, I do feel like I have to defend myself now. I got a new camera a few weeks ago with HD and all that jazz, so my videos no longer work on windows movie maker to edit https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I also was not planning on entering until last minute and therefore used a not up to date freestyle video, but my family convinced me to enter the last day so I just had to pick out of what I had, and I didn’t want to repeat the use of a previous video I had all ready used to enter a competition, I wanted to show diversity. So, if were really going to talk about time, almost every other video submitted for any competition, almost always goes over time!
Thanks again ladies, and good luck to everyone who entered!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU LADIES! I usually loose popularity contests because no one really knows me, but I feel honored just to make it into the voting, when I got the email I was shocked because I deffinitly didn’t submit my best work, just expected annother rejection! Nerves are going to kill me the rest of the week!!! GIANT XOXOXOXOs to you all!
-
This is a work in progress for me too! I was lucky enough to take workshops with Felix this past weekend, and she broke it down for me and had me start by facing the pole. I did it once! But my body hurts so bad after that day I haven’t tried again…..I’ve been able to lower into the iron x and hold it and lift back up for about 3 weeks now (slow progress but some is better than none!) Ill make a video next time I practice!
