xpert. I regret not buying it and buying only the xsport. I also regret not trying the finishes out at local studios. The $100 in gas I would have spent going to different studios semi-local would have made up for the almost $500 I will have to drop in the future for the pole that I want.

When you do pike to superman, assuming you’re inverting from the right, keep your lower hand (right) in the same grip, but bend your elbow to be perpendicular to the pole. The same way you might do jade. This is just to stabilize you while you reach your left arm around your outer leg (left). When your left hand grips around the left leg, it should be faxing thumb up. Now that you have both arms secure, flip the right hand thumb down into cup grip. Push with your right hand and flip yourself the same way you would from invert into crucifix and the slide down– except instead of sliding down, use the left hand to pull you up into superman. Once you understand the push-pull mechanic, you can eliminate using the right hand as a support system as the first part of the move for a smoother transition. Hope this helps.

I’ve only ever done titanic without the foot on the pole. There is a lot of lower back mobility involved. I feel like the foot on the pole makes it confusing, like I drop my hips too much. I find pushing your chest out the same way you do in an elbow stand helps

I was told by a studio owner that I needed to go back to beginner classesbecause I couldn’t do a sit. In a climate I was not used to, during rainy weather. I had been pole dancing for about 10 months, could do Janeiro, shoulder mount, and aysha. She was rude and I almost got my stuff and would have had I not attended with a friend. Oh, by the way, said friend fell out of an unspotted shoulder mount. The teacher knew she had never done it and didn’t spot her anyway. The worst studio experience I have had by far

Try incorporating a sv challenge into a lesson. Like, use a prop, do a short freestyle on the non Dom side, dance to something you’ve never heard of. My instructor refers to sv for most things. Try doubles or some sort of partners activity other than spotting. Good moods are contagious.

I have had the same issue recently on my desktop using chrome and firefox. Not so much on my phone.

Hummingbird and downsplits I saw a girl once doing downsplits and her foot slipped off the pole and her face went right into the pole. She had done the move a thousand times, and still messed up. So I am terrified of that one, and won't do it unless spotted.
Hummingbird is the same thing (humingbird is cupid, but your back is directly away from the pole instead of being to the side of the pole like in knee hold). I saw a girl fall out of it to her face. You can drop from hummingbird into downsplits, which is like, ultimate terrifying.
Althought I'm afraid of anything and everything, including jellyfish, elevators, and bridges that go over water. |: -
I read Casey’s post and thought of Bring It On. Pole edition.
-
topless is fine for me. But never nude. Even then, I’m always recording. What if I get really close to a move? I won’t be able to show anyone.

I feel huge in comparison to other girls…I was trying to do straight leg aerial shoulder mounts at my studio the other day….Stubbing your toe on the cieling is the worst thing ever.
I feel like the smaller girls can do more because there's less of them. Yeah, 90 lbs at 5'5" is probably proportionally about the same as 5'10" and 140 (which is what I am). But really. you expect me to believe gravity likes me the same?
I got over it really quick. But I'm also a natural dancer. Normally customers tell me, "I don't normally like thick girls, but I love the way you dance." It all comes down to expression 🙂

I regret not learning on spin…I feel like people who learn on spin advance quicker and have bigger muscles because of the g-force that comes with spin. Probably not even remotely true, it's just one of those things my brain finds logical 😛

I shouldn't have read this thread. I read your facebook post and thought it was very tasteful. I would like to share it on my wall, but my facebook consists of;
1) Other pole dancers. Obviously very supportive of pole
2) Gamers, who, while they're trolls and know I'm a stripper, are very understanding that I love the art of pole. Not the "money" in it.
3) Girls from high school who were former ballet/tap/jazz, so when they see one pole video, they understand the aerial DANCE aspect of it. I've never had anyone say anything rude on my facebook.That being said, I want to punch your friend Christa in the face. She should definitely go on the "Delete" list because to me it sounds like she (a) doesn't get it and (b) is somehow making the topic about her by talking down to you numerous times.
1) " But I would ask if you would feel comfortable doing it in front of your dad, brother, or Jesus?"
Poledanceforjesus. I kid you not it's a thing. An AMAZING thing. People get closer to God through dance all the time, it's your fault for trying to sexualize a plain, inanimate object. These people don't. Just saying.

2.) " As far as those other pictures are concerned, clothing has been beyond ridiculously scant for many years now inside and outside of "sports".
I'm sorry. Was she just trying to call you out for wearing shorts or something? And then she goes onto say, " could almost argue that women who dress seductively might have the problem as they obviously want attention to fill some sort of heart hole."
So…first she complains about someone unmentioned not dressing to fit HER standards, then says that person in question is lonely and has a self-image problem?
Gonna have to go to the ER later. My eyes are about to fall out of my head from all the rolling they're doing.
Sorry, I hate to sound like a grade A bitch. But this girl. Sounds like she doesn't WANT to get it. And just wrote a really wrong, long, and poorly written (use the damn enter key, there's this magical thing called paragraphs) just because she had an opinion, not because she wanted to understand what her friend was going through. I have no idea who this woman is, and I could be 100% wrong. That's just the impression that she made public to me through the internet.

I switched to Anthony’s. I will only buy pleasers boots

I’m done buying pleasers. Their quality has gone down significantly, while their prices keep hiking. And I had no idea they never dealt with consumers..

You gaaiizz. Y u gotta make me cry and such! But they're happy, grateful tears. I guess.
My body:
1.) Dat white gurl booty. I like that I don't have to have the brazillian butt lift video. I pretty much look like I have implants, it's just so far up there. It's nice!
2.) I like the lines my shoulders make. It's so Hollywood noire.
3.) I have really nice legs. Thank you tennis, and also pole.
4.) I have fangs. I guess it's the trend in Asia anyway, so thank you Asia for making me look cool.Pole:
1.) I like that I'm a very emotional dancer. I think other people appreciate it, too.
2.) I AM SOOOO much more flexible than I thought I was.
3.) Abs and arms. My arm strength isn't quite there yet, but I like that I have biceps! They're so pretty 😀 -
I don't think that toe pointing is all it's cracked up to be. I wouldn't know a "line" if it hit me in the face six times over. But….
I get really upset when girls enter competitions and they have "barbie feet". And then they win them. Like, I recently watched a competition where the second place winner won over a much more polished routine. She had the worst case of barbie feet I had ever seen. Not to mention her whole kit of moves was unpolished, she seemed like she was going to fall off the pole any second…if you're going to eat shit, atleast look graceful when you do it. Like one of the times I saw Jenyne fall, she was so into it and then she just kinda..oopsie'd. And she got back up there and brushed it off. But you would have been expecting that with poor form. Granted, Jenyne is an icon–but that just proves my point. When learning a move or just freestyling, I don't think it matters or needs to be heckled. But if it's a performance piece and you are there to be JUDGED, yeah, you better expect flack for it.

….If when you walk through your house you find atleast 3 bottles of grip aid lying around.

I typically do a few things, and if I'm really into a song a full freestyle. If no one is tipping the stage because I refuse to shake my ass, booty pop, or wiggle my feet back and forth to make my ass billow, I will sit on stage with my arms crossed or stretch to let people know I'm bored.
I'm not afraid to talk shit back to customers. I had a group of girls come in and start talking shit about girls on stage, so I whenever that happens I drop by with a group of applications. "Oh, so you can sit here and make fun of the girls, but you wouldn't even try to get hired here. It's so easy, go ahead. Go on stage. Manager already said it was okay. No? You don't want to? Didn't think so."
I make sure to slam my heels a few times to let people know I'm not only booty popping and sitting there and looking pretty. But sometimes that doesn't work. Occasionally, I'll have a smart ass yell something like, "You're going to hurt yourself" or "You need to calm down on that pole." To which I reply something along the lines of, "sorry, it's really hard to hear you with the d*** in your mouth." I actually love when people heckle me; gives me a reason to be a bitch to someone without giving a crap about money they're giving me. About 80% of the time another customer sees what's going on and buys pity dances anyway 🙂
