If you take pictures of your bruises so you can document your progress and show them off later.
If your camera is filled with pole pictures but you forget to bring it for other events like birthdays and weddings…
If your boyfriend doesnt even glance away from his video game as you practice a sexy chair dance.
You are constantly searching for pole anything online.
Everyone you know has heard you say, "I can’t go then because I have class that night" or "I can meet you after pole class."

I do have elastic wrist supports / compression gloves that I wear at night, but I just can’t find anything more heavy duty. I’d like something that has plastic or metal "plates" in them so that they are stiff.

thanks mizvix for the info, but I’m looking for something firmer than that. I want the type of grips that gymnasts, or skate boarders would use, but without a thumb support! Tigerpaws are the closet thing I have found, they are for gymnastics, but they have a thumb "hole" and I just want it to cover my wrist only. My boyfriend told me I should just invent some lol! I’m considering it now though, because I still haven’t found anything!

Hey Jenn,
I work for studio, so I am covered by their insurance. We do make them sign waivers before hand. I’m not sure what type of private insurance you would need? Maybe call the state board of health/fitness and ask if they can direct you?

That was kick ass! I want to ninja pole!
-
Can you post a vid of you trying? It could be multiple things =) Maybe try practicing a crucifix first and get your thighs toughened up.
-
Bellz! I think we talked for a while at the bar after the show? I definitely remember seeing you perform, and you did great!

I take classes, teach class, and I pole on my own =)
In my classes we do a quick warm up 3-4 songs, stretches, hip circles, dance moves, etc. Then we learn and do a full routine (we change out every 3 weeks) for about 35 min. Then we do 3-4 songs of ab work. Followed by a mere 15 min on the pole, (sometimes we just do tricks, some instructors do a short routine)! Then we do a quick stretch. And I typically stay after class for 30 min to do more tricks, especially climbs and inverts. We only have fitness classes, so a lot of the pole work is on my own.
In my typical on my own workout, I again start with a quick warm up and stretch. I usually start with my harder moves, or if I have something I really want to try. I throw in some dance routines, and do many tricks! It really depends on my mood and if I have a song I want to jam too.

I went Friday night!
Pole-princess, if you have a copy of your performance please post it! =)
Bellz, when did you go?

Had a great time at the show! The girls did a great job! Wish I had videotaped more, but it was standing room only and I had to balance a drink too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
-
I just laughed so hard! That was great! Don’t let those haters get you down!
-
Whoo! I just got booked another party for mid oct! And I get to choreograph my own pole routine this time! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif SO flipping excited!

I use mighty grip every time I pole. I put a good amount on my hands, only the palms, but not my fingers. That way I can grip without having any issues with spins, I also realized when I put it on my fingers I’m more prone to sliding and twisting my fingers. I also have put it on my calves for more grip when trying one leg inverts. I don’t need it between the knees or elbows, for some reason I grip just fine. I used to wipe my pole between moves, but sometimes I think it works better when I leave some trace grip on the pole. I would very much like to try some other grip aids. Anyone think iTac2 is strong enough? I’d like to try 3 or 4 possibly, I feel like my hands are always super sweaty, even if I’m not hot. I think your best bet is to experiment a bit and see what works for you. And if anyone has answers for me about iTac I appreciate it.

OMFG I’m so excited for this weekend!
-
Thanks! I really love classes, and I’m excited to learn more! Unfortunately I will be out of town for the halloween party https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif and I really wanted to go! You definitely should head over there though! All the girls are sweet and friendly and I’m sure you will have a blast! There is also the pole dance extravaganza this weekend from the michelle minx academy, it is downtown at the atomic cowboy. If you’d want to go, let me know. Or if you ever want to have a pole jam, 40 min isn’t too far.
-
OMG congrats! Please make sure to take lots of pics and videos for us! It’s so awesome you are preaching the pole up there! =) Everyone in that town needs to loosen up and take a swing around! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_compress.gif

I had just learnt my routine on Tuesday, so I only had a few days to practice and memorize! Wheeew! I don’t have a dance background (just a year of stumbling around in ballet, jazz and tap when I was 12. Awkward! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif )
I feel pretty self taught, even though I take classes. We mostly do basic spins. I think I have learnt everything else off youtube! I’m usually the only one doing reverse grabs, or inverting, but I guess that’s why they hired me.
Where did you teach your party? Do you work for yourself?

While I really like yoga, I LOVE aerial yoga! Basically you sit in a "swing" and you can do yoga poses, and combine some cirque du soliel-esque moves. I just really love being able to invert! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif Anyways, I just posted a quick vid of my aerial yoga workouts.

Hey Chicago girls, anyone interested in having a pole jam in early November? Either in St Louis, or the St Louis girls can come to Chi town!

So, here are my 2 cents about this subject..
I think your husband is probably more threatened by your ex Djing there and you dancing (and him or another guy potentially getting to ogle your goodies lol). Sounds like he is ok with your dancing, just not so much in public without him. I would try to compromise with him so you can build up some trust, maybe if you wear jeans or pants (instead of shorts) and you only do tricks (no slutty dancin =) and if you have a friend video the tricks you do? That way he can really see whats going on, and hopefully chill out a little. I’m sure it is frustrating as hell for you! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif
My bf is totally cool with me taking and now teaching classes and parties, but he is not cool with me going to pole dance at a bar unless he goes too. I do kinda feel like he is babysitting me, but on the plus side, I know that no guys will mess with me, and he will DD so I get a beer or 2 https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
One other suggestion for ya.. why not ask your studio to do a pole night event on a fri or sat for a hour or 90 min? That way you can dress up sexy, dance with your girls, and THEN you can go to a bar =)

Dayum girl! Good for you! So glad you didn’t give up, look at the amazing opportunities that have come outta this! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
