Hi 5 butterflies, I posted this before my 1st routine I was so stuck on moves etc so I took the advice and thought I'd work on the dance element of things, thats when Mr Nice (the other half) gave me his pole dancing tutorial haha. Blues much better now had some excellent advice from here, theres so many lovely people on here I really cant fault it. I really do hope x pole sort it out for you. God I know how it feels (without the expense mind). I had a my sexy little pole beginning of the year and booked my first private lesson just before mothers day, the weekend before my lesson I over turned the spring loading system and completly ruined my pole. Massive panic on, I had an instructor coming to the house with no pole!!! Luckly the genorous Mr Nice bought me an Xpole just in time (he's not all bad). But my 1st pole was a cheap spring loaded thing not an expensive x pole. xx

The ankle protectors are really good but the tack strips do start to come off. I think if they had a few more stitches running down the strip as well as the stitching going along the strips they may be a bit more resiliant. The tighter they are the better I personally think,they are hard to pull on and off but I like them to feel secure and they really do. I think the inner thigh protectors are an amazing idea, that is the main place I bruise and it looks terrible. So will be looking forward to the thigh protectors get me 1st on your list.xx

I have the tack gloves and the tack anklets and both are breaking. My gloves are ripping and fraying at the seams, and the anklets stiching is all breaking where it holds the tack strips on, I'll probably re-sew these in a different way as it looks like the stitches have snapped when the material is stretched around my foot. But I can still use the gloves I have had them a good few months so should get a bit more wear out of them. I love the anklets they save my feet from so many bruises.

Hi Tarah, scary isnt it you think your proggressing well and enjoying learning then all of a sudden it goes tits up and for no apparent reason. Wanting to get on the pole but cant find the get up and go, and when you do give yourself that much needed kick up the butt you cant do anything. Big downer! I'm not gona try anything new for a while now just gona take the fab advice off Cinara and Nymphdancer (thank you ladies) and have some fun with the stuff I have learnt so far. It can feel like a jungle sometimes so many moves to learn along with fluidity, grace, your own dance style. Funny you should say you've just been on holidays I went away in June and it was 2 weeks after coming home that I started feeling like this!! Perhaps its not pole blues its post holiday blues??? Who knows?? Keep smiling and enjoy your pole, hope you feel better soon xx

Hi, Thank you so much for all your advice, def need to have fun with the pole and stop stressing over all the stuff I cant do, sure it will all come with time. I am quite determined so when I cant do something it does get me down and I find it hard to put it behind me and focus on something else. And I suppose the constant trying makes me ache all over so I get mentally and physically worn out. I am very self critical and sometimes dont know how to relax with the pole, even if I try freestyling I'm constantly stopping/starting correcting myself. Think I'll try a bit of fun dancing about being silly and not caring what I look like (easier said than done) let the inhabitions go a bit. Thanks again really appreciate your advice xxx
