My mom knew about pole fitness before I started so when I told her I bought a pole and was learning she responded with 'Oh I know about all of that. It looks like a great workout!" she always reads my blogs and watches my videos 🙂

My whole family is very suppportive of it actually. My dad was the one who came and helped me fix my pole with it slipped and got so stuck my muslces couldn't get it down.

With all the talk about legalizing it I thought I should mention another option. Something that was done here in B.C Canada. Decriminalize it.

I live in northern BC and I honestly think I'm one of the like 5 people in my larger city that doesn't smoke. Its just not for me.

With decriminalization if you have under a certain amount on you (don't remember what that amount is off hand) and you are caught by cops it will be confiscated but there will be not charges. There will only be charges if you are caught with an amount that would be deemed as someone who is dealing it.

This is not prefect at all but I wanted to share an alternative to the legal or non legal options. There is still a lot of talk about legalizing pot in Canada and honestly I am for medical marijuana. If Marijuana were to become legal we would probably have teh same restrictions around it as we do for alcohol. Age limits, not smoking in public places.(like how you are not allowed to drink in the streets or will be arrested for being a drunk public nuisance) If the government were to control it it would be safer. What a lot of people don't realized is that dealers are cutting their pot with other drugs like cocaine to make them have a stronger effect. This is dangerous and many people out there buying have no idea. 

If it were made legal it could be controlled and made safer and the government could tax the hell out of it and funnel that money into other health programs. (Unlikely but I'm an idealist.)

This is a great discussion and like it has been stated before I love that we are all so polite and respectful about a sensitive topic. There is a lot of great information and opinions in here. 🙂

Happy Birthday! I hope you have a special day with your loved ones. 😀

I think it would be an awesome idea to look into but it will depend a lot on the amount of applicants and interest we get from this round of scolarships. I would be open to doing this again if it is successful. 🙂

I personally don't wear rings but i always make people take theirs off before playing on my pole so they dont' scratch it. 🙂

[Krissykiki]

I ran into fear of letting myself fall into spins a lot (sometimes still do) when I was first starting out. I just kept pushing myself in class over and over again and repeating tomyself I can do this I can do this. I find pole involves working through mental barriers all the time. Also if you don't have a pole at home, go scout out some playgrounds near by and practice stuff on the poles there. 🙂

Good luck and keep at it! You will get through this and improve. 🙂
