I need a M/L 🙁 thank you for the response tho!
-
this is the top I’m looking for. Or something VERY similar. I have the bottoms already so it would need to match at least decently (and I’m only using it to create the nude effect so the sparkly ones from other brands, while pretty, would not work)

She’s brand new! She’s looking for a an avenue to start!

Ooooh my friend went to see absinthe recently! I’ll ask him how it was!! Thanks for the advice!

I’m staying at the hostel but groupon sometimes has hotel deals too. Or check on kayak. Airbnb has a few good deals if u can commit far in advance for specific dates!

I’ll be going! Went a couple years ago and was really sad I couldn’t make it last year. I’m doing 5 workshops total and staying extra days. Vegas is my home away from home due to my ex being stationed out there, so I’ll be staying a little longer to see friends and train at the local studios. Always looking for other “stuff” to do outside of the workshops! I enjoyed the free “workshops” last time but glad I was able to book the paid ones this year.
If anyone has suggestions of fun stuff to do, let’s hear it! Some friends and I talked about an escape room last year, I planned to go out to the Grand Canyon one day, already saw the Hoover dam, plan to see another cirque show or two and check out the garden at MGM. Making a list! Any suggestions are welcome!!

Any idea what the occasion was for the 50% off shipping? That would be a great sale to catch!
-
$150* (typo)

I too am in the market but was shocked at the $160 shipping. I buy things like dog food online and most large ticket purchases companies offer free shipping, but alas… Anyone found a way to bypass shipping? Retailers don’t exactly stock these and they’re still responsible for shipping. Only thing I can think of is buying at expo and driving it home, but that’s too far away as I want to get it to practice for competitions in a couple months. Anyone, ideas?

Yeah those are the ones I wanted most too! >.< popular!

Sold! Email me for details of how to get you the $$! Desireegattis@gmail.com

Care credit – my mom maxed out my card on an emergency for her dog a while back and because she has only been able to pay enough on it to keep it from going over the limit (coupled w my student loans causing a highly problematic income to debt ratio) they won’t extend my credit limit. 🙁
Thank you for all the kind words! We were warned about there being another tear down the line bc of the imbalance 🙁 being a hound AND lab he’s apparently predisposed to joint problems and hip displaysia. Found that out in September when it all began :/ thank you for sharing your story. I’m so sorry your baby had to experience this too :'( having one of your kiddos hurt and being unable to do anything about it is the worst feeling in the world.

Currently nursing a torn adductor myself. I (quite literally) feel your pain. Avoid using it as much as possible (duh). I went to a physical therapist who does sports medicine massage and he was ridiculously helpful. Moved me around, broke up some scar tissue that was forming (OWW), Put those bulbs on the site where the heat creates a suction and pulls your skin (and blood) into the bulb, and applied some Chinese tincture anti inflammatory which freakin rocked. I would strongly suggest seeing a physical therapist. It’s truly worth the money if this is your career—not to mention your health and passion. I’m in the EXACT same boat. It was well worth the investment. Also, REGULAR icing. This is what I did for about a week or two
Ice on 7min
Let it Warm up naturally to ambient temp
I’ve on 7 min
Let it warm up again
Soak in a hot Epsom salt back for 7-10min and REST (did this right before bed)
It really helped. I’m still healing but I can pole and I’m starting to gain more mobility as I break up the scar tissue (again, OWW)
Rule of thumb, if movement hurts… Don’t. Get creative and find a way around it. Very challenging sometimes. Good vibes for quick healing!! -
Would love to know how this holds up while dancing. Sliding into elbow stands from a prone position WRECKS my nail polish and the tip front of my heels. Be sure to update us on how well it keeps for you!
-
I’ll be going! I’m flying solo from my dance studio in Tallahassee, FL but I’d love to meet some of you ladies!! I’m attending basically everything that’s free lol LOTS of floorwork! (Made sure to order my knee pads months ago;)
-
bad kitty would have been my FIRST brand choice, but these aren’t nearly long enough D: I’ll check out the others! thanks SO much for all the suggestions! I really like the length! and I have NO idea why it didn’t occur to me to just cut/sew stirrups into a part >.< ...I'm gonna have a new polewear addiction

where is Melbourne, Vic? I think I must be reading this incorrectly. Also, how much are you asking? and how much use have they seen?
-
DONE! I’m sold. I’m building these or having some installed. End of story.
-
At the risk of sounding naive, what are stall bars used for aside from maybe over split training? I’ve seen them in photos but never understood their use for gymnastics or pole.
-
I’ve had this problem virtually every time and I just wiggle it until it miraculously comes apart. I haven’t found a real solution, but I hope someone here can provide something more concrete!
-
No, I was under the impression you had to have a lesson membership to access them. I’m paying 3 hospital bills right now so even the $30 for this is pushing it but I’ve GOT to do something bc I’m having little to no success on my own.
-
Will do! And god I’d KILL for those ceilings!!!! So jealous!

I called x-pole recently about this. They’re in the process of having them shipped and cleared through US customs to be able to sell them in the States. About 2-3 wks ago they said it would be roughly 3-6wks before they expect them in the US so it should be any time now!
I haven’t heard of the other website honestly but I’m definitely going to check it out. I’m fairly loyal to x-pole so I may wait, especially if there is a large price difference

Art if the Catwalk closed a few years ago but Queen of Hearts is incredible. I am a member there and couldn’t love it more 🙂 it’s literally my home away from home and they offer a LOT more than just pole too!

Funny you mention that. I have had pain in my forearm about halfway down, on the outside of the arm between the muscles/near the bone as well as excessive tightness after poling. My teacher said it was probably over use and I should take it easy and ice it regularly but it’s only starting to subside and it’s been nearly 3 months. I don’t want this to become chronic but I also don’t want to stop entirely either. I’m glad you mentioned this! Maybe someone will have some answers for us!
