    Welcome RedVelvet27, what do you envision your pole buddy relationship looking like? Is this a long distance skyping relationship or are you looking for someone local?  Do you want to physically meet up to pole or just share thoughts and ideas?  Just curious.

    Here is my starting point: https://www.studioveena.com/photos/view_album/521b6dcf-3df4-4ff9-8ac9-62430ac37250.

    I will be working on my side splits only. I hope to have both of them by Christmas.

    I am certainly in and I guess since we have our new thread, we should explain the rules of engagement and since I’m new to this…I have no clue. 🙂

    I am very far away from splits also but I am in. This will give me the extra push to get my splits. And I definetly think we should start a new thread. I think more people will be interested and more willing to read and join.

    I have no comment on performance costumes but I did watch Veronica Solimano's performance and that was so awesome! That is such unique style with strength and gymnastics.  Very impressive and the outfit was cute too!

    Thank you for sharing. Do you have before and after pics? That is awesome. So how did you build your strength?

    July 22, 2013 at 11:48 am in reply to: Pain with the Pole Sit

    I am almost a complete newbie so I have little advice but I can say it does get easier.  I had the same problem.  The first few times hurt but were tolerable.  Then I became extra sensitive there and it almost made me cry to try a pole sit.  I just kept at it and now most of the time, if I get the sweet spot, it is tolerable.  I still have trouble with laybacks and that is hindering my cross knee and cross ankle releases.  I know those will get better too.

    As far as the 21 times Koidragon, it's probably because after 21 times it becomes something the skin can say is a "habit".  It takes 21 times for something to become a habit.  It worked for me in letting go of chocolate (for awhile), I didn't eat it for 21 days in a row and I was in the habit of not eating chocolate.  I lost it after six months but I might try it again soon.

    I have extreme sensitivity in the front of the shin though apparently.  I have the strength for a side climb but I can't put enough pressure on my lower leg to remove the weight from the knee hold.  It is soooo painful.  Does this go away too?

    I have taken a few days off and they feel better.  Thank you so much for your advice.
