I agree with Fleur… having grown up in Finland and then moving to the States I saw those differences.
Then in college we learned the theory that there is a difference between being naked and nude. It is one thing to be seen as an object (sexual or not) versus just being clothes-less. -
I love expert village! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gifYeah right? They have everything there.

-Running/jogging? You only need a good sports bra and running shoes. Relatively cheap compared to poling. LOL.
-The "Cardio Kickbox" from the Biggest Loser series or Jillian is an awesome 25 minute workout and you can burn up to 300 calories!
-I love doing really high intensity dancing at home… add some squats and kicks. -
You don’t have to join a class to get flexible. Yoga and other stretches are easy to do at home. Just remember to warm up and not push it too far or too fast. I love classic dance or ballet stretches… simple but effective.

A ton of space is ideal but we don’t all live in big houses or have studios close to our house. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif When my pole is in my living room I can get 3 sides to be pretty open (after pushing the furniture aside) but on one side I keep kicking the couch.

It stinks because I really want to get an X-Pole for colder seasons. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

I think we all get tall ceiling envy here… especially after watching all those competitions with the 20 foot poles. LOL! I think you can still learn a lot even with lower ceilings. In the beginning you aren’t going to be doing a lot of jumping or inverting anyways (or least you shouldn’t!) A lot of moves just require you to hold the pole above your head and that is about it. I think you’ll be fine.
As far as the mum goes… I wish ya luck. -
I have done some of the moves for obliques and abs from the ExpertVillage vids…
