I know Annemarie Davies personally. She has an excellent reputation in the pole world. UPA is her site and pole TV network. Annemarie has been poling since before there WAS a pole dance community and I have never heard a single bad word said about her.

There is an opposition between very strong musculature and flexibility that requires a good deal of attention to stretching and scheduling off days between lifting to avoid becoming so tight that you cannot reach the pole in certain moves. Muscles will change your balance points somewhat, also. Quads and Hams will bulk up faster than biceps and triceps, so pay attention to how that changes your pivot point on your core.

My instructor Maureen told me that Alethea says to clap your hands once really loud in front of you to stop the dizzy feeling. It does work…kind of, lol…

Bem Vindo aos Estados Unidos, Gisa. My sister lives in DC, but unfortunately, I have never been able to try the sport of Pole! I think you will enjoy living there. Washington has so many things to do and it is not quite as expensive as New York. Good luck, I hope you find some pole friends soon!

I hadn’t been aware of the detail that this was a medication side effect. I had assumed it was just a naturally occurring situation and this news makes it that much harder to bear.

I’ve been a member of the pole dancing community for so long now that it seems like a regular part of my identity. Most everyone knows about it and it they don’t it’s just because of random chance it’s never come up in conversation. One advantage of being real old, lol–is that you can get away with more, I guess. And at 53, you just don’t care as much about critical opinions.

I think Barrie Aerial in Canada has almost all the colors of trapeze tape. Google them online. They have matching rigging webbing in different colors also!

I use glycerin also. Available in CVS and Walgreens stores in an all vegetable source for a couple of dollars. The key is not to pole right away. And yes, you REALLY have to rub it in. I use the exfoliating scrubby gloves for that. Being a guy, I don’t *totally* shave the leg hairs off completely, but just trim them down with a buzz shaver 4-5 times a year. That reduces slickness and also makes sweat from bike riding less salty and itchy. Glycerin is perfect for moisturizing and reducing stubble prickles, too!

It gets advanced very quickly, but it’s something for me to aspire to! I’m doing Erin Motz’s 14-17 minute beginner’s lessons on Y-T for now…

I love Kino. Can’t do much of her stuff. But I love her. It’s the voice. And that incredible muscle tone!
