    Yeah I saw this post and have been putting it to practice. first time was very painful, but well worth it to know that it will pay off…eventually.

    thanks!

    on another note: when you’re doing the basic invert are you using the inner thigh or calf muscle to hold urself up?

    ooh Congrats. Im still working hard on that. Boy my arms hurt. how long did it take for you to be able to do it..practice wise. I know everyone is different, but still would like to know.
    I am only able to get my legs up and hang upside down (1/2 invert i suppose), but then end up sliding down pole ever so slowly .

    I do have strength building moves you can do with your pole on my online lesson vids! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_elephant.gif *toots her own horn* LOL. Pole dancing takes a lot of practice and strength. If your sore from the day before then don’t work on spins or moves the next day…you want your muscles to recover….but you could work on flexibility by just dancing around to get your heart rate up a bit and then stretching. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif If you have questions the girls here have some great advice and are always ready to support a fellow poler! One more thing PLEASE be careful with that pole…..its not meant to handle much as far as tricks go. I have heard many stories of this pole falling, bending and damaging the ceiling. Be safe…be gentile with that pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

    Hi Veena…can you link me to your video or the title of the video…i tried looking on your page but couldnt find it. Thanks a whole bunch!

    Thanks all. I will be careful and hopefully when i can pull my body up and do an actual spin, then i’ll purchase the X-pole for SURE.

    It is difficult but will keep pushing at it…looks soooo awesome!
