I took Natasha Wang’s workshop at last year’s PoleCon. We did a ton of Meathook stuff – the move itself, some variations, entries and exits.
I know that I wouldn’t miss a chance to train with Phoenix! I guess her signature move is the Titanic. She’s so graceful and fluid; I would want to do a dance-based class with her.

Eatvegancookies, I have that “problem” and prefer to wear the Nike Pro 2.5″ compression shorts. They are not low-waisted so they actually cover my entire seat and don’t ride up too bad.

I teach 10 to 15 hours of pole classes, get in at least 3 hours of personal practice, teach an hour of lyra, and throw in some extra floorwork, flexibility, head/hand stand or floor inversions, aerial, or hoopdance per week. Teaching takes up most of what used to be my free time so I do a lot less working out for myself now. But I still get plenty of exercise from it!

Sparrow, David is a huge fan of spins on the static pole, both from the floor and aerially (yes, it’s possible!). Both techniques seem to be under-utilized and he would like to see that changed!

Yes, he really is! I’m glad you enjoyed the interview. π

Here’s part 2 of the interview! Thanks for waiting patiently. π Please consider subscribing to my channel if you like the interview. I’ve got one up with Rebecca Starr as well and plan on doing more in the future!

At Defiance we offer co-ed classes but only at the intermediate and advanced levels. All beginner classes are same sex. We have one male-only class per week that they can come to to work up to the level to be integrated with the ladies. I find that it weeds out anyone just coming in to be pervy and it lets the women get comfortable with themselves before having to be scantily clad around the guys. However, our open pole times are co-ed as well.

I've heard Nadia refer to it as the Superman Split. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

Nope, can't legally use Sirius:
"The Service is not authorized for use as an
accompaniment to dancing, use by a DJ or use in connection with a business that charges an
admission fee (such as nightclubs, bowling alleys, fitness centers, skate parks, etc.)."http://www.siriusxm.com/pdf/siriusxmbiz_customeragreement_eng.pdf

Actually, nevermind. It looks like they only cover instructors and not studios. :/

Firebird, thanks for the info! When going through Alternative Balance Therapies, did you select dance or fitness? Also, is pole specifically mentioned on your policy?
