I've not bought anything from this company personally but everyone I know who did has been very pleased with them:
-
🙂 So nice to see everyone being so positive about their own bodies!
I love my shoulders, back, arms, and hair!
-
Great! 1:15 – 2:15 is my last workshop scheduled for the day, so I'm good any time after that. I hope it'll work out!
-
Sunday would be best for me as well (though I have little blocks open here and there on Friday and Saturday), though I've got a workshop that doesn't end until 2:15.
-
What time are you trying to get it for? The Marion Amber has been kicking my butt and I'd love to learn it!
-
Me too! When is the grand opening?

Can't wait to see the finished product!

I used to wear Pleaser's X-Casino thigh high boots. They were great! Very thick and durable, as they do not stretch. They fit loosely around the thighs and zipped up the sides. They have a 4" platform with a 7 1/2" chunky heel. I never experienced them tearing on the pole. However, I haven't been able to find that exact boot any more. I do think they still make a "Casino" boot, though.

I find that the majority of my students who have this issue are using their ankles to hold up most of their weight instead of their knees. You should be squeezing front to back with your ankles and side to side with both knees and thighs. With a strong climb (crucifix, especially), at any time you should be able to take either your ankles or your thighs off the pole and still be able to stay up. Everyone under-estimates how important that knee grip is!

Chemmie, I don't like to get into the superman from a pike either but I almost always get out of it by ending in a hip hold! 🙂

You can start learning it by putting your bottom hand on the pole and guide yourself into place. Once you're comfortable with that you can bypass that step. 😉

Sensualscimitar, that's how I feel about studios that have too many poles for the instructor to safely monitor (and especially about the studios that don't have enough space around their poles!).
Nymph, I totally agree with that!
-
I need to rephrase that….
10 girls/5 poles is the max I'd be comfortable with. -
I would not feel comfortable being responsible for the safety of that many people and would definitely want another instructor in the room to patrol and watch where I couldn't be. I think 10 is the max I'd be comfortable with and that's pushing it!
