Ok so I can’t get to my oldest vid, hubby pulled everything off imovie https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif So I’ll post these 2. I recorded them within the same week. I hope you can view them someone went on a flagging spree on my vids a while back https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif
Had been pole dancing for 2 months.

2 months and already the SM? WOW, you’ve got some strength, Veena! Did it just come naturally, or did you do other exercise as well?
Also, my first video is easy to find…it’s the only one on my profile! Hehe! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif

Rooooooxyyyyyy! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
Post the tutorial! I keep trying it, and I’m getting slightly closer…I just don’t get how you put your arms behind your back and fling around without wrenching both arms (and shoulders!) right off! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif I’m sort of getting the hand placement, but I feel like I’m missing something rather important…some stability somewhere! And possibly taking an extra step? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif I feel like an https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_elephant.gif when I want to go for a https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif ! -
Hehe, Sakura, I think it really depends on your heritage and your hormones. See, my hormones are insane, so they like to give me huge hips and huge breasts. I also have a farmer-family heritage, so my body thinks I should have had like, three children by now https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
Probably not, but that’s what I think! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif
Honestly, though, I’ve heard of girls finishing their "growth" at the age of 13, whereas mine STARTED at 16, so I had a bit of a slow start. I don’t think you have anything to worry about! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif -
That’s so true, Solya, I have a lack of motivation a lot. I used to have depression in spades, so I suppose the habits still get me sometimes. I’ve been getting better (especially after starting pole dancing regularly, because more exercise is great) but, yes, I keep looking at it like "I’ll never get it…I won’t look as good as ____…I suck."
I think having goals is a big thing, too. Attainable, little goals, as well as cool, big goals (I wish there was a Canadian PDF!) like getting that awesome move, or something!
I’ve started the schedule again, see how it goes. Just writing things down seem to help https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -
Hey there…jeeze, if I could lose a size or so, I’d be fine! Mine are getting bigger! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif I have heard that they don’t stop growing ’till you’re 25, so I’ve got another year to do…and I’ll probably reach somewhere around a 34E. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_neutral.gif They’re hard to deal with.
I’ve heard that your pectoral muscles (I think??) keep them up well. So, the ones in the front of the chest, that also connect over to the arms, creating your armpits. Those ones are good for that kind of thing, I think. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gifAlso, I agree with Sissy, they’re nice. Not to worry. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

Walking in heels, or generally keeping your toes pointed, can result in shortening the calf muscle, so please make sure you stretch it out really well! I’ve never been that used to heeled shoes, so I can get away with a little bit of punishment…but seriously, ladies, be careful!
That said, I often get cramps when my feet get too cold (this was a major issue for a while, it hurt like crazy!), or yes, when I pointed them a lot. I love pointing my toes at random, seeing how far I can get, looking pretty…you know, the usual! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif So, I’d say that when you get a cramp, maybe take a little pause, work the muscles out, flex your foot and massage whichever muscle is giving you a hard time. You’re training a new way of moving, so be patient! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif -
Thanks guys! I’ve been told that a proper schedule would be very good for me, and considering I’m in school, you’d think I could get one down! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif Work shall be starting soon, though, so I’m hopeful that perhaps they’ll give me something *slightly* the same every week, and I can do my thing at the same time every day. Either that, or I’ll have to continue the horrible tradition of waking up every day at 6am. *shudder*
I’ve always found it encouraging to find other people who are interested in the same things I am, and not necessarily at the same skill level. It’s always good to have people who’ve already gotten a move down or can help you diagnose an issue…I just don’t have anyone around my…well, in the whole town, anyways! No people I can relate to, here. That’s why I stick with this place! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
I think perhaps I’ll try to make myself a schedule again, just for the next couple of weeks (the last weeks of school!) and try to kick my own butt to do it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif And make more videos and such! -
I know that for me, because I’m now in school and lugging my backpack and all my stuff around with me, the swinging action bothered my rotator cuff…I got some tendonitis there. In many cases it felt like I’d been shot through the shoulder! I couldn’t stay still for too long, and yet moving hurt. Slouching was terrible. I had to be really careful what I did with my shoulder, all the time!
So, I’d say give it some time. Even go to the doctor about it? That’s how I figured out my own issue. I’ve had problems with tendonitis in my ankles, elbows, and knees as well, so I know how to deal with it at this point. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_safesex.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif -
Hehe, Vodka, I feel the same about the walking…I tend to just walk around for a few turns just…because! I am never sure what to do after a couple of moves. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif

My hair. It’s one of those things I don’t even think about any more, but when I watch the video, I couldn’t count on both hands for lack of fingers how many times I pushed my hair around with one hand! I’m used to longer hair, I’m used to it tied back or whatever…something about my hair drives me crazy when I’m dancing, so I’m always tossing it back with one hand.

Hehe, the only thing I’ve done up till now is spins…a lot of them have required a lot of failure for me to get! I get bruises even still (it’s been a couple years, off and on), such as the giant one that mysteriously showed up on my knee, and the little one that showed up on the inner thigh. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif I once even got a little line of spots down my hip from learning a move. I kinda liked it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif

Wow! I really wish I had a job right now, so I could buy them! Keep posting your secrets, Amcut! I’ll be able to afford them one day! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

For me, it depends on if you mean realistically, or for fantasy.
Realistically, I like a nice person, with a great mind (I don’t want to be able to run verbal circles around him!), smallish but with nice muscle definition. I’m lucky to have found these things and more in my husband! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
However, if you mean in the realm of fantasy (by this I mean…I would dream about it and write about it, but in reality I would never be in a relationship with a man like this) I like something entirely different! Broad of shoulder and chest, muscular (though more on the lean side), confident bordering on arrogant, powerful…or possibly on the wrong side of the law, like a pirate. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_pirat.gif
The main similarities between the two is the brains. I cannot deal with a man that can’t keep up with me, mentally. I did that once, and it was bad! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gifOh, and if you wanna go for something really off-the-wall, I like my girls little, thin, and punky. You know…those little punk girls with the lip piercings and the long bangs that cover one eye, or whatever? So cute! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif

What is that move at 1.48?! It’s like a Brass Monkey / Cupid hybrid!
Brass Monkey + Cupid = Brass Cupid.
Sorry, I’m tired. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Amyxshi, I actually find pole dancing very sexy…but I suppose it’s more that I don’t find it sexual. I don’t enjoy things that are really overtly sexual with dance, I like it if it’s all innuendo. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif Like the Tango! What a hawt dance https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
I find pole dancing sexy because of the flow, the passion, and the individuality of it. I believe I had said before somewhere…what we find sexy is personal, so for some people, they like feet, and other people like boobs, and some people like the whole package…but only when it’s moving! All kinds of things. So we can tailor pole dancing to what we want, depending on what we want from the dance itself. Thus, if we WANT it to be sexy, we can make it so…and if we don’t, then we don’t have to! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif -
Halfjack, I’m working up to this move, too! I’m just having troubles being comfortable upside down, and being up too high on the pole…so my cross knee release is getting better https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
Let me know what works for you! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -
I am married to an odd one…mostly because when I look at pole videos, he doesn’t want to watch them. He just says "I want to watch YOU do it, not someone else!" I don’t know if it’s really a matter of sexiness when it comes to non-stripper pole dancing, it’s more of the passion we feel for the art, the strength and beauty of it, rather than the sexiness. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif

Okay, tell me if I’m wrong with this one…you swing both legs, and the feet kind of come in and around, so that they "meet" in the middle (or look like they do) and then up, and by then your legs are all set up to go into the V-splits?
If this be the case, then this is what I understand of it: You gotta have your knees together at first, and your feet up…push both feet out, knees together (this will feel really awkward), and as you bring them down, open your knees, so that when your feet continue their circle upwards, you can see them, if you’re an audience! And as they come up (and look like they’re meeting in between, there) and reach the top of the circle again where they started, your knees are already open, so you can just continue with the momentum into a V-split…as far as you can! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
I recommend finding a few videos of it, if you can (Try Leigh ann? She’s got some awesome floor work!) and just try to slow it down, work it out in your head. That’s how I figure out most moves like this! I could tell you how a lot of moves work, without even being able to do them! Problem with that, though, is I don’t understand transitions or anything…I tend to work off an ideal.
Perhaps I’ll practice them and put up a video for you? If that is the move you’re looking for! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -
Polergirl, I think I may need an example video for this one! Do you mean when you’re lying on your back, legs up, and doing circles with your feet? Or something else? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

PDR, I have some questions:
First, Lush products are what I normally use for things like moisturizers and such, and I was wondering if their lotions would be good for a tattoo. They’re all natural, and if you like, I could send you the ingredients list! It’s right on the jar. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
Next, what would you say about Emu oil for the "scarring" portion, instead of Vitamin E and Aloe? Just curious. I heard this stuff is really, really awesome for the prevention and cure of scars.
Last, and this is more of a question for me…have you ever seen cartilage piercings that have skin growing over the jewellery, but no keloids? Keloids, I’m told, should be hard, round, and practically impossible to remove. My cartilage piercings have skin, and it swells and recedes, depending on if the planets are aligning in such a way, or if Japan got an earthquake recently (not really, I have no idea…they just get irritated). It’s soft and not round. My piercings haven’t healed in just over 3 or 4 years (I can’t remember exactly). This is why I ask about Emu oil, because that’s what my piercer suggested. I found some Emu oil cream (the only thing I could find, actually) and have been using it every evening for about a week. Obviously, I don’t expect results right now, but I was wondering if you had any other ideas? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif -
englann86, I think this is how my sister was told to deal with her tattoo, as well! She would come home from work on her lunch break and beg me to put the ointment on, ’cause it itched so much! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif Hers looks great, though, and I think she’s really happy with it!
And I agree…pictures! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -
I just wish I could muck about on the pole in my sweat pants and gym top for a living!!! That would be perfect!
Don’t we all? If I could have a life of just dancing and writing and being with my man, I would think it was heaven! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif -
Hey there,
I’ve wanted to get a tattoo for years, and unfortunately, I haven’t found something quite right for me yet. The tattoo itself will determine where I get it, so this is somewhat important to me, as well. One day, I’ll be doing advanced moves, and also one day, I might finally find "the thing."
However, what little knowledge I have tells me that healing time depends on your body! For example, I have two ear piercings in each of my earlobes…one pair by the needle, and one by the gun. Needle ones (done professionally, of course) took barely two weeks. Gun ones, well…they infected within days, and still give me problems. But, the most telling thing? I’ve had cartilage piercings for more than three years, and they STILL haven’t healed! I don’t have keloids, but the skin is doing some weird thing where it’s trying to grow over the original jewellery…so my piercer and I are trying different things to help it along.
Thus, I know…healing is specific to each person. I have heard many people say that you have to be very careful about movement, things such as moving that part of your body (in your case, your shoulders, neck, and back) too much too often, because you may cause the ink to spread to places you don’t want it. I don’t know about the specifics of that one, but it would be something to look into. Also, your tattoo (from what I saw of my sister) will itch like crazy, require a lot of cream, and will make your skin go insane. She developed a patch of dry skin that looked uncannily like a scab without the blood, which eventually came off and the whole thing relaxed.
So, here’s my suggestion: Find your tattoist, and talk to them. Ask them every question you can think of. Look it up on the internet, do your research, find out all the information! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_safesex.gif
That way, if you have issues, you know how to deal with it…and issues will become a lot less likely if you know what you’re getting yourself into! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gifLet me know how it goes, when you do it? I’m a big baby when it comes to stuff like that, so I’m curious to know how various people take it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif

I agree with the above, but personally, I know I wouldn’t do it! I’m also married, and my goods are for my man…I would have major issues with doing stripping in this way.
I did want to add, however, that men don’t look at women’s bodies the way women do. Women like lots of specifics, especially about their own bodies…you know, muscle definition, well shaped boobs, the ass. We’re into specifics because (this is just my own theory) men are kind of boring to look at. There’s no curvature or anything, they’re just straight…but if you get a little more specific than just "naked man" then OH BOY, there’s all kinds of things to think about! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif
However, men are not so specific. They’re just kind of like "Naked woman! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif " and that’s about it. They don’t think about how your breasts aren’t the same size, or how you can’t quite bend over all the way because of tight hamstrings (like me) or what shape your rear is. They just like the female form in general, because it’s nice to look at…in ALL it’s forms! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif
So, if you’re feeling self-conscious because you don’t know if you’ll be well-received, then put your fears to rest. A new naked woman is an amazing naked woman. A familiar naked woman…is also an amazing naked woman. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif -
MsWild…I’m horribly jealous. I want horses. Seriously. That’s just the most awesome thing I’ve ever heard, and you’ve just given me a new life goal.
But, seriously, I think that women (and men!) of all life stages and all walks can do this if they want to, and it would create a very diverse and fun community full of different perspectives, understandings, and ways of doing things. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
