Wow, I didn’t expect this thread to take off quite so well, whooop! Thanks for offering your studio space. I am definately up for that weekend (already in the diary!) My pole buddy,who doesn’t use SV as she’s comp illiterate lol would like to come too if that’s ok with people?
Eeeek this is very exciting! 😀 -
Well if everyone asks their own studio and we can go from there yeah? I’m thinking there might be an issue with insurance but that could be resolved with the instructor being there perhaps? X

Check out this video on YouTube:

Erm…. Speechless. Damn these gymnasts and their uber flexibility!
-
So last year did we discuss a program to follow to get them?? i.e which exercises to do and how often ?
-
Open to any UK polers by the way not just Northerners 🙂
-
Thats exactly the reason I would consider it and probably even try it Hazelnut. I dont think I could live off the dole. Id at least have to try it if I couldnt earn money doing something easier. I dont think it would be an easy or fun job for me though.
Loving all the responses 🙂
Also wondering if the employment law is different in the UK and if you would get a basic minimum wage working in clubs here rather than having to hussle for some money?
-
I’m game 🙂

Don’t let other people’s progress s are you from a fabulous journey learning pole. Have you spoken to your instructor about how you feel? They shod give you tips specific to your ability 🙂

Ceri, I can do intermediate moves but I can’t dance for shit…..we all gotta try harder at something! I bet the others in your class look at your dancing and think, damn, why can’t I dance like that!! keep trying. Push ups, the plank, and crunches at home will build strength for pole pretty quickly providing you make sure technique is correct and not lazy 🙂

Ok they should have shown the you tube video…. Wow! Is she double jointed or something?? She is the most flexy person I have ever seen!

Bit of info from the app itself
This resource is the result of a two year research project looking at working conditions in the strip and lap dancing industry, based at the University of Leeds from 2010-2012 by Dr Teela Sanders, Dr Kate Hardy and Rosie Campbell.This information is written for dancers and mainly by dancers as consulting with women who work in the industry has been at the heart of the research.

Is this the routine you would do in the comp Legend? You are so good 🙂
-
They are a necessity!!

We learn on 50s at my studio but I struggled with hand grip as I’m only little so I bought a 45 for home. Now I’m better at pole I don’t struggle as much on the 50 but for new moves I find it easier to learn on the 45 then transfer to the 50. ESP superman!!
-
Only polers could get excited about magnetic levels!! 🙂
-
Cherished that is a great vid, thanks for posting. This is what I need to do, strip it down and take it right back. I thought because my EB is solid I would be ok but it’s the balance thing that I’m struggling with so I’m defo going to practice it this way. 🙂
-
I don’t like the elbow grip so am trying it split grip from extended butterfly. I can take my legs off but flip to the side almost instantly.. I guess that’s just finding and maintaining your centre though? Stupid move!!
-
Also ext butterfly, to flatline Scorpio to bow and arrow…
-
I like fan kick into pole sit and from there a CKR/CAR to bridge. Also Scorpio to fallen angel to Scorpio is easy but pretty 🙂
-
What level are you looking for Sasha?
-
Trixie kicks, that is so true! I did the same a d was inverting with no momentum within 2 months!
-
I would defo recommend going to a studio to try it out before you spend £150 on a pole. Pole is an exciting and addictive but frustrating journey and personally I think I would have given up if I had been working at it from home alone. Even with the support of SV!
Good luck with you journey, don’t get too hung up on progressing quickly, take your time and learn to do things correctly and safely the first time and you will progress faster in the long run.
If I had the net I would totally get SV lessons. She is an excellent tutor.
You will be sore and bruised but there is nothing better than nailing a move and as we say no pain no gain 🙂
