    I did a similar thing stretching for middle splits, something went pop on the inside of my thigh. At the time it wasn’t painful the day and months after it was and I lost ALL flexibility in that leg.
    I very much recommend rest, do NOT stretch it and visit a Physio ASAP. I left mine alone for about 6 months, it didn’t get any better and as a result my hip has tightened and the nerve in the thigh too. My Physio has me doing exercises for my hip and to lengthen the nerve now. It is helping massively.

    My pole left a mucky ring too on the ceiling, I just got a baby wipe on it and it worked a treat, marks came right off 🙂

    Haha.. This reminds me of a little tale…took my goddaughter to Tesco last year, whilst waiting in the barriers at the check out she started swinging around the poles that hold the line in place, and shouted at the top of her voice, “Auntie Shona, you do this at home!”, everyone in the que wa watching and listening.. Hehehe!

    March 9, 2013 at 7:31 am in reply to: Arms are getting bigger…..help!!?

    Haha… I had a similar dilemma..When I started poling I felt that my arms were NOT toned and looked wide. It didnt bother me massively but I did look longingly at toned/muscley arms and wish I had them! Anyhow, I didnt start pole to change my body, but a lot of changes happened, including beefcake arms!

    At least now my arms have the tone that I wanted and my bingo wings have gone, so even though my arms are actually bigger they look smaller 🙂 yey! I love standing in the mirror and flexing my muscles, hahaha!!! 🙂

    Email your tutor and mention it, you are not being rude, you have seen an opportunity for them and you. You could ask for a space in the advanced class at the cost of the class you go to now in return.
    I understand what you mean, I had that happen at our last jam and I ended up cold, couldn’t warm up again, so didn’t end up practicing anything, I was very annoyed.
    Also, maybe it’s just time to switch to the higher class then you can be the one to ask others 🙂
    Do you get tutoring time from the teacher in your current class?

    I have only used Xpole xperts, in gold and chrome. I use 50mm at studio and bought a 45mm for home. I love it and it was worth EVERY PENNY!

    February 20, 2013 at 4:59 pm in reply to: Xpole spider top anyone ??

    I got a medium spider top, I am a 34 C. I love the top but agree with all above comments, it rides up so you’re constantly pulling it down -annoying, the ring digs in your back when laid down, the straps dig into my shoulders. Overall dissapointing, I still wear it but mainly because its pretty and my bf bought it me for Xmas. Functionality wise it’s rubbish 🙁

    Lizzie, you cant put poles up that go on ceiling as its a floating ceiling so needs extra support where those poles go, but, it is a MASSIVE space so there would defo be room for a stage pole. The studio has 4 spinning top loading xpoles ( lost the screws for all of them so no option anymore) there is a lot of space that can be used for stretching/ floorwork etc and plenty of mats. Not sure ho high the ceilings are x

    So are we back looking at Burnley then? And maybe arrange another jam for later in the year at the other studio once the owner comes back off matt leave? If so Saturday 20th or 27th April are good for me, will of course have to re-check dates at studio.

    If you are up for spinning poles, possibility of a stage if Lizzie can come, in Burnley on either 20th or 27th April say yes and I will check dates on Monday x

    Amiloo, thank you for offering, I have just checked out your studio and it looks ANAZING! I am jealous! However, Dorking is too far for me to come, 5 hours :-/ it might be worth splitting the thread to suggest a Southern jam though? Is anyone else from down your way? Xx
