Wow. The studio I go to charges $9 per class, less if you buy classes in bulk. Each class is 50 minutes long and they are group classes (there’s 19 poles in one room so it can hold up to 19 people). They do offer private lessons for around $100 I think.

My husband dedicated Lady of my Life to me (and even asigned it as my ring tone on his phone https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif ) so I’m pretty sure I want to do that one, but I loooove Human Nature to death. I think I’m gonna have to do 2 dances LOL.

Wonderful! You’ve learned a lot in 3 weeks! I love the way you move.

Sissy I’ll wrestle you for it! I was going to do thriller for my 80s challenge but that never happened lol. But I could also do dirty diana since he obviously wrote that about me!!!

Yes he definitely did, you dirty dirty girl https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif

I love all the songs everyone is suggesting. There are sooo many options LOL. Maybe I’ll make a master mix of my favorites LOL.

Yeah right, like I have that kind of skill https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif

What an amazing site. Having carried almost 14 pounds of baby in my at once (my surrogate twins were 6lbs 14ozs each), I try not to look at myself as "ruined". I try to see those stretch marks and hanging skin as my badge of honor for creating not just two lives, but an entire family. It’s tough to see them that way when I am trying to climb the pole and can’t move an inch LOL. I will get there though…

Yes you will Charilee! I keep meaning to take some pictures oy m stretchmarks for this site. I used to be so embarrassed of the "wounds" left behind by my kids but what opened my eyes was other women at the pool and at the beach with (what was in my original opinion) a lot worse bodies than me and they didnt care. They sported their flab and strecthmarks with pride as they spalshed with their lovely kids in the pool.

That’s when I stopped comparing myself to things that are just unrealistic. I know J-Lo has twins but she probably had a full time dietitcian, nutritionist and trainer at her side for the full (whatever) months she was pregnant. Yeah Angelina Jolies has had like 18 kids but genetics have a say in a lot of things and if I compare myself to my grandma I’m doing pretty damn good (sorry abuela) and even nt compared to anyone I should just be glad that whatever body I have, it’s getting my through everyday life so I can spend one more day with those I love. I end my rant here https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Should we all call songs so we all dont end up ding the same one? LOL. Not that I wouldn’t mind seeing a boatload of Thriller dances!

I invert occasionally…the bulk of my practices are spent upverted (is that a word?) so I can’t say for sure but when I do (occasionally) invert it doesn’t bother me or my pole that much but like I said…….it’s occasionally….very very…occasionally, LOL https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

why’d I even post that after you Az that was a waste of time LOL.

[SissyBuns]

Where’s the "F’ing sweet!" emoticon…. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif This is close enough! I can’t wait to see everyones work!

[SissyBuns]

I have mine done and it’s well healed so even if it does come into contact with the pole it doesn’t bother me or maybe I just adjust abit to the left or right.

I’m still a noob though so I’m not doing all that extra cool fancy stuff yet….

I’m trying to work my way around Windows Movie Maker. Haven’t been able to completely edit a vid yet…but I’m working on it LOL. It seems relatively easy to use and it’s free if you already have windows.

Thanks Foxy https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

I wish I could help you here Jeng but I haven’t the foggiest.

Lily – good call on the arnica! I use the same cream, as well as little arnica tablets that dissolve under the tongue. I have found they work miracles and I can wear shorts now. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif

I also love to soak in a hot bath of epsom salts – that always makes my muscles soften and relax. So good before bedtime! I drink lots of water and firmly believe that you are what you eat. That being said, I will look like a pizza tomorrow.

I have always used Biofreeze for sore muscles after running and lifting, I used this recently after a few days of going hard on the pole (lol, that sounded funny) and it helped tons!
