    Ok maybe we should make a list so that it’s clear who is coming so far? i’ll start by listing some people who have said they definitely want to come. Everyone else can copy/paste to add their name to the list (no need to quote the whole post). I know this might take up space in the thread, but at least that way people will have a greater chance of seeing this list so they know to add their name. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif

    1. azriel
    2. sissybuns
    3. jungle cat
    4. roxy-pink
    5. amcut

    7. punkrocgirlie
    8. rara
    9. *********
    10. beccagirl
    11. kari
    12. curvydva

    I totally agree with kari & roxy-pink!! that’s a beautiful picture, & yeah, most people post pictures in bikinis at the beach & that’s not considered too naked! not sayin this in a mean way or anything, but sounds like you may have a couple friends who are just a tad envious.. i vote leave your picture up! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

    October 18, 2009 at 6:36 pm in reply to: Balance left and right

    I’m the same way- although my right arm is stronger than my left, i find some moves to be easier on my left. I think that flexibility might have something to do with this.. if you’re more flexible on your left arm, then certain spins which require more arm flexibility (like reverse grab) may be easier on left. I also found that the right side of my waist is more flexible than the left, so spins/moves that require waist to bend a certain way are easier on that side.
    Also it seems like many beginners tend to grip too much with their strong hand, so using the sub hand for the main grip may give more spin around the pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
    Either way, best to practice everything on both sides!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/alien.gif

    October 15, 2009 at 12:48 am in reply to: reverse grab reverse pinwheel combo

    This move requires quite a bit of momentum as well as some distance between your body and the pole. I find that the timing of the switch is also important.. if you switch to pinwheel too late, you’ll have run out of spin-momentum. I usually start transitioning into the 2nd part right after i have grabbed the pole with my bottom arm (for RG)- right before i corner in for a complete circle around the pole. so by the time i’ve made my first circle around the pole, i’m already in pinwheel. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif But this could be different for different people. hope that makes some sense!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

    Maybe it would be easier if we could all arrange a time to meet in chat to talk about it? from what i understand, we dont really want to have any instructing.. just a party. It doesn’t seem like only 6 poles will be enough for us (P-spot), especially for only an hour or two. The prices at x-pose are really good (depending on how many of us end up going), but i do understand that it can be a problem for some if it’s not metro accessible. Maybe those of us with cars can arrange to carpool with those flying in.. if everyone stays at a hotel near the studio, i’m sure this wont be a problem ?? How many poles does Body Talk have? i say we meet in chat!

    Sissy i think that sound great!!! thanks so much for asking the studio owner(s) about our jam! I’ll be able to make it no matter which day/time we decide on, but i do love the idea of saturday 4 & 6! and i’d definitely be up for going to pole pressure after! actually, i’m personally planning to reserve spots for classes at pole pressure too- it’d be so much fun if a bunch of us (or all of us) went together! I’m super excited now! So what do the rest of you think about those hours on the 19th?? yay sissy for finding a space!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif

    i too reply to the comments on most of my vids. i agree with amcut that we don’t leave comments to get replies or anything, and i see absolutely nothing wrong with people not replying either. i sometimes wont reply to comments for a certain vid myself.. but i do want people to know that any feedback is appreciated, so usually i reply, just in case like pole-twista said.
    and to answer e-vamp’s question, i always see if someone has posted on my profile page, no matter how many comments i have..lol call me obsessed with this site if you want, but i just always check my profile!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

    October 9, 2009 at 3:17 am in reply to: Left side invert pain

    This used to happen to me too. And just like you, it didn’t start hurting me til after i had been inverting for at least a month or so.. and i also noticed it was more intense with the chopper. I remember Veena telling me that it was because i was using mostly my lats to invert, rather than my arm muscles & abs. So maybe you could try focusing on engaging those muscles more. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

    Another thing that really helped me with this, was that i started warming up my back really really well : lift your arms straight up over your shoulders (keeping knees slightly bent & pelvis tilted front) and then pull them straight down behind your ears- as if you’re trying to pull down elastic bands attached to the ceiling (for resistance). https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif

    Also make sure to stretch your back. I found that the one where you’re sitting down, legs straight ahead, & cross one leg over the other & then twist torso to the other side while pushing elbow against the crossed leg really pinpoints that spot of the back. Hope this helps, and hope you feel better! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/alien.gif

    My sweet Gina,
    I feel honored & blessed to have had the chance to get to know you while you were here. You have taught me so many things without even knowing it.. Because that’s the type of person you were- spreading goodness & love was in your nature, so you weren’t even aware of it. You didn’t even have to try, and you didn’t expect anything in return. You were so genuine, original, funny, and just full of love for everyone. And everyone here who knew you adored you. For me, you were such an important part of studioveena, one of the members who i believe helped to set the beautiful character of this site. So even if you’re not physically here anymore, your memory, your love, & your contributions will be here with us FOREVER.

    You & I celebrated our one-year anniversary as members on SV together, and i will continue to celebrate every single anniversary that’s to come WITH YOU. ( https://www.studioveena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=1620 )

    To ease my pain of missing you, i think of something that a wise person once told me: "in the end, it does not matter how many years you live; what is important is how many lives you touch".. and i know that you must have touched the lives of virtually all the people in your life in the sweetest way. You were an angel while you were here, and you continue to be an angel now, the sweetest angel there is. I love you forever sweet Caramel.

    October 2, 2009 at 1:39 pm in reply to: Friends of CARAMEL_DLITE ??? please read

    oh my god.. i seriously can’t believe it/ i remember her saying she hadn’t poled in a very long time because of her stomach pain, and that she couldn’t get a clear diagnosis on what it was. i’m so shocked and sad right now..
    I don’t think it’s a mistake, she’s also disappeared from my facebook friends.
    She was such a beautiful person. i’m so sad, i know she was suffering & in alot of pain, i just hope she is peaceful now. We’ll miss her sooo much, she was such a unique, genuine person. ok i’m gonna stop now .. i have to much too say & i’m just too shocked to express it right now. can we start something like a tribute thread for her?

    I’m flying to buffalo NY friday dec 18th for my sister wedding on the 19th. I probably stay in buffalo straight through xmas. That’s where my whole family is. I’m a Baltimore transplant! I’ll miss u guys!! Is Veena coming too? I didn’t see the original post about having a DC pole jam. What thread is it in?

    Hey angel- there’s no original post about the date on this.. the whole thing started when i decided to go visit my family in maryland for christmas, and so i planned to meet up with Jungle Cat at his house for a pole jam, the 2 of us. About a few weeks later, i met Sissy (on here) so planned to meet with her too. Then others started saying that they’d come too, & before you know it, it turned into a big pole jam! And since i knew i was coming around the 15th, we agreed to meet the weekend after i was to get there- around the 18th. All this just kinda happened during casual talk in chat, so there’s no thread on it- i really didn’t expect that so many people would be interested, otherwise i would’ve looked into it more!
    I"ll be there for at least a month, and i KNOW it won’t be the same if veena & some others won’t be there, but we can still arrange for those of us who live in the area to meet up during that time.. i personally would LOVE to meet you https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif .
    The whole thing isn’t even definite yet. But i really do hope that it works out in the time that i am there, because i have NEVER met another person who pole dances, let alone get to be with a whole bunch of them together.. and this may actually be my one and only opportunity to ever experience something like this before i have to return to my country!

    Hey guys- i booked my ticket today for the 15th! angel that really sucks if you can’t make it.. i don’t think we’re 100% sure what’s going on yet with the studio or with the dates though. JC said Jessalyn is checking for availability for the weekend of the 18th.. but there are some back up studios too.

    This is the date we originally said, but if this date doesn’t work for some people, maybe we could do it right after the holidays? We’d also have to ask Veena though, since it’s also supposed to be a christmas pole party.
