I’m new to the world of Pole fitness and look forward to meeting other Polers how enjoy every new trick and accomplishment. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gifHi jimella- the girls have posted links to the studio’s website – if you look through the thread you’ll find all the info you need. The cost to attend the jam is about 35$.. just let us know asap if you’re certain that you’re coming, as the spots are limited!

Don’t know if it’s a stereotype or not, but i have 2 cats (i’ve always had cats, even before pole).. and they love playing with me while i pole! I think that maybe we see alot of cats in videos because cats are playful & curious, so those who have them are likely to include them in videos since they’re always around & about when we pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif

ooooooh just watched it- nice! yeah that looks like she got into the twisted grip position after she kinda "swung" her body around so that her arm twisted.. looks hard. can’t try it though since i don’t spinny. Roxy i’m sure you can do it, you’re superwoman!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif

Do you go into crucifix before getting into the butterfly position (ie removing your hands from pole after invert)? I find it easier if i go straight into butterfly, without ever removing my top arm- you get better grip that way. Either way, i’d say keep practicing the extended butterfly & eventually that will build up the grip & strength you need. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
I couldn’t do split grip aysha till i felt like i could hold extended butterfly forever.. then i was able to start working on ever so slightly taking my leg of the pole for just a second at a time, and now i can do it no prob! So other than maybe doing some strength training, i’d say keep at it with the extended butterfly till you get very comfortable with it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -
A bum slide starts in the handstand position, stomach facing the pole, and legs split.. the legs are then lowered while tilting the pelvis forward (and pole on one side like fleur said) so that your feet end up standing on the floor. There’s a thread about this on here somewhere with tips for this move. It requires hamstring flexibility & i can’t seem to do it very controlled, with my legs completely straight yet..sad case. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif
*edit*: just saw that fleur posted a better description of this move, so disregard this, lol -
See, i told you someone more experienced would show up with some wisdom on this! Thanks Fleur! LOL.. i was actually doing it right in the middle i think. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cyclops_ani.gif From the way you describe it, seems like you wouldn’t actually do it ON one butt-cheek ( https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif ) , rather the pole would be between the two, but just pressing against the one cheek instead of in the middle?? is that right? (maybe that is what i did, but just cant tell from looking at my pic). https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
-
LOL sissy! I’ll try doing this move again tonight or tomorrow & let you two know cos i really don’t remember! Although i’m sure someone else who knows better will step in with some wise words by then! I just remember holdin on real tight with my hands & leaning way back to get the pole.. umm.. you know, right in there. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif haha. But don’t know if that’s the proper way to do it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I know this move as the tail sit. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I’ve only done this move a couple times (i’ve forgotten about it!), so i can’t be of much help, but here’s what i remember: first of all, i could only do it with really short shorts (think maybe even wedgie-like, lol). I also didn’t go to one side. since i had to lean way back to do it (more so than the wrist sit), it didn’t affect my lady bits, even though i was right smack in the middle. Hope someone else has better tips for you! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
(ps. i’m doing this move in my 2nd picture in my profile) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

I just felt bad for seeing how offended they all were when all was said and done. It’s no one’s fault really. But pretty funny – I am a filthy dancer – spreading my filth! haha!
Hahahha you’re too funny!!It IS a funny story, but i still think it’s the bar’s fault for assuming that the people wanted "all out sexy".. lol. I wish i could’ve seen their faces, as well as your performance! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

WOW Charley, what an experience!!! The people who hired you to do it obviously had no clue what it was all about!
And ok, i can understand the women not being able to follow through with it, or even feeling a bit uneasy with their husbands watching you (kindof, but still stupid), but WTF, no applause???? How fricking RUDE!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif I mean, you even tried teaching them! It’s just ridiculous. I’m so glad you danced your a$$ off & were sexy as he**!! I’m sure the men at least enjoyed it- they probably were just too scared too show it, knowing what would await them once they got home with their insecure wives! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif
And 50$ ? what’s that about? Ha. What unappreciative people.. i’d be on cloud 9 if i had the chance to get a chair dance lesson from you!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif At least you got an experience out of it though.. a nightmare-ish one, but still an experience! Thanks for sharing the story with us! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -

Here’s what i think works: Go to videos. Click upload & accept agreement. Page that comes up will have a list of your videos (as well as the option to browse for a video you’d want to upload). On that list, check the video you want to delete, & click on the X button. I’ve never done it, but i think that’s how you do it. Let me know if it works or not cos this is the 2nd time i’m posting these instructions- don’t wanna be passing around false info!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

😀 Thats a little scary considering I met you for the first time on Sat! But thanks for the great intro! Looking forward to the Pole Princess comp cos theres a spinny pole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
Hey i dont think that’s scary! LOL! i’d take it as a compliment if someone knew so much about my pole activities https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif – it’s kinda hard not to.. when you live in a small country & are obsessed with pole dancing, you’ll at least know who wins competitions! Congrats on your win & good luck in december!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

This used to happen to me at first, & i actually posted a similar question back then! Basically, your feet will become resistant to bruising & pain with time. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
If you choose to protect them or wear shoes all the time, then you’ll probably never build up the resistance. i’ve even ripped off skin from my feet in the past & just put band-aids on to protect till they healed. Maybe someone else knows of something for protecting while they’re still sore.. good luck!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
