    When I had my pole out in my garage I went to Lowes and bought a piece of smooth panelling and placed that on the floor under my pole.

     

    If your garage is not air conditioned you will have lots of issues with poling pretty much most of the year.

    When you are in the tucked position your arms should be bent and tight to your body.  Pretty much all you have to do it look up and straighten your arms.  If you arms are NOT bent and tight to your body, rework your tucks.  You should be in a tight little ball when you bring those knees up.

    Since you know you are going to be moving around a lot and you never know your housing, I would strongly suggest looking into an X pole.  That being said, most poles have a rating up to 250 lbs (some a little over, some a little under).

    If you have been having extreme temperature swings like we have then it can come down that easy.  The pole needs to be checked at least weekly, if not before every use.

     

    Does whoever was spinning on it know to take out the pin or did they lift the cover and loosen it to make it spin?  Is the pole easy to put back in place ot is there wayyyy too much room?

    I don't think ANY pole does well in a dry, cold room.

     

    Veena has suggested using a steamer on your pole to warm it up.  You can pick up a cheap garment steamer for about $20.

    Water is not going to be a problem.  You would have more influence from the ambient humidity than anything you cleaned your pole with.

    February 17, 2012 at 1:55 pm in reply to: Your pole warm up

    Sparrow…I always started my classes with a grounding of sorts.  It was basically just sitting , taking deep breaths and clearing the mind of the days garbage and setting their minds to being at class.  From there I moved into neck rolls.  The first few minutes of class were always done eyes closed.

     

    S Factor's warm up is very much a moving meditation of sorts.

    February 17, 2012 at 1:01 pm in reply to: Pink Responsibly

    Aas I stated in the other thread that you started, please let us know why you are so bitter towards Pink Pole Power instead of just getting on here and bashing it.

     

    That is like me getting on this forum and bashing Webbie and Veena because I think they got in the business just for attention.  I have no facts that I have stated, just that I think they are pathetic people for even starting this website and I think you all should remove yourselves instantly.

     

    This is exactly what you just did.  No reasoning.  No facts.  No nothing but you getting on and posting a rant.  Give us specific reasons:

    I don't like Pink Pole Power because Sean used to date a friend of mine and he hurt her and I just cannot support anything he has his hands in. (not saying this is the case…this is me posting an example of reasons behind your dislike of PPP)

    And when you come on the forum and post the exact same thing in 2 different places it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth for your agenda.

    What specifically is a scam and what specifically has Pink done to get you so upset?  Maybe if you would address these issues we could see your point of view.  I have not seen anything horrible put out by them so when I read a post like this the first thing I think of is the back story.

     

    Yes, you do have your freedom to speak your mind but without telling us why you are upset then it is hard for us to understand and empathize.

    February 16, 2012 at 8:13 pm in reply to: Your pole warm up

    Beginner warm up was getting parts of the body moving, then some sort of core work, then "the walk" then some wall work.  As the girls progressed so did my warm ups.  During class I always threw pole holds or knee ups at them along with body rolls.

     

    I personally am not a fan of wasting half of class warming up.  I am paying for pole, not to take a toning class.  I take other classes for that.

    If you are thinking about using these for pole, don't.  Any of the stretch ones tear the minute that you clmb.  There have been a few threads on here regarding this.

    February 15, 2012 at 5:51 pm in reply to: Is glitter hairspray pole-safe?

    I assume that you are wanting to use hairspray so that you can wash it off the skirt later?

     

    I do know that many performers have used glitter on their bodies and makes a spray with glitter in it.  The bearings of a pole are sealed so I do not see that being an issue.  The only possible issues I could fathom is if you ended up leaving a lot of glitter on the pole and it would interfere with your grip.  But that would be a LOT of glitter. 

     

    I just was a pole cleaner a few weeks back and I made a fairy skirt that had glitter tulle.  There was a LOT of glitter every where I went but it did not mess up the performers.

    If pole performers had to stay away from glitter I think we all would be doomed……

     

    That being said, glitter is the venereal disease of the craft world…you cannot get rid of that stuff….EVER!

    February 13, 2012 at 12:24 pm in reply to: New to pole Dancing- Best Pole to buy??

    EVERYBODY has different difficulties.  Some moves that have been really easy for me are really tough for others and vice versa.  We all start somewhere.  I have been at it over 4 years and there are still a lot of things I cannot do that many girls are doing a year in.  Any move that requires shoulder or hip flexibility I cannot do and I have issues with finding a balance point with things like ayesha because I have long arms, long legs and a short torso.
