    There is not a huge pool of instructors here in Cleveland so this is a non-issue.  I want to say a lot of other studios have just been word of mouth…someone knows someone or knows of a student that would be a good teacher.  I have been contacted a few times asking if I know anyone who would be interested in teaching.  Sorry I could not be of more help.

     

    Now, if I were a studio owner looking for an instructor I would ask the person to teach a basic class to me and a few friends.  Just because someone can dance or perform a move does not mean they can teach it.

    I am going to be biased here but I would STRONGLY suggest Studio 409.  I would LOVE to take classes with Valerie!  They are present here on SV plus Val has the best videos…just seems like a really fun place to take classes.

  • I am super stoked….my friend Debbie was one of the winners last year and now there are 2 finalists from Jasmine Dragons in the competition (pic 1 and 9).  Looks like NE Ohio rocks at street poling!!!

    This is the exact same stuff that they sell at bowling alleys.  You can generally find it in any pro shop for about $3.  It is very similar to itac….VERY similar, however it is a little creamier whereas itac is more like a paste.

    Lu….so many good things are happening for you!  I can't think of a better spokesperson for the benefits of pole.

    I am sorry if I came off horrible to you.  There have been so many that want to be able to do things beyond their abilities and see products like these as their savior.  I have never been one to mince my words and only speak truthfully (if not bluntly).

     

    As I stated earlier if indeed you have an issue with hyperhydrosis then these can help.  You stated that you want them to help with knee holds and sitting type moves.  I don't know how long you have been poling but if you look around the forum these are moves that many have issues with just because they are difficult.  

     

    I am sorry if I offended you.  I really am quite a decent person.

    OK…I am going to be the nasty one here.  These are great if you are sweaty or are trying to protect yourself (say if you are training for a comp or something).  I have issues with people buying these because they think they are going to be their saving grace in learning a move that they probably just do not have the skills to perform yet.  There, I said it.

     

    There are lots of threads here reagrding different grip aids and even these protectors.  I have tried the gloves, not a fan (I have large hands and the sizes just were not right for me).  I do know of people who have issues with extremely sweaty hands that they have been great for.
