    I will add that I have NEVER attended a workshop with only one person per pole and this is not the norm.  So many studios are small and only have a few poles.  If you expect someone to fly into town and only be able to each a few people per workshop how do you think they could afford to do that?  Yes, they are responsible for their own airfare and accomodations (very few studios pay for the latter).

    And part of the reason I do not go to concerts any more….. 

     

    Saw a Cirque show right after my wedding and got tix for my maid of honor.  It was a tent show so all of the seats were rather close but even back then (9 years ago) tix were $50 a pop.  I would love love love to see this show I just cannot justify close to $300 for 2 tickets.

    With the older students since they are used to one per pole this is probably the reasoning for the unhappiness.  I have also had situations where one person was a pole hog and the other got left out.  You HAVE to make sure there is equal pole time.

     

    Also, CalBear, what S studio was set up this way?  I have obnly been to Houston and each studio (I think they had 3) had between 6 and 8 poles.  I know girls that go to other studios and never heard this.

    I am very tempted to see it too Nymph until I saw ticket prices.  OUCH!!!  Cheap seats are $50, then they go to $80, $125 and $175.  Basically if you want to be anywhere near the stage you are looking at $125 or $175……I just cannot justify that!

    Invest in some foot undeez or toekinis or the like.  It does not matter what type of flooring you are on, if you get a little sweaty or dirty then both of the above are difficult.

    September 26, 2011 at 10:26 am in reply to: EZ connect Platinum Stages SSA pole!

    I am not sure if the new SSA is different than the old but I do know someone who "walked" the old style across the floor and I also have had one move on me on a garage floor while doing a reverse grab.  ALSO, the old SSA 45 mm pole was never stable over the original size, even though they sold the extensiona to a lot of people.  There is an e-mail floating around this foum stating just that.  Again, this was the old style SSA.  Not sure if they have made design changes with the new.  BTW, I am about 150 lbs and 5'8", not sure if height and weigh play an issue here.

    With idiots like that it is better just to ignore them.  HOWEVER if they step into my pole space I reserve the right to "accidentally" kick them.

    Miraine…that was already shown prior to this new change.  It was just in with the rest of the stuff, so you saw that so and so commented and then you would get a status update and then maybe a game thingy then so and so are now friends.  All it did was separate that little background "noise" from the actual news feed and put it as a ticker on a side screen.

    If you learn how to work the system then it is really not all that bad.  It just depends really on how you use facebook.  I ahve lists created for close friends, pole buddies, family, and businesses.

    If you do relist might I suggest that you add the words "stripper", "heels" and "platform" to your title.  When pepple go looking for stacks the first thing they are going to type is stripper shoes or stripper heel.  You have missed a ton of opportunity by not including these words in your title.  Look at a lot of other ads to see what all is included.  There is a method to the madness to be able to have lots of visitors to your items.

    Amy just blogged about flexibility yesterday.  There are plenty here over 30 who when they put their mind to it show gains.  It is not something that can only be worked on once a week and expect miracles.

    September 20, 2011 at 7:20 am in reply to: barrier between pole base and floor?

    I used to have my Lil Mynx on a piece of panelling on top of concrete out in my garage.  They even sell a foam pad that they suggest using if you are putting your pole on tile.  I will warn about the foam mats though, if you are thinking about doing a larger section I have caught my toes coming down and they have stuck resulting in jammed toes.  I have even done the same in heels and nearly twisted my ankle (the heel dug in and would not budge when the rest of me was still moving).
