Momma…I have these in pink. They are the ones I added bling to (check out my FB mobile uploads).

Speaking of shows with just pole…does anyone know what ever happened to Jenyne's show that was taped and never aired?

Grounded, yes
Mature, yes
Sexy Momma, yes
Old? I think I got you by a few years! 😛

I think this will also come with age. I have no idea how old you are but typically as one gets older you tend to care less about what others think and do things just for you.
On a side note, I have found that I am a total exhibitionist https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif. When I am at home or in a small setting I just have a more difficult time totally blanking out and dancing. Now, put me in a club with a crap ton of people watching, lights down low, music blaring and I am so totally comfortable. But the thought of performing in a showcase or competition….shudder.

Oh, yeah a good website is a must! I remember one pole studio that opened near me that had all sorts of atrocious misspellings on their site.
Wikipole is a great site for names of moves. Even common names like scorpio and gemini get switched…I prefer inside leg hang and outside leg hang. Much easier.
On a side note, make sure that the floors are cleaned regularly and that you have wipes and alcohol spray bottles available and make sure that part of the class is wiping down the poles at the end. I HATE being barefoot for a class and my feet ending up black after the hour is up.
The very last thing I will mention is just proper business ettiquette. There are so many studios/instructors that bash other studios and do it publicly. We are all in this for the same reason. To me this is extremely unprofessional and downright ugly and I will NOT spend my money at your business. EVERY pole studio/instructor has something different to offer. Anything I have ever said about another studio I will say to the owner's face.
Oh, just thought of another…if you run a groupon or living social deal be well prepared for the amount of people that will buy and want to take a class. I know a studio owner who's head is spinning because she had over 300 "deals" sold. She is handling it well but I think it is also killing her slowly (Love you angel6101).

I know that if I do not do some sort of exercise every day my body acts up. I will be sore and stiff and blah all day long, and the older I get the worse it gets.
-
I might add, there was a thread here a little while back asking basically the same question, but I think it was what do you look for in an instructor. That may help you.

Location and cost are my two top concerns. If you are in a skeezy area of town chances are I am not attending your studio. I also have issues with some places charging you for a whole 6 week session without some sort of intro. There was a place near me that was going to start pole dance and wanted the money up front and her instructor wasn't really all that well versed. Oh, yeah, BE PROFESSIONAL. The voice mail that this girl left me was nearly impossible to understand.
I could really care less about decor. Tall ceilings, decent poles, smooth floor, clean bathroom.
I like the idea of having open pole even though I have a pole at home. Some times it is just more fun to pole with other people.
I would like there to be at least one advanced instructor. And please do not make me have to go through all of your levels before I can take an upper level class. If I can prove to you that I am at the level, let me take the class.
I am not that picky about certifications, but you should at least know the names of the moves you are trying to teach me. This is a serious pet peeve of mine. I understand that there are several names for the same move but if you do not know even one of them then I will not be giving you money.

Can't tell that you are excited at all!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Thanks!!
-
Will you everhave the other 2 available as downloads? I find this much easier (and faster) than ordering a dvd.
-
No, she ordered them for use, not to sell.

A new studio in town just ordered a bunch of them and they are due to arrive Tues or Weds of next week!!!!
