No, if that was aimed at me. The pic that is in the thread was in response to Shannabella asking what move her profile pic was.

Even making lace ones out of ribbon and elestic is really easy (if you have a sewing machine).
-
She probably means a fitness certificate, not necessarily a pole certificate. In oreder to teach in some areas you have to have a certified competancy of body physiology and also first aid/CPR training.

I know there has been discussion of this pole in the past. OH….someone was just thinking about buying one. I think it may have been Zoeyxxxv…..
Here is the pic and comments about the pole: https://www.studioveena.com/photos/view_photo/50ae327f-d214-458e-a97b-22960ac37250
Basically what it comes down to: is your safety worth only $150?

Congratulations!!!!
Even if you consider it "small" it really is not. And there is nothing like the feeling of nailing something for the first time.
-
I do not own a studio but have several friends that do and from comversations we have had the resounding answer is YES.

I think you are thinking of Tite Grip CapFeb.
-
I did not know they changed the formula….
Do you know what "level" you ordered? I do know that there are 4 different levels (not sure if there alwasy were). I also know that this stuff seriously dries out over time so there is a good possibility that the old stuff you had started out this "greasy" but then dried out over the last 2 years.

You should be able to look across your ceiling and tell where there are seams. Those seams are where there should be joists. ALSO, get a small thin and long nail (at least 1.2-2") to use as a trial nail to see if you hit a joist before drilling.
You can also knock on the ceiling with a hammer (lightly) and tell by the tone of the thud if you are at a hollow or solid spot.
Lastly, please be careful with a peek a boo pole. They are not designed to be used for serious pole work.

A "real" bow and arrow (marksman/archer) from what I am told is supposed to be this grip. If you have Veena's lessons it is also here: https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4d46d077-22f0-4c57-87e0-2ff40ac37250
I am going to have to try this grip as I have always only done it with iguana mount arms.
But in answer to my first question, from what I have gathered so far is that it is just a variation of the butterfly.
-
No, that is not me. It was the first image that popped up when I googled bow and arrow pole move.

I can do that too!!!

Rdg, I know for a fact I have rubbed many the wrong way because of the way that I phrase my sentences but I am not going to change how I speak just because I am typing. If you have ever met me, read any of my other posts, seen me in chat you would understand this is the way that I talk.
When you posted about inverting you said you were hurting your calf. I specifically asked you if you were controlling your inverts or if you were using your leg to pull you to the pole, then I linked threads that *I myself* think are very informative.
When people are on a forum for a long time you see the same questions pop up over and over again; this is the nature of any forum. What ends up happening is that people JUST DON'T RESPOND because they get tired of typing the same thing over and over. Which then makes the poster of the question turned off because they get no response. The OP already stated that she was sure that the question had been asked bunch of times. If you look at my opening statement open mindedly instead of on the attack you may interpret it completely differently.

There are a bunch of versions of Lovesong by The Cure. The original is awesome but I love love love the version by Snake River Conspiracy. I am also a huge fan of Marilyn Manson's version of Tainted Love. They are both very grindable songs!
-
I am not going to fo into full detail, but with a little research online you can make your own aerial hammock with rigging for about $60.
-
As always, videos help.
I always started people on the wall. They require a ton of core strength so maybe even working on controlled yoga plows will help you.
-
What specifically are you wanting to do with pole dance and what is your background? Most certifying bodies expect that you alredy have some sort of pole background so that you do not have to learn the moves on top of being certified.
Ones that stick out in my mind are:
Empowerment Through Exotic Dance in Chicago
Angel Discoveries in Baltimore
XPole XPert (various locations)
I know there are a few online programs but I am not sure how great the instruction is. The three I mention above probably get the higest ratings out of any of the programs around.
On top of a pole certification many suggest also getting a group fitness certification.
-
I will point you in the same direction that I point many others:
I am not sure if you have the lessons here but Veena has a ton of conditioning videos.
Please be careful as inverts are usually the first thing people really start to injure themselves with. Work on reverse handstands to inverted crucifix so that you know once you get up there you are not going to come crashing down.

Your photo looks more like a bow and arrow than it does a butterfly.

BV is a common issue with the Mirena but if you know the signs you can easily treat it at the start and not have to get a prescription. Unfortunately most people are familiar with yeast infections but not with their counterpart.

There is a layer of nubbed silicone between the dome and the ceiling to help with "gription".
-
Finding balance points when folded in half are very difficult for me; my "fold point" gives me 42" of leg and 26" of upper body.
-
I think nymphdancer has one. Quite honestly I think the entire system is ridiculously expensive, especially when compared to something like the Omni Gym: http://www.yogaswings.com/2010/10/29/omniswingbasic/ or even a basic yoga hammock. I would really like to know how this is worth $300.

I have found that the instructions on the help site of Apple are at least a year old and still reference capabilities that itunes no longer has (it still lists Ping as an option). I am not sure that you can do this any more in itunes.
I cannot check this from work as I cannot access itunes, but can you see if Amy's link works?

I think people have started using spotify instead.
