Unfortunately there are many studios that are not insured. This is something that you would have to ask them about. I am very surprised that they would not have you fill out any sort of forms when renting the space.
I know there are studio owners and people who travel and teach workshops here!

It all depends on the person who is teaching. I want to say most expect you to cover accomodations and a set amount of money they will earn. If you do not sell enough workshops you will be held responsible for making up the difference. Some have a minimum number of people per workshop and a max person to pole ratio. I am not sure how insurances are worked out, either. I know many carry their own teaching insurance but what if one of your poles came down while someone was on it? This is obviously not the instructors fault and I do not believe their insurance would cover such an event.
I am sure it can be done, however I am not sure if it would be financially feasible.

BTW…these are the Elite finalists. Other divisions have not come out yet.

Never.

It has not happened to me but I have read of it happening to a few people here on SV. Generally it is an issue of either too tight, not under a joist or plaster ceilings.

I would suggest using the "contact us" link at the bottom of every page. This is the quickest way to get in touch with Webby.

Dancing at a bar is so totally different than even for a showcase. Generally the music is so loud and the lights are so low that it is easy to get lost in the music. I have also found that the alt lifestyle is so much more open to performance art that they could care less about pointed toes or perfect form. These are the people who are used to burlesque performers and drag queens.

There is also a huge energy and competition difference between the studio and home. When you are in a group setting there is always more energy to get something, where at home it just does not seem to matter as much. This is why being home taught is so difficult….it is so easy to just give up on yourself.

Is that front knee hook to back knee hook? You have to be able to get at least 1.5 full revolutions out of a standard front hook before evern trying. IIRC the front hook is only a millisecond so you have to be able to get into position rapidly. Quite honestly I have neevr seen this move done gracefully on a static pole. There is always this awkward flailing of the legs when trying to unhook, get them cleared, get your body repositioned and then rehookoed before hitting the ground.

Just read on facebook that Felix is out and going to be out for some time due to a rotator cuff injury that she needs to have operated on:
I wish that I was! I am injured – I have to have some surgery so will not be there ;(
rotator cuff work related injury but still… invasive surgery and long recovery

If the X Joints are tightened correctly and checked regularly you should not have a problem with them. How many of us loosen and retighten them regularly? How many of us even check our poles regularly?
I have set up and torn down numerouis X Stages and never had an issue with the joints (when I set them up). I did have issues when other people set them up though.
Read the instructions. Check them regularly.

I would never try this alone or without a crash mat. It is a really scary move and very easy to fall out of.

Here is a really good thread regarding the pole aria: https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/5061817b-903c-4762-941d-1f240ac37250
I know Cat Gennaro has been teaching workshops. I would imagine that many of the things you can do with a flygym/omni swing/aerial hammock can be done with the aria.
