Count me in!

For future plans/events…I suggest Jamilla’s routines dvds. I wanted to learn a simple routine for hubby’s bday on May 5th…learned one in 4 days! Each dvd ranges from beginner to advanced.

1/2 dozen chair spins usually warm mine up. For sweaty hands, I use Tite Grip
-
Cute pieces! However, I would like to see the what the tops & bottoms look like together.
-
individual moves are taught first, then there is a workout.

I am so excited-I was going to start a thread ; ) She’s a large part of my my b-day presents this year, I’m attending 2 workshops with her in Austin, and buying the dvds!

I put on extra long leg warmers tonight to do the splits routine. I love them-they have no feet, and extend from ankles to my butt, and still have a little room for some scrunching (purchased at that place I mentioned earlier). Anyway, hubby came in and told me I looked cute – so I'll definately wear more leg warmers now https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

whew! I’m normal…okay. Thanks!

Ewa…I love the really long ones, too! I love ordering them from Sock Dreams. They do reviews and let you know if they fit tight (which I hate), or if they're roomy eneough not to give you a thigh muffin top.

@hotelchic-I’m an 80’s girl too, but I never do anything when it’s “In”…I wait until 20 years later (or 30, in this case)!
@tiggertail, excellent point- to keep u from climbing, like on an “off pole” day! -

I need to learn the moves, so I started playing the dvd, watched the instructional chapters (only made it through the first 6-8), then did each move for 60 sec each…sounds too easy right…? NO! These are some challenging moves-in a good way! I totally see them working our core, booty, abs, hip flexors, and legs! Don't forget to wear some shorts/pants with wording on them to enhance the view ; )
-
@fiyastarter. what’s going to be on the next dvd-or at least the subject: more bootyclap ( I can’t imagine what else one can do with their butt), floorwork, etc…?
Btw, I’m going to be working these moves into my freedances ; ) -
I wore my bodybugg to my level 2 class (1 hr clas) and it showed about 250 calories burned per hour. At times it showed up to 4 calories per minute, which is about what I’d burn alternating walking & running. Straight out sprinting was 6 calories per min, so poling is a great calorie burner!
-
Just got mine today-I love the upbeat and fun attitude! I had to try a few of the moves–I am surprised to say that they work…’cause I consider myself pretty close to bootyless! The moves are shown and explained well, then followed by written tips for each move. I love my free gift-it’s hot!
-
@ Rosemay, thanks for the comparison of Veena to Be Spun – I have been considering purchasing them, but now I'm thinking I'll pass.

At my age, I would be pissed off and probably make a fool out of myself if someone tried to physically push me deeper into a stretch! I would think it would seriously open the instructor and studio up to …well, a MESS ! I would not stand for this!
-
Sair, thx for posting the JB vid – had never seen that one! Dang, that was hot! My 32F's would never fit in that outfit, but I would LOVE to have a booty like that! Oh bootyclap dvd, plz hurry up!
-
I think Veena's lessons are a MUST! She explains everything so thoroughly…for me, she is my main teacher. Sometimes I just don't "get" something and I search other sources…looking for the "a-ha" word or phrase that makes me "get" a move, but Veena is the master ; ).
I have two of Felix's dvd's and I just ordered two more (impatiently waiting for them and bootyclap). I LOVE Felix's style–she is like no other! I have been using her basic dvd to really polish some moves and stylize them. The way she uses that outside leg (mostly) for momentum…once you "get " that, every spin will be so much more beautiful and elegant. The way she steps into every spin/pose mentally prepares you to make every spin/pose your best.
I was surprised how much was on Felix's floorwork dvd, because – Hello!- she's always flying up and down the pole, multi-tricking (is that a word?…I'm thinking if not, it should be!) And it did have many tips for choreography, performing, and body placement/image polishing, but if you want PURE floorwork, I would consider holding out for Alethea's floorwork dvd that's supposed to be out in May/June of this year.

Aerial Amy will be in SA July 21 at Soft Senuous Moves-info will be on the website shortly. They’re still making final arrangements I think.
-
Another! I started poling after my birthday last year…I’ll be 43 in June. We should all be proud of ourselves!
-
I hope it’s for beginners! A suggested playlist would be great too!
