Miss Fire, there is nothing wrong with you, there is however something seriously wrong with the way you have been treated. Everyone has a starting point and they are all different. Don't get discouraged, Veenas lessons can help you build the strength and stamina and confidence in yourself that you want…. because we all want to be confident. Don't give up we are here for you.

Chem, my mom used to tell me that no one can hurt you unless you choose to let them… I'm guessing thats on the same level. I let myself by hurt… did then still do… don't want to be "heartless" just want to "use my heart less"!

Ok,I posted a video for the August Challenge! Its on my home page. I don't know how to get it to post here… Im willing to follow directions though! lol I'm entirely pleased with it but the way I feel right now, it's now or never!
-
Hey Veena, I just wanted to say thank you for providing such a great place for us! The lessons are terrific- very clear and easy to follow. Love it all. I'm very happy, thank you again

I take a vitamin combination for joints, I know it helps cuz when I don't take it for awhile I suffer lol It's by Animal, I don't know that much about it really, thats horrible to say I know. I was lucky enough to have a fella that never saw me as sick much less "older" and he did a lot to help me build not only my confidence but my physical health and strength.

PoleSticker, if changing a diet can help a major issue just think what your information can do those who suffer general bouts of depression and anxiety?!! You should certainly share!!! Since I have been working on my fitness levels and staying in remission I have had the desire to eat right and more healthy… here's the thing… with the tons of info out there who and what do you believe?
-
MPoledancer, absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!! You have a way with words and I'm glad to be apart of something that so many feel so strongly about! Thank you for your share, that was great.

Porshka, you don't have to loose a hole day, we all have bad moments, if this one isn't working then the next minute might be better!!! Never give up

Tigger, hang in there girl. I've felt similar during my illness I can tell you all kinds of happy crap but anyone can do that…. what I can say is thanks for still being here!!

I played on a cheapy pole for about a year off and on just cuz I wanted to be sexy like other girls… lol I know….. I'm 43 no splits, not real flexible, I thought I was hella fit from lifting weights. I bought the Xpole and started to get serious watching the videos on the site (no classes). I started practicing the moves I saw other girls and realized I was not so fit after all!! Actually just started Veena's classes and everything I thought I knew… well it's falling into place now. Thanks Veena
-
Steffie, thats amazing!!! Stick it out girl we're all here for you. I can't say I know anything about your situation but I know skinny sucks for me… pushing 106 and proud here!!!

I have had major medical problems including 17 surgeries and implants to cover a pain signal as well as a morphine pump that has been removed for 5 years. Dealt with major depression and was in a wheel chair for over 1 year as well as had no use of right arm for more than 10. Poling is healing to me in the worst of times. It reminds me I'm alive inside and out. I can move and live be what makes me happy. Poling is something I struggle to succeed at but know that I can and will reach my goals. They told me I would die….. more than 7 years ago…. I'm here, I'm free, I'm poling…that's me!!!! Never let them tell you you can't!!!! You can!!! Always with health and healing and personal success in mind; I love me today!

Def. gonna work on the tushy squeeze! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif I have problems with floor moves cuz my tail bone too. Thank you so much.
-
I dont' know the names to a lot of the moves I'm sorry. I sit on the pole holding with my thighs and lean back, back of head facing pole, still holding with thighs, this is where i'm noticing the tail bone banging the pole.
-
Thank you guys. I noticed I hold the pole really high between my thighs, trying to hold more mid thigh now.
-
I am a bit curious how we know what level we are at? There's so much I don't know but thru the videos have learned some pretty cool tricks. I'm not sure about transitions…. so where am I?
-
Great idea!! Thanks I would never have thought of that.
-
ok I totally made this video and i was kinda happy with it and i would have posted it but my daughter wont make it go on the sd instead of the hard drive of my video camera….. im really sad… how do i make the change
-
Glad I could help, keep us posted!! Talk with you soon
-
aww thanks. It feels good to be a part of your excitement. I know with me when I decided I wanted it, I wanted it right now!!! Then it was out of stock https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I could have chosen a 40 at that point but i wanted the 45 cuz I've heard it's most commonly used in competions. I'm glad I waited I'm extremely happy with my choice.
-
Im proud to say I got the pics posted. not real good ones but i hope you get the idea. my hand almost goes completely around the pole, just a small gap remaining. I can take more if you'd like and hopefully do a better job. lol
-
Going to try to load the photos in the site here. If that doesn't work for me I'll let you know.
-
I can take pics of the pieces that i did not need for my ceiling hieght as well as the pole in place. showing you the adjuster area will also be very simple. here's my problem…. not very tech savvy so can I load the pics to the site or do you want them in your email??
-
The hand holds are more comfortable and my confidence level sky rocketted after the first use. Spins and leg grips are much more secure. But my pole is still really new and im sure there will be adjustments to go thru. Grip/slip figuring me and the pole out, that kind of thing. Now, you can scratch my car but NOT MY POLE!!! LOL
-
I just got my 45 chrome last week. I did have a cheapy 50 powder coat. The new pole is so amazing! Can't begin to say enough good things about the new pole. Things are so much easier for me! Even my boyfriend was impressed with the quality and design of the new pole. If you can impress that guy, you've done something! lol
