Maybe you can email Veena and ask her if she can extend the free shipping promo for you until you have the cash? It’s worth a shot! It does look legit but you can be 100% sure Veena’s poles are the real deal so it’s worth asking…she’s a doll. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

I’m not a mom yet but I think everyone knows here that I definitely have body issues…and Jacq I can totally relate because any time I tell someone I’d like to lose weight they say "You don’t need to lose any a lot of people are bigger than you are!" but people don’t seem to understand it’s something I want to do for myself and it seems like youre in a similar position with your insecurities.
Veena I hope this doesnt offend you but your body is totally perfect to me so to hear you say you have parts of your body you worry about actually makes me feel better because sometimes even the people you think are perfect have things they worry about too…so I guess we’re all human after all.
Poling has definitely helped me though…and I get a lot of messages on Youtube from girls saying they saw my videos and it made them start pole dancing because they had only seen videos of really thin girls and didn’t think they could do it. At first I was kind of hurt because I felt like they were calling me fat but if my curves can inspire other curvy girls to do something that’s so great then I should be happy!
So mom or not I think everyone on this site is beautiful and amazing and wonderful! I would have probably given up poling so many times if it wasn’t for everyone here cheering me on despite how much I hate my thighs https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif

Hahaha oh Jungle you crack me up!
Welcome SueLynn! I also have self confidence issues and poling has definitely helped with that. You should post some videos here…the site is made so only members can see the videos and no one would ever say anything negative about your dancing…everyone here is so amazing and supportive. I love new members posting videos because I’m always so inspired by everyone’s dance styles so I hope you feel comfortable here https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif Welcome again, stop by friday chat sometime!

Thanks everyone! Yeah in my vid I am definitely flinging my legs up way more than I would like to but hopefully that will get better with time. I was so excited I did it and then I went to wrap my legs around the pole to get inverted and smacked my head on the pole and fell https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif I got this on video but I will not be posting it hahaha. It’s a weird position to get inverted from though, but I think the falling helped me get the hang of it! Thanks for being so supportive everyone!!!!

Ooooh this is a tough one. I mean I feel like an obvious name for my pole would be Cupcake…but I dunno…
Ahhh I got it. I think I will name it Priscilla. I used to waitress at a diner where we had to have a stage name and Priscilla was my waitress name but sadly I quit there quite some time ago…but now Priscilla can live on! (And she’s shinier than I was too!)

This is a really good idea…I need to make a concrete paper list instead of the unorganized one I keep in my head! My practices are just all over the place so maybe if I have some structure I can get some things accomplished. I also think I need a list of things to do at the gym and I need to find some way to reward myself (not with food!) for going to the gym 6x a week like I’m supposed to be doing. But I will definitely try this I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it…thanks Jacq! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

LOL Lily I can totally imagine you picking up strippers numbers! That is too funny.
My ex loooooooved going to strip clubs and I went with him twice…I did have fun but as everyone knows here I am pretty self conscious about my body so I was definitely concerned he’d find some of the girls hotter than I am, or to have better bodies, etc. I also definitely wasnt comfortable with seeing naked women sit on his lap or flirt with him…but to my surprise the girls were paying more attention to me! We got a lap dance and it was mostly me getting a lap dance while he watched…I don’t think he was expecting me to get all the attention and I think it actually pissed him off a little https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif
But, I will agree with everyone here strip clubs can be fun. If you’re cool with the dancers theyre very friendly.
I dont mean to offend any dancers here but at the clubs I’ve gone to I’ve only seen two or three dancers who can use the pole and they really only did some basic inverts and spins…nothing death defying like our Neke does https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I think your husband saying he wants to go so you can get "pole tips" might just be a way to get you to be okay with going…but if my man was going to a club I’d prefer he went with me than without me!
Thats my .2..like Veena said, discuss your limits with him before hand so he’s not surprised when you don’t want a girl to spread her legs in front of you so can see her up to her kidneys. I think it’s worth a go just to say you went, who knows you might end up really enjoying it!
-
awesome! it seems like i get the most moves when i’m not overthinking them..but you seem like you are progressing very well!
-
Hooooly crap. I can’t even do a death lay but that’s another thing on my list of "Maybe if I get good enough one day…"
LittleMissLola, I did try the nose breaker and I was able to do it but I slide down super slowly. I guess I need to just get more comfortable with the move so I can spread my legs a little farther and slide down quicker. THanks for the tips everyone! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

heyyy i live in chicago! where are you coming in from?

Ive actually been meaning to make my own post about this but I’m definitely really interested in working in a club…because I really don’t care who sees my girly bits and I could definitely use the money. I’m pretty self conscious about my weight though so I’m not sure if I’d make any money…I’ve gone to a club around here a few times and seen very different girls and all of them seemed to be getting positive reactions so who knows. I wouldn’t be okay with stripping down to nothing because I hate the part of my tummy above my lady business but most of the clubs here are topless only (but the girls still wear thongs that resemble dental floss) because in the county I live in it’s illegal to serve alcohol in a fully nude club and I think guys prefer to drink and see half naked ladies than not drink and see naked ones. But I’m going to make my own post and hopefully some people can help me out!

yeah Kelly is a superhuman pole goddess, I have decided…how do you get into it the way you two do it?
-
I think either one, I’m just interested in learning how to drop down the pole like that but be able to control it so I don’t break my neck…but I would be more likely to learn it the way Kelly Kayne does it because her back is facing outward so if I fell I’d land on my back instead of doing what your move is called :-p
-
Gee if having someone watch you try moves you cant do means you’ll get them it would be worth lugging my pole up the three flights of stairs to my boyfriend’s apartment…hehe!
Trena I am soooo proud of you girl! It seems like a lot of moves are clicking for you lately…not to mention you have got to be way strong so tell Derm to watch out so he doesn’t get an ass kicking from you! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif SM is still on my list of things that seem insurmountable but maybe one day!

Thats why I looove this site you can totally vent about ANYTHING and if there isn’t someone that’s gone through it already which there usually is, there’s always people willing to lend you their ear. As far as decorating I have found tons of dirt cheap lights and things at the dollar store and I love the scrap bin at the fabric store…I got a couple yards of hot pink pleather there for $2 once, so I used some of it to decorate my room…sadly the leftover went to my aunt so she could make a raincoat for her (boy) dog. Poor thing! We think he might be gay anyway though, he only smells boy dogs https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif Also you can go shopping in your closet and maybe look for some old clothes you could cut up and turn into sexy pole wear..you’d be amazed at what you can do with some scissors and safety pins if you don’t/can’t use a sewing machine!
My boyfriend got laid off from his job not too long ago too so I totally know how much it sucks…keep your chin up!

I spend so much time on here I might need to ask Veena if she needs a Midwestern correspondant so I can get paid to sit here all day like I already do…although I don’t know crap about computers. Maybe I can just bake cupcakes and post pictures? I think it’s a good idea!
Anyway I went to a strip club ages ago and thought the few girls that could do some pole tricks were cool and I wanted to learn…so I somehow stumbled upon Veena’s video to Gimme More on youtube ages ago and that actually inspired me to start pole dancing because I didnt know it was something you could learn at home. I remember I messaged her and she was very friendly and answered me right away. I also remember very distinctly thinking "Wow she has to be my age and she’s so good, she must have started learning this ages ago" needless to say I was SHOCKED when I found out she was 30 and had three kids! I was totally in awe and every time she posted a new video I was so excited. I had been following her on youtube for a while and then when I found out about this site I came over here right away. Little did I know one day we’d actually get to know each other and chat quite often..the first time I talked to her it was like talking to Madonna, I was soooo nervous.
I have met so many amazing people here and I love that we go above and beyond pole stuff, like talk to each other about health issues and boyfriend troubles, and have pole dance as a common thread to string us all together. I wish I had enough frequent flyer miles to pole around the world and visit all of you! I wonder if we all put our poles end to end, how far they would go? Although Veena is cheating with her 12-footer! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

no one wants to see a video of him treating his girlfriend well because his girlfriend is his right hand with some eyes and lipstick painted on. ok ew i almost threw up my dinner but its probably true! i told veena her and i are going to bake some special cupcakes with cement frosting and throw them at his head. then i bet even his right hand would dump him..i dont think even hands like guys with caved in heads!
-
OK i love that you named your lists that’s a great idea..and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Bloc Party, The Faint, and a few other bands I saw…it looks like I found someone who knows a lot of the obscure bands I do! Yay!
-
I got the superman spin on the first try which is weird because I’m normally pretty hesitant when trying new moves but I just dove right into it…although I barely ever do it because if youve seen my vids I dont have a ton of space in my pole room. However I cant do the superman to save my life…Ive never seriously worked on it though, I’m really tiny and have short arms and a short torso so when I start to reach back behind me the pole is all up in my no no spot and it hurts!!!!!!!! It hurts so much just trying to reach behind myself I havent even been able to get into the full position. Anyone have any torso lengthening exercises? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
-
Hahaha Trena you crack me up! "dont go on her pole" omg i want to visit you i bet i would be peeing in my pants constantly!
-
Thats funny because I cant the b and a from a cross knee release, only from cross ankle! And I cant the superman either..I am super tiny so every time I try to reach back the pole goes right up in my no no business and it HURTS! must keep trying though!
-
Welcome fellow midwesterner! I live in chicago. I am also on the "thicker" side so I always get excited when curvy girls get into pole dancing. I also had no professional dance or fitness background…I belly dance for fun but stopped taking lessons ages ago so I started with a clean slate. You will build up strength SUPER fast…I am the strongest I’ve ever been and barely had to lift any weights to get this way. Come by chat on Fridays so we can all meet you!
-
Welcome..you will spend way too much time on this site like I do hehehe!
