Pole classes are usually designed to accommodate for different levels of students. Pole isn’t like most other styles of dance, or even fitness, where everyone learns at a similar pace. Pole is determined HUGELY by your previous experience in dance and strength, and your muscle type, your body type etc etc etc etc. SoOoo all instructors know that girls learn at different paces, and any good studio will have instructors trained to compensate for this during every class.
Also, most studios I know of DON’T really do routines to start with. At least not til the end of the ‘block’ (6 weeks or whatever), or until the next ‘level’. They do however show you how to link moves together which can help you in creating your own routines at home.
ok know I’m dredging up old posts again but read this one with interest because I started out as an S factor at home girl learning from the video’s and such, did some classes while traveling with them.
The classes I took here recently are VERY structured, everyone is supposed to do every move (and the first spin was a hard one even for someone who has been dancing for years) and everyone learns the routine. Very robotic. Very opposite of what i had done before. I have some time scheduled over the next few months with several instructors at different studios in different states, and am looking forward to seeing how they do things.

I can’t imagine trying to dance in leg warmers I have enough trouble trying to stick to the pole as it is. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
I’m a heel girl in normal life too, even my flip flops have 3.5 inch wedges and most of the time I feel they aren’t high enough https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif

someone is most likely going to kill me soon for dredging up old threads but I’m having fun reading the old stuff….
home learning new stuff barefoot. In large part because for now I’m on carpet (that should change next month) out and about heels heels heels. I feel best in heels. I work at a job that I pretty much have to wear tennis shoes and hate it. I trip about every 3 ft. Put me in stiletto’s and I can run https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif its the elf feet I swear…

I’m dying to try aerial silks! Unless a studio opens near me (yeah right, we just this year got our first pole studio it will be 5-10 years before silks get here) it will have to wait until we build the new house. I’m sure the contractor is going to love us. A pole in the master bedroom, two in the basement bar and now silks in the foyer…. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I’m getting the same way. My husband is jokingly calling this the summer of pole…. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif

yep my laces are round so I might try that. I get them snagged on my fishnets, and on the laces for the other boot. Not real graceful when all of a sudden you can’t move your legs because your boots are stuck together by the laces. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif or better yet be upside down and have your fishnets get caught in the hooks https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif
I have done both! I have even caught someone else’s laces in my boots! That was rather interesting!
now that one I haven’t done lol. Mostly because I never dance that close to anyone but my man.

these are great!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
you might be a pole dancer if you take your kids to McDonalds so you can use their wifi to watch studio veena lessons because you have dial up at home and they take too long to load. (yes I just did that today on my new acer netbook lol)

lol she took them while trying to explain it to me on another forum and I still can’t do it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif
how does hammering them down effect being able to tighten them? I usually have to tighten my laces a couple of times especially if I’m wearing them for several hours.

I’m not looking. I’m not. Really I’m not going to. Ok well maybe just a quick peek….akkkkkkk no now I have to see that too, and that. Somebody hide my wallet PLEASE!

ok on a more serious note:
my basic wish list would be a really good teacher that can explain things a variety of ways so that all students can "get it" that has a strong focus on safety and good order progression. A safe" studio. Meaning floors and poles in prime working order. Mats for inverts. A restroom and changing area.
I can get by with just a good basic studio if it has the right teacher. With the wrong teacher you could have the Walt Disney World of studio’s and I’m not going to be impressed.
On the subject of mirrors I’m not a fan of them at all.

heck having a restroom in the place is a plus let alone a shower. The studio I’m at you have to go down the hall past offices and use a key https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif
