Cheers lovelies, i STILL don’t have it down! I’ve done it once or twice and it’s taken me by suprise both times! I’ve had people watch me at class to see if i’m doing something stilly on my way up there but aparently i’m doing everything i should be so i think it’s a mental thing! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif
I’m getting a camera soon too so i’ll be able to post some vids for more of your awesome advice. I’ve learned so much just from watching you guys and reading the advice given to other people!
This is the best site pole dancing site i’ve been on. Love it! x
Maybe you just need to give it a nice shrill battle cry as you march up to the pole intimidatingly. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif Seriously though, I did a few weeks of nose to knee crunches from cross knee or cross ankle (whichever felt better on any given day lol) and got my aerial invert totally spontaneously one day and haven’t had any problems since. Those inverted situps whip your abs into shape in no time.

I left a comment but I will restate here that you are freakin’ awesome. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Wow!!! That was so beautiful I think that’s the vid I’ll use to tell my parents about my pole dancing!!!

I used to have standard as well as inverse navel, now I only have the inverse. But I haven’t aggravated it poling thus far, even moves that have my belly right on the pole. Then again, it’s a very happy and well established 5 year old piercing, I wouldn’t want to heal a standard navel with poling …eek the bending lol

Just make sure you can get extensions to make it as tall as you need and still be aggressive on.

I learned this using the method Jamila describes in her videos. Start from the ground and try to position yourself into it. Once you’ve mastered it from the ground then climb the pole and try it.
I’ve found that having short shorts on so the side of my butt/thigh can press against the pole to hold in position. Its a bit of a balancing act. If the pole insn’t tacky enough sometimes its hard to hold the position.
Be careful or you’ll end up hurting yourself where the sun don’t shine https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
I have a piercing where the sun don’t shine. I wonder if this move would cause the pole to rub up against that as I slide down. Ouchies!
I used to sport a piercing in my far southern regions…now that I’ve had some lady part area bruising from learning new moves, I’ve been wondering whether poling would have really ticked it off. I think I’m grateful that piercing’s lifespan didn’t overlap with my poling eek lol

omg I’m doing this TODAY! Pardon me while I go sit in the corner with the other kids who can’t split https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Hmm now you’ve got me wondering whether she won’t latch onto it the first time she sees https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I mean, I thought it was addictive and I’m her kid, so maybe it’s genetic right?
I doubt it, she gets motion sick really easily she’d probably barf https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif I remember the first whiff I got of my hair when I quit over a year ago…ohh man tasty https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
Unfortunately I’m back on the bandwagon again https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif I stayed quit for about a year but man college is soooo bad for my smoking habits…all my friends (and I mean all. Literally every single one) smoke. Just got out of a 3 year relationship with a guy who smoked, and the guy I’m seeing now smokes worse https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif When I quit the first time, it was because I realized I was officially a 5 year smoker, because I started at 15. Now I’m realizing I will probably see the 10 year mark roll around and my head will spin when it does. I never thought at 15 that I ever could or would be a smoker of 5-10 years, but then again what the heck did I know at 15? Shows how much foresight I had, that’s kind of what happens! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Oh sissy =( you poor little trooper! That’s not whiny at all. Chronic pain BLOWS I don’t care if it’s in your feet or your whole body! We love you and I hope you feel better soon. You would still dance circles around me in body cast, mama! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I wasn’t exactly expecting it that soon myself https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif God knows how long it will take for it to actually get pretty! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif

Just wanted to add I saw the new forum for move of the month and may I just say https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif
Awesome idea!!!! Can’t wait to see everyone on the same move and really study everyones different styles. I can already tell we’ll all be learning cool new ways to do our standard tricks we never thought about https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif

I commented on that on youtube. Fantastic performance! I think I’ve watched it 5 times https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Thanks ladies!! Isn’t it funny how you walk around with a swagger for DAYS after getting something big?? I feel like such a pimp https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

This used to happen to me too till i realized 2 things:
1) make sure the holes where the screw thingies go are lined up with the little x’s on the base of pole
2) when you use the key to insert the screws, use it so that the LONG side of it is sticking out, & the short side is going inside.. doing it the opposite way wont screw them in all the way.Hope this helps! if you’re already doing this & it’s still moving, i’d call X-pole.. they’re very helpful. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
=( sadly, yeah still moving. Actually the most recent time I tried the one problematic screw finally gave way on tightening and now slips meaning its definitely stripped somewhere in there. It’s just a little give so I’m not worried about it being unsafe to practice on but I don’t like it one bit. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif

I agree with azzwoo 100%. When I was learning this move I had to learn to get the grip in my knee not my thighs. I started out holding my foot and went from there.
As far as thighs hurting, there’s a thread in here somewhere about doing pole sits for increasing amounts of time to toughen up the thighs. I do it and it works!

We’re all pioneering an art form and building some ridiculously sexy muscles doing it. We’re all wonderwomen!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Aw you can do it girlie I know you can! I have problems with my shoulders for the same reason, it just takes time and patience and a lot of talking to yourself like a nutterbutter (back and down back and down back and down) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
It took me what seemed like ages to get my cradle pretty. Now I train myself in that position. With my pole on static, I pull myself up around the pole in cradle position and just hold it as long as I can. I can hold it almost a full minute now, and the longer I can hold it for, the prettier my cradles get. Plus, it’s good training for flagpoles! I’ve been practicing a lot of holding positions that way to get better muscle control and it definitely feels like it’s working. Good luck!

If they can get over my aunt pole dancing I think they can get over it with me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Lol <3 I hadn’t even thought to ice it, shows how clearly I think when something hurts. My head goes blank except for "I want to rip my neck off ! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif "

Yeah, as though there’s some reason to be intimidated by how strong all the women are. Hrmph https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif

I think it wouldn’t hurt to take the whole thing apart again and look (really, really look) at the condition of the threading on the two pieces. Test just that seam while it’s apart by screwing it together and making sure that joint is in ok shape. If there’s something wrong with the threads of one piece, I’d say buy replacement part. If that seam feels fine and looks fine, then I think it’s time to call up the company. You might have to ask for a manager a few times, but such is life.

Eat them nanners! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I was a really active kid and I got muscle cramps all the time. Especially bad in my legs. My mom always gave me bananas instead of tylenol and it seems to actually work as a remedy that way and not just in preventing them.
