    I added the redemption code in the promo code box. Now what do I do?

    I think I bought a gift certificate…duh! I knew I did something wrong. I see the redemption code now. Thanks for the quick response!

    Do you have to view the lessons in order and are not allowed to skip around? I am so confused.

    I also want to add that the ankle grips helped me greatly when starting out. Now I have developed enough strength that I dont need them anymore. So, to answer your question, at least in my experience, the ankle grips were very useful.

    I agree with the others who commented. Not being able to grip the pole is because you’re new. I have skinny legs and found it very hard to grip.

    Isn’t it fair to say, though, that someone can have no hangups about nudity but doesn’t necessarily want to see a stranger’s crotch spread-eagle in front of her face?

    She might be ok with it, but that doesn’t mean that others are obligated to watch.

    @zoilife6233 I get what you’re saying. It’s hard to say without having been there witnessing it myself whether this woman stripped down because she was “celebrating her body” or if she felt like she had to perform in such a revealing way because she has been conditioned to think that is what men like.

    You have every right to your mixed feelings, but don’t let it affect the way you think of yourself doing the same moves.

    As far as what is sexy, I also go for the less-is-more route, but to each his or her own.

    Thanks. I don’t mind spending the money for something that fits me well, but I’ve had fit problems even with more expensive shorts.

    To me, it looks like your grip is fine. If you are new, what is probably happening is that you haven’t developed enough strength in your arms and abs to support yourself on the pole, so you’re relying on the strength of your grip. Maybe I’m wrong, but this is what I THINK might be happening.

    I’d rather pole in a tight space than to pole in no space. I wish I could practice at home but I just can’t because my ceiling is too low. I was thinking of buying an x-stage and do it outside, but I’d only be able to use it half the year since half the year it’s way too cold. Anyone have a pole up in the garage? Again, I’d only be able to do that half the year because it would be too cold, but I’ve thought about it.

    I didn’t say they talked at length about pole dancing, but that pole dancing was mentioned.

    I agree with you about the terminology and how it should be separate, at least the “stripper” part–not that theres anything wrong with it if that’s what someone chooses to do.

    I agree with both of you!
