    I love instagram too, WAY more than FB, I like that I ONLY see who I choose to follow! However, I agree, hanging out here I feel far more connected to everyone. The interaction is great on SV and yes, just having someone acknowledge you can make your day. Besides working to create the best online pole curriculum, my other goal was to create a kind, and caring, space in this huge world of online hate and rudeness! I have often been a victim of online hate and I know how much it can hurt, I don’t want anyone to feel that way if I can help it! xoxoxo

    I usually delete the Vegas promoters replies. lol

    I have not tried Pole Sleeves. I would love to try the silicon xpole, we’ve been traveling so I’ve not had a chance yet! I’ve heard good things about the silicon x tho! I have seen many complains about the sleeve being difficult to remove.

    Yes, crossing your ankles can help, also keep in mind that just like with Pole Sits and other Plank type moves you can tip one hip locking the legs into place. You’ll find more tips for this in the lessons. 🙂

    I’m behind! The last 2 days I’ve been running around trying to get things out of boxes, with a focus on the kids rooms and kitchen so we can function again!

    I’m grateful for my bath tub and sleep!! Keep up the good work everyone, and I would get into day 9 from cobra too!

    Xpole requires no drilling and is a solid product. lil Mynx requires one screw in the ceiling and is also a great product. I have BOTH poles in my home and love them. Oh, and we have been renters in several homes and I’ve never had an issue with damage, due to a pole. Just be sure you install it correctly and you’re good to go!

    For clothing if you google “side tie shorts” you’ll see all kinds of options. 🙂

    For the cost maybe think about the silicon xpole?

    I have to fit my workouts in before I get too far into the day! So, I usually have oatmeal, with fruit and honey, and also an egg on an english muffin. Sometimes I have green tea as well. I can’t pole on an empty tummy!

    Day 6! I’m thankful for moving trucks! Without these companies our gypsy life would be much more difficult! 😉

    Day 7! Soooo blessed to have amazing kids who helped us move all the boxes out of storage! One or 2 more loads of big items to go and we’re moved!

    Massage is such a great thing and can be super helpful! When dealing with an injury, be sure that anytime you begin a work out you’ve warmed up a lot! in addition to that, it might be helpful to foam roll or use a tennis ball on the muscles around the shoulder. Don’t forget to stretch and strengthen!!! If you don’t see improvement see a DR.

    As you can see you are not alone! I would guess every woman goes through feeling of not being sexy or desirable. It’s not something that will change over night.

    I know I’ve gone through times like Poleisnewtome, where I feel great about my body but do not feel sexual, or sensual, this often happens when life gets busy and I just don’t have time to relax enough to feel sexy. I’ve also gone through times where I feel so dumpy and unattractive, this usually happens when I haven’t taken the time to workout, my mood gets low and I start to pick at every little flaw.

    Over the past few years I’ve learned that sex appeal is not about looks, it’s so often about attitude. The good news about that is… you can change any attitude you have about yourself if you are persistent and surround yourself with positive influences.

    When it comes to dance, I need the feed back from a mirror, I know some people say the mirror is not a good idea because you might become too critical of what you see. For me though, I need the feedback… turning down the lights, putting on some heels and watching myself, I can see what looks nice (to me) and what I didn’t care for. By watching, I can now see what others do! There is a time a place to just let go, feeling the movement and not worrying about what you look like, but there’s also something to be said for accepting what you see as beautiful. I’ve met many pole dancers who dance sexy and look amazing, BUT they will not look at themselves dance in the mirror, because they don’t like to see themselves.

    If you’re looking to get your sexy back, practice, you can do this everyday, because you done have to do all kinds of pole tricks to be sexy!!!! Also, because sensuality is hugely mental, try writing down what makes you feel sexy or what you love about yourself. Make the list as big as you can, maybe try adding to it daily. Then when you wake up read the list, before you dance, read the list. Read it again before bed. Our thoughts create our reality! xoxoxo

    X pole is the best option out there if you’re looking for something that requires no holes! It’s worth paying the extra money for a safe quality pole.

    Thank you for your suggestion! I’m in the process of creating new lessons so it would take me a while to write everything down. Maybe the next time you watch it write it down some place where you can take it with you to the gym? Also if you have a smart phone or an iPad you can watch the lessons as long as the connection is good. 🙂

    msusagi, as a beginner it’s important to build up strength for some of the things shown in the video. Have you taken a look at the lessons here? I have placed everything in order for you this way you will build strength and find your pole progression is safer and faster!

    The basic pole climb I teach is for strength building. Have you checked out the other climb variations in the lessons?

    Day 3! While it’s been challenging to find space to stretch while living in the RV, I’m so thankful I had the opportunity to travel and meet new people! 😍

    November 2, 2014 at 10:08 pm in reply to: The good side and the bad side 🙂

    Here are my thoughts.

    Always try both sides when learning something new, you never know which side will feel more comfortable or be stronger.

    Learn beginner and as many intermediate to advanced things that you are COMFORTABLE with. As long as you do the basics or other off pole strength work, on both sides you’ll be fine. And there’s no reason to push things like extended butterflies, pencils and things that take a good amount of balance, grip security and place you in a head down (towards floor) position.

    Really as long as you to strength work on or off pole on both sides you’ll be ok.
