Are you asking about the SV pole? There are 2 sizes that adjust 8-9 and 9-10 ft. You can check out the videos on the shopping page https://www.studioveena.com/shopping

Oh yeah, I forgot about SS, it’s great for sweat too.

Windex is fine it’s how I clean my SV pole, from what I’ve been told it’s the amount of alcohol in the cleaner that matters, so don’t use super strong straight up rubbing alcohol it can dull the finish of the SV pole. However I find I hardly ever need to just anything on my SV pole, I just use a clean towel and wipe everything off, I do not use much for grip aids on this pole, I just don’t need to. Steaming it is alway an option for deep cleaning too if you don’t want to use windex. 🙂

It’s a great place to hopefully find someone! Wishing you luck 🙂

Hi M, if you have question about reps, sets and frequency you’ll find suggestions for this listed in the description of each lesson and even more tips and info in the getting started lessons for each section 🙂
-
Hi, have you tried the lessons on the site here? In addition to being able to do them whenever where ever, you can contact me directly from any lesson and I’ll get back to you ASAP with help.

Chrome is NOT good if you sweat, go with Brass or Powder coated, these won’t be perfect, but much better then chrome. You’re well within the weight range for the SV pole and any other quality pole. I would contact Lil Mynx if you have questions about using reinforcement.

Thank you both! Yes, I think public schooling at home is more what we are looking for. We do like our schools in NV and the kids all do very well here. It’s more about options for traveling families then trying to move away from traditional school. Chances are they would only do Connections for a year then go back to school, but who knows, I never thought I’d be living in Vegas. lol

We can have the SV pole cut shorter at no cost. 🙂
-
Thanks everyone! So far we are leaning towards Connections Academy.
Tiger, would connections work if you travel a LOT or is it best to be in one location for the school year? We love our schools in Vegas, the kids like it too, we are looking into schooling at “home” due to possible travels.

Yay congratulations!!! There are several Discussion topics here on this matter. Here is one older one I found that will give you some good info. https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/338
My advice, stay within your limits, this isn’t the time to push or learn new things, don’t get too hot and make sure you drink enough water and listen to your body. If you are tired its ok to sleep. 🙂

Hi Shadow! Everyone has great points, I agree that is sounds like you’re grieving, and that’s difficult but normal. We grieve many things when it comes to big life changes and not just death, and you’ve had 2 changes. Talking to a counselor could be very helpful!!
One thing I don’t like to see happen with ANY pole dancer is comparing themselves with others, or assuming that the length of time they have been dancing should equal that they can do XYandZ on the pole. My take on pole dance is it’s often not about progressing into trick after trick with the goal of advancing to handsprings and Ayashas! It’s more fulfilling when it’s about the journey, the feeling you have when you allow your body to just move and be in the moment, even if you think it feels weird or looks bad, it’s fulfilling for the soul. Tricks are fun and can be a great motivator but if it’s the only focus you’ll find can take the joy out of pole.
I’m so truly sorry for your losses, within a few years my sister and dad passed away and it does change you, but it can also help you remember that life it short and we should not waste our time. If there is something you want go for it, do it for those who loved you. They’d want you to be happy. The ex didn’t know what he had, don’t let him stop you from enjoying life! xoxoxoxo

Awesome thank you both for the input and links 🙂
-
If you have the lessons here there are lessons and info on working up to backbends. Feel free to use those to help her. Here a back mobility routine. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/53000190-d198-4e3e-8e30-6b2c0a9aa0eb
I know others will have suggestions too.

I use my powder coated pole for advanced work all the time, it’s my preferred pole for working on new stuff. The only issue you may have is doing drops. I do advanced static spins on my pole all the time. 😉
-
Can I ask what the goal is for the survey?
-
The question is why do you use grip aid? For sweaty hands or just because the pole feels slick?
-
Yep, what she said! Those were either cheap or not properly installed !
-
Yeah, they left a comment here before saying to no longer use the wd40 lol so….It maybe time for them to update their info!
-
lil mynx says not to use wd40 but liquid graphite instead. I would just try taking it down and putting it back up, that stops mine often.
-
It would be fun if those who are doing the second option (re do, dance) would share their first video along with the second in the discussion here! If you have access to a link that is 🙂
-
I’ll reply here too. I can see from your vid that you are not using a “grip”, but only holding on with the hand only, this will not allow you to hold the upper body in place so you can climb. Here is an example of a Forearm grip, you can see how the pole is running along the inner forearm up into the elbow pit, this hold will allow for more stability when doing the caterpillar or the climb. You can also use just an elbow grip if you find that more comfortable.

The studioveena pole, it’s easy to set up, fast to set up and take down and the powder coated finish is grippy so you avoid a lot if the slipping issues with other finishes. It’s static and spin and the price is good.
