    I’ve had events pop up on my fb feed and been invited to a hoop jam, but it was a weekend we were busy and it was kinda far from here. There’s a ton of yoga studios but with the kids school schedule I didn’t have time to check anything out yet. Now this July I head home to spend some time with my mom so still doesn’t seem like a great time to start anything. I’d love to take some dance classes.

    Those tees are soooooo cool! I’d make them with you!

    If you find a magic way to meet friends I’d like to know! There are zero pole studios in my area and so far it’s over all been a very lonely place. I’m happy the kids are home now from school!!!

    I’ve seen events but none close to me at all…..

    I’m not great at following the plan myself, at least when it comes to anything that is just for ME! I can follow and finish perfectly if it affects someone that isn’t me. I guess that’s why personal training was a natural fit for me.

    So guys, let me ask you this, what is it about pole that make everyone go crazy to the point where we push ourselves to the point of injury and burnout? For me, I thought it’s just because that is my personality, when I find something new that’s physical in nature, I work very hard to improve. However, I see so many posts and comments of not being good enough or “I can’t learn this or that”, they talk about quitting because they can’t invert and so on. What is it about pole…….

    BTW, I no longer feel the need to be the over achiever when it comes to pole, in fact it’s not been up for 2 weeks now and I’ve been perfectly happy, I’m thinking I’ll put it up soon. Until that point I’m doing yoga, working out, lot’s of balance work and hula hooping.

    For me it often helps to really thing of bring my nose towards my knees (tucking) before opening up. And ditto to the other suggestions too!

    I’m mentioning this because you asked for suggestions….Have you finished the 30 day take off program and 30 day flexibility program yet? It’s very much about preparing the body and mind for pole and teaching the importance of listening to your body. I know you have had the lessons in the past but I’m not sure how far you have gotten in them or how you used them so I thought I may be worth a mention.

    It’s always great when someone other than myself (as it comes across as your mom telling you to wear a coat in the winter) lol mentions that inverts are not the be all and end all of pole, so while I feel for you and never want to see anyone in pain, the fact that you have brought this up is a good thing!

    I think the biggest issue dancers run into is they feel they have to learn every move and be inverting and flying all over the place. The feel the need to “keep up” with what’s new. That’s just not the case, any level can see increased strength, grace, flexibility and enjoyment. We all have our own strengths and it can be nice to focus on those while also working on things that challenge you.

    Often frustration comes when we compare ourself and our progress with others. So maybe take a look back at where you started from and be proud of how far you’ve come.

    Also keep in mind the majority of pole dancers are not elite or pros, it may be what you see on social media but they are not the majority. Pros and elites do pole for a living, it’s their job and so they will progress more than say someone who poles as an amateur. Enjoy pole and the strength and expression it brings to every level. πŸ™‚
