For me brass or PC.

I can use any finish in humid conditions, however if I sweat, brass has been best. I have every finish 🙂 I don’t sweat often but there are times I do and brass has been best!
I say any finish or diameter pole is workable so don’t stress too much about it 🙂 My favs are 40mm and Brass or Powder coated.

Awe poor doggy! Sometimes members do sell poles here so keep an eye out for that!
As far as learning on YT, there is some great info there and a lot of terrible information out there. I suggest taking a peek at my channel, you will get a better understanding of what is beginner appropriate. I have several free lesson there for you. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCup79MtZnWP_SCAHeVlmzdQ You can also find tips on my profile here too 🙂
Good luck with everything, keep us posted!

Sorry for the delayed reply, I was out of the world of internet access for the afternoon! 🙂
The link isn’t working for me either, however, it’s common for people to feel they can’t keep their elbows on the ground. One of my dear friends insisted her arms were too short, even had an instructor tell her they were, BUT, I was able to coach her into the correct form. So, when I hear that elbows are coming up that usually means you are not engaging the shoulders (scapula) correctly. Doing so will open up the space between the ears and shoulders (think more space between) this allows the elbows to stay on the ground and protects the body.
I wouldn’t work on the deadlift until you have the elbow position down, there’s nothing wrong with reaching one leg up at a time, that can be very pretty too.
Once you understand how to hold the then you can focus on reaching the back to the pole as Phoenix mentioned. In order to have an easier time lifting you need to get your hips over or past your head. I do have several lessons that will help you with this if you are interested. Good luck with your performance!

Oh no! That’s no way to treat anyone! As everyone has said, that is not normal behavior in our community, so lease don’t let this studio stop you from enjoying all that pole can offer! I’m happy you found Studioveena, there are a lot of wonderful supportive members here they can help and encourage you!
Keep in mind that inverts take time and STRENGTH and CONDITIONING is what matters not SIZE! Build your strength and you’ll be well on your way to a healthy pole journey! If you have questions please feel free to ask!

Yes, with PC or metal you have to have skin contact. I have wrapped my lyra before and just didn’t like the feel of clothes on grip tape, I think because I’m use to the strong contact I get with skin only. I find the small diameter of the lyra to be more painful on knee pits and elbow pits for sure!!!
I’ve had my lyra for just over a yr now but I’ve only used it maybe 10 times.

We’ve now hit 50 Quick lessons!!!!!!!!! Yay!

You’re not alone in struggling with working the opposite side. If working on tricks right now is too challenging, try focusing on Conditioning and Strength work using both sides. Either do a bit of extra reps on the weak side or only as many reps as the weak side can do. Once things equal out try working on Pole sits and beginner work, as long as you’re working those you’ll stay fairly equal.
