    Yes they both spin I wouldn’t say the grip is better, but I like how easy the small diameter makes single hand moves. You’ll have to contact xpole for price.

    So happy you’re enjoying the site!! Keep in mind the 30 day is a program not a challenge to attempt to complete. It’s simply a guide line the program will help you build strength and a good foundation for more advanced moves. You’ll also find a lot of general tips for pole and health. 💜

    Shoogstandley, The idea behind the routines isn’t to actually get into the splits each session, but work on a group of stretches and include foam roller work that could help lead up to achieving the splits. You can do any of the routines without being able to do any kind of split. If you have any issues with a muscle group make sure to take extra time to warm them fully before you do flexibility work or pole. I suggest working not the back mobility routine as well to balance out everything.

    I’m just throwing this out there….there are no particular moves that should come easily to anyone. Even doing a pole walk while maintaining neutral alignment can be challenging so never feel you should be able to do something. I’m not saying you won’t something FEEL like “this should be easy” but keep in mind that nothing related to pole SHOULD be easy. I have to remind myself of this from time to time. Also not every move is right for everyone, you’re still a pole dancer even if you never invert. πŸ™‚

    Yep I have splits routines here! Also keep in mind that more isn’t always better, the body needs time to rest even when stretching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hD9tzV9HJEE

    I have the 40mm Chrome and Brass they will be available here in the US again, you’ll just have to wait until more stock comes in. The brass does have more flex, however it’s not been a problem yet, and I really like the finish, far better for me then chrome.

    Welcome to the site!! Everyone had great advice. I’l repeat this because it’s something I tell everyone, do not compare your progress with someone else’s, you have your own journey and it will unfold as it’s meant to. Something else to keep in mind, not every move is right for everyone’s body, we all have our strengths. Some dancers may never invert while others will progress very quickly, neither one is better then the other.

    I think the main question was if they were partners BEFORE one of them became an instructor should they be allowed to continue or not?

    Have you guys done the flexibility test I have you do in the lesson to see if you’re ready? It could very well be a matter of flexibility. If it’s not lack of flexy, then often it’s a matter of timing.
