Oh, I hate when life gets in the way of pole!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I hope everyone feels better soon! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

Yeah Amy that was one of the changes.
I am in the process of removing family pics from FB today. I am done using it for anything other than business. I'll be posting more photos here so the members can get to know me better if they want. I really only have pole dancers as friends on fb anyway. I know there are people who want to leave fb but feel they will lose contact with others or miss out on things by not using it. To me that just seems like fb has control over you and not you over it…..kinda scary!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif
This pasted week I have spend my time here rather than fb and I am in a better mood and I have gotten to know people better on SV then I ever did on FB. That was somthing I never expected!

Just an up date: I hope to start posting hooping lessons by end of November. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_harry.gif

A video of you trying would be helpful for us if you have one. If your taking the lessons here is the link https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4d418b5f-164c-47a1-8758-18020ac37250 the POC's are: front of the Armpit, side of torso and low back.
I find most people don't realize you have to have the pole far in towards the middle of the low back. The farther around you can bring the hips and waist in front of the pole, the easier the Teddy is to holdl Try aiming to reach the pole with your butt crack!!

Hey! Glad you stopped by to say hello https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif I'm excited to discover a male dancer who prefers the artistic side of pole rather than sport! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif

RoseMay, I do have different stretches posted as individual lessons that are not included in the routines. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
LopsiJuile, is right about how I created my routines, they are quick yet effective. I know most people don't have time to spend stretching for hours. I also don't feel that you should be sore after a stretch…if you are you have either not warmed up enough or pushed too hard. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cop.gif You do not need a foam roller to do the lessons or routine, I give options for those who do not have a roller. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif The individual lessons are focused on proper technique like RoseMay mentioned…I feel this is VERY important. If your trying to stretch by only looking at how someone else is holding the pose, you may not be getting all of the benefit of the stretch, with out detailed instruction. My routines are not as in depth (as the individuals) because you should have already worked on these lessons before starting the routines (as recommends at the beginning of each routine)
Also the routine is only a guideline…you can hold moves longer or do the whole thing 2 times if you like. Change the order or swap out other stretches that are listed in the individuals. I highly suggest you play around with frequency, how long your hold, order in which stretches are performed.
All individual lessons are placed in a row according to the muscle groups stretched, so you can simply hit the next button if you wanted to spend more time on a stretching, then the routines offer.
If possible, it's always best to use all resources you have available to you.
LopsiJulie…it was nice to see your thoughtshttps://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

opp when I say wearing "it" I meant both the bottoms and top are Mika 🙂
-
I have some! I love the top so much, I'm just under 5' 8" there is a short clip of me wearing it in this video. Its at 25 secs https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/4e8076f8-4790-4cc1-9f59-63b80ac37250

If you love static spins I would stick with Chrome. I use a TG and it can really rip up your hands if you do too many static spins with warm hands. Also, I know some (not all) people with sweaty hands have trouble with slipping on the TG finish. I love love my TG pole, but I don't sweat much and live in a colder climate. TG poles can be difficult for beginners to use because they are sooo grippy you have to be right on as far as body placement, it doesn't allow you to maneuver around to find the right spot like chrome.

Thank YOU guy's for your support…. and your willingness to help others. I know it makes them feel welcome here. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

No problem, if you any questions please feel free to email me. The tennis ball works wonders for me!

Try doing the negative… So start from a pole climb, the feet are not touching the foor then try lowering down from a pole hold position, making sure te shoulder are engaged. So instead of pulling up your lowering down… The key is to do it with control.

Welcome back! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

You all have some great routines! I'll share one of mine with you…I change mine often depending on how much time I have. This is a more advanced routine for someone who has been dancing for a while and for someone who has the TIME. Don't we all wish we had more time!
Monday – Free weights, (full body) Flexibility at night
Tuesday – Dance in the morning (like floor transitions fluidity few pole tricks) and hooping, Heavy Flexibility training at night.
Wednesday – Pole work (new moves and dancing through whole songs)
Thursday – Dance and hooping in the morning, Heavy Flexibility training at night
Friday Free weights (full body) Flexibility at night
Saturday REST
Sunday Dance, hoop, pole. OR Flexibility training at night. I pick one of the 4.
This is NOT a suggested routine for new dancers!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cop.gif I'll do this for about 2-4 weeks and then back off to pole dancing 3 times a week or less with no free weights, and hooping, handstands and more balance work on the non pole days. Variety is great https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Yep, sometimes less is best Coatcheckgirl, so even one session a week can help 🙂

MissKitty, its not really within my scope of practice to tell you exactly what to do. But I have pulled my Semitendinosus and this is what I did. Heat and more heat….then….Lot and lots of foam rolling and tennis ball rolling. The tennis ball hurts like you wouldn't believe but it was very helpful. I only did gentle stretching, in between rolling on the ball, and only to the point where it didn't hurt. This went on for about a week, Then once I started to notice the hamstring wasn't hurting in my daily life I began working on flexibility and strength training again. For a long time I had to warm it and roll it really really well before I did anything. Pulls/strains all take time to heal, I still have trouble with my foot and that was over 7 months ago! But it is getting better slowly……
