Be proud!! Using a cup grip is harder AND yes a better option for the body then a twisted grip. It’s also an iron X regardless of grip! Some instructors will get very defensive if they feel you are learning somewhere else, also many instructors are not informed when it comes to what’s safe and appropriate.

Oh I’m so happy to hear it went well!!!

They’ve said NEVER use alcohol on this pole. I also found it made the pole kinda slick, and they say it will dull the finish!! So NO alcohol!! I don’t use anything most of the time, just a dry clean cloth works on this pole. If the pole needs a good cleaning I use steam or windex if I’m in a hurry. Mighty grip doesn’t make my hands too grippy for the pole, but that’s just me.

I’ve only have sweaty hands in the summer in Vegas, but not often. Try mighty grip worked great for me. Also what have you been cleaning your pole with?

I’m so excited to see someone wrote about this, I also find it very interesting! Back when I started lifting weights it became pretty clear that short limbs were able to handle heavier loads, the muscle were not necessarily stronger but the leverage was different…..it use to frustrate me. lol So pole dancers keep this in mind when you get frustrated with things like Iron X and SM stalls!
Thanks so much for sharing this I think it’s really important for everyone to see, because we are not all the same and everyone has their strengths!

I like my ACE cert, been with them for 12 or so years. However with anything it’s up to you to continue learning and studying even outside of what a cert requires of you. 🙂

When my kids were all smaller we played on the pole a lot together. They still like to use it but not as often. However, Henry and I will still have little play sessions together. 🙂 I think it’s important for kids (and adults) to see pole is what you make it!

Happy birthday!! 🎂

That’s good to hear the dvd is better then what I purchased.

For me it works best to wait at LEAST 4 hrs before poling. I prefer to lotion at night and pole in the morning. I cannot pole if I used lotions like bath and body or oily stuff, I use lubriderm.

I know others here have worked with them so maybe they can tell you if it’s worth it.
Kicking higher is dynamic movement so doing static stretches will not improve that greatly. Try doing the Lower body routine https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52e9d171-5724-43b2-8784-47960a9aa0eb this has dynamic movement in it, you can also do this routine as a warm up before stretching. With middle splits remember that not everyone can achieve a perfect middle split, it’s great to work on them but not necessary to have a middle split. Back bending is one that can take time too. Yoga can be great for working on back mobility.
