Hi welcome to the site! By inner core I’m guessing you mean the Transverse Abdominis, Multifidus and pelvis. You are correct that these groups are important and they can be a challenge to focus on for those who are strong. Doing exercise for these areas can prevent back pain and injury. In addition to training the inner core you’ll want to condition the smaller muscles and stabilizers of the limbs too! If you’re interested in video explanation of exercises that will focus on these areas, check out the conditioning section in the lessons here. I have lessons that cover all of these areas including the illusive Multifidus! I feel that training the Multifidi is important for protecting the back during back bending.

It’s really impressive to me that you’ve decided to focus on inner core! I think a lot of people skip exercises that use smaller muscle groups because they “feel” the exercises are too “easy” and because they don’t need to grunt and huff and puff through it, it must not be worth doing. 🙂 I can’t stress how important conditioning is for pole.

Whats the party for and are the people attending first time pole dancers? Are you keeping the party sporty or sexy fun?

I’ve been staying away from FB for a few weeks now but went back on to write a short response. I’m so sick of the media….

The lessons here have an incredible amount of info along with many 20 + min routines for everything from stretching to strength! 😊

Merry Chrismas to you!

Hi and welcome!! The lessons here would be a great start, I have everything placed in order for you so there’s no guessing as to what to work on next! They allow you to build strength first helping prevent injury.

My tips would be work on strength building moves first, then move onto spins. Don’t practice everyday as a beginner. Always stretch your forearms and hands after you pole. This video has tips too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSYHrZjzSnU&list=PLyXWQXP3dueofybLatPPuLCbvfSPF2oSF&index=21

Was it the new brass or older mat finish brass? Also were you warmed up, with any pole you’ll find the best grip when you are very warm. The most consistent finish for me is the SV pole. Something else you could try is using Dew point and mighty grip together. It works best on PC and Brass, chrome still gets slick after a bit, but the grip aids together do make the chrome pole more useable! I haven’t gotten out my Stainless steel pole to try it but I bet it would work great on it too!

I love you’re house Saphyre and great splits too!

Jane ette, don’t be too discouraged, splits are not everything. The 6 weeks to splits is simply not possible for many people, flexibility takes time. We all have very different bodies and need to listen to them. Try to focus on the strengths you do have instead. 🙂

Issues with tg*

[Veena]

I really liked tg. However I now have a brass x-pole and love it!! I had issues with during the Vegas summers due to sweat, but brass is better (not perfect) but better when sweaty. This new brass is great! So it’s something to think about.

Hey leyrose, you shouldn’t need to add ankle weights. In fact your could stress your hip flexors by adding extra weight during the routine. The goal with the lower body conditioning is gaining control and also strengthen and lengthen, it’s not to bulk up the leg muscles. 🙂

[Veena]

Hmm, the screws shouldn’t be sticking out at all. Have you tried trouble shooting by contacting x- pole?

[Veena]

Congratulations!!!! You’ll bounce back. 🙂 I would highly recommend doing the 30 day Take off Program here. Its included with the purchase of the lessons and gives you 30 days of training. One of the best things for you would be that each day doesn’t take much time so you can get your workouts in and be done, while still gaining strength! This program focus’s on everything you need to get back into pole again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4KzMIIbZH0
