I don't know of too many legitimate studios that teach you first to grind on a pole, bodywaves, yes, grinding, hmmm, not so much.
I will also add, and this might be a surprise, I'm tired of the word empowerment being connected to pole (I used it too). However, now I say….Be fit, Be sexy, Be Confident, forget the E word it's time for the B word! LOL That was sooo cheesy! But anyway, using the term "empowerment", still sounds like we're making excuses for enjoying pole dance or that somehow it will make women themselves more widely accepted!! Which is silly because we rule the world. lol Using the E word is as if we are trying to change peoples opinion of pole. In reality you can't change OTHER people, so it should only matter how Pole makes YOU feel! For me it's fit, sexy and confident!! Just BE! I'm much better at expressing myself through dance then words so I hope you get the idea. 🙂

Take a peek at the lesson description and it tells you how often. You can foam roll whenever. Also start by wath in the Getting Started lesson for both the foam roller and stretching section. 🙂 enjoy your roller!

You'll need to do strength work more than once a week if you want to see gains. If you take a look at the descriptions for each lesson you'll see how often I suggest doing them. Also be sure you're going in the order I have the lessons presented, always starting with the Getting Started Lesson. In addition to that, you'll want to work on the conditioning lessons as well.
Have you tried the 30 day take off program? I tell you exactly what to do for 30 days.

Hi Morganriley, What else are you doing besides pole holds and pole ups? Have you added in other strength and conditioning work specifically for shoulders, forearms, and hands?

The girls are right about the poles! Yes, the lessons here are perfect for all levels! You don’t need to have any prior pole experience or super strength and flexi ness 🙂 a lot of new dancers like the 30 day take off program included in the lessons here. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/50e4694e-a85c-4fa0-8e66-61940ac37250

I think many "stripclub" moves have their own difficulty level to them so downplaying those isn't really cool or accepting either. It's not easy to shake your booty!! LOL People have been aware of pole's in strip clubs for a looooong time and I don't think they've suddenly forgotten about those clubs because we have turned the use for a pole into other expressions, as well. So, when a dancer uses a pole in what some might perceive as sexual it doesn't "undo" anything. The strip club was there before and I bet it will still be there in the future.
I didn't start poling, teaching or even this website to "change" the publics opinion on what pole dancing is. I enjoy all styles of pole dance and there is room for all styles. I pole because I LOVE it.
I personally was not impress with the video, it was a little predicable and a honestly kinda boring. The pole dancers did a nice job though! I would love to see more acceptance of ALL styles in the pole world.

If it’s pain take a break. If it’s just sore then this foam roller exercise should help. Make sure you cross your arms to really reach the middle of the back. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4efc8e72-b3a0-49fa-bea0-3d490ac37250
