Most of the pro dancers are tiny and most starred off with a 50mm pole. It just takes time to build up the strength. Your hands do not need to fit around the pole, mine don’t. You’ll get stronger! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif If your looking for some strength exercises for your hands, wrists, and forearms, I have specific lessons on those area, in addition to the full body strength work too. You can find them under the strength training section of the lessons https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif .

Its normal to be very sore at first. Always warm up well and stretch after you done. Also make sure that your allowing for recovery time in between poling sessions. Every other day is best, not everyday. On your off days you can stretch (after a warm up) but if you knew to exercise in general you want to give your body the rest in needs so you will not suffer from injury or just get too sore that you cannot even move. haha https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
I still get bruising and pole burn now and then and callouses are a permanent part of my hands. LOL
Everyone will lose weight at different rates though, it depends on how in active you were before you started and how long you dance, you body type…my guess is you will start to notice it in the fit of your clothing more than anything. Don’t look at the evil scale cuz you will gain muscle too. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

AdministratorApril 13, 2010 at 11:09 pm in reply to: I did a SILLY STUPID thing and now I need advice!Oh no https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif I hope your feeling a bit better now…once its no longer really painful you can try massaging the hamstring by using a tennis ball. Massage can help make scar tissue more pliable, if you did tear something you will have to be aware of scar tissue and be careful not to re-injure the same area. Feel better soon https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

to purchase lessons from paypal you either need a credit card or you must have the money in your paypal account. We have had troubles when using bank accounts and no longer use that method.

Hello! If your looking to save a little bit on the cost of a pole you could always go with a permeant one. Our kids are about the same ages!! Pole dancing mommy’s rock https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif

I do have a good set of full body stretches at the end of the cool down. So check those out if your taking the lessons. You may have noticed I recently add a stretching section. I have a few in there right now. I’ll be adding many, many more, for the whole body. You can stretch everyday…ALWAYS WARM UP FIRST don’t over stretch and breath.
This is old and may help a little for now.

If I’m understanding correctly…I have had a very similar if not the same issue for years…..
It usually last a few days but I went a few weeks once with that feeling of needing to pop/locked hip. It was not fun. This is what seems to help me.
I HAVE to warm up well before I do any exercise…..if I get too cold, say for instance in a cold swimming pool and I jump in and start swimming while cold, I will have that tight/locked hip start to flare up. Happens every time! So HEAT is very helpful. Also to free up my hip I do small hip rolls, really focusing on pressing the hips forward….gently. It can be painful when its locked but it does work. Another preventive measure that has been helpful for me is to use a tennis ball. After a work out or if I’m feeling stiff at night, I will place the tennis ball under my bum. Switching between above the "sits" bone and then below. Applying as much pressure as I feel I need. Then I lay prone/face down and place the ball under my hip. OMG it really works out the kinks and is a wonderful way to get a bit of a massage without needing someone else to help you. Strengthening the hips has been helpful too, just be sure to WARM UP FIRST AND STRETCH AFTER.
I’ll be posting a lesson for this tennis ball trick too in the future
So this is what works for me…
Warm up
Gentle stretching
hip rolls
Strengthen Both hip flexors and extensors
Heat
Tennis ball massagehttps://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I just find it silly that others knew how to post pics on here but I never realized it. I thought you had to use photo bucket or something. -
I will make a new section tomorrow https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

I am not sure what color I like the best now. The bright red/fuchsia was my fave before but now the black? I am talking about your hair, or course! Both colors really make your eyes POP.
Awww thank you!!! To be fair though, I had some fun with effects on that pic, made my eyes lighter. But the black does bring out my blue eye. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

What exactly would you want tho…..Just a New section added for example: POLE MOVES… you want a whole BEGINNERS section? Or are you looking to just post a Topic? I think a Newbies section would be a great idea, if that’s what were talking about. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_albino.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_albino.gif
