While there are some great studios out there…its a sad fact that many pole studios are not teaching safe pole dancing!! I always get emails here with complaints and injuries do to their instructors poor understanding of body mechanics. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif Live classes are great, but for those who live too far away from studios, don’t have time, or need a reminder of how to perform a move when their can’t get to the studio for help, the online lessons are a great choice.
I have seen bits and pieces of the top recommended dvds and to be honest I’ll say they are….um… OK. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif One of them I purchased as a new dancer and it was soooo disappointing, they didn’t explain things, it was just video and the narrator saying place hands here now do it. LOL I finally had a chance to watch 3 of Jamillas advanced dvds a few weeks ago, and they are one of the best that I have seen.
The beauty of of my online lessons is that we are continuously adding NEW LESSONS https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif And unlike a dvd….. you can leave questions and comments on each individual lesson for me. In addition to that, I make time to meet anyone who needs one on one help in the chat room for FREE. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif My lessons are always focused on proper form. I have MANY instructors who also take the online lessons so they can teach their students what I have taught them. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Sorry I have been absent from this thread, as some of you know I was busy packing and preparing my family for a big trip. 16 hrs of traveling and we are finally at our destination so, here are my feelings on this……Forgive me if it doesn’t make complete sense, I have been awake since 3am! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif
I want you to all understand WHY I stepped in to replace the canceled workshops….I saw a frustrated studio owner who did what she could to work around USPDF, and I knew there would be disappointed students, so when I see a need I can fill I try my best the help!
Yes this situation up set me!! BUT I do NOT think that publicly bad mouthing USPDF, is the right way to go about showing our disappointment in the situation with the competitors. I saw a FB page was created stating that USPDF is a fake pole organization https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_pale.gif and was very sad to see such a thing https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif I don’t agree with some of things the USPDF has done, and I am disappointed in the way they have handled some situations, but that doesn’t mean we need to get nasty. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif What you all talk about in private is up to you but lets try to be respectful of all our fellow pole peeps.
The best way to fix a problem is to find a better solution, name calling and fighting will get us know where….. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif

I can’t see what brand mine are….I have 2. The long red one I wore for the Feb challenge I bought at Sexworld in Minneapolis https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif The blond wig, I purchased at a wig shop also in Minneapolis. They are both synthetic. Both of them have an adjustable hook thingy (to be technical) lol and it keeps the wig on nice and tight. It looks like the straps on a bra. Also I had to trim the bangs a little bit on both of the wigs, I have a small head. I brush them gently from the bottom to the top, I love them! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif Oh…to help keep the heaver and longer wig on for the Challenge you can see that I wrapped a head band around too, it looks cute and keep the wig from shifting.

don’t worry about no heels!! Don’t stress that foot. I say just pick a the song that you love the most right now and go with it. Turn on the radio for a few hrs and write down any song you love. Pick 3 spins and 4 pole tricks perfect them then go with the flow. Seeing you dance in your vids I know you can do this!!!! Don’t stress just be happy you’ve got such a sexy arch now. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_safesex.gif

Please try not to jump into a pole up or pole hold. The pole hold should be done from standing, no jumping needed for that one, the pole up, you can stand of tippy toes if you want.
The major muscles you use for a pole up are: upper back, and biceps, to put it simple.
The major muscles you use for a push up are: Chest, and triceps…now its a lot more complex than that but if you try to focus on where you should feel the muscle working this can help.
To decrease the intensity of a push up a bit, try doing wall push ups to start with. You want the same position as a floor push up (military/boy) push ups not knees bent! SLOWLY lower your body towards the wall, then press back to the start position nice and strong. Check your form and make sure the hands are not too high, low or close together. YOu should feel this on your chest, front of the shoulder and back of the arm (triceps).
If your using the online lessons, be sure your working on the pole tricep push too, this is basically a wall push up!!
For the pole up, try working on the Pole Hold first… if you haven’t already. Then from the pole hold, SLOWLY release the tension and lower out of the hold by letting the arms extend……DON’T just allow your body to DROP down, lower down with slow, control. You should feel this along your upper back, and front of arms/biceps. Stand back up and repeat. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

The is no way to spot reduce fat https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif It sucks, I know… but the best thing is to keep up with a healthy BALANCED diet, with the right portion sizes. Carbs and fat are not evil we need both. Move, move, move. You can’t "target" belly fat.
Calorie counter http://nutrition.about.com/library/bl_nutrition_guide.htm
Portion sizes http://video.about.com/nutrition/Food-Portion-Control.htm
We all lose weight on different parts of our body first. I weigh as much as a feather and STILL have to hold myself in the right way to conceal a belly I know you saw this vid Glitter but I’ll link it here again. Work WITH the body you have don’t fight it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif
Yes its for postpartum mom but it also applies to everyone.
