You really need to speak with your doctor on this one!! Pole puts a LOT of pressure on the abs, and you need to make sure your dr understands that when you are asking about resuming exercise. I would NOT begin inverting at 6 weeks. Take it slow. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I’m hearing that the studio had trouble with all removable poles, right? Here are my thoughts. Charley is right…if they are not installed properly ANY POLE CAN FALL DOWN. This includes permanent poles!!!! Scary I know, but, I have personally had a PERMANENT pole fall down, with me at the top! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif I have use my x poles in many places and have never had them fall down, I failed to tight the dome once, and had it come loose, but it was my fault. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif If the studio where the pole fell down happened to have a dance floor or aerobic type floor, the kind that are meant to give and slightly spring back, that could cause a problem if the floor is not taken into account when installing the pole. This goes for the lil mynx too. The same goes for carpeted floors…you need to make sure that you have put weight on the pole while you tighten it, to account for the give in the carpeting. Tugging on a portable pole is only one way to check if it is tight enough. I always hang on it or have someone stand on the base and the re-tighten again. Then do a few test half spins, that way I can use a good amount of momentum without having to have both feet leave the floor. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I still love my X poles the quality is great and so is the customer service.

Hi! Welcome, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif there is about 65 people from Ireland on here. To do a search look up at the top right hand corner, you will see a Google search bar, just type in Ireland and you should see at least one selection where you can do the members search, other things related to Ireland on the site, will pop up too. Once on the members search page, you can type in Ireland again and there you go!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

Yeah, the skin will hurt…but it does get better https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I call the first move the gemini and the second the scorpio….but inside/outside leg hook/hang is a lot more descriptive. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif

The actions of the kids well, its not really shocking, my kids are always finding poles to run around and do trick on…..BUT!! It is weird/DUMB that the parents/adults would choose a place that looks like a strip club https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif For a kids party??? Ummm Parenting "FAIL" https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif

Fantastic, Great to have you here!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif How has the scoliosis affected your pole dancing? Have you been limited or has it actually help you feel better? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Good job on the crucifix and scorpio!! The hand getting in the way is a common problem, so don’t worry its not just you. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif It is more than likely a matter of strength. You need to be sure that your inverting is really solid, you need to have enough control to LIFT your butt/hips higher so you will clear the hand. So be sure your, A. not using a big kick of momentum to invert, and B. giving an extra PULL up, with your upper back and biceps. The stronger you become the easier it will be to clear the hand. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Do you have the pole too tight, if its over tightened ( I have done this before) it will not move as freely as it should. I have had friends say my X pole spins much faster than their PS poles. I would double check to make sure its not overly tight https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

YES! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I totally tried it!! I know I mentioned it before, but I had forgotten about it. I was reminded when making supper, my dish gloves fell out when I opened up the cabinet door and ta da…idea https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_idea.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I can’t stand when forums get all snooty https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif I’m sorry they acted that way! Trust me, I know how it feels to be treated poorly on a forum! I’ll leave it at that https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_silent.gif (not here of course) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif I don’t blame you for being upset at all, its stupid and petty so vent away!
Its funny that you brought up belly dancing, I was just working on some pole work with belly dance mixed in, I literally just finished dance and saw this post! I will mix belly and pole dance hahaha, and I really don’t care who likes it or not! Oh AND I was not dancing to traditional belly dance music, I love to dance to trance. I wish I knew more about belly dance so I could help you out ABC, but I really don’t know anything, I just started doing it again for fun https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif.
I think there may be some belly dancers on the site, so hopefully they will speak up and you can maybe learn from them here!!

Yep, my hands hurt….fingers and palm/thumb area. Only when I’m getting back on the pole, give it a little time, it will get better. Hands have muscle just like the rest of your body. They are getting stronger, just like the rest of you. Soon you can say "I’ll open that jar for you" because you’ll have SUPER GRIP https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_spiderman.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_batman.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif
