YES joist are necessary!!!!!!!!! You could wreck your ceiling, You need a joist for any pole, even those you don’t remove! One girl used a magnet to find the stud/joist. I have tapped with the little rod tools you get with the pole, when I had popcorn ceilings. There is more info on setting up your pole and finding joist under THINKS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU INSTALL UP YOUR POLE.

i’m using a lilmynx but moving to a higher place with a higher ceiling… thinking about getting an xpole but don’t like that its top mount.. the kendra pole is essentially an static only 45mm xpole with a bottom mount..

has anyone even seen or tried one?I have been informed that yes it is an X pole….BUT its only I tiny bit cheaper than what we sell the pole for and you don’t get the spin option so……I would go with the X pole not the Kendra, I think having spin mode is worth it. We have the best prices around!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

That was really cute.
Glitterhips, I had no clue how teeny you are! So cute.
Veena, WHERE did you get those shorts/undies?! I need them in every colour. They are really hot.Do you mean the hot pink shorts? I bought them online, I can’t remember the place so I’ll look back at my bookmarks I think it might be on there. I’ll send you an email if I find it. I think I only payed 12 dollars for them….I think.

Ohhh you should make a blog for it!! Then you could track your progress and we can watch. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cyclops_ani.gif

Stud finders wont work on plaster. I find them unreliable so I use the knock method. Just knock along the ceiling and when to tone changes from hollow to solid…there ya go https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif You found yourself a stud, now if only it were take simple to find a man stud. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Veena, thanks for these video newsletters…they are great for getting to know SV members!
Glitterhips, I’m jealous that you flew out to meet Veena! I’m here in Chicago too, don’t forget about me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif LOL I would love to learn a couple moves from you https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif . You have a sweet personality and would like to pole jam with you one day.
Hey Please let me know if your ever in the San Fran area, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif it was very nice of Glitters family to let her ditch them for a bit while they were on vacation here. I told Glitter I would come steel her away if they wouldn’t let her come. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif -
I don’t have Ellie boots but I have some Ellie heels and I LOVE them they are super comfy, they have a great soft cushion, But all the boots I own don’t have any cushion, soooo I don’t know if Ellie boots would. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

Loved the booty popping on the ceiling!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Well…for me it was keeping my booty up so… you want to keep that Caterpillar position and release from there, in that chair position, like an up sidedown L, so there is an bit of an arch in your low back….but only for the straight edge split not the straight edge. I wish I could do this move I would post it for you….Its a no no for me right now. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif
Here this vid has a good view at. 2:50 I go right into a straight edge, not the split….but its a great example of how squashed up your body should be in the caterpillar before your release your legs from the pole.
-
Yippy! Work on the split first, Because your legs are in a V it requires less balance than legs straight up. If you do try a true straight edge….be sure your not arching your back, you don’t want to tip backwards. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif Oh and the farther away from the pole your hips are the harder, so its fine to keep them close until you get stronger and better balanced.
-
Great job, yes spin mode takes a lot of control….I’m still working on it myself. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif
-
Yes, sissy lower down is right, that way your farther away from your pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif
Yeah, blackeyed the RG should NOT be taught as a beginner move. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
-
Oh I had a good time meeting you Glitter! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
-
Yippy have fun! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Arching your back can help, but making sure your not starting off too close to the pole can help a lot. You want a hips width distance or even a tad more, if your holding up real high on the pole you’ll smash into the pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif
-
If its just sore and not painful I’m sure you’ll be fine. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif If your still worried about it the next day talk to your DR. This spin is an advanced spin because It requires a lot of strength and good form. I would recommend working on pole climbs and other moves to help strengthen your shoulders for this spin, many ladies have injured themselves working on this spin too soon. I have placed this move under the intermediate category in my online lessons. Just because its a spin instructors teach it as a beginner move and student think they should be able to do it right away. Not true. I haven’t see you try the spin so I can’t tell you if your ready for it, but please be careful, shoulders are tricky things treat them well. Always hold them back and down when poling, never hang from the arm. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Hope you feel better tomorrow https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

I would just get the set! I don’t have it but have seen one of her vids and I think it would be worth getting the whole set! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Welcome https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif It really is addictive!

Learning on spin first, can make it harder to learn on static later….can but not necessarily. You can developed habits, using spin mode because it requires you to turn into the pole a lot (but not always) and then climb or get into a position. Soooo the problem that some run into is when trying static spins they have a habit of turning into the pole first and that can cause problems in proper technique for some static spins. One is not harder or better than the other but the technique is different. I think static is a better work out, if burning calories is what a person wants to do, because you need to use your body for momentum on static. Spin is more about holding the pose properly….which is also a challenge! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
