    If you’re a new student who’s also new to home practice. Try the 30 take off program or if you’re more advanced try the 30 invert program. 💜

    Hi! If you’re new the how my lessons work (they’re free until the end of March) you will see under each lesson there is a group of other videos. Those are related lessons. Those lessons listed below the main video will show you things you should be working on to achieve the move!

    So just know that the other videos you see below are not random, they’re meant to offer ways to help you achieve the move shown on the main video. 😁

    I’m sorry you’re feeling frustrated. I know many, many women don’t bounce back super fast from c section and it can make the healing process much more frustrating.

    Not sure if it will help, but for me, sometimes the best way to start healing mentally and physically is to embrace the new body or life situation. Your body gave life, that’s incredible. You can invert and do splits that’s AMAZING! Most women would look at you and be in total awe! Letting go of something you perceive as a negative experience can be very difficult but moving past it (at least in my experience) is worth it.

    Focus on the great things you can do, avoid comparing your birth experience or life for that matter, to others. That’s when we really get in a pickle. The longer we compare and hold on to the anger or frustration the less energy we will have to heal and enjoy this very short life 🙂

    I hope you feel better and you are NOT alone! xoxox

    Awesome guys! Keep it up!

    Yes, the panic buying is really stressful to me. We had been out of town and when I go home I needed food! That was not fun.

    Just finished a quick Yoga session. Haven’t had time for anything lately.

    I have one! That’s a good mommy question. It not super easy to lift and unlock. You lift then turn while having to hold it up, holding it up takes some strength of the hand as it automatically wants to push back down before you twist. I’m not sure a toddler could lift and twist with the dexterity needed. It took me a bit to work it out hahahaha

    My kids are all to old to test it on!

    Ashi I hope you stay healthy and can find the time! Strangefox, I think time off can help. Absents makes the heart grow fonder.

    I haven’t had a good workout for over a week now. I was doing so well….oh life how you get in the way of my goals!!

    Brittanyshanah, yes, I’ve heard of that as well. In fact back in the day we would get comments here to sand your pole. Though I’m guessing it was more for stainless steel as that and brass were the main finish when pole first became popular. I would not sand a chrome pole.

    I’m traveling again, but brought some resistance bands withs me….we’ll see if I use them 😂 I bring them with good intentions and rarely do.

    This is a super common issue, recently a member on a different thread mentioned Carpe lotion being helpful for sweaty hands. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=carpe+lotion

    Yesterday’s focus was handspring/cartwheel practice and working on new ways to teach bass monkey.

    February 23, 2020 at 6:21 pm in reply to: Contract for pole fitness

    I can see how frustrating that would be and it sounds like a contract might be the way to go. I’m not super business minded when it comes to contracts but Webmaster might have some ideas.

    If you haven’t already, make sure she is teaching in a way that allows first time pole dancers to have fun and do it in a safe way. Would be worth asking if you can attend a class so you can make sure she is teaching in a way that you want your facility to be represented.

    If you’re not sure what is appropriate for beginners feel free to take a look at the lessons here, they are in order 🙂
