You can buy an X stage from us https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif The free shipping does not apply to the X stage only X poles. If you would like to order one just send us an email.
Now the x pole doesn’t have a vaulted ceiling adapter. Your ceiling needs to have a flat surface at the top, big enough for the dome to fit. Out of the box the X pole fits ceilings up to 9ft, you can get extensions that lengthen the pole up to 14 or 15 ft (I believe). I have a 12ft X pole..love it! Now the X stage is about 10ft total so its great for anyone with vaulted ceiling or with out door space. I have tried and X stage and really liked it. I hope to get one soon. One more thing, all of the X poles have spin mode, even the X stage!!
Hope this was helpful https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif -

Awww I’m sorry you feel that way. We all get stuck sometimes. Maybe you could make a vid for us and we could see how your trying to get into the move. Lots of people struggle with the CAR, its not as easy as it looks! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Well, judging from the amazing group of ladies they picked last time, I’m no where near ready for that competition! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif

I would defiantly say something…I think keeping quiet would cause suspicion. You don’t want people thinking your being abused. Don’t call it pole dance because unfortunately most think Pole = sex job. I would go with aerial or vertical bar work out.
Be excited about it when you tell them, let them know how its sooooo hard, but the best work out EVER and so fun. Depending on the person, I will call my work pole dance, aerial tricks, or vertical bar sometimes I just say I’m a dancer!! Think of what might happen if you lied then a parent found out, it would look like you think your doing something wrong. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif
If anyone thinks its trashy send them to the site….I don’t think it looks sexual or pornographic. They can even see examples of the lessons and how it can be just a work out! Remember they can’t watch videos unless they are a member. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif and most vids on here are not of the sexual nature very few…really only the amateur night challenges. Most other moms I have told about it get really excited and say "I have heard of that before" followed by "you can do it in your HOME??" You totally have to spin the exercise aspect of it!
Just try to avoid the work POLE a few people will hold on to that and keep thinking pole=sex….booo https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif

Make sure the instructor teaches you proper technique. One thing that should be mentioned to any newbie is ….shoulder back and down. Have fun!!!!
-
I believe you sent me an email…yes PLEASE BE CAREFUL!! If find it really irritating that these big companies and celebrates endorse and sell such dangerous crap! Those poles are toys. That pole has been know to fall down on you, wreck your ceiling and cut you. Have fun but be safe. Just don’t feel bad your not the first or last to think you were getting a deal. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif
Are you able to return the pole? I have free shipping on X poles I don’t think the cost is much more than FGF.

Ok the ones I saw them make on TV didn’t require much sewing. The fabric they use was the same fabric you would see an kimono or clothing of that nature, but really anything you like and isn’t too thick would be ok. I like shimmer and sparkles! If your gonna pole dance in it I would go with plastic boning, I have a corset with steel and it is REALLY hard to dance OR breath in. My plastic boning corsets are easier to pole in. If you buy the thicker plastic boning you should be fine the thin stuff gets really bendy. Don’t forget to make sure you can breath so you don’t pass out while dancing https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif I would be careful about placement if you want to use a zipper. A zipper could scratch your pole, I would think a zipper at the back is best. I would go with hook and eyes (which are a pain) or better yet strings/ties, then it would be really adjustable. You could make your own ties for it or buy some. You could even use ribbon or something. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
If anyone else has some good thoughts let us know!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Welcome!! Nice to have you with us. Yep its normal to have achyness when your new to pole. Make sure your taking a day off between pole days. Always warm up and leave the stretching for after your pole work out. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Ok I just watched your vid…..You have your inverting under control so that’s good! Sooo it hurts on the opposite side that you invert on?? right? Also when you say hurt do you mean sharp pain or dull or stiff and sore? Its hard to tell from the vid but, it looks like you MIGHT be lifting up into the move with your back sightly rounded forward and the shoulders are up…which would engaging your rhomboids heavily. So by not pulling your shoulder back and down first you can get that pain. Soooo try pressing the shoulders down and back first, then you can’t round your back and over stress your rhomboids. Always back and down hold it and them move into the invert. I hope that helps…..let me know if it doesn’t.
Take a break from inverts for a few days, then try out my advice, I love your dancing and want to see you feeling better https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Good Hamstring flexibility is needed for this move and like fleur said grab high up with that top arm or you’ll risk falling back towards the pole and smacking your head!

Ok sooo I looked and can’t seem to find that show! All I remember is it was on after the show knitty gritty so I think that was HGTV not DIY but…it was 2 years ago so the show probably isn’t on anymore booo. I will try and rack my brain to remember how they did the pattern, if I can remember I’ll post it for you all. THINK THINK THINK! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

Great site!! Now I wish I had a spot for my sewing machine https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I might have to make room for it some how!! I did see a DIY episode where this girl makes her own corsets. If I can find it I’ll let you know….from what I remember it wasn’t too tough. It was fit you your own body making it perfect.
