I’m old so I don’t know what people are calling moves these days lol. However, in my world its a variation of the Aerial pole split https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4cd406bc-c6c4-42e6-a13d-1d370ac37250….just bend the bottom leg 🙂

As long as you follow the rest days for both it would be fine. The flexy program isn’t just about stretching it includes strength work as well so make sure you have enough rest days. Since this isn’t your first time around just listen to your body and you should be fine!

I really suggest buying a mount Strangefox…..I LOVE mine (I’ve got 3 at home and have bought them for places I like to dance at too) lol I use them all the time even though we rent our homes. It’s really not a big deal to fill the holes when you leave and it makes taking down and setting up so fast!

I never got calluses with my SV powder coated pole and yet my grip was great, it was like magic some how! I get really bad ones using my grippy brass and very light ones using chrome or TG. I try and keep lotion on my hands as much as possible after poling of course.

I’m not familiar with who might sell pole clothes in London, but there are tons of people who have pole clothing the sell online!

Not stupid questions! You can share either a photo or video because it’s just a pose I’m looking for…if it were a full combo then video is needed but this time is just a single move. Video’s are the most fun to watch tho! I make a post as an example the day BEFORE, then everyone else posts after, it can be the next day or later.
The biggest thing to remember is ALWAYS use the hashtag #veenaxmasdays this insures you get counted for the prize drawings and to qualify you have to also follow and then tag myself @studioveena, @eco.glitter.fun and @kupmykakez in every post too!

I was gonna ask if you have a hula hoop too!!! My pole is inside and I STILL don’t feel motivated to dance in the colder months. I grab a hoop and start with those, before I know it I’m warm and feeling like dancing. Also if you don’t have one get a space heater, I just can’t dance on a pole if it’s cold…not gonna happen. If the garage just isn’t possible to warm enough try hula hoop or work on chair moves and floor work.

I was probably still making this post when you had that question though 🎅🎅

It really varies depending on where you live, if you do it for a living or if it’s just a fun one time deal. If you are looking to perform for others in the future make sure you’re not undercutting the other performers in your area by booking for super cheap. If it’s just a one time deal for a friend just ask what they were thinking as far as payment goes.

Ouch, how did the x ray turn out?
As far as other training, for now focus on flexibility as you mentioned or try working on the conditioning lessons, or even give hooping or chair work a try!

About the permanent mounts…..I LOVE THEM best thing ever!! They make the pole feel more secure, and if you’re talking about xpoles, the spin mode is much smoother and faster using a mount. There is no risk of it slipping. Setting it up is so much faster than with the dome. Regardless of how you mount your pole they need to be checked every single time you dance on them. We have been renting homes for years and years and we put up the permanent mounts without issue. Just fill the holes when you take the mount down. If your joist are strong enough to hang a fan from you can put up a mount.
My husband likes to place a flat block of wood between the ceiling and the mount, drilling the wood into the joist, and then the mount into the wood and joist. This way the mount can’t rub and push into the sheet rock.

I don’t have any experience in this. Hopefully someone has an answer for you! I do know that sitting or standing for long periods of time makes them worse and they can be painful.
