Nice links…..just make sure you understand some of the moves listed here are not for beginners! Don’t get upset if you can’t perform them https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif
One more thing…she forgot to mention engaging your shoulders, (the whole shoulders back and down) before you perform the split grips or brackets as she calls them. Protect your shoulders https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Having a good knee pit grip, requires strong hamstrings. The moves that Jenn suggested are good ones to work on. Side climbing is another good one to help you learn to grab with the knee pit. (but its really tough) The more angle you can create between your calf and hamstring, the better grip you will get with the pit. If that makes any sense. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I’d say do small spins until your belly gets in the way!! lol I only got 2 more weeks left!! Unfortunately it’s most likely going to be a c-section unless this little girl decides to turn which equals more recovery time and more wait time to get to the pole… booooooooooooooooooooooo You could try doing the cat and dog poses…I have heard it sometimes encourages the baby to turn in the right direction..and it feels great on the back. Don’t stress about it, your baby might just turn when its ready. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I posted this awhile back when polenagger had a question about it. Its not terribly explanatory but here you go. What ever you do stay off the knee cap….the pole goes below the knee cap, not on.

OMG that was an amazing story!!!! I instinctively cuddled all my babies to my chest….I hated when the hospital (with the first 2) made me give them up, to do all the new born tests https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif I loooved my home births because they didn’t rush my babies away…they can do many of the new born tests as you cuddle! That is such a great story. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

No, no Don’t feel bad! Boys are bless with all that upper body strength that we have to work so hard to achieve. The have an advantage. Yes pole dance is HARD!! That is what can make it sooooo rewarding, the simplest move should be celebrated…I mean that. If it were easy, we all wouldn’t feel so damn cool when we finally nail a new move…or any move for that matter. Pole dancers defy gravity! Your not alone, keep at it. Try and do some strength training with your pole, this can help your dancing really improve. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

All right VEENA. I’m starting to come out slowly but surely. I’m Joni from mississauga, ontario. I have been pole dancing for 2 years. I’m 43 and just felt so much older than you all in your 20’s and 30’s, so I HAVE BEEN HIDING just watching all the great vids and great topics. BUT i am slowly creaping out of the woodwork. I have learned alot from you all and I THANK YOU ALL for that. Joni https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif
LOL Glad I coaxed you out of the age closet. BUT 43 isn’t old!! There are plenty of others here your age and up!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Welcome!! Its great to have another male dancer https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif there are now 10 male members and all of them really pole dance!!

Yes Melania, you need to use all of the pieces for the pole if your ceiling is 9ft. The X pole CAN extend to 9ft. If it fell down it was not installed properly! Are you sure you ceiling are 9ft? Also you MUST center the pole under one stud/joist? Ceilings flex and the joist keeps the pole locked in place. If you have carpet you must hang or stand with full body weight on the pole, then re tighten, do this a few times… That’s why they have the lady standing on the base of the pole on the dvd. I have my X extended to 9ft on carpet and NEVER had a problem. ANY pole can fall if not installed properly, I had a permanent platinum stages pole fall down on me. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif Re check that you have put it together right, haven’t over extended it, and that you have put it in the right place and follow the process of putting up carefully.

Hi, Welcome! Making sure you pole is nice and warm will help prevent slipping, a nice clean pole and clean hands are a must too. Check out this article about your pole and how the climate can affect it.
