I really like my 45mm. But I make sure to dance on my 50mm just as much if not more, because it improves my grip strength. If you only plan on dancing at home, then a 45mm is great! If you would like to take classes, work in a club or compete get the 50mm, this is the standard size and it is much easier to switch from larger to smaller and not the other way around. I have known many tiny girls who danced on a 50mm. 45mm is my personal fav!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Alright!! I was wondering if that was the case. Your soooo lucky https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif Have fun.

You might have a hard time with your grip if your shoulders are not real flexible and if your hands aren’t strong enough yet. Weak biceps wouldn’t’ be the main issue, because the arm is outstretched and it should be straight (not locked though) you really need a strong grip. Don’t forget to cross your ankles (doing that can do wonders until you are stronger) and squeeze your thighs to help you stay up. Keep working on both sides, always try to learn the moves on both sides. IF your afraid of falling you could try it from the ground to work on the position. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

No sorry I don’t know anyone up there in OR. I barely know of places around the San Fran area, I have only lived here a year, and most of that time I was preggers, working on the site or taking care of my kids, so I’m just now starting to find out all CA has to offer. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Maybe another member knows of someone?

Maybe you could ask a neighbor if they know what the ceilings are made out of, or which way the studs run. You could try calling the condos office too, if there is one. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

Sounds like maybe you have plaster ceilings. A stud finder wont work well on plaster, you’ll get all kinds of readings. Unless you know your ceiling is cement, you HAVE to find the stud/joist!! You will damage your ceiling if you just randomly place it anywhere. Are you in the US? Do you rent or own your home?

That’s fantastic that you love pole so much!! But Oh my…no bruising on your side isn’t something you should experience if your inverting properly. Never kick hard or jump into an invert, this can cause injury to your shoulders and back. If pole is a new form, or only form, of exercise than, its totally normal for it to take a few months to be strong enough to invert safely. Work on strength moves with the pole….I have a bunch in my lessons if your taking them, and don’t rush. Inverting is fun but dealing with injuries that keep you off your pole are not. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif Oh one last thing yeah, your skin should stick to the pole, thats good! but yes its normal to feel pain on your skin, when your trying new moves…..it will get better. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I bought a pole from pole aerobics…is this a decent pole?
From what I have seen of it…the quality is that of an electra, peek a boo and my little sexy poles. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif So be careful while using it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_colors.gif -
