Oh, if it’s new maybe it wasn’t cleaned yet? Definitely let us know if it smells like brass, because it can be helpful for others to know about your experience with it! I have to use grip aid with mine unless I’m sweaty 🙂
-
That’s an unusual response to brass, it sounds just like what most, myself included experience with TG. The poles smell right? Maybe there’s a build up of product on their brass? 🤔🤔

Our costs have risen and so must the price! If you saw 99 it might have been something we missed pulling down or you saw it before the New year. Check to make sure you’re receiving the website emails because we do sales off and on as Allyson mentioned. I don’t do tours, sell clothes, charge for website access or dvds. Lesson sales are the only support we have to keep the site going and you wont find more complete lessons than here. 🙂

Tropical, are they sure it’s a brass pole? That behavior sounds like titanium gold.

If you sweat TG gets slick so brass works better if you’re a sweater 😉 Maintaining isn’t hard, I don’t mind that mine doesn’t look super shiny, if you want to keep is super polished than it will take some effort but I don’t bother. Lol

I’ve got every type of finish and have lived in all kinds of climates and brass seems to be the finish that works the best over all and favorite size is 40mm. I LOVE my sv powder coated pole but they don’t make it any more and the xpole PC pole finish isn’t as grippy as the SV pole was so I’d say brass, TG gets slick if you live around humidity as does chrome.

I always have at least one full rest day a week…I don’t workout at all! On active rest days I hula hoop, clean the house, walk or do some easy movement dancing, nothing where I have to lif the my body much lol

This is an old thread 🙂 2014
-
I’ve thought about it too, but I get stuck on what size! If you get them let us know how they work!!
-
Yes, grip is part of it so sweaty or dry skin can make climbs more challenging. If it’s sweat don’t use itac as that is better for dry cold skin. Try Dry hands or Might grip like Robin suggested.

Handsprings are next 🙂

I’ve been working on planning out the Shoulder Mount program! I can’t say how soon it will be finished because with the kids and life I never know for sure when I can record. But the first step is to plan it out!
-
There’s not a routine just for shoulders yet, almost anything you would need shoulder flexibility for you need flexibility in the back or chest too so if you want a routine use the Back Mobility, it’s not just for the back.
Also remember all lessons are in order so if there is a muscle group you want to focus on whether it’s to strengthen or stretch, read the descriptions to see what muscles are focused on (if you’re not sure) then you can start with the first lesson listed for that muscle group and work your way down the list because I have things grouped by muscles and in order according to difficulty. 🙂
If you start with the Camel stretch https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4decd31f-e1b8-48f7-9bd4-046f0ac37250 You’ll find 11 more stretches that target the shoulders! Just click next to see them in order. 🙂

I’ve got two! One is the xpole black pc and the other is by Lil Mynx…it was our branded studioveena pole, so it’s purple. Both are 45 mm poles. Let me know of you’d like to come try them!

Hi! Welcome back 💜💜
-
Haha, yes some options don’t apply 😂😂 I hope it works for you!
-
I don’t handle payments, I’ll have to check and see if your request was received.
-
That’s good to hear, it seems these days people only know about the TG grip and have never even seen a cartwheel mount or handspring, makes me feel old! lol
-
Yay for brass pole…. I found this article that has a few options for cleaning brass! Can you believe catchup is one! I might try it myself on a piece of my pole that won’t polish up. https://www.bobvila.com/articles/how-to-clean-brass/ Let me know if any of these work!
-
You’re welcome! Do studios still teach cartwheel and Handspring or are they only doing TG “handspring”?
-
What do I eat?! Hmm here’s an example:
Breakfast: Oatmeal pretty much every morning, with goodbelly juice or tea
Snack: Protein shake after AM workout
Lunch: Tuna, sautéed kale and sweet potato or pasta
Snack: Chips and salsa
Dinner: This varies a lot from tacos to stir fry to pizza but it’s all made at home.
As others said making things ahead of time is super helpful, for me I make enough dinner so I usually have leftovers for myself for lunch! Cutting up veggies and putting them into containers, having fresh fruit around.

These will all help you work toward that position: Foot to head lesson is a great one for this https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/5625848b-9610-42ce-9ece-7bae0a9aa0eb Also the back mobility routine, the, Advanced Ballerina Stretch https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/548cc3f2-2494-4bc1-9989-1d680a9aa0eb
Upper back and shoulder stretch https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/548ccbb6-b988-494c-a075-39aa0a9aa0eb
and Reverse shoulder stretch https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/548cc678-6f54-43f8-b624-29920a9aa0eb
Be sure to stretch the triceps and shoulders before working on this from pigeon. You could start with the listed stretches above then end with the pose.

Hi! Even if you have poled for a few yrs going through the 30 take off will help you understand my method of teaching. Even seasoned pole dancers have gone back to the basics and benefited from this program. 💜
