    Nessy, your support has been much appreciated this month! Being that I only teach online, it’s hard to know if what you’re posting is helpful or even appreciated when you can’t see peoples reactions in person!

    Must be because it’s Sunday, but I woke up and was laying there trying to decided if I would periscope! I knew I was working lower body today and I thought “Sunday bum day, of course”. Then I see this twerking thread!! It’s a booty kinda day I guess 🍑🍑🍑

    If you don’t like something look away. It’s not like people try and trick others by labeling vidoes like “learn about Jesus” and then show twerking lol. Although I wouldn’t put that past some!

    I try to avoid using it when I dance because it does make it greasy! 😐🙃🙃

    February 27, 2016 at 6:50 pm in reply to: Phases of Food and Pole

    I use to feel this way, (my whole life) turns out my issue was my body didn’t like dairy!! Not saying this is your problem, but I use to have phases like this and often feel blah and not interested in food. Then after a trip to NY on the plane ride home I realized I had felt great that whole trip and it was even a stressful situation, yet I felt good and not anxious. So I thought about the places we had eaten and realized I hadn’t had dairy!! I tried the lactose free stuff but it didn’t work. So now I’ve been very rescritive about dairy and it’s been life changing!!! I just thought I would mention it 💜

    Girl on a pole, have you tried supplementing studio lessons with the lessons here? You’ll see greater progress if you’re able to refer back and watch. You’ll also find that working on all of the off pole training here is very helpful. 😊

    He end result as you lift is a Twisted grip. A regular handspring and cartwheel doesn’t use a twisted grip. Here is a visual of a split grip inverted (not twisted as seen in the video still) Can you see the difference?

    As in the spin from reverse grip into an inverted split grip. No, I don’t teach anything with a twisted grip.

    Old thinking for sure Stefana! I’ve seen this video and know other girls who pose for nude sites and do aerial or pole work wonderfully…doesn’t matter to me. Our bodies are beautiful and we should be able to share (to those who are interested) and use them to express ourselves anyway we enjoy.

    I remember you it’s nice to see you back! I’ve got 3 stage poles PS and 2 x stages, light and regular. They all have sway, you’ll get use to it, but I have worked with a few people that were scared of the movement, but it’s something you could get use to. I’ve not seen a pole on the x stage bend or break.

    I’m assuming you’re talking about taking pole class? As mentioned, is there a reason you’re taking classes that focus on the gymnastics side, do you like it or is it just what they do? What brought you to pole in the first place? This aspect of pole is cool, but not for everyone and certainly not the only way to enjoy pole. Have you had a chance to read my Veena Method course, it might help you understand what kinds of expectations you should be placing on yourself. https://www.studioveena.com/methods/letter

    I literally just finished doing a periscope where I set up the A frame for the first time in over a year! It was a learning experience lol Here’s the broadcast if you’re interested. https://www.periscope.tv/w/aZykyjFQWEtkb1lEQlpRZXZ8MUx5eEJ6eUJ3UFl4TrudAb8NXyZ9SAe3QJVSr3R7j-Wkm35GVwamgZkWKFOg

    Are you holding your breath? Also, a bridge does require a ton of effort when you’re first learning, so it could just be the amount of effort you’re putting into it. Do you get the same sensation when doing camel or other back bending poses?

    If you’re feeling so down that you can’t function you need to contact a professional. It can help to hear what worked for someone else so keeping comments to what worked for you is most helpful. When you’ve dealt with something personally it’s bound to get a little heated when discussing. Thank you all for caring enough to respond to someone you’ve never even met! That’s awesome!

    On a side note, there are studies that claim creative people (like us) tend to deal more with depression and anxiety. It’s super common with those who enjoy expressing themselves through dance!

    Yep, they’re right! You’ll want to think about what the climate is like where you live and how much you sweat. However, every pole finish is workable with a good warm up and the right grip aid for your body and situation. If you can choose a finish that doesn’t require grip aids it will make poling less of a hassle, some people need them regardless tho, for example if they sweat a lot.

    I’m so sorry to hear this, I deal with this as well. If it’s coming to this point please contact a professional to talk with. There are hot lines you can call free.

    One thing that helps me is to exercise and stay off the computer (if you tend to just brows) avoid social media and tv. Existing by watching other people’s lives can be detrimental to our mental health and it wastes our time!!! It can feel like an impossible task to just get up and motivated to do anything (you can have physical pain when dealing with depression) but if I can just get moving that helps. I also know for myself I have low times durning different times of the month so I have been aware of this and it helps me deal and prepare myself! Eating well can play a big part for me too! I’m so happy you feel you can reach out to us so know you’re not alone 💜

    Yay that’s great news! Stay consistent with the exercises and you should see good results. Phone watching and posture are big issues for people and it’s not uncommon for even people who workout to have a weak area.
