Dyvo- I have the same problem. Normally as soon as the alarm goes off I’m ready to roll. When it gets cooler I am the complete opposite, I want to stay under covers. I picked a song for my alarm that makes me want to dance, and keep my coat by my bedside. Its work half the time, half the time not. I’m still trying to come up with a consistent solution…

Hi Hallie. Welcome to SV! I’m from Ohio as well. Pole is the only exercise I have stuck with, b/c its fun and doesnt seem like exercise. The lessons on here are great and I like xpole- there are several different kinds so if you have any questions let me know. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

This is inspiring! My grandparents are 93 and are still living on their own. My grandma always exercised (mainly walking and dancing) so it doesn’t have to be hard core (unless you enjoy hardcore.) The important thing is to keep active and starting at ANY age will help. Hmm, years from now we will be seeing categories for polers over 70? he he

Thanks Azriel! I’m excited. I already got some orders. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I plan on developing more (besides clothing), it just takes a while to develop items.

Loopy_II- It is a great thing. I have seen news articles on male pole dancing but not so much on tv, though I hardly watch tv. Have you heard of any other tv ones?
Trena – He is! I showed my hair picture to my husband when I got back home and told him my hair was done by Bad Azz, and he’s like I guess it bad azz, though that’s not the first word to come to mind. lol

I got to meet Josiah personally when 3 guy polers came to Ohio! I lucked out! I took a private lesson with him. He has a fun personality and is AMAZING to watch. Its kinda funny, he reminds me of my brother so much! He also did my hair. lol If you get a chance, take a lesson with him. Highly recommend. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

amyxshi and verucablue-Thanks so much! I apologize for the delay. I haven’t been getting forum post emails from SV b/c somehow it ended up in junk. It does this ever so often. I finally found a circus school (somewhat near me) that does ariel work so I am going to check it out!
-
amyxshi and verucablue -Thanks for your help! I will have to keep you both in mind if I have further questions. Do you take classes or have silks in your house?
For now, I’ll just post up the few I have in question.arielsilk.jpeg

Jodes_86- Great goals! Thanks for sharing.
For the following:
Pole Exercise (one strength exercise)
Are you focusing on different parts of body or working on the same exercise until you decide to change it? -
Great goals everybody! I’ll just post my progress weekly to keep things simple. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I have daily, weekly, monthly goals so for weekly it will say 1/4 weeks if I meet the goal. I missed one session of pole/ stretching late week so it has me not meeting my goal but I still did well. Check it out:

How was the last week for everyone?
-
Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I’m slow at learning stuff too but all that matters is enjoying the journey. Happy pole-versary!
-
First transition: pirouette
First spin: fireman
First trick: I’m not sure…
First invert took me forever and then inverted crucifix (I’m cautious and it takes me a while to get move regardless. Oh well. ) I’m happy when I do get them! -
I am right handed but for pole I like doing left handed best. The other day my husband noticed my arms had more muscle, which was nice!
https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_question.gif Oddly, my right arm is slightly bigger than my left even though I use my left 80% more in pole. What should I do to even it out? Anybody? Its not big difference, but I noticed when I compared them, is that normal?poleaphile- your Scooby doo comment cracks me up, now I’m going to think that. lol

I wanted to use something to help me keep track of my goals better. I found something that’s FREE, simple, can be accessed anywhere (internet or phone), and I can show my weekly progress on this thread using a link. It also has FB functions if desired. You can make EACH goal private or public. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif
Just thought I’d let you guys know. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Thanks! Those are the two I know of too. Either would work. I told my friend if had time to do both , if not since she knows a lot of polers, to pick most popular. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

I am thinking pose…hmm I wonder if there is two different ones? Or is the pose your thinking of part of the spin?
-
I have a friend who is doing a photoshot today so she is going to try to get it posed for me. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif Spins are hard to catch but since its a professional maybe he can capture it.

reenie-I saw the wall of fame pic on your profile and it looks great! I thought about doing something similar to my pole room but wasn’t sure how to hang them. What did you use?
