    As my good friend Layla Duvay told me when I first started, us big girls have to work that much harder!

    I have to agree. There are lots of things I can't do. Invert on my own, some spins are hard, but no matter what, I have fun and I always look forward to the next thing I can do. I will always encourage my dance mates along the way and they always seem to celebrate my little victories when I have them. I couldn't imagine living without pole!

    I'm a grandmother too and even though I have been poling for over two years, I cant' do have that stuff, but what an inspiration. She is amazing and I want to do what she does.

    Hey, Dance for yourself. Embrace your sensuality and your womanhood. I dance for myself and I don't care if its sexy or not. I have fun and love the community of women that I have met through pole fitness.

     And yeah, if he can't appreciate this, well, then the heck with him.

    Welcome.

     If you can, buy, Veeena's lessons They are clear and concise for the beginners. Also if you are concerned about your physical makeup, check out MiniCooperGirl. She is an inspiration for us ladies that have a few extra inches.

     Flexibility is something that you build up over time. Stretching helps at the end of your poling or just deep intensive stretching on your non poling days.

      I have an XPole and an Aradia pole. Both are great.

      Take baby steps and you will be awesome.

    Good topic.

    First, a good website. Give a lot of information and pricing. Six week classes are great for me, but if you can't do a class, offer a makeup class structure.  Keep it to about six girls per class maximum so that the ones having some issues can get the help they need.

    Second, lots of drop in classes and teaser classes to bring in customers.

    Third, keep the lighting low. It gets hot in there with the spinning and poles get too slippery.

    Fourth, staff that is upbeat and friendly.  No cell phones unless you have an absolute emergency.

    The eviornment should be supportive and fun, a sense of comaraderie. This is one of the things that I love about the studio that I go to. I know she is more expensive than everyone else, but considering that her staff get constant training and there are always new things to learn, I think it becomes more cost effective.

    I am not as fast at picking up tings as the others in my class, but never once has anyone ever made me feel less than what I am. In fact, they have always made me feel like I have accomplished something even when it is small.

    That is the testement of a good studio.

    It is by far the truest list I've seen. I am dreaming of the day I can invert on my own and do a beautiful decending angel.

    So tell me, am I the only one that does hip circles in the car while driving on the highway to work and wish I could wear my stilettos to work without wiping out in the showroom?

    And Yes! It is the most addictive sport!

    Well, I had no upper body strength, and I am still about 40lbs away from being where I want to be, but I am consistant. I can now climb, the pole hold is still a challange and inverting is coming slowly. Patience, persistance, and encouragement from the lovely ladies here and at the studio where I go.

     One Day At A Time!

    Oh yes, and you can do it, girl.
