    Not a fan of them. If you are curvy or have big boobs this won’t work. Most of my girls and I have found that it does have enough fabric to move around. I’m a 36d and the bra barely covered my boobs. Too expensive to keep trying to find the right fit.

    I teach PST in Chicago. I’m the 1st to teach here. 😉 I love it and there are so many things you can do with it. I’ve posted a few on my Instagram. But if you need help I’ll be glad to post videos. Look for @LifeOfAPoleTrick

    I have huge stage fright and still do!! But the only way you’ll get over it is to perform. The best thing I did was perform to events so that if I mess up it’s not a big deal. The other best thing was doing a performance with other people first. This helped me get use to the audience, the lights and having to perform.

    Don’t drop out. If you do, you’ll never get over it. Trust me that your routine will go faster then that stomach pain will start. Before you know it… you’re done. I had a trick I wanted to do for my competition. But I fell out of it and even got tangled up. I created a backup just incase hoping not used it. But I practiced for hours and hours so I can feel more comfortable. Keep practicing. Even if it’s low it still practicing.

    Another thing… record yourself. You would be amazing that all your fears make you think it looks bad. But it doesn’t! I was very surprise at mine and people didn’t even know how scared I was. LOL Hope this helps.=)

    October 20, 2016 at 9:20 pm in reply to: Pole silks, xpole units or fab pole wrap?

    I started teaching using FabPole. It is a lot easier to set up especially if you need to put them up and down for class. Plus doesn’t matter the size of poles. But I do have Sikkii and PoleSilks. I use them on my XPole stage. They are really sturdy and you don’t have to adjust them all the time. Although you should always test all of these after a class. 😉

    I teach on permanent mount, tension mount, and XPole stage and have not had any issues. Of course there ARE certain tricks you should avoid depending on which you are using.

    Hi Mechie! I have it for a single Lyra. Never tried it on a double but I don’t see why not. Except you’ll have to play attention since one side will have more weight so the Lyra might shift is the only thing I can think of. Or place it in the middle of both hoops and you’ll be fine.

    September 2, 2016 at 11:49 pm in reply to: Bad Kitty Sizing Confusion

    For other girls wondering… Ok I’m a bit bigger 36d and the large are way too small. My boobs came out. And the shorts are too small and waist too big. Bought a top and shorts and only used it once. 🙁 I’ve heard this from other girls my size as well.

    Yeah I wouldn’t recommend removing the plates. That’s dangerous in that if you land a certain way you my hit yourself pretty bad. Plus sometimes the legs will move if it’s in an unstable platform. The plates keep everything together. Hopefully someone will find or make something lighter 🙂

    I feel you on this one!! I have to carry this up 4 flights of stairs!! My back kills me after 8 times of up and down. I started looking at other options like the RPole but found out it cost $1400 w shipping. More then my rent!!! If I was able to afford it I would. I do wish there were other option that were less heavy.

    PoleKat- you’re so funny!! I decided not to buy the hoop on the physical Lyra because of the height I have to work with. But when I get higher ceilings I will. 😉

    I did buy the foot/hand loop instead. That way I can take it off when I want but can do similar trips.

    Amelia72 -Yes, my Xpole lite was wobbling too but then I got use to it. Now I use it with my FabPole but there are certain tricks I will not do on it.

    I saw some videos of R-Poles and the girl was doing all kinds of tricks on it and it didn’t look wobbly. I’m looking for something more portable, light weight and fast to assembly. I’m on the 4th floor and need to travel with my Xpole lite which is about 3 trips on 4 flights of stairs =O talk about a work out and it’s heavy!!

    Thanks!! I’ll try it!! I don’t know why this is happening. It happened 3 times already and can’t figure out how to get it off. I tried removing the pole then trying to move the base and it wouldn’t move at all. I know it’s line up cause I marked it with arrows so I know where the lock is located inside and on the pole. This is driving up the wall.

    Phoenix Hunter – Yes! This is it!! I remembered seeing this somewhere and couldn’t remember the name. It is expensive for such little it has. I wish XPole created something like this. I have a lite stage and I think you’re right.. Keep the plates. It’s to high and you might trip with the metals. Thanks for your help!!!

    NettieMarie – I didn’t know that could even be done. Yes the plates are heavy and was looking for some more portable. This is good to know.

    Is there a big different in learning or just a bonus feature? I’m debating between the two.

    Thanks AllysonKendal! Forgot about the extra space needed. I do have low ceilings.

    Also noticed that it can be pulled out if I losen the X so then it’s on spin. Then it moves. Agh!!

  • I am interested as well especially for Lyra. Just can’t find anything driving distance from Chicago and most place I did find are out of the country :/

    I would have to agree. This is pole fitness. They cannot tell you what to do. If you are worried, create another name for social media and another email that it can’t trace back to you. Also when post images you can hide your face with certain tricks if you still feel they can figure out who you are.

    Hellcat,
    Yes, I will! I can’t wait.
    Don’t worry about it. I’m sure we can plan another day. For right now, Tuesdays and Thursday are good day until after competition. After that my days will free up a bit more. I teach classes so I can do an hour before or after.
