    Just wanted to say hello to my fellow pole divas! Just started pole 3 days ago and i am obsessed. Hubby bought me a pole for mother’s day and i am learning through online lessons. I’ve been trying to get in shape for the past year with some success. I prefer working out at home since i have no sitter for my 15 month old and hubby works so this is perfect. I think i may finally have found my passion!

    Hello Nina and welcome!! 🙂 I’ve been pole dancing for almost three months and I’m loving it too! I even started doing stretching sessions twice or 3 times a week to improve my flexibility and gain more strenght. My xpole arrived two weeks ago so now I can go to my studio lessons and then pole a little bit more at home (not that I can do much appart from abs and stretching because I’m REALLY tired…).
    Anyway, enjoy and welcome! 🙂

    Hi Nina!
    Glad to have you here- this is an awesome and super supportive community, and has a lot of knowledge and encouragement to give! Veena’s lessons here are also excellent! She has a 30 day takeoff that helps with getting a proper workout routine and habit going, and orders all her moves in order of difficulty. Many other people will point to things like a basic invert as a “beginner move,” which it really isn’t! I’ve found Veena’s lessons to be very true to my own progression, and I’ve seen lots of others have the same experience. You can always take a look at how they’re ordered even if you aren’t subscribed… and, she also has a 3 day free trial with the code GET3FREE if you want to check them out 😉
    Sorry, I’m sounding like an infomercial!
    I’ve been poling for about 6 years now- I’m certainly not as good as you might expect! I’ve had my own challenges with my pole journey, though, and have only recently been creating a solid and enjoyable habit, with proper support and encouragement from the people now in my life. I’m still a beginner, but I’m happy 🙂
    I’ve also been on here with Studio Veena for like… I dunno, 5ish years? haha, long time!

    This place has been the best for me 🙂 I hope you enjoy it!

    Welcome, Nina! This site is a great resource, both for lessons and community support. I absolutely recommend the lessons. They have kept me going even though I currently don’t have anywhere to take classes. I hope you enjoy it here. Best of luck with your new pole!
