Greetings from Portugal!!!
Hi everyone!
Almost a year ago I started pole dancing. The teacher is an amazing dancer but wasn´t very good at teaching (I´m a dance teacher myself so I know what to look for) and everyone else kept giving up so the classes didn´t last very long, but I automaticly saw the possibilities…My first class and I turned into a pole junkie! Ordered an Xpole the first week!
I was only at it for 3 months, mostly by myself, and had to stop to have surgery for a spine injury (totally unrelated to the pole, in truth those 3 months were the least painful I´ve had in years!) That was 5 months ago, and I´m still in fisio therapy and will be for a while. Have lost almost all my strength in arms and upper back. Of course this is all very dissapointing for me especially because I can´t stop thinking about that pole! dreaming, daydreaming…It´s driving me loony!
So I found this great site (congrats Veena!) and have been browsing through the forum for the last couple of weeks trying to decide if I should actually participate. I feel kind of silly because I can´t even pole now but you all seem so kind and supportive and fun! Anyway,I want to be part of this, feel close to the pole even though I can´t be on the pole!…(Yeah! I´m a basket case!)
Is that ok?Best wishes, Frida

Welcome to the forum! I’d be doing the same thing if I was off pole for awhile – I’d be chatting all over the forums. Keep your spirits up – you’ll be back on the pole soon!

Hi Fridasiren and welcome!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
You are not a basket case!!!! When I joined StudioVeena I wasnt able to use my pole either. My ceiling had been damaged by a leak and I couldnt use the pole. I found the site really good because I felt ‘in the loop’ still. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
And when you can eventually use your pole again the people on this site will be more than willing to give you hints and tips on the approach to take!
Great to have you here! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif -
I know what this longing for a pole means!
I started pole exercising in 2004, but I didn’t have a pole, I just went to classes once a week. Then I got pneumonia and was off exercises for a while, but almost a year after I had started, I got myself a pole. The fun did not last long – I was living in England and moved to Brazil, carrying the pole. After about 5 months I was back to England but my pole stayed in Brazil. More than 2 years without a pole and now I am back to Brazil and getting slowly back into the swing of things and have joined the forum… but I know well what it is to be an expectator only…
Anyway, greetings from Brazil!
