How old were you when you discovered pole dance?
Posted by polergirl on January 1, 2010 at 3:31 amI was 38….which, coincidentally, is my current age. I am having so much fun with it but certainly lack some of the, errrr, bendiness I had once upon a time as a young pup, and getting it back is proving to be a LOT of work! Oh, how I wish I’d discovered the joys of the pole in my 20s. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif

Started poling just over 1.5 years ago although I’d been interested in trying it for over 5 years. I was 31 when I started.

I installed my pole 2 years ago…so 38. But barely still 38 as my b-day is in January.
I am also having the same bendiness issues.

I was 33 and have been doing it for almost a year – wish I had started earlier but love that I’ve got many years ahead with it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I started poling when I was 42 but that was just playing around on the pole when I was out with friends. I started more serious training when I was 44. That was nearly 6 years ago…I’ll be 50 in May!

I first discovered pole dance when i was 16, im now 18, i turned 18 in august and finally got my pole in october, so iv been poling for around 3/4 months https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif And loving every bit of it, i have a friend who has been doing it a little longer than me and a few bars around where i live and were we go ‘clubbing’ have poles in them so its always a laugh to show our moves to others and teach other people simple moves, a few of them went off wanting to join lessons so thats always good too! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif All of my friends who have tried my pole have instantly wanted one haha https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Chem, my birthday is January as well! Yeah, Capricorn https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
I discovered (as in, danced on my first pole) it around the age of…err, 21? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif Perhaps 20. I don’t remember well because it was a very tremulous time of my life, lots of moving and trying to figure out what I was doing. However, I’m pretty sure I moved out the first time right before I turned 20, because my husband and I have been together for 4 years now, and we got together right after I moved out. And then he and I got a place together… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gifYep, I was 20! Which means I have been trying to pole dance for about 3 and a half years now! Wow! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
I still haven’t gotten inversions, and my pole and I have our in-and-out of love, but I think it’s getting better now. I certainly find I can think better when I pole lots! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gifI think it’s great that all you older ladies didn’t balk at doing something like this (and no, I don’t mean "older" as in you’re old, just older than me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif) and are still going for it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif Flexibility isn’t one of those things you always have young…I’m finding I screwed up my muscles something fierce for most of my highschool years, and even a bit before that, so I’ve gotta work hard to get them back in order!

Wish I could say it was when I was 18/19….. I did try to do a cross knee release once as a waitress when I was 23 and I also learned fireman spin and princess spin.. but then I didn’t do anything again until I turned 26, 2 years ago.

I got hooked by my first-and only to date-visit to a strip club at 18. The girls were doing fairly simple tricks now that I look back on it, but with the flawless transitions and floorwork, not to mention the pure sex factor of eye contact that I could never ever master, I was mesmerized. I went home and found tarakarina on yt, and it was then I discovered she poles to deal with anxiety. That started an obsession with pole. But I didn’t get my xpole until September of 09. I’m 21 now, so it’s been a 3 year obsession. I only wish I’d gotten my pole sooner because it’s the best thing I’ve ever dine for myself. I had no adult sexual identity until I found pole. I’d completely shut that part of myself off. But you can’t avoid your own sexiness dancing in front of a mirror on a pole in 6" heels!
