Thanks so much for the info guys…

Very good to know. You're probably very right about the strength thing…

If I can't do it properly, then I shouldn't do it at all! Even though it is super fun, I will refrain from using this grip anymore 🙁

The physio therapist I saw is also a pole student.. She told me its from overuse rather, so I have to trust that. For my body personally it’s been too much I guess. And because of the muscles not being able to work together because of the displacement of my shoulder, it has made it weak even though I have lots of muscle tone. So it was probably overuse and then twisted grip thrown into it when my muscles weren’t working together in this first place.

The shoulder in my top arm is what got wrecked. My bottom supporting arm just gets shooting pains through it occasionally, but it's the shoulder of my right that bothers me most of the time now. 

A physiotherapist assessed me and she said it's from overuse in general… apparently 13 hours of pole a week isn't good for you

Sucks that I have to teach a lot, and feel barely able to do anything now. My range of motion is terrible 🙁

Sometimes I just join in and make fun of myself for doing it.

It's slowly making its way around to be a more serious sport than how people have previously viewed it
But pole dancing has really changed my life, and made me more confident and happy
So I need to thank myself for doing it. I don't need to prove to anybody else how amazing it is… it's already proven to me how awesome it is
