    @Jesikah Which nail polish company? It’s good to see another Phoenician!

    December 26, 2013 at 9:06 am in reply to: What are your pole goals for 2014?

    My “I’m getting this no matter what” goal is the handstand press. I can balance pretty well on my hands in the initial movement, but my quads are so tight that I can’t press up to get my feet past my hands. I can do the deadlift handstand part from a straddle stand as well. It’s really just the motion of getting my feet past my hands and getting my quads loose. So a lot of stretching!

    Ayesha. Is always my goal. Stupid move is stupid.

    I want to do everything on my left side as well as my right side. Since I’ve been on a 6 month pole hiatus, ontop of learning almost nothing new this year, I lost a lot of strength. I’m restarting with Veena’s lessons and a few other free alternatives around the internet. And I’m going to keep at it 🙂 If I can start over Christmas, there’s no excuse to NOT do it at any other time.

    December 9, 2013 at 8:14 pm in reply to: Dress Code in a Pole Studio?

    As a student, I wouldn’t go to her studio–I have my own space at home to pole and learn and I can wear whatever the hell I want. I’m not saying everyone should go in their skivvies–but what about Halloween Videos and Bringing Sexy Back? Events and such. If you’re training for a certain performance and you don’t know how well your outfit will stay in place during the routine, etc.

    Boundaries are fine if they’re reasonable. I don’t think this is reasonable.

    If you want to be THAT studio that denounces the stripping roots, I have no problem with the studio not offering “Stripper-esque” classes. But don’t tell me that in MY free time that I PAY you to have free time in, what I am and am not allowed to wear.

    Hmmm…you could try the matte nail polish? I used to nail polish my pleasers when they got too scuffed up. It worked well for a couple of weeks. Or uh…I know modge-podge has a matte finish. If you just painted a coat over your shoes, that might also work.

    @AG So should my pole be laying down? I’m not sure how I would make the chopstick touch the ground, otherwise.

    @Yuengling right. Except the pole was GIVEN to me attached to the A-pole instead of extension (which is what I need.) A-pole is stuck. I can’t unstick it.

    Like, that’s where I’m trying to unscrew the extension from. Not from the main pole. But the extension from the plate. Not the little piece from the plate. Does that make sense?

    Whatever that part is. That’s the part that’s stuck. I can’t unscrew it to put in the attachment. It’s literally just the two longer tubes on my pole. Atleast, that’s how it was handed off to me.

    December 4, 2013 at 8:36 pm in reply to: Have you ever met someone in person from SV?

    Soooo it’s completely normal to go onto dating websites to meet potential spouses, but it’s not acceptable to find friends with a very niche passion? Ok.

    Not to sound harsh against your family but that train of thought is so strange to me.

    As a PC gamer I’ve met gamers from all over the country. For the League of Legends world semi-finals this year, I flew out a friend who I’ve never even met before. It was awesome. I meet people from the internet all the time. I have never, not once, in my 7 years of meeting people from the internet, had a negative experience. Be careful (duh) make sure you like the person (duh) meet in a public place (duh) and almost nothing can go wrong.

    November 14, 2013 at 9:22 pm in reply to: silicone xpole,when????

    You can technically spin on it—it’s just near impossible. The texture is similar to chinese pole. I’m told by a Bad Kitty Ambassador that it’s supposed to be Q1 of next year. Even though x-pole was supposed to have it out before Christmas of this year.

    it’s pretty much the exact same thing as a pole sleeve. An x-pole rep came into SV and commented on this a couple of months back in this thread:

    Speaking generally, a well designed app usually takes up less battery power than a phone based web-browser. That’s really my only personal, solid reason.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZeAgpCqUE8 Here’s what I’m talking about. THIS is what happens every time I post a video with music, embedded or otherwise. It gets muted.

    October 27, 2013 at 8:20 pm in reply to: Pole Dance Shoes… Slides – good or bad?

    You can always get those lace up things that go all the way up your leg to firmly plant them on your feet. Just tie under the heel and around the ankle and you should be good to go. I have never worn that style of shoe, but know many dancers who do adv tricks in them. I think it will just take some getting used to 🙂

    October 24, 2013 at 7:57 am in reply to: Shoe Indecision! Arrghhhhh

    I do not recommend the 609s. The last two pairs I’ve had, and also girls that I’ve worked with, have had patent rip within hours (never happened with my Tony’s) and also have had lifting of the sole within a day or two. I’m glad I quit dancing and don’t have to pay into shoes anymore, because Pleaser’s quality has done nothing but decrease since I started dancing. And that was only almost a year and a half ago, I hate to see what their shoes are like in 5 years!

    My main issue with Youtube is that it IS making me dance to silence. Once a video is flagged for copyright it removes my audio. This is my only concern. I just want to dance to the music I was dancing to. I am very upset that charlee wagner's winning performance and literally hundereds of other dancers, pole, aerial, or grounded can dance to it, but I cannot. I am upset that Skin is flagged, I am upset that Wicked Games is flagged. And then all of my videos are silent. Dance is music + personal emotion through the form of physical expression. If you take away the music, half or more than half of the message is lost!
