My Kids are 2 boys(10 & 5) and 1 girl(1 1/2). All of them play on it. I find no harm in it at all. My 10 year old can do awesome stuff on it. No prior teaching. My 5 year old is good to. My daughter runs around it, but I also will do pole moves and have her in my arms. When I stop and put her down she cries. Personally I don't see a problem with it. It is starting to become popular. Its not distasteful at all and I think its an amazing form of Art. And it shows the true power and strength of the female body and mind. Shows how strong we truly are. My Fiancee tried it and was so sore for next 2 days.
To sum it up I feel its ok and personally I don't see any harm in kids doing it. I think it will make them more prepared for sports later in school. Plus it teaches that if you work hard, you can do amazing things. Just have to work hard. And as for the parents and what they think I feel its not their opinion. But thats my personal feelings.

How old are you?
I am 24 going to b 25 this month.
How long have you been pole-dancing?
Off and on for 2 to 3 yrs. Had to break for Pregnancy and recovery.
What got you into pole dancing?
I actually found out about it while I was dancing. I had to start dancing because my fiancee 30.00/hr wasnt enough to keep us afloat. So I started dancing and I ran into a girl that did really amazing tricks on the pole. I asked her how she did it and she told me its pole fitness. She didn't go into huge detail,but I looked it up later. I fell in love with it. Honestly I feel like if I hadn't learned about this i would not be the person I am today.
Why pole dancing and not something else?
I have never fit in and have always felt like I was a oddball. That and I have been judged my whole life. Bullied and so has Pole Fitness. Its misunderstood and judged. It kind of suited me and I turned out to be pretty good at it once i learned and practiced. Its art and it takes strength.
What makes pole dancing special to you?
It has helped me cope with my feelings and emotions. I had a very terrifying childhood and have always had issues talking about it. But it was always in my head, when I hopped on the pole I didn't have to think. Just dance and it gave me a little comfort and made each day less painful. This allowed for me to let my guard down and embrace my relationship with my man. My whole life I felt like nothing and a nobody bc of how my parents treated me. I come from a very broken family. I lived 19 years of my life in terror and fear. I experienced stuff no child should ever have to go through. I was bullied in school everyday 8th grade till out of High School. I tried to stand up for myself one time and in return for the rest of the year this girl got the whole bus to chant trailer trash. I heard it twice a day everyday. I had no one to talk to about it so I learned to feel no emotion. My parents didn't want to listen to me and if i cried i was weak. I wasn't allowed to cry. When I wasn't bullied at school I was getting yelled at and hit at home. My own mom made me feel so worthless, I wished she had aborted me. When i met my fiancee I was a wreck and very guarded. I didn't let him close to me. Shortly after we met I danced as mentioned above. I got into this and it helped me cope with my past demons. Im not over all of them because there are alot. But it allows me to feel good about my self and Like I am a somebody. Its made me realize that those who have hurt me were in the wrong not me. They had issues not me. That it wasn't my fault they treated me this way. It cleared my head enough to sort through these situations. Pole fitness saved me and my relationship. It means alot to me. I'm obsessed with it. I just wish I had more time. It also helped with the passing of my Aunt here this year. She, my grandma & Grandpa were why I made it thru my childhood and teen years. They were the little light I had in my world of darkness. But their safety and embrace only stretched far enough to provide me financially. As well to give me the love I needed to be able to love those I cherished in my life. My grandmother offered to buy me from my mom because of the life I lived in her care. My mom said no because than she couldnt get child support or food stamps. My grandmother told me one time she went over to my house and my mom had been gone for a couple days. My mom left me with a babysitter and they let me cry in bedroom. My grandma said I was filthy, hadnt been changed or fed. She took me home and my mom showed up 3 days later. Any whos as you can see my life wasnt the best. It has made me strong, but poling has helped me regain my confidence and find myself. Its amazing.
How did you first find out about Studio Veena?
I was looking for pole fitness classes because there were none in my area. It was the first site that popped up. I checked it out and loved the site immediately. Became a paid member that same day.
How much time do you spend on here? (hours a day/week/month)
It varies. Sometimes everyday for an hour. Other times maybe 1 or 2 a week.
How did you choose your tag (AKA User Name)?
Chevaleresse is French for Female Knight. And I am a mommy of three. They sounded good together.

https://www.studioveena.com/users/view/500e246f-3d7c-4f03-bf15-36130ac37250: I'm sorry about your Aunt as well. Thank you for your post. I was considering doing one I just want to find the right song. If I hear certain songs or think about her I do cry. Its hard to allow myself to grieve because my parents told me when I was younger its not ok to cry. It showed weakness. So right now I feel super vulnerable. Thanks for taking time to post a comment. Your words gave me comfort.

I will be getting one, but not till after we move. This pole is amazing, I so wish I was in a house so I could get it.

@ StudioVeena: Thank you, Im sorry for your loss as well. *air Hugs* It still doesnt seem real, but I know it is. We are waiting till my grandma goes and than hopefully moving. Need a fresh start.
-
Thank you. Yea I think if my Aunt would have had a second opinion she may still be alive. Im so glad you made them listen and didnt stop till you knew it was right. You seem very strong and Im glad your overcoming the disease. Its a shame that these doctors have liscenses but dont do their jobs the way they should. They mess up alot here where I am. If your going to be in charge of saving peoples lives or helping them you should have to do the job correctly no matter what. Thanks again for your kind words.

Hunny im bigger boned and curvy. I had two babys and have now started using poling to lose this excess weight n fat.I want to be sexy and feel good about myself. Since I have started doing it seriously I love it. The weight is coming off fast and my strength is better n better. My fiancee said flex the other day. He feels my bicep. He was like omg your arms are huge. They may be bigger than mine. Its kinda flattering though bc I like my guy to know Im equal as him. Pole fitness is amazing. Happy Poleing

I apologize for mentioning Need new Dr. twice. A tad tired.

Sorry I am a tad behind on this. I went to the doctor (Monday) and he gave me antiflamation meds and said I have runners knee(Peoria and chillicothe IL Drs. arent the best). So I have been taking it easy and kinda winging it because I really think my dr is wrong. I cant stay completely off it because I have 3 kiddos I take care of two are home full time. Anywhos Thankfully the fluid is going away. I think I may have Hyper-Extended it.
But I forgot to mention that last year in November I was at a wedding. It was time for Bouquet toss. I got the flowers but I slipped on my skirt when it went under my shoe(really slippery floor) So I ended up falling and all my weight went down on Problem Knee. I fell hard enough to leave a permanent bump in my bottom from my shoe! My dr told me not to worry. I think its time to find a different doctor becsaue he wont even refer me to a specialist (I think its time for New dr, may try Chicago dr. Heard they are good). Could a Chiropractor help with this situation?
@https://www.studioveena.com/users/view/bcc80c30-d89d-11df-ab19-12313b090e12 am definetly going to try to do more stretching. Does you knee fill with fluid also when it flares up?
@ https://www.studioveena.com/users/view/4e731f4e-4dd4-4a93-bc74-53190ac37250 If you could that would be so great. I don't want to do anything that can mess my knee up worse. But I want to still commit to keeping up as much as I can.
@https://www.studioveena.com/users/view/4dc9de3c-cf2c-410b-b8c3-72ab0ac37250 I mentioned pole fitness to him(Because he asked how I hurt it), he just looked dumbfounded. My town is rather small and Judgemental. I see you are from Southern Illinois. Im in Central Il. I thought working through it would be possible, but than I was like no. Thank for your kind words
@https://www.studioveena.com/users/view/5144c8a6-8008-4c57-bcaa-43ed0ac37250 Im sorry that you have to deal with that. Any pain thats constant in my book is bad. Thats awesome though that you dont let it stand in the way of your passion.
Thank You for all your input. Sorry i had to put you all in one post. I will be sure to update. Once again thanks so much for taking time to read this and throw out your advice. I appreciate it
