    Handstand deadlifted against the pole! I can do it with the wall but I get a mental block when I’m at the pole 🙁
    I’m also in a battle with my aerial invert, sometimes it’s there and others it isn’t!

    If it wasn't my moving house date I'd be up for it too, like Lizzie said, 4 hours for £60 amazing!

    I tend to wear my pole gear to class under my clothes so all I have in my bag is:
    A bottle of water
    Deodorant
    A comb, hair ties and bobby pins
    My studio's moves cards – little laminated cards with each levels moves on and a box for signing them off (Silver, Gold and Platinum level)
    My purse/phone/iPod/keys
    And my little bag of grip aids! Liquid chalk, the two types of mighty grip and tite grip (I've become to the go to person for grip aid lol, they call it my bag of white powder)

    I really need to start putting a notebook in my bag, I'm constantly writing mental lists of things I want to try and then forgetting them 🙁

    I'm with Raven, it's a pole goal of mine to visit Taylors Retreat! You're so lucky to have it as your home studio Amiloo 😀 it's gorgeous.

    OK wow lol, I can sacrifice spinning for the chance to play on taller poles! I'm 5ft 8 and I only get 2 climbs out of the ones at my studio and 1.5 at home 🙁
    Just to mention, I would ask my studio but it's a full time dance studio so they have kids lessons all day Saturday and I think Sunday too.

    If there's room for another pole there Lizzie then I could bring my X-pert and we can have a spinning 45mm option too? Trying to figure out how we can have the best of both worlds!

    Any more news on this? I think a couple of people from my studio would be interested in coming too

    lol! I was just thinking the same thing Lyme – maybe that's why they're so expensive??

    What an idiot, I completely forgot about Sweet Vixen Couture http://www.sweetvixencouture.com , I think they're based in the UK now. I haven't bought anything from there yet but when I have money I'll probably get some shorts 🙂

    I've mainly got my pole wear from sports direct, got a nice pair of nike shorts from there and also a nike sports bra that I LOVE (it doesn't squish my boobs for once, it enhances them woohoo lol!).

    I got a pair of adidas shorts from ebay ( http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Adidas-Womens-Supernova-Black-Fitted-Running-Gym-Shorts-Ladies-Fitness-P41059-/110863282799?pt=UK_Sporting_Goods_Sports_Clothing_LE&var=&hash=item5f7c33c7b1 same ones as these from the same seller) they're perfect for pole & I'm tempted to buy another pair.

    Other than that I keep an eye on topshop, new look or urban outfitters for croptops, coming up to summer they'll probably have a few in.

    urbanyoga.co.uk sells onzie but it's quite expensive still 🙁 was hoping to get some for xmas from my boyfriend but the hints fell on deaf ears!

    I really need more pole shorts though! I don't wear shoes so I'm no help there, but from what I've found jagerstore.co.uk is the cheapest place online for them in the UK.

    I'm planning on coming 🙂 not sure whether I'll bring a friend or not though because it would depend on her work schedule.

    Is there room to put up another pole? I could bring my 45mm Xpert with me if there is (I'll have a car by then YAY!)

    Also, my studio's having a Jess Norris workshop one weekend in April (I'm not sure if it's open to other students or not, sorry :-/ I'm not sure a date's even been set yet!) so hopefully they won't end up being the same weekend!

    I used a black swimming costume with side cut outs for a performance recently and tit-taped it in place lol. it worked really well!
    I wore a pair of black seamless primary boy shorts over the top so I wouldn’t flash anything ha. Asos had quite a few costumes in stock last time I looked, could also try river island/new look too
