    Try contacting X pole customer service they might be able to send you some? I had a quick look online at a few DIY stores and couldn't see anything similar to what you need.

    Lizziepole – http://www.urbanyoga.co.uk/ sell onzie! It's expensive but I think it'll be worth it so I'm saving my pennies for some

    I LOVE the bake off!! I think you should definitely include it in your application, although perhaps put pole fitness instead of pole dance – may encourage a more open mind set!

    Good luck with the application x

    Practice lifting off the ground  without stepping round into a pole hold rather than jumping, then practice one step round the pole to push off before lifting up into a pole hold, then try push off a little more etc etc. I now find that I can't get enough spin sometimes!

    November 29, 2012 at 4:56 pm in reply to: CHRISTMAS TREE SPLITS CHALLENGE AGAIN? I am in!

    I have a confession…stretching has completely fallen by the wayside this past few weeks https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif no excuses I just didn't stretch. I doubt I'll have my splits by christmas now.

    How is everyone else doing?

    Woohoo! Congratulations 😀
    It took me way longer to climb than that so it's a great accomplishment in 3 weeks!

    Steffie – I use the palm yeah (just had to try it to see ha!)! I can do the thumb to wrist thing too but it's not as easy as it used to be!

    Brilliant thread!

    I have pretty flexible shoulders and can put sun cream on my whole back without any assistance lol, it gets a few funny looks on holiday! I can also bend the tip of each finger backwards almost 90 degrees (my mum can do it to 90 on each finger)

    I haven't had a photoshoot but I'd probably take a couple of outfits in case one isn't photographing well or isn't working out as planned 🙂

    I’ve been stretching intermittently, had one amazing session where I was only about an inch on my good side then got the flu and had to take 2 weeks off 🙁 lost any real progress I’d made!

    I didn’t measure my starting point but I have pictures, need to take some more this week!

    All I want for Christmas is…https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_santa.gif

    1. A Lululemon/Onzie sports bra but that looks unlikely now 🙁 I'd love some more shorts too from either of those companies. Or Mika yogawear! Oh the list is endless…

    2. Those gorgeous neon pink Pleasers (but 6 inch not sure I could handle the 7 inchers ;-p)

    3. (I'm with you on this one Brynne) a pull up bar! I've never been able to do a traditional pull up (even when I was rock climbing for 4-6 hours a week) and for some reason I feel like I want to be able to lol

    4. I'd love a new pole but that really is very highly unlikely to happen, and I don't have the room for it lol!

    zoey – jagerstore.co.uk ship Pleaser shoes from within the UK and their prices are some of the most reasonable I've seen, everythingpoledancing.com also sells shoes and a few items of pole clothing too.

    November 12, 2012 at 7:21 am in reply to: Grip problems!

    I use tiny amounts of liquid climbing chalk to counteract sweat but I layer  it over mighty grip so my hands are sticky but dry. It's important that the mighty grip is tacky before you put the chalk on though.

    If I'm really sweaty I use mighty grip, then tite grip and then maybe a little chalk on top.

    Elektra – that Cramer tuf skin looks like strong stuff!

    November 7, 2012 at 3:10 pm in reply to: Confused on people using multiple pole names….

    I'm Debss on here and Debss "Veenamember" Smith on my pole FB lol, It looked weird not having a surname so I added one lol! My profile pictures are the same on both too. I don't have a youtube account 'cause I don't really have any videos yet 😛

    I've got people on the pole fb that I think are from the forum but I pretty much accepted anyone as long as they had pole-related info on their profile.
