Hi ladies and gents

 

I have these pole shoes for sale (link below). They are by Fever. Really comfy, just a bit too bit for me. I'm a size 6 but normally get a size 7 in pole shoes, I think these would be better for someone whos normally a size 7 but gets a size 8 pole shoe

Any questions, just ask 🙂

p.s. I am UK based x

I'd love the 2 latest ones if they're still available? Can payapal today x

I remember when I first tried to take my hands off the pole to do the inverted crucifix and it was scary! CapFeb is right in that if you feel uncomfortable try getting someone to spot you until you're able to do it unaided.Trying to get over the mental barrier is often the hardest part so having someone there can help break this down and you'll be hanging upside down as if it's second nature before you know it. Good luck!

I'm considering getting the Alethea Austin Pure Splits dvd but want to know how much they've helped people who have kept doing it for a few weeks or months?

 

How long have you been using the DVD for?

How much progress have you made?

Do you still see progress after a few weeks or is it mainly in the beginning when you first start doing the dvd's?

How often have you kept doing them? 

 

Thank youu x

tarah I've just tried to avoid the whole thing bvy using music by people I know. I've emailed DJ's and singers who are trying to get themselves noticed and want the exposure so it's mutually beneficial 🙂 Youtube is a great way to get music heard and everyone I've asked so far has been happy to provide their music for my pole vids. I always put their website/name/song title etc on the actual video as well 

 

Saves battling with copyright and as I'm a photographer, I want to avoid ripping peoples music -I don't want my photos to be stolen and used without permission so I try to play fair 🙂

no hands cradle, knee hold, allegra and side climb without shoes on all kill me everytime… no problems with yogini though strangely!

ooh I got to poledancingschool drop in classes and i love it! The teachers & students that I've met so far are are amazing and there are great vibes there. Let me know if you go to one of their drop ins and I may well be there too to say hello 🙂

[HannahElizabeth]

thanks for the help ladies, emotioncatch thats what I've been doing too – bringing my body in front first as I agree it seems more secure at the moment.

Thanks for posting the pics Veena, I had never seen how much of a  difference the two leg grips make to the overall shape of the move

 

Chemgoddess you're explaination makes perfect sense and is very helpful, thanks 🙂

 

How do I post a picture on here if it's straight from my desktop? I can try and show you my first try at the cocoon so you can see what I'm doing

[HannahElizabeth]

Shellectra, thanks for mentioning about magnets! I've used them before and it just didn't even cross my mind time, so I put one on yesterday and within 24 hours I really think it's helped 🙂

& Doodlebug thanks for the tips about wrist exercises. I'm UK based too and it's handy to know that the pharmacists can help with things like that as I didn't know that before now! 

Going to try and do some light pole now it's feeling better. Thanks ladies!

[HannahElizabeth]

aha ok, I know the one 🙂 thanks for posting the pic – had seen the move but didn't know what it was called 

[HannahElizabeth]

thanks for your replies girls

 

I find I travel a lot when I go into Scorpio so will try from Pike and see if it helps 🙂 My pole is very short so the less travelling the better… don't want to scrape my toes on the floor (again!) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

[HannahElizabeth]

Thanks girls

 

I dont mind so much about a product leaving visable marks but will keep that in mind if I ever dance under a black light! 

 

I do want to be able to spin as well so might try Tite Grip again first and if it doesn't work for me then dry hands it is! 🙂

 

 

[HannahElizabeth]

aweomse, I was looking for this too. Thanks Veena… now just wish my pole was a bit taller so I could do it properly! You don't seem to travel anywhere near as much as I do in your Scorpio though… is there a trick to less travellling? I do my scprio slightly differently tho so I don't hook my foot at the top and my leg is straight against the pole with no gap

[HannahElizabeth]

Rikkil what is the dragon? 

 

ah Allegra – my nemisis too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

I've also been told that changing the grip so the back of your hand is facing you is another way of doing it. It doesn't suit me personally but it may help someone else https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
