Well it took me about a year since I first looked into it, but I finally ordered the pole aria attachment and gave it a whirl at my new pole studio.

When I first started pole I could only hang for an hour class once a week. Then I moved up to 2x a week. And then I started hooping, and yoga. After a while I added zumba, bootcamps, weights & plyo, and aerial silks to my routine too. I now pole for myself 3-4 hours a week, as well as teach 8-10 hours of pole classes plus private lessons. I also do hooping for cardio and the occasional gym day too.
I prefer to have 90 minutes minimum to workout now, 15 min warm up, 60 min pole, 15 min cool and stretch.

It's amazing to look back at this old thread from 2010 and think that this was the very first pole show I ever attended. I was full of excitement to be around other polers and see the range of their performance styles. I am happy to announce that this year, I will be performing at the 6th Annual Michelle Mynx Extravaganza 2013 in St Louis, Mo! So excited to be a part of the growing pole community here in St Louis, and I look forward to a night of talented performers doing what they love.

Hey there! I wrote up an article about what factors to look in to when deciding to buy a pole. Check out my guide, and let me know if you have any other questions. =)

I will be attending the Midwest Pole Dance Competition 2013! It's my first time attending a big pole convention and I am beyond excited! I own Pink Lemon Studio in St Louis Mo, and we just opened a month ago. So ready to rub elbows with amazing pole idols, watch brilliant performances and just generally be 100% immersed into pole for the whole weekend. I got VIP tickets so I can be front and center for the shows!

Right now my dream move is a phoenix. Started working on it more seriously, just a few weeks ago, so maybe I can make it reality!

Ok, a request for all of you who own a pair of very long legwarmers, like mid thigh high. Would you mind telling us the measurements of your legs, or maybe posting a pic with you wearing them? I've been debating whether to buy some online, but I'm concerned that maybe these leg warmers are more designed for ballerinas with more slender legs and they would be too tight on me. I would like some that stay up, are slightly stretchy material, and fit my thighs without feeling constricted. I have searched a ton of sites but none of them ever mention the diameter size of these leg warmers, only the length. And I know that one size does not fit all!

I shared this video on facebook and was pleased to get really positive feedback on her stunning performance. She is a real powerhouse, and already possesses remarkable showmanship and a distinct style all her own. I truly hope she continues to pole, I have a feeling we will all be watching her growth with admiration. I would love to teach pole to children, can hardly wait to see what the next generation will push the boundaries of pole to!

My Pole Story:
How old are you?
– 29 years old
How long have you been pole-dancing?
– 3 years
What got you into pole dancing?
– I wrote a blog about this, but in short summary, I tried a class, loved it and never stopped going.
http://pinklemonstudio.com/why-pole-dancing-part-1/
Why pole dancing and not something else?/What makes pole dancing special to you?
– It's the first exercise that I've never gotten bored it. It stimulates my mind, faces me to confront and conquer my fears, and it makes me feel purposeful. It has changed me as a person, it has changed my life, and it has affected how I react to the world around me. If I'm not talking about it, watching it, or doing it, I'm probably dreaming about it. Pole is special because of the community, we are all pole sisters in this endeavor, and we are all proud of each other.
How did you first find out about Studio Veena?
– I found SV shortly after my first class. I was watching Tara Karina and her comments mentioned she learned online. I made an account and I've been addicted ever since.
How much time do you spend on here? (hours a day/week/month)
– At least a few hours every week, usually every few days. Sometimes it goes a week or two when life gets crazy, but I try to keep connected here. I wish I had more time to make videos!
How did you choose your tag (AKA User Name)?
– I've changed it twice now lol. I've always been told I "had my head in clouds", I'd rather think I have "stars in my eyes"…
Please feel free to use my information. Thank you for choosing pole as your project subject, and I hope this helps!
