I’m sorry I won’t be able to attend. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif It’s my first and only wedding dress fitting for alterations at Davids Bridal & I couldn’t get any other date. I wanted to come so bad but having to be forced to put off my dress fitting so close to the wedding I had to sign up for the 7’th or otherwise I wouldn’t be able to get my alterations until the week of my wedding and who knows if my dress would even have been done. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

I usually try to work out on my pole every other day- but sometimes it turns into once a week only. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif When I do pole, I try to incorporate some hula hooping as a warm up with some weights then I will move onto a pole warm up then a full on pole workout. I cool down with my exercise ball and some Pole-Yoga (major stretches utilizing the pole) and exercise ball followed by some pole crunches on the floor using my leg on the pole to pull myself up and down. Thats just what I do. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Didn’t Veena just host the first official midwest pole jam back in January…?
I think she named this one the first official for that city/town in Illinios. I read that too at first and thought wait, they just had their first but the creater meant the first for that city in Illinios. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Can’t wait!!!!

Awww yay, glad you are back and have moved your pole back to the living room where you can look at it and think about it. I had a hard time using my pole in my pole room because it wasn’t right there in my face…I keep my xpole up in my master bedroom now which looks right into the living room so I always see it and have to think about it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I find that to be motivating. I also know what you mean about the winter months….you just want to hibernate. I also find that during my birthday month (March) I have no desire to pole and I pretty much become a stranger around here. LOL. Trying to break that habit. Good luck getting back into the groove Roxy! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

(I’ll prob re-tell you this later when I talk to you but I wanted to post it too…)
Hooha Ow…
That "Indian Burn" feeling between those thighs…I found that keeping an ice pack handy really helped ease the burn. After awhile your skin gets used to it and its no longer an issue. There will be a lot of pain in several different contact locations of your body as well as bruising. In time all this will subside, bruises are minimal, and skin burns are no longer. It DOES get better, you just have to be patient.Upper Body Strength
Practice doing bilateral spins to build strength on both arms. I also found just holding myself up in a split grip with legs in an open V pose helped me build a lot of indurance. I would just hold myself as long as I could and after about 2 weeks I really noticed a huge difference with my strength tolerance. Handstands and elbow stands against the pole really helped as well with increasing balance and core strength. Focus on controlling your leg movements in your handstands like someone mentioned the butterfly handstand- it’s a very pretty pose.Pole Sitting tips
Don’t climb up really high at first- just break those thighs in low to the ground then work your way up.
Certain shoes can be really grippy with pole contact and can help you climb up easier.
ICE PACKS between thighs!Good luck and I expect a full progress report…LOL…ttyl~ https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif

Congrats the Alethea, Karol, and Estee! Wish I could’ve been there to watch everyone perform! I’m sure everyone did an amazing job! I too was wondering about Sarah Cretul- thanks gatorgirl for the update! I’m happy to hear she is moving on with her life and going in the direction of something she likes. Hopefully she will come back some day to pole, you never know. Sad to hear she’s leaving but sometimes we just have to do what we feel in our hearts is right for us. Hope everyone enjoys their time in NY and has a safe trip home! Can’t wait to hear the details from everyone when they get back! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

The first moves that WOWed me were the superman, aysha, and cartwheel mount. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif So happy I can actually do all of those now! LOL.

What exactly is it about being around other women dancing that will make him so uncomfortable? Most men don’t find that uncomfortable. Besides the fact he’ll be there watching you and since you said he has never seen you dancing, this will be a first for him! Therefore, I highly doubt he will even notice anyone else but you. He’ll be so intrigued with what you’re doing. This should be very exciting for him to get to share something with you that you love to do so much. I think you’ll be surprised at how much fun you both will end up having and all your doubts and worries will just fade away. When it comes down to it, men just don’t think as much as women do about things. If its not a necessary thought process, then why have it or worry about it? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Sorry you became a victim to perezhilton.com. It is a very lovely pic of you and a great article! I actually didn’t even notice the writing until someone mentioned it in chat and I went back and looked at it again. Like you said, at least he picked a good pic! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif
