I like both and I love dubstep and pole but with this song I prefered the rock remix. 🙂 But I think it will kick ass either way 🙂

Love this idea!

Starting with some veeners, well you all inspire me in one way or another in many ways and I wish I could mention all of you but that will take too long so are a few.

I love watching Pixie Lou's videos, she's just awesome in pole, dance and her roller skating video was amazingsauce! Her flexy and pole progress just wow me all the time.

Luvlee is another one I love to watch, she's super dedicated in her training and is always so happy, she got that positive energy that really shines through in her dance.

Aerial Amy is amazing in so many ways too! she spread such a positive message about pole and represents female empowerment to me. She is intellegent, strong willed, well spoken and always seems to say what so many of us our feeling in exactly the right words.

For pole stars, my crush is totally Jenyne Butterfly! 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=waIuhfoTMv8 <–this was one of the first pole videos I saw of what pole dancing can really be, and it is still one of my favourites. I love her lines, her story telling in dance and her grace. She makes pole look absolutly effortless and beautiful.If I ever get the chance, i will jump at taking a workshop with her.

There are so many women and men that I admire in the pole community but those are a few off the top of my head. 🙂

I love this idea! The flexibility in having different versions of the flag makes this more attainable to many! I would love to participate!

I live in northern Canada so I'm poling in the cold weather about 60-70% of the year. If the room is too cold, try getting a sapce heater and put it in the room before hand. Also do like the ladies suggested and do lots of cardio in the room. Your body heat will help wartm up the space and you! I usually climb my pole a few times on each side to help warm the pole up too. 🙂

just finished day 6! I really like that its introducing me to stretching and exervcise video lessons that I may have never clicked on otherwise. I have had to skip one day so far due to life but I just started up again then next day. 🙂 I'm really enjoying it so far and am excited to see how adding this to my pole routine will affect my strength and flexibility. 🙂

ahaha too good

Happy Birthday!!!!

Lots of great thoughts here, just wanted to add that I have experienced lots of days where i can't do anything on the pole and my muslces are feeling weak. I took the suggestions to rest, make sure i'm getting enough sleep and to up my protein intake after workouts. It made a huge difference for me. I can always tell when I am bad and not taking care of my body, I see less progress and my muscles are often sore and tired. Healthy diet, sleep and rest days are so important, i wish I had known that years ago!
