Just curious if any Veener’s out there are doing the splits challenge with old hamstring pulls or strains. I’ve got a few old owwies and wonder if splits is something I can do or should I give up on that dream?

I’m in.

I can relate. My pole space is less than ideal and not a lot of space either plus it’s in the garage. Need I say more. It’s not all that of a big deal unless I have no way to heat garage then it’s a major prob.
I’m hoping for a propane heater for Christmas:D -
Yay! Monkey bars here I come 😛

Thanks Veena for keeping it real. 😀

Runemist34 my pole is powder coated. You mentioned the pole being warm. I hadn’t thought of that. I practice in the garage and unless its summer warm isn’t a word I would use to describe it. Plus you mentioned my body being warmed up enough. Yes but I think not enough. Skin not super warm.
When even tops of feet have no stickiness I know theres a problem. I will give your suggestions a try. I would rather not use grip aids if I don’t have to. Thanks heaps. D.M. -
I agree with Cherished. Alethea Austin’s floorwork d.v.d. (all of her d.v.d.’s) are awesome. I also think StudioVeena’s lessons are equally awesome 😀
Soooo… maybe both? -
I checked out Jamille's dvd's on amazon and I purchased vol.1 thru vol.3 . I figure that will keep me crazy busy and they have strengthening exercises for pole. Cool. I can't wait till they get here. Novo.

Thanks Runemist34. I think I will check out Jamillas dvd's. It sounds like she is pretty thorough in both strength training and explanation of moves. That helps me out alot since my body is a slow learner. Lol.
Novo.

Oh my gosh. I was trying with arms fully extended and just using my arms. I am definitely trying it with bent arms and leg power. I don't know why but I just had it in my head that I should be able to with just arm power. I'm trying your suggestions tomorrow morning . I bet I am able to. Thanks so much for the helpful tips:)

thanks everyone. i will try to remember what you both said when i am poling. just frustrated with myself. funny thing is my huz can swing around the pole like it takes no effort at all and look at me like "Why can't you do this? It's easy." Color me jealous;)

Anyway, please take the time to tell me your "Pole-Story"!
How old are you? I am 44 years old or young depending on your perspective;)
How long have you been pole-dancing? I have been pole-dancing about 6 months.
What got you into pole dancing? Youtube. I would watch vids of strippers poledancing and booty poppin' etc… and I was taken with the raw sexuality of their dances.
Why pole dancing and not something else?/What makes pole dancing special to you? Why poledancing? The above mentioned raw sexuality and freedom of it. What makes poledancing special to me is it breaks down my inhibitions and allows me to express myself in a way that would probably never be expressed otherwise. Plus,It is alot of fun!
How did you first find out about Studio Veena? How much time do you spend on here? (hours a day/week/month) I looked online for lessons and this site came up. I spend maybe 20 minutes 2 or 3 times a week. My life is chaotic lately so not much free time.
How did you choose your tag (AKA User Name)? I choose to use my real name partly because a pole name seemed unnatural and forced for me and it just feels right for me at this time.

I'm so sorry you had to put your dog to sleep. I had to put my dog to sleep years ago and I still feel bad about it at times. It never leaves you but it does get a whole lot better with alot of time. I know it doesn't feel like it but " this too will pass".
sending hugs,Donna.

I just now uploaded the pic/video to my account here on Studio Veena. Enjoy.
