    HUMOUS!!!!  You can buy it or make it (with chick peas).  It's got lots of protein!  Plus, it's fantastic on toast or even better to dip veggies in.

    My grocery store sells lots of different kinds too (sweet chillie and lemon & coriander).

    They even sell them in small pots for lunches.   If you make your own, you'll need to blend the chick peas up, but you could make a larger batch and then put them into smaller containers and bring in to work.

    I sometimes even dip chicken pieces (non-breaded) into the humous if Im feeling like I really want protein!!!

  • x-pole uk website, but you're right… I think I was thinking of UK prices = US ones for a minute… ooops!

  • While I appreciate that you spent a lot on them, you can get the DVDs for less brand new 🙁  I'm out in the UK anyways so i couldn't really buy them off you.

     

    Best of luck finding a buyer.

    Hang in there!  I'm happy to hear some good news in there.  Take one day at a time, and pole your heart out if it helps you get through this.  Plus, those are awesome moves you've accomplished 🙂

    Yeah, I mean I still dane to it in my living room, but I wanted to eventually dance either at a showcase or competition (when I'm good enough to do the tricks I want to do in the song). 

    Oh well.  I got lots of other ones in mind 🙂

    Hmmm… maybe if I"m good enough, I'll replicate the dance perfectly.  HAHAHAHAHAHA!  🙂  In my dreams… in my dreams…

    I love it!  Amazing!  The one thing I dislike is that I've always wanted to do a dance to that Florence & Machine song.. and now I feel like i can't 😡

     

    🙂  Way to go Natasha!

    Thanks so much for this.  I'm onto this move now 🙂  I can do an extended butterfly and the d-shape in split grip… I'm reallly trying to get this move 🙂

    I will try to remember to hang off the top arm!

     

    How do you get into the split grip?  From cruicifix and then lower the legs?  (I always try from a D).

    @ Polegrrrrl – amazing perspective.  THanks sooo much for sharing your frustrations at working hard and not being able to claim it to the full.

    @horsecrazy – hahahahaha!  I'm glad we're on the same page with the R.E.S.P.E.C.T. (written like it should be sung!).  Yeah, I'd be mortified.  I'm a prude probably because I hold the human body to be quite a sacred thing.  And yes, I only want ONE man to see my bits (although I guess a doctor might also…).  Hopefully I'll find him someday 🙂  (Some people say I'm traditional, I'd like to think I'm revolutionary by using my sexual freedom to abstain until I have my permit – a wedding ring!  Tehe!).

    I have a question for everyone:  can you be a stripper without being talented at pole?  (Ie just have someone who needs "easy" money).  I guess it's possible. 

    I think the thing that annoys me about the whole issue is that when I tell people I do pole FITNESS (I don't dare use the word dance!), they still think of sleasy clubs.  The thing is most of these people haven't been in a club (nor have I actually), but what the media shows (eg in CSI or in movies) are women dancing next to a pole and the occasional spin.  It's frustrating because obviously there is WAY more, and I'd like to believe based off the women I know that work the clubs that these women are way more talented.

    At the same time it wouldn't surprise me if most stuck to spins and climbs because they are working like 8hr shifts and I'm dead after 5 min of pole.  🙂  But still, when I watch a show it has a clip of pole dancing I'm always frustrated by what I see!
