    Warm up and light stretching in the beginning and more agressivea stretching at the end of class works best for me. My muscles, ligaments and joints seems more open and receiptive to being pushed then.

    Hi Jeng. I live and teach pole in Sacramento. Sacramento Pole Dance Studio. There are advance classes every day except Sundays. I teach 7pm Tuesdays. Hopefully you can come.

    Find another studio who is caring and supportive.

    I'm not a certified teacher but I'm passionate about pole. I'm consumed with it day and night. When I teach, my goal is to empower women and boost their confidence. I'm not there to intimidate or assume I'm better than anyone else. We have 9 poles in the studio and inevitably you have people at all levels of fitness, strength and abilities when they enter as beginners and more so with the advance, the gaps can be huge. I stick with the basics and add on for those who are ready for the next challenge. If students asks me to "show off" I'll do it but only by request.

    Unfortunately, I've witnessed teachers who show off and they do it deliberately and I think it's a shame because it makes others feel inferior and less than. I've seen first time students stand there, mouth open with this look of defeat. Why do you want clients who pay good money to feel like dopes? I don't get it.
