It’s not in London but out in the country kinda near Gatwick airport. Its a beautiful old barn converted into a pole studio with super tall poles. You can pay a small fee and jam there on the weekends. Or I think they have classes during the week through The Pole Studio. http://www.thepolestudio.co.uk/polefitnessdorking.html. Here is a pic of me on the super tall poles. 🙂

My flexed foot stopped flexing ever so slightly and I would have landed on my head but instinct took over and I grabbed the pole with one hand and kinda with my butt long enough to avert disaster. It turned me off that move for a while but I got back up and tried it again next class (not on spin) until I felt comfortable enough to try again on spin. Then I put it in a routine for competition and practiced it over and over again. Now it's one of my favorites!

I travel with my Dry Hands all the time. Just make sure it it in a clear plastic bag with any other liquids you may carry on.

They are super easy to set up and take down but are not as stable as X-pole stage poles. The base is very light and can come up off the ground on moves with lots of force like shoulder mount or back grab spin. If you want to "dance" the base tends to get in the way as it's plastic like a gym mat or without it you have to step over the spindles of the base. It is super portable and fun to set up in odd places, but I wouldn't recommend it for daily practice or any performance where you might want to wear heels.

Last year cross knee release was considered 3 point of contact but cross ankle was considered only 2.
