    Thank you @ Lindalu! Going to check it out now. 🙂

  • I stained the concrete on my house downstairs myself because we live on the river and it sometimes floods! It took me almost an entire 3 days to do 2 rooms. It smelled badly!! The result is gorgeaous- but it was such an incredible amount of work. I couldnt imagine poling on it however. It is hard hard unforgiving concrete! Also, you have to seal it really good because the concrete is so pourous. I wouldnt want to clean up doggy accidents on it even being sealed!

    I am sooo happy! Got a few of my samples in.. I also ordered the itac  pole cleaner from Bad Kitty- really hesiatated because of the price. I am SO glad I did. My titanium pole has been so incredibly slick for me. I have been so frustrated cause I cant do even half of the moves I do at the studio at home on this pole- One clean w the itac pole cleaner and I was sticking like crazy! I also got my mighty grip sample. LUV it! I was about ready to sell this pole! I bought the 45mm titanium- then ended up using 50mm brass at the studio (luv). Now I see hope for us. 🙂

    @ Emotioncatcher- I bought my tite grip samples here:

    http://www.tite-grip.com/buynow.html 

    I havent gotten them yet, so I cant say how it compares to mighty grip yet (for me)

    I also didnt see anything about tite grip 2 lavendar but would also love to try it if anyone has a link….

    I cant wait to try the tite grip on my feet as well!.

    I just went and ordered all the samples and I am going to experiment to see what works best for me! I also tried the vinegar and found myself to be even more slippery! So far I have only tried dry hands- it works for about a trick or two, then I need to reapply right away and I dont like the dry chalky feeling it gives me. Weird, I get dry and have experienced blisters on my palm- but can still sweat and slip through it right away too! I cant wait for all the goodys to arrive and see what works best for me. I also have a sweaty foot that  drives me wild! lol

    Hopefully TODAY I will be able to go try out your tips! Going to watch your video now @emotioncatcher and then off to your blog @amy, @veena- I am so dumb!

My daughter has been in the hospital- which is 2 cities away from my home, I have 2 other kids and my hubby is out of towm so I have had 0 time to pole or anything this last week. Today is a new day!

    I got mine too finally! Has everyone already started a committment? If not, we should post a starting video and track our progress w video once per week and hold each other accountable.

    I ran through them both once so far. I have never been able to the splits so if this works, I will be more than ecstatic!

    I dream of being able to do pencil to bow and arrow and land in a split on the ground

    WOW!~ That was like super hero strength! Dont even know how that is possible! Thanks @emotioncatcher for sharing. I favorited.
     

    @organic angel, you are making me sad! I was 103 when got pregnant w my first baby (was 23) , now after 3 kids and 16 years I am 140. I work and work and never move from here! (im 38 now)

    – ps my first 2 I had at home, homebirths- at 42 weeks (pure torture), my 3rd my blood pressure was high so had to be induced in the hospital. My doc said I was full term at 37 weeks and brought me in

    My son was 9.4lbs at 42 weeks, my last daughter was 8.1 @ 37 weeks, she would have been a monster left in! lol

    Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy. I am sure you will be back and strong as ever in no time!

    October 14, 2011 at 6:04 am in reply to: Need creepy music suggestions

    My cousin is in a band called Crimson Glory- they are not really popular in the states, but are overseas. They just got back from tour inGermany etc…

    A lot of the music is very spooky and dark,

     this one is crimson glory- lost reflections- love it dark, sexy, mysterious, slow for dark sultry dances… the art work in the video is also dark spooky. It crescendos to coincide with some more powerful moves around 3:05.. even says something about Halloween, then it kinda dies down, could melt away, spooky laughter. You should listen!

    October 13, 2011 at 5:42 am in reply to: Blackout During Pole Class- What causes this?

    I agree, get checked out by your doctor! Have them check you for orthostatic hypotension. Sudden changes in your body position can cause a  fall in your blood pressure causing you to balck out. It can be related to simply just not being hydrated enough. Make sure you stay very hydrated and change position slowly giving your body enough time to adjust before moving on. Get checked out thouroughly to be safe. Blacking out from the pole would not be good!
