Oh I wish I could! Maybe when I'm a teacher and have more money. Tickets are just too expensive for me right now. And they seem to be getting more expensive – at least lounge on the farm has.

I’d just like to thank everyone again for your help with my assignment – I got a 2:1! Xxx

I assumed she was 9 in that video, but I couldn’t watch it on iPad so I watched the one where she was 10… All assumed from the number in the title though. Either way she is incredible. I can’t even do half of that and I’m 19! Haha xxx

Wow! She is incredible for being so young. I wish I’d used one of her videos in my assignment now. Xxx

I've been at the current studio since January, but before that had a year of poling, when I bought my pole after about 7 months (being 16/17 I had to wait til my birthday to have enough money), and then had to take a year out as the instructor couldn't pole anymore and I was sorting out getting into uni. xxx

Thank you all.
Firebird – wow, thank you for taking the time to type all that! Yeah, one of the things I’m going to say is that young children like to play most often than not and that many p.e lessons are focused too much on specific things and telling children what to do and what they should be doing (even so much as how to hold something properly) rather than self-expression and play. Allowing children to use a pole as part of play, self-expression and exercise isn’t like that. Yes, they may decide they want to learn a specific thing, but I’ve found pole is very personal. Some people go round one way, some the other, left hand, right hand, speed, ways of getting up off the floor etc.. With very young children they can use the pole to help them walk. Left and right handed-ness shouldn’t be pushed at such a young age and being given a bat to hold in a certain hand in a certain way in p.e lessons isn’t good and with pole they can approach it with either hand and with both hands equally.Anyone else?

When I started, my instructor at the time said that you have to go through every swear word..once you’ve used the worst one you should be doing it! Basically (if you don’t swear) you have to push through it hurting, once you’re there it doesn’t hurt and, as long as you continue to do it fairly regularly, it won’t hurt as much each time and you will be more comfortable pushing through any pain quickly. The more you pause or back out the more painful it is. Xxx

On top I wear a cheap non-underwired sports bra (not good to jump in but keeps the girls under wraps in inverts!) and then a strappy/tank top, usually the one I bought from the studio.
On bottom I either wear the pole shorts the studio sells, black stretchy boxers from primark (honestly boxers are the best, cover everything even doing the splits and even if you have a large bum like me!) or some waist high shorts I bought from Topshop.
Anyone looking for shorts for a larger bum that covers well but still gives movement and skin to grip, try looking for men’s boxers in the right fabric. Xxx -
I’m not doing a study on it, more just researching and creating an argument. There have been studios that have started classes for children (I’ve heard of one in Canada and one in the uk).
I’m using the red lobster video in the assignment, as it was this video that sparked my interest in the subject 2 years ago. I will have to have a look for any more videos and maybe try to contact veena herself about it.
Mitzy blue, thank you, I’m glad your sister is feeling better and has found an exercise she enjoys (I felt the same way until I found pole)

Going by pet/road name I’d be (going with first female pet, we had a gazillion male pets when I was born) Pepsi Drove!
My nan’s name was marjory, but here nickname was Peggy. My birth flower is a rose, so that’s what I’m going with for the moment. I have no middle name so can’t do that one.
At the moment I’m choosing between Peggy rose and Pepsi rose. I like my actual name – Carys, but its not really pole dancer name material. Xxx
