Hello moguto from china! I was born and raised in china, moved to north America 13 years ago. I’m not even sure the small town I grew up in has a pole studio… I go back and visit every 3 years or so since my parents and family are here with me. From the videos i watched in youku.com, The style they teach seems quite different comparing to north America- it seems that heels and boots are necessity for pole classes.;)

Mine tend to do the same thing on static… that's partially why I leave it on spin mode now. The screws just tend to untight themselves after I do a few spins on static mode. Especially when I hold the pole too tight in spins.

Filming videos is easier because you could just dance on spinning pole, it catches all of angles until your pole stops spinning. Static pole is challenging, I would think a mirror behind camera is helpful. For taking static photos, I have to use static pole, which gives me more control for position I end up in. You can do this yourself if you use your camera with timer setting, mine goes up to 10 seconds, which is just enough for me to run to the pole, and get into the certain pose, then hold and wait for camera to flash… =D

I think you can do it yourself… Although I have not repaired shoes myself. I would open the padding a bit, just so I can sand the surface, apply some crazy glue, stick the strap back in. should probably sit some heavy weights for hours on it afterwards.

I had wrist problem 2 years ago due to not enough warm up before poling. I stayed off my pole for 2 months as advised by doctors but 2 months later my wrist was still not better and I was getting depressed from no pole. It even bothered me when I use keyboard during the day at work, and I am a computer programmer. What really helped was when I started to do light workout on pole again, such as doing spins on static pole. I would make sure I had enough warm up and do lots of wrist flexes before attempting, and I was amazed to find out after each workout my wrist felt warm and painless. Wearing a wrist band might be a good idea during pole workout, but I would suggest not wearing one during the day, because I think the body tend to comfortably adapt to the environment. The more assistance you are giving your body to achieve the result, the less hard your body would work by itself. But do lots of wrist exercises during the day whenever you get a chance. Veena has lots of them. Good luck, hope your wrsit heal soon!

In theory, all iPhone apps should work on iPad as well, but not the other way, iPad apps that stated for iPad only will not run on iPhone. IPhone apps running on iPad will not show as full screen, but can ne scaled to 2x the size as it’s shown on iPhone, however it looks a little pixelated.

@Lyme, If you are talking about Joel, (poledancefan), he is actually 50… LOL, he is such an awesome guy, never met him, but he inspired me to pole from day one! He used to post his progress on YouTube every few days or so, very persistant and determined! And he even made his own pole from a metal conduit from Home Depot, what a handy man!

I also had wrist problems When I first began poling due to not enough warm up time before going into inverts. I had a ganglion cyst formed on my wrist, it was painful even using the computer keyboard sometimes and I was suggested not to pole for a while. But I felt depressed without pole for a few months, and my wrist pain does not go away either, I decided to pole again with plenty of warmup, and using the wrist a little bit more each day. Surprisingly, the warmth from exercising the wrist actually made my ganglion cyst disappear and my wrist heal eventually! So my suggestion is do not stop poling, but just take it easy, it will get better day by day.

MemberJune 2, 2011 at 10:27 am in reply to: Major leg flexibility imbalance.. will my hips go out of alignment?I have the same problem, left leg is more flexible than right, I think it’s due to the fact that I practice certain moves solely on one side of pole instead of the other, now im focusing on practicing on the side that I’m not used to. But I don’t think your hips would go out of balance anyways.

If your video plays well on your computer, it should play well in your web browser. If it constently skips frames when playing in your web browser, might be because your graphics card is too slow to handle that.
