You are so sweet!!! I have only done small competitions around the area, but I want to be capable of sooo much more!!! It is hard with some people on this sight and all over youtube… so much to compare to… even though I shouldn’t be doing that LOL
-
I would also love to skype if anyone is down!
-
I would love if more people would use the video chat! Pole jams are my fix when I can’t make it to a studio!

I love skype jams!!!

Wow I can’t believe I’ve missed this post!!! My world had been completely turned upside down even to the pint where the thought of poling depressed me… I was opening up a studio with some friends, and like most partnerships, they fall apart… Not only did I lose my closest friends (who ended up not being who I thought they were to begin with) but I also felt like pole now was tainted with all this heart ache as I lost my dream of owning a studio! I lost strength and stopped making progress but had to remind myself that my dream was to wow people with what pole can be and with the strength and grace I thought I would learn and show, not to simply own a building with poles in it. I am finally ( and I mean literally this week) really trying again and actually having fun with pole again… This really can be a beautiful journey and I’m back to wanting to be the best poler I can be but also enjoying the strength and empowerment that it originally brought me!!! Sorry for the rant but thank you for the post! I forget how much pole really speaks to my heart and this was a great way to remind me!!!

Also strengthening the muscle as opposes to only stretching so leg lifts or stand facing your pole tie an elastic band around ankle and pole and pull your leg backwards it will make ur butt look amazing too!!! 🙂
-
Any advice you get I could use too I have been working on this for too long and it is angering me too!!! I am about where you are as well! I started shifting my focus to deadlifting thinking it would help build more muscle to hold better but I don’t know of it is helping any…

I thought the chatroom disappeared I am so glad you posted this!! LOL do you still do the video chat?
-
I stopped taking mine down… our landlord probably thinks I am nuts especially now that we completely converted the front room into a studio so there is really no other explanation LOL
-
I love that I am stealing that and can’t wait to see what reactions I get!!!

Good advice megsmith!!! I was lucky that I took care of mine when it was a slight strain because I hear the horror stories all the time and hamstrings take forever to heal… Mine was very minute and it took almost a month!
-
I am not an expert by far I had a slight strain in my hamstring and if I describe my pain I’m hoping it will help you decipher… I had pain not when stretching but when I would stand up and bring my heel to my butt… Almost like warming up for running and kicking your heels to your butt to warm up… So I know that is a sign of a strain… If you need ideas for PT I still have all of that info 🙂

Good words poledanceromance!!!! I have been struggling with the stigma of pole for a long time to the point where I almost lost my job because of it! My husband struggled but he is now so supportive but only because we discussed and worked through it together I hope the same will happen for all others going through the same!
