I think sometimes because they are SO advanced instructors forget the beginner moves and how difficult they really are when you first start poling! It’s no excuse for poor instruction but simply telling them that you are struggling or asking for an alternative easier move/variation of that move might remind them of your level.
In one of the classes I have been to the instructor has never mentioned putting matts under your pole, but I always do and so others have followed. Sometimes you can be a good teacher too 🙂 -
I have days like that – especially when im poling at home..at least you know on a good day you can do better

I wish you luck….England is great, except for the SHI*T weather…

Side effects may include: nausea, vomiting, hot flushes and sexual arousal. In men it may cause spontaneous erections. It has been linked to mole changes, so if users notice any change in moles they should consult their GP.

After achieving my life goals ‘so far’ Uni degree, job I wanted, nice boyfriend, own place etc etc I was a bit bored..(not being ungrateful) now I’m not bored or fidgity-I have something to do for myself whenever I want and I love that, I feel content 🙂 I can power the pole to achieve a new goal or I can just chill out and enjoy what I can do 🙂

With regards to the tip and dump..I also struggled with this for a long time, one person noticed my hands were too high, they should be by your face, no higher. Maybe check that?
When I first started poling I was taught to invert incorrectly and I had to go back to tuck and dump (chopper) for about a month before I inverted again. I was adamant in my own pride that I wasn’t doing it wrong but I was and needed to learn the chopper then invert from there. It didn’t take as long as I expected but it was frustrating! -
Yeah my pole slipped when I first put it up-I was scared of breaking my ceiling so didn’t tighten enough. Also had poles at studio I go to that are fixed permanently to the ceiling slip on my from the bottom lol! I was stretching using pole and ended up on my bum with the pole still in my hands!

Debs, I do grip right at the top of my thigh , so much so that my bikini line is exposed (another reason why I dont like doing it!!) …perhaps I need to shift it down…hmmm, I didnt even think about that, thanks Debs, Ill have another do and try it lower. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

My work colleagues know.. I figured that Anyone who works with street sex workers has to be open minded enough to accept I pole! 🙂

CAR is my nemesis, when I first started poling I could do it.. Even lay ack from it.. Now the pain is SO gutting that I totally avoid it. My instructor tells me off for not practicing it to get over the pain again. Ah well
never mind… It’ll come back when it has to! I’m not bothered.. 🙂 -
Ah ok… Phew, I bruise easily but not THAT easily!!
-
sensual….I bruise pretty easily and my gums bleed but dentist says they are fine…you have me worried…like what else could it be???

Ok I just watched this and my first reaction was 'I would not be letting my 8 year old do that' not because its pole dancing, as I agree, kids dont associate it with sexy and she was not doing a sexy routine, but merely for fear of her falling from the pole and breaking her neck! Kids have NO FEAR!! And the way she throws herself into that routine demonstrates that.
My fella said, it is only the same as wanting my child to do gymnastics and whilst I agree, gymnastics is a recognised and regulated sport, instructors are accredited and have to meet professional standards particularly with regards to health and safety which is paramount – as a parent you can check the instructors credentials so to speak, which I am not sure you could be so sure of with pole instructors? I know that wouldnt prevent your child from breaking their neck but at least its harm reduction.
Just a thought….
She does look awesome though, fair play to the girl 🙂

I'm a street sex worker support worker for the NHS…Needless to say, my job makes me thankful that my addiction is poling and nothing worse…. 🙂
