Well its my first time in NYC too, so I plan on just getting lost and having to sleep outside in a box or something https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I’ll give you a piggyback ride Sissy if you need it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif I’m super excited about my workshop but HATING the travel alone factor…… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_pale.gif

Cool. Can you pick me up at my hotel and drive me to the theatre? LOL

Are you going to the competition V?

[SissyBuns]

I was trying to get into this from a Gemini lastnight and couldn’t figure out what the hell I was doing wrong. Duh. I need to do it from a Scorpio.

*shakes head*

Brain fart for real.

[SissyBuns]

Yeah I think its way easier for me to stay on top of it if I have people keeping me on track…even though not a lot of people responded to this thread I’m still going to keep up with it maybe just to hold myself accountable for eating better/working out more. I’m going to post pictures but I will probably do it in my blog on here so I don’t scare anyone since I’m sure it’s going to be terrifying https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

I’m definitely going to follow your progress. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

[SissyBuns]

LOL

Hell yeah!

[SissyBuns]

I don’t know much about Insanity ( I can’t do any cardio that involves bouncing or jumping because I just had surgery on my foot) but from what I hear from BluntedEssence on facebbook….it’s a great workout. LOL

She loves it. Seriously. They should have her on the payroll for all the raving she does about it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I’d love to try it when I’m better.

[SissyBuns]

and sissy that goes for all strength work…rows, triceps press, shoulder raises you get the idea https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_idea.gif so unless your specifically working on flexion and extension of the wrist/forearms always keep a neutral wrist.

Roger that! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif

[SissyBuns]

OMG, that’s just amazing!! You go give him DOUBLE of whatever sexual favours he wants! BTW, saw your reenactment of your pole princess routine on youtube and thought it was SMOKIN’!!! You’ve gone from pole princess to pole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_queen.gif in my books!!

Thanks girly https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

It took a lot to get the old man to this point. A lot of discussions and compromises. He’s even coming with me to USPDF…he’s not going to watch the show though LOL. Poledance actually bores him. He says all the moves look the same.

Can you believe that???? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif

[SissyBuns]

Hey guys! Im still looking for roomies!!!

I think me and Poledancevienna are rooming together. we plan to stay at the Marrakech Broadway Hotel address is: 2688 Broadway New york NY.

I need girls who are coming in Thursday and leaving monday (if you’re leaving sunday that’s cool i guess having it split for 3 days is better than none) but it’d be nice to be able to just split it even. the room is a "double double" so 2 double beds. its $180USD total, a night, which is pretty good for the area and other hotel prices that Ive found. itll be $60 a girl with 3 people and only about $45 a girl if we get 4. if you want in let me know ASAP so it can be booked!

see you all there!!!!

What the fudge dude. I thought you were staying at the Days Inn? LOL

[SissyBuns]

Looks like I’m going to be at the Days Inn, it’s like 0.1 miles from the theatre…or so mapquest says. LOL

[SissyBuns]

I like this thread Glitty. Having people to hold you accountable really helps for motivation https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

If I’m left to my own vices I’ll be making every day a cheat day. LOL

[SissyBuns]

True. I meant for like bicep curls and stuff though. Chest press. Things like that?

[SissyBuns]

In addition to what Veena advised pay attention to the position of your wrist when you are poling.

Your wrist should always be in neutral alignment – on the same side of the pole as your shoulder. Not wrapped or curled around the pole as this can cause tendon problems and carpal tunnel.

Plus you don’t have as much strength in your hold when your wrist is curled that way.

That wrist alignment is important for weight lifting too, right?

I lift too and sometimes when I don’t watch my wrists and make sure I keep them straight….they let me know, LOL.

[SissyBuns]

The StudioX (jpa) Gals will be with Poletential too!! WOOOT! I know heather is like SUPER stoked about going =) its all she talks about ^^ This will be my first time ever in NY soo freakin nervous! lol <3

And speaking for the Poletential girls, we can’t wait to meet the JPA girls and all the rest of you! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
Don’t be nervous. NY rocks.
And as for shopping, a few tips for you:
Comfy shoes. You’re gonna walk your ass off.
A warm coat, could be freezing.
A bag to carry your heels and pole clothes in for workshops. We got Poletential backpacks last year and they were perfect.
NY isn’t terribly casual. I’d rather be overdressed there than underdressed, anyday.

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif What do you mean walking your ass off? Just like, getting to and from places? Cuz um….I’m still handicapped LOL

[SissyBuns]

It seems like there a few concerns here.

1) Will he be uncomfortable with you pole dancing with other men in the room?
2) Will you be comfortable dancing with him and other men in the room?
3) Will other women pole dancing in the room make him uncomfortable?

There are a lot of variables there. I know you trust your husband and you may not plan to be shakin your booty and wiggling all around, but you can’t necessarily control what everyone else does. What if some of the other ladies decide to have some fun and do some sensual or sexy moves and your hubby turns beet red and wants to be anywhere else but there? LOL

I’m not religious at all, but I can see where you’re coming from. Especially if he is more conservative, stuff like that may not be his idea of a good time.

If what you want to do is show him what you do, then I’d definitely set up some private time with just you two. The last thing you want to happen is to turn him off to the idea of pole dance all together because he has a bad experience.

[SissyBuns]

Can I dance while drinking a beer and then flash my boobies while screaming like an idiot…hey, you said spring break! hahahaha, Just kidding. I’ll try to behave. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! That was what I was thinking when she said Spring Break. LMAO!
