    That’s not an option for me unfortunately for lots of reasons. Im thinking I may have to go for an xstage instead. But not only do i think they are much less attractive, but with the podium and my fairly low ceilings, i’d have to get it cut down, so it wouldn’t have much height to work with. Is it worth it? It seems like my last option to have a pole…

    How high are your cielings?

    OK, well, three days in and I love it. It is a workout for the person who likes to be a little masochistic in his/her exercise…..which, since I am part of the "I love bruises" culture of pole dance, fits perfectly. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

    So far so good!

    Have you been able to pole as well as do the workouts.

    Hi Jeng,
    Like I told you in chat last night (or at least I think I did) that I know where you’re coming from because I had the same problem with my hubby when I first started. He even told me I was going to "stripper" school when I took classes and that I was being a bad influence on our daughters by poling. We had other issues in our relationship and once we got to the bottom of those , my poling wasn’t such a big deal and he learned to accept it for what it is. Me poling in my room with no men throwing dollars at me. Just me doing it for myself and feeling good about myself and what I was able to accomplish.

    1.5 years is a long time for him to still have issues with you poling. It’s true that pole dancing has stigmas and ties attached to it to an industry that most men wouldnt want their woman involved in but….maybe he could narrow his focus down some to see what it is for you and what you’re doing with it. Have you asked him, aside from it’s ties to stripping, what his problem is with you, Jeng, doing it? I think your compromise is very adequate considering that he doesn’t even want to see the pole. Is there something he does that you don’t necessaily care for (no matter the reason) that you allow him to do because he thoroughly enjoys it? Maybe you can try a comparison to help him understand?

    I was just so happy that it said that ANYONE can gain flexibility in the spine with practice. I am definitely a front bender and need to work on my backbends. I didn’t want to hurt myself so I didn’t work on backbends much. Off I go to the pole vault to stretch!!!

    https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I wish I was going with you! Hell, I wish I could at least stretch for that matter LOL. In due time I suppose…

    Thank you Sissybuns and faerie9 , Im gonna try to get by climbing left handed/legged and eating a bannana before I get on the pole and see how that does. I appreciate all the input.

    Let us know how that goes. I’m curious to find out.

    January 2, 2010 at 11:14 pm in reply to: Forearm grip help

    Hi chili,
    I only have a straight edge and aysha with split grip. Once you said you were comfy with your SG butterfly I was going to suggest you try it with that grip but if it’s hurting you and your body is telling you to rest it, you’re doing the right thing by listening. Plus a lot of people say the SG aysha is more difficult then the elbow or forearm anyway. I just recently got a Forearm grip by learning to do the caterpillar climb and I would agree with chemgoddess on working on that to help you get more comfortable with that grip.

    Thanks for posting this Angel, it does have a lot of useful information. I’m tempted to try some of this stuff while I recover but damn…the warm up looks hard as hell! LOL. Ive got nothing but time though so I’ll give it a try.

    I did P90X and loved it. The workouts are intense though and it’s sometimes difficult to mix pole in there too since you should give yourself a day inbetween working a muscle group and pole is pretty much a full body workout so you’re always going to have a muscle group that you’re suposed to resting but you’re going to end up using it when you pole. You know what I mean?

    Did that make sense? LOL

    Papermoon I suggest you try veena’s lessons too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif . I signed up for her lessons when I first got my pole and I still use them to this day. One of the best parts about them is that they’re in order of difficulty, you just start from the begining and go! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif
