    Well done for getting the foot off the floor. This spin can be quite intimidating! Its the whole ‘falling’ forward thing. Again, well done https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

    Im sooooo glad to read that you’re returning your pole and getting an x-pole! Your instructor shouldnt have told you to buy that other pole. I know she was trying to save you some money but would you put a price on safety???
    If you buy your pole from Veena you get free shipping! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I really hope this pole is good enough to hold you for your spins. I dont know if a pole that cost £60 will be durable enough for you to invert on. Please be careful! I hope Im wrong but I think maybe the name Pole Fit Pro is just another name for the carmen electra, peek-a-boo & pole aerobics poles. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

    Hi Butterflii
    Here’s my pole story! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
    A gym near me was offering pole dancing classes and my friend and I decided to do them! We didnt really know what to expect. (I hadnt done my research tsk tsk!!) At the first lesson I couldnt believe how hard it was! It was so much fun though and when I saw what our teacher was able to do I was determined to keep at it!! The classes were for one hour per week for 6 weeks! As soon as the first 6 weeks of lessons was over I signed up for the 2nd set. Unfortunately the gym wouldnt run the class unless they had enough people so I had to wait a few months before the next level. After that 6 week set of lessons was over I signed up for another set of lessons, this time it was to learn a simple pole routine to a song. It was after these lessons that I decided I didnt want to have to wait another couple of months before I got on a pole again so after a lot of searching and waiting I got my x-pole. I loved it and spent a long time perfecting spins and doing my routine. But because I wasnt learning anything new I slackened off and wasnt doing as many work outs as I should have been. Then I went to America for the Summer and left my pole at home. When I got back I was really busy with work and I was rehearsing for a musical so I didnt have a lot of time on the pole. And then there was a leak upstairs and the ceiling of the room where the pole is got soaked and I had to take the pole down for weeks and weeks!!! When the pole was put back up I was determined to do more work outs and to get better. I joined Veena’s fantastic site and it has really motivated me to be better. Everyone here is so nice too!
    Then in January this year my old pole fitness teacher contacted me and told me that she has opened her own studio and she offered me more advanced, cheaper lessons that are ongoing and not in block sets!!! So Im doing those now. I have Veena and everyone here to thank for any progress Ive made since joining here. My teacher is fantastic too of course but being here is great because everyone is so passionate about pole dancing/fitness! They’re so helpful and friendly, not to mention funny and great!!

    Advantages: Im more toned than Ive EVER been!! Ive lost weight. I have more energy. Ive met these fantastic people! Im more self confident. Its so much fun that it doesnt feel like a work out or a chore! The achievements you can make and the things your body can do!!
    Disadvantages: The bruises! (They go away!) The cost of the x-pole. (I look at mine as an investment though beacuse its the BEST piece of fitness equipment Ive ever bought and Ive wasted my money on plenty!) The negative image. (I try my best to ignore it and dont really care what people think of me!)

    Sorry about the long post but this is my pole story!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I hope this helps somehow! (And I hope you havent fallen asleep!!!!)
