But remember to "not give away the whole damn farm" though. Make an outline for yourself so you can follow it, and teach the fundamentals. So many times I see "beginning" classes and they teach 4-5 spins, yet the students don't really understand how to DANCE: the proper form of the walk, a pirouette, hip circles and a body wave. As experienced dancers we sometimes take those simple moves for granted, and I have seen too many ladies give up on the wonderful endeavor of pole because their instructor threw too much at them too fast. It also sets the proverbial hook for them to become long term students instead of "fad" students. Good luck t you sister! Please keep us posted…

I marinate in e. Literally. When I get out of the shower in the morning I use it instead of moisturizer. It's difficult, since it so dry living here in the desert, but DP has made a huge difference in my poling.

I find Pleaser to run just a bit too narrow for me if I've got to wear them for any extended period of time. I find Jante to run a bit wide once the shoes have warmed to my foot. Regardless, look for a shoe that has a suede (or faux-suede) footbed so your toes don't poke out over the edge. The suede allows your foot to stay in place better. You're going to find a pair that was made just for you and when you do stick with 'em sister!

Unless the cash was out I generally didn't bother with the aerial moves. A few spins and a pole sit is enough to draw the attention of the crowd. After that most guys are more interested in the "Up close and personal" stuff. I worked in the clubs here in Las Vegas for many moons and can say that was the general rule. It's the girls who are more impressed with the pole and the effort it takes to master a lot of moves. Many of the strippers out there know more than they let on… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Hysterical!

Repetition, repetition, repetition!
Floorwork is the same as pole in that it needs to be worked on again and again to find the fluidity of it. I was challenged one time to just do a routine with no spins/inverts/tricks. What a joy that was! Just beautiful dance and transitions!
When I was dancing in the clubs, I'd make a list for myself of what moves I wanted to make sure I incorporated, and before I went on stage I'd refer to those notes and go, "oh yeah, I want to make sure I do a xxx and a xxxx tonight." It kept it fresh for me and more engaging for the audience.
Most competitions are now requiring floorwork now, too! I'm seeing on the lists of "Must-do" moves is 20-30 consecutive seconds of floorwork.
Keep playing with it and it will become easier! Turn on some music and dance! Even if you do the same thing over and over again! You'll start to have fun with it. Promise! 😉
