I just booked my flight! I'm soooo looking forward to this event!  It was FABULOUS last year, and I expect more of the same this year!

Best of luck to you on your new pole journey sister! Always kinda scary heading out on your own, but it sounds like you are being good about find out what's going on in your area and keeping a good head on your shoulders.  follow your heart and know we are here to support you!! xxoo

YEA! I just confirmed my NYC trip! Are we going to have a Veener party?? Will we agree to wear a certain color, like we did at USPDF West, so we can identify each other? I'll be staying with my brother in Brooklyn, but he said Symphony Space is an easy train ride from his digs.

AHHHH! I had to read this on SV! (No offense Veeners, but YBB is my girl!)  I AM SOOOO EXCITED this is finally coming to fruition! You deserve every happiness that comes from being a studio owner and instructor.  Your knowledge will be such an asset to both your students and business partner.  Although I miss you more than I can even express, I know it's best for you to be where you are.  You have been such an integral part of not just my professional life, but my personal life as well and I'm honored to call you my friend.  I can't wait to see the studio.  You know this means a road trip, right?!?  😉  I love you!!

[TrixieLovett]

Excellent! Let us know your progress so we can be your positive reinforcement as well!

T-

I run a website called PoleNation.com and we keep it updated regularly.  It also allows for student reviews. Kinda like Yelp, but for pole studios only.  Take a peek at http://www.PoleNation.com. Hope this helps you out.  Let me know if I can help you further!

I just donated. Who's joining me???

[TrixieLovett]

For what it's worth: I vote for keeping your pole and think of it as making an investment in yourself.  Once you get to aHawaii you can say to yourself "gee, I spent a lot of money on this pole: purchasing it and getting it here, so I better use it." You don't have to go all out every time you have a few minutes to yourself.  Just keep your hands on her every so often and things will come back to you quickly.

Amy- you hit the nail on the head sister. Thank you for such a thorough answer.

[TrixieLovett]

Welcome to SV! If, as your name suggests, you are in Dallas for real, then I’m looking forward to meeting you at the Miss Texas Pole Dance competition this upcoming June as it will be in your fine city!

Thank you , thank you, thank you! ALL of you who remind me with posts of these rants as to why I live is Las Vegas! I’m b*tching about our 50 degree weather. Oops! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif

I feel for you sister. I’ve been dancing for over a decade and am like a junkie sometimes, trying every new fad of grip aid that comes down the pike! What I have found works best for me is using a prescription strength antiperspirent on my palms at night, which I then wash off first thing in the morning. It won’t help you immediately, but will give relief long term, as I have found. I actually went to my MD and explained what I wanted and why. He’s a Sports Medicine specialist and was once the doctor for the Olympic Boxing Team. He approved of the idea and it’s kept me poling for many moons now. There are several prescription strength products out there now that you can just pick up at Walgreen’s. Keep twirling sister. We are all here to support you!

YEA Pink!!! It’s NOT silly! You should be proud! It’s scary to let go!! And thank you for letting us share in your achievement. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

[TrixieLovett]

Thanks for sharing with us! I thought it was a great little clip to introduce your studio! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Lizbeth- I’m uploading a vid for you right now and I hope it helps and inspires you! I was challenged to make a vid with no show-off moves! No spins, inversions, trick or anything! The challenge was to just dance! I loved every minute of it! The ending is a bit sketchy, since I had never heard the song before, and I had no idea when the song was going to end! HA! I downloaded it at random as it was free! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif I hope your poling journey continues to challenge you and encourages you to grow as a free spirit!
