I know im new and dont know you personnaly but I have watched your videos and honestly you inspire me.

Like yourself I am NOT skinney (im a size 16 UK, or a 12 in the US i think) and have felt like you numerous times at class when ive ended up sharing a pole with the size 6-8’s in the class. (think thats 2-4’s in US) but after watching you on your vids I know that the moves that are giving me problems now can be done by curvier girls, and in some cases look better!

I really hope you continue poleing as I look forward to your videos and seeing your progression as it gives me somthing to work towards myself.

Anyways take care, keep smiling and look forward to your next posts https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Thx for all the feedback its appreciated.
I have decided I am def saving for the X pole and will fit the pole fit one temporaily.
Will def not be doing inverts on it and will cautiously do spins.
Feel a bit cheated now as i feel i just wasted £60 that I could have put towards the X pole but you live and learn I suppose https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

Our instructer I assume uses the poles at the venue where our classes are. She told me that the X Pole was over priced for what it was and suggested the carman electra one or a pole fit pole. But after reading reviews on the carman electra one i know i wouldnt buy that one.

The poles we use there are kind of home made. They are scaffold poles and again I assume its due to the very high ceilings in the venue. They are securely bolted so am confident to use those but practically not usefull for in the home XD Im not making them sound very good so heres a pic of what we use http://poledancing.wetpaint.com/photo/849035/-" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Ive found various reviews on this pole that I couldnt find before, mainly as it seems to be marketed under various names :S Most reviews seem to be positive BUT nothing recent :S

Think im just gonna have to wait for it to arrive and see what happens. If I dont feel safe then ill just use it temporarily for the basic spins (as i am really not going to be doing anything advance for a long time XD) and strictly no invert practicing untill i can afford to get the X pole.
