    Yes you can cancel Veena’s lessons at anytime. Go to the profile tab, click account & follow steps once in there to cancel.

    Welcome to SV! Everything you are describing is normal & things that most of us dealt with when we started pole-the not knowing where to start, hands slipping, no strength etc. It all will get better/improve the more you practice pole.

    I highly recommend Veena’s lessons as well because they are great & go in order, so that you build strength as you learn new moves & her lessons go at an easy to follow pace, which is awesome.

    SV is great! Glad you found us! I'm in Los Angeles, so maybe sometime we can meet up 🙂 There is a pole expo coming up in Vegas in Sept, you might enjoy going to that.

    Welcome to SV!

    AYE! Although I only do it when the kids aren’t here or fast asleep. It adds a whole different perspective to poling but I don’t do it too often though because my big ole boobies flop around too much & it hurts! Lol

  • Congrats!

    I have this same issue! My nether regions get really bad too. I have a regimen–spray thighs with alcohol, slather with corn huskers lotion let dry, then apply dry hands. I do have to reapply a few times during my sessions but at least I can get a few tricks in before reapplying. Also ive recently discovered that having a small fan on (or a/c) to keep me from getting too heated & sweaty as I pole has helped TONS. I am able to pole alot longer & reapply grip aids alot less when I am kept cooled down.

    I have very full 36Ds & i buy the champions brand from target they have worked well for me. I’m still boobdacious but they stay in the bra when I invert.

    You are not alone. I have the same issues. I try to just dance every now & then to practice just feeling the music & expressing it through my pole movements but it doesn’t really ever turn out right. The problem is mostly not being able to mesh & execute all the elements of pole-dance, tricks & fluidity together.

    I’ve decided that I will probably just start taking workshops or class series’ a few times a year that focus on flow, transitions, choreography etc. I figure eventually my inner pole vixen will fully bloom & emerge. Hopefully.

    If you pole 3+ times a week that will do wonders for toning your bod. You can do push ups, sits ups, use pull up bar, do curls & arm exercises with light weights at home, as supplemental exercises to boost your arm & core strength as well if you want. Veena’s strength, foam roller & conditioning exercises are great too!

    I'll be there! I think I will buy a Veener button, so other Veeners can find me! I'd love to hang with as many of you as possible. Is anybody bringing their pole with them? A hotel room pole jam would be fun too!

    Fri I'm taking Liquid Motion (see you there azblanco!) & Rodney's chair challenge

    Sat I'm taking Estee's Combos & transition class and Rodney's showgirls classic

    Sun I am going to go to the spa, relax for a few hours and get a massage, then head out back home 🙂

    Learn on both (wish I had) but definitely get each move nailed on static mode first, then practice it on spin.

    Start with static! And I would highly recommend the 1 year it is a really good price and value!

    I do light stretching & conditioning every other day for 10-15 min stints, as well as a lil arm & core strength conditioning–push ups, pull ups, plank holds, bicycle sit ups etc. I’ll just drop on the floor & do sets of 20 through out my day. When I worked, I would close my office door, take 5 mins 2-3x a day & do a set of sit ups & push ups.
