    Ok I finally posted pics in my photo album of my starting pics. I'm currently 10 inches from the ground which is further from the ground than I had hoped but it is what it is. Will do another measurement and pics in 2 weeks. Hopefully I will have some progress!

    I'd LOVE something like this too it would be fun & helpful to many of us I think I know I sure could use some ideas…maybe even a beginner combo section, interm combo section and Advanced combo section. That way people can play around with different combos according to their level or mix and match from each section to create their own routines.

    For the last month or two its the butterfly & gemini/scorpio switch to pike hold to knee tuck/hip hold that have been my fave moves because i can do them all pretty smoothly now.

    Tarina Karina was first YT pole vid i ran across when i was researching getting into pole dancing for fitness. I would watch her vids for hours on end. I was just amazed that she was self taught & soooo good.

    Then I discovered the pros & i was really blown away & hooked–J. Butterfly, Felix & Alethea etc.

    I also LOVE Nadia Sharif (past instuctor), Aerial Amy, Badazz, Skittles, David C Owen & Remi Martin.

    For the last cpl years though, Dirdy Birdy has really kept my attention…her dance style is really how I hope to dance one day…it is just so beautiful, fluid & graceful.

I will take pics of each side starting point this weekend as well as measure how far i am from floor & i think take new pics & measurements every 2 weeks to try & document improvement. Hopefully ill keep up w/it! Here we go!

    October 18, 2012 at 11:25 am in reply to: Can you kick butt in a fight?

    I've always been an ass whooper. I fought alot of dudes as a kid and teen (I was picked on alot), so I got right to the point & punched a person the f out. I don't do any girl frilly fighting either– pulling hair or scratching bs, I go right for the KO. I had a real anger problem and VERY short fuse for many years–like jump out of a driving vehicle to fight an asshole–yeah not a proud moment.

    However, as I've gotten older, I try and defuse fist fights (such a change from my younger days when I would fist fight in an instant) before things get crazy, but I will still throw down when talking it out doesn't work. Some people are just idiots and won't listen to reason and an ass whooping is the only way to shut them up and/or get them to stop messing with you. A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.

    I have noticed that pole has made my inner thighs and legs incredibly strong though and so has my husband. The other day we were wrestling(being silly) and I got him in a headlock between my upper thighs and he couldn't get out of it. My husband is a big guy almost 6 feet and almost 300 pounds, so that surprised him and me both because usually he can pin me or get out of my arm holds very easily lol.

    I sooo sympathize with you. I get them too always a couple days before or during my period & it usually lasts for 2 or more days. Its horrible. Ive tried everything & what has works for me 90% of the time is taking 2 excedrine migraine along w/drinking either iced or hot coffee (from starbucks, homemade coffee is hit or miss) or chugging an energy drink. Its worked for a cpl of my friends & not for others…so i guess it doesnt hurt to try it right?

    Gogo dancers make decent money and alot of gogo dancer venues now have poles in the gogo dancer boxes.

    Do you go to a studio? you could talk to the owner about assisting at pole parties, working at the studio office pt or something like that.

    This was awesome 🙂 congrats on your first performance! It all seems so exciting! I want to perform badly but I have yet to perform & i’m terrified about it.

    I have a pole party that i’ve booked for my bday Dec 8 & “the plan” is for me to perform for my guests at that & i am already majorly freaked out. I still have to formulate a routine too & have no idea where to start as i am terrible @ putting together choreography & my freestyle is much worse lol. My studio instructor offered to help if i book a private lesson which i dont have the extra $ for right now 🙁
    I’m thinking of just taking bits & pieces for vids on the net that feature moves i can do & piecing it all together…

    Good luck at your next performance i’m sure youll do great!
