I had to take breaks through 2013 because I had to get another certification for work and I also had a weak shoulder, so I didn’t really get a chance to practice or learn new tricks. So I just want to be able to actually do a routine that I’m happy with sharing and to get more inverts. I’m still working on King Pigeon too. I’ve been doing this for 3 years and I feel like I’m still brand spanking new. *Sigh*.

I have a couple of pairs. I love them for when I’m doing flexibility training. It keeps my legs nice and warm. My Mother used to dance ballet and she said it was a great way to keep your legs warm when you weren’t training. You can buy some from discountdance.com.

I've gotten A LOT of compliments on my arms and my shoulders. However I'm silently complimenting myself on my slowly, BUT SURELY emerging ab muscleshttps://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif. Recently a friend asked me how is my butt so Firm yet so Bouncy?! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif I told him that I guess it must be because I work out in heels 5 times a week sometimes 2 times in 1 day depending on the class.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_queen.gif

I need to get massages more often. I get compliments on the increase of my flexibility.

I've worn my shoes to clubs and some restaruants. I have Pleaser shoes, so they are really comfortable. People who make high heels need to take tips from the makers who make stripper heels when it comes to comfort.

I have queefed when I was doing floor work I really tried hard to do as wide of a V as possible could and I brought my legs down and there it ripped thank God I was practicing alone and at home. But the air wasn't finished as I started crawling and laughing to my pole, more air kept coming out I had no idea how so much got up there to begin with!

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I haven't… yet, but I was taking a class once and the teacher was teaching when you are already on the pole, but you are inverting and when she went to pull herself up and hook her leg, she let it rip! She sad it was her shoes, but we all new better. We had a good laugh about it.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Sometimes I use songs with good beats and sometimes I don't listen to the words, or sometimes I use it to help my body get in the right groove. I don't let a song's lyric's get to me when I'm dancing cause the song is not about me nor does it define me. But if certain songs leave a bad taste in your mouth then please by all means don't dance to it. I LOVE PORN STARS! I have friends in that profession it doesn't bother me one bit. You are gonna always run into ignorant people that want to put us all under the same umbrella, but I think the song is very catchy.
I'm fortunate enough to not have negative people in my life that judge me on what my hobby is, but I'm sure ther are few coming around the river bend soon enough and when that happens I will distance myself from them I don't need that sort of drama.

Good Point, but the question is, How important is it to you? If you are a trail blazer and paid your dues when there was no such thing,or if you are at an amazing studio that doesn't have it then it doesn't. For people like my mother that is all about certificates (Ballet Dancer), it does. I just hope that they at least have First Aid and CPR at least.

Oh yeah when things like this first get going no body has certifications its when it gets to a popular point that all of a sudden people say, "You know maybe we should get some". I once saw a picture of Felix in Vertical Magazine where she fell right off the pole and did some major damage to her self, so yeah accidents will happen there is no denying that I just think that the discussion is on whether or not certification is important to you or not. If not then cool go about your business, if so then same thing. Sometimes for me it depens on what it is. Like I have said before not all of my instructors are certified, but they are extra careful and do not push(nor will I be pushed), so its not a big ordeal, but if I'm going to surgery or need a lawyer, best believe I want certifications. Its all of our personal choices. Hell I have a cousin that shot himself in the foot with his own gun, but he is certified (BIG TIME CERTIFIED). Accidents happens.

CapFeb,
That is Sucky! I'm so lucky that I have never had that experience. My instructors always teach from the ground and if your too scared they tell you DON'T DO IT! When you feel you are they will spot you.
