    There are I think like 4 studios around Houston. What part of the city are you going to be in? This usually will play a part in where you end up because Houston traffic SUCKS!!!!! I have been to S Factor and Poleteaz and I think there is Verticality and Inner Me. Oops, looks like there is another called Revolve. Hopefully some of the Houston girls will chime in as I know there are a few here.

    One of the clubs in Pa has a shower and a cop car. The shower was pretty expensive and you could also pay for 2 girls in it. The cop car was fun because they turned the seats around and they actually treated you like you were getting arrested and then you had your lap dance inside with flashers going and everything.

    It sooooooo depends on the area. The clubs that are near airports or high business areas can pull in lots of clientele most days of the week although taking business men out to the clubs has been getting more and more frowned upon by businesses. Money is definitely made doing private dances or VIP. My niece can pull in $500 for an hour in VIP before payout here in Raleigh. She only works weekends and typically makes $500-1000 a weekend.

    Polebunny, there is Michigan Pole Fest this weekend in Detroit. You missed pole at The Arnold at the beginning of March in Columbus. I would follow Infinity Aerial on Facebook as Val typically has a lot of workshops and events that she is involved with.

    Is this an all the time lack of energy or just when you work out? Are you fueling your body properly in between? Is it close to that time of the month? There are many things that could be going on and most of them can be attributed to improper diet or wonky hormones.

    Lots of really good information here: https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/4f6bef47-fac4-4b2d-986c-23a40ac37250

    You have the hardest part already done which is picking your song. I personally break the song down into sections and typically will want a specific “look” at a certain part of the song. I will just freestyle trying to hit those certain moves at certain points and see what comes of it. I am not one to do counts but I know there are many that do. I study the hell out of the music and know all of my keys so even if I mess up (pretty much always happens) I can freestyle and still not blow all of my choreography. Another thing to remember is to not try to throw new moves into your routine. The moves you do should not have to take too much concentration because nerves will take over.

    And, um jealous that you have TCB as your home studio!

    It also depends on the lotion. I only use glycerin based lotions and can use them right before poling without issue (Aveeno, Vaseline aloe, CeraVe). Stuff that has “butter” bases or oil bases can sit there and will come out once you start sweating.

    Pole is not just about getting a move it is about moving into and out of that move with style and grace. That is only accomplished by doing said move a few hundred (thousand) times.

    Go to Phoenix’s Facebook page. She has a few moves that are all variations of her titanic move. I have never seen it with both feet on the pole though.

    Please be very careful with crossfit. More and more studies are coming out about how detrimental it can be to your body.

    They used to have topics but they often were not used and also became a little cumbersome.
