Depending on when it is scheduled (whether we have kids or not) I am in. I have been wanting to get down to Yellow Springs and this might be a push for me to actually get there.

Do you have dates and studios yet?

Would it be okay to say what night these girls are going out to SIN?
I wouldn’t mind lurking about the crowd and checking things out (if I could find a sitter).
I would love to have a permanent pole, but my only open area is smack dab in the middle of the living room. My hubby wouldn’t be thrilled with a pole blocking his history channel and ESPN viewing (not to mention the kids with their cartoons).
Hah, great mommy minds must think alike – I love the 2 year age gap, although when my last turned 2 and there wasn’t a bun in the oven, it was a heartbreaker. ***Sigh*** So, hubby got snipped, and I got boobs, guess that isn’t such a bum deal.
Saturday night as far as I know. I will send you the info through FB.
No more kids or boobs…..I would not have to think twice about that one!!! Gimme the boobs!

I’m excited for you Amy. A lot has been happening in the world of pole for you lately!
-
The girls are ones I know that are not on here (same ones as in my pics plus a few of their friends).

The pole at Slam Jams is not that bad but then when you are climbing and doing all sorts of stuff on it barefoot….well, let’s just say I had some issues! I did not even realize that I had damaged my foot until the next morning when I got in the shower. Both times we have gone out there it was a week night and the place was kind of dead….no fighting over the pole.
There are a few girls planning on hitting SIN this weekend (I am not one of them). I guess the pole there is a spinny….. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_l.gif

I have yet to be to Hotties but have heard about their poles (and about the issues). SIN (used to be Traffic) downtown also has poles along with a few places in Akron. The pole at Slam Jams is brass and pretty tall but it is also scratched to hell. The top of my foot is just starting to heal from almost 3 weeks ago. There is also a group of Ohio girls that has been getting together in Columbus at a bar called Kickstand. They have live bands and the pole is set up in front of the stage. If you search for Luvlee she has some videos up of the jam in March on her profile. They had all gotten together this past Saturday again but I was unable to make it.
Be is a small studio and only has 3 poles so classes are kind of small. I sat in on a class last night and there were only 3 girls. She also does privates but they are a little more pricey. I used to go to the advanced class on Monday nights and it was usually me and the instructor…sometimes one other person would join but that was about it. If you talk to Christina just tell her that you do not like lots of people and she can suggest a time when it is less crowded.

Hey Momma…I am in Bedford Heights….not too far from you!
If you are looking for classes I would highly recommend Be Studios at 104th and Clifton in Cleveland (Lakewood border).
What bar were you playing at? (just to make sure that my list of bars in the area that have poles is complete!) If you look at my profile I have pics taken a few weeks back at Slam Jams in N. Olmsted.

ANY pole can come down on you if you do not inspect it prior to using it. I have had my lil mynx up for over 2 years without issue, but mine is directly into the wood, not through drywall and then into the stud. I know people have had issues with the drywall breaking away over time thus causing both ceiling damage and an unstable pole but if you are taking it down every day you would be able to inspect that rather easily.
If I had a choice to do it all over again I would probably go with X-Pole just because I like the portability and flexibility of the height of the pole.

I think Jenyne did something like that in last year’s USPDF competition but good luck trying to find that video!
There are videos of pole superstar out there that have Sarah’s and Alethea’s routines and I think one of them did something similar during that competition.

Welcome!!

I tried looking for her on facebook but i couldn’t find her. :/
Type Shawn Frances Lee into the search bar at top. Either that or search for urban fertility dancer.
Not sure if this link will work or not:

I LOVE Zumba!!! You really need to search out a good instructor though or at least one that suits your style. My instructor has a background in hip-hop and belly dance so that really comes through in her style.
I went to a Zumbathon Friday night and there were at least 6 different instructors. There were only 2 out of the bunch that I liked. One had routines that were straight out of TurboJam and one was just ridiculous with her choreography. There was one guy that had a disco themed routine which was fun and he also had a capoeira/african themed routine.
Usually you can get drop in classes for under $10. If you go to Zumba.com you can find classes in your area.

Price is ridiculous for anyone in the US when you look at the exchange rate. I don’t know anyone who is willing to pay over $1200 for a pole, not including shipping, when we have Star Stand Alone available for about $500 and the X Stage for $800.
That said, I think part of the other issue people had with this when it came out was that ONLY the pads were available to go around the base. I see that they are supposed to have hard bases available in May of this year.

I do. I am short waisted but long bodied, if that makes sense. I have a hard time with 1 pieces. Gonna try them on anyway!
