    Got this website from someone….don’t remember who. Their prices for silks seem pretty reasonable.

    I actually have small calves so I can’t advise from experience but I just got these and they lace up the back and zip up the inside…and they are a bit large on me even at their tightest so I think they would adjust for anyone with larger calves.

    Empy, I want to see those on. They look kinda cool but I am not sold on them.

    The boots that I have on in my avatar have ribbon laces on both sides plus they zip up the back. They are very corset-like in the way they fit, plus you can buy all colors of ribbon and change them out to match your outfit. They come with black, pink and red ribbons already. The only complaint that I have about these is that I have a gap down near the ankle where the lacing ends. I tried having the bows at the top of the boot but the gap looked funny to me. The bow really needs to be at the bottom to cover it up.

    BTW, they are Penthouse Chasity. Penthouse is made by Ellie so if you know what size you wear in Ellie…. For me Ellie’s run big so I ordered a 9.

    First question, are you sure you are level in 2 planes?

    Resistance bands are pretty cheap, easily packable and are great for all sorts of exercises.

    Follow your gut Amy. As cool as it may be it sounds like you have some serious doubts. If those are true and not just nervousness then you already know your answer.

    Oh, and so jealous of you taking classes with Marlo.

    Crap people, I am from NE Ohio and I would not want to drive in a foot of snow!

    This was only about 4" that fell that morning, and my community is GOOD about salting and pushing the snow:

    Veena has a really good breakdown in her vids. Basically one is face forward and one is head back.

    It depends on the studio. Many times they have open pole or you can book a party. Instructors are whether you want them or not but again depends on the studio.

    December 18, 2009 at 1:36 am in reply to: I’m Stuck

    I have had MANY of these in the last 2 years. At the beginning of this year I was trying to caterpillar climb and when I finally got it (after several months) I ended up fatiguing and falling head first onto the ground. I could not even think about doing that for at least 3 months…I was scared to DEATH. After I went back to it I got the straight edge almost immediately but just got the aysha about 3 weeks ago. I have been trying that since the beginning of summer. When I get into ruts I just work on transitions and spins and such. There is so much more than "tricks". When my body decides that I can do the move it will happen. Usually after my ruts I nail a bunch of things all at once again.

    I have been finding that as the structure of my body changes some of the stuff that used to come easily is not so easy any more so I almost have to relearn. I am also finding that if I am not on a regular workout schedule then my down time after class is much longer. I cannot wait until the holidays are over so that I can get back to a somewhat regular schedule.

    December 16, 2009 at 9:43 pm in reply to: Warming up a cold pole

    I have 2 heating pads that I have bungeed around my pole in the past. I don’t see why the heating cables would not work, just wrapping and unwrapping would be a pain. I am also not sure how well they will stay in place without insulation around them.
