Correction…when you get *artists* involved in anything. There is just as much drama with guys (see the martial arts post).

When I injured mine the only thing that helped me to walk was to get a deep tissue massage. I do not see how this could harm, but I also am not a doctor.

That surprises me about the martial arts as the school that my husband went to did not allow crap like that. It was out of RESPECT that you did not go to another dojo without first asking if it was ok, but in no way were they ever out to get one another unless it was at a tournament. But maybe it is also the style at the dojo. I know that many are all about the fight and not about the message.
I guess I have been lucky thus far. In Cleveland the schools all work together and realize that each one has a place. They share instructors and students and many times events. Here in NC while I am still new, I know that many of the students attend workshops all over and there is a push to go and learn all you can. After all, the instructors job is to make a great student and without outside influences that just will not happen.

No studio owns a client. Is this the owner that is doing this or the other students? I would personally sit and talk to the owner about it. They should not be bringing their own personal drama and instilling it in the students. Sadly I know this to happen all over though. If the owner is smart she will stop this because in the long run it will only hurt her business.

There are 2 that I know of, one is http://insurance4poledancers.com/i4pd/ and Aerial Amy has another one but I cannot remember who it is.

BTW, you can check out lots of different types of wrist guards at a sporting goods store. Walmart may even have some. Did your RMT suggest any specific type of guard?
These are super stiff: http://www.bowlingindex.com/store/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=BI&Category_Code=WS&Product_Code=WR-RCM
These have more give: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Gold-s-Gym-Pair-of-Wrist-Wraps/21672527?findingMethod=rr
Ones made for yoga: http://www.amazon.com/Adjustable-Neoprene-Support-WristBands-Pilates/dp/B005U2BE9Y
There are a lot of options out there. And I have seen a LOT of people wearing these. I may even invest in a pair myself because we do a lot of yoga type stuff as a warm up and some days my one wrist is not happy with me.

I know there was a thread a little while back about wrist wraps. Basically you want the same type that bodybuilders use. There are also ones made for bowlers but a lot of those are pretty stiff (which may be a good thing for this instance). Do you need it for support or to stop wrist rub?
Ahhhhh…should have known it was Amy that blogged about them! http://aerialamy.com/blog/2012/05/02/strength-wraps/

I am currently taking my xpole up and down. I leave the pole in one piece and tuck it to the side and then just put the dome in its case.

I am sorry to say but I would question this studio and their teaching ability.

Can you do a butterfly? And extended butterfly? How about thigh rest into butterfly? If you cannot do any of these you really should not be working on a half mount.

There were a bunch of people who would use the chat function on SV to meet throughout the week to stretch or practice. This is basically that same group.
I would also suggest looking through the lessons here. Veena has a 30 day conditioning and she tells you exactly what to do. There are a lot of other stretching and conditioning videos on top of that.

I am not sure any theme has not been done before on some level.

Did you try hitting them with a blow dryer first? Those shoes come very narrow and are made to stretch with heat. Before selling them try that.
