    When I first started years ago I was taking various work out classes and weight training. Pole is so different and I looked and felt like I’d never been off of the cough lol. I don’t remember how long it took me to invert, but I remember I had to start from the bottom up when learning how to do basic pole hold, etc to hold my body. You are at a great place for instruction on how to build up and learn to invert, etc. I was taught incorrectly at a local studio and pulled a muscle in my rib cage so bad I thought I fractured a rib.

    You will notice strength getting better with each new exercise, move, hold, progression step/level. Welcome to pole and to StudioVeena.com!

    I have xlock pole. I have to put a little bit of umph to switch. I do mean a little bit as an adult, there’s a little technique to lift, turn and let drop into position. It is done quickly now that I am used to it. Maybe your toddler won’t actually know how you are doing it in order to figure it out. But, again, there’s a technique.

    I am so glad that you found this site. Veena and her lessons are the best. Like she said, get added to her FB group for live lessons and a chat class to go over it for help, tips, etc. I get the hassle of not being able to hear well with background music going. Can’t wait to see your pole journey! Welcome 🙂

    I understand the difficulty of being a home poler. I don’t go to a studio as often as I like, so also pole at home. Hopefully, someone who is just starting will connect with you to follow and support each other. And you don’t suck 🙂 You are in the beginning of your own pole journey. If you haven’t heard already, the key is don’t compare yourself to others, even if they started around the same time as you. Everyone progresses differently for different reasons. Every time you practice, strength will come. There is great support here on SV, so posting videos to share you journey is helpful. I encourage you to follow Veena’s method of progression, it really helped me. No matter your level, we are all here to support each other. Welcome to SV and to pole!

    Even though SV is not officially an app, to me it works just like one, but safe. I added the icon to my home screen and when I click on it, opens up and logged in. There shouldn’t be a hold out fir using on your phone or tablet. I have it in an Apps folder because to that’s what I consider it. 💜

    Welcome to studioveena. I didn’t have a studio for long time so used Veena’s lessons. I learned and progressed so much due to her lessons. You won’t be disappointed. This site is supportive and provides encouragement. Again, welcome!

    Welcome to StudioVeena! I am 63 and also started at almost 50. Even though I wish I’d found pole sooner, it am happy and surprised what I have accomplished. I loved it from day 1 that I never gave my age a second thought. It’s important not to compare yourself to others and doesn’t matter if you don’t get what others do or how long it takes. ENJOY your pole journey and each accomplishment will be exciting. StudioVeena is the right place for learning and support. Please share your journey so we can happy dance with you. 🙂
