That's totally it! I always tell people to aim for their butt crack when bringing their hips around the pole! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I'm on Google+ and would love to have a circle of pole friends, too! I've added treepoles and minicoopergrl already. Msg me in my inbox https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I'm glad I stumbled across this post. I'm in the same position and like nymphdancer, I've been poling for 5 years but feel as if I only have 1 year in actual pole time. Between a full-time job, being a mommy to two young ones (ages 5 and 7), and my husband, I hardly find spare time to breathe much less pole. I have my pole setup in my living room so it's easily accessible but I never get on it! If I try to and my kids are still up, they want to get on the pole too; plus I can't practice the sensual side if they're around https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif. LOL! Then after they go to bed and the household chores are done, I'm just too tired. I still haven't found that perfect balance but am glad to know I am not the only one!
I am making a commitment to start practicing every Sunday morning, though. I'm moving my pole to our unused studio/storage in the back of our house and converting that to my "pole room". Hopefully that works and that I can get my little ones to honor the fact that when Mommy is in there, it is my time to exercise and not their time to play on the pole!

oh, forgot to mention that my hubby said i could make the extra room into my own pole studio regardless if i dance for him or not but that he just REALLY wants me to dance for him! kinda of cute, huh?

omg … i have the same issue as Queenie426 and one of the other ladies (thanks, tarah!) on this forum sent me here! i've been poling for a little over 5 years, have had my pole for 4 years, and my husband has NEVER seen me pole. sure, he's seen me practicing tricks and i've asked him to be my spotter when i was teaching myself something new, but i've never danced for him. he just asked me yesterday to dance for him and now i'm a nervous wreck! i can dance sensually for the ladies in my studio just fine but when i think of dancing in front of my hubby, my mind goes blank.
but now my hubby has uped the ante: if I dance for him, i can buy another pole (xpole xpert 45mm titanium gold) AND convert our unused studio into my own pole/exercise studio! so, i'm going to read all the articles you ladies referenced and maybe get some ideas and work up the nerve. wish me luck … and i'll let you know how it goes!
(btw i'm not as good as you'd think after 5 years; i only get to practice about 1x/week 🙁

That's Jenyne when she did a workshop at our studio here in Honolulu! She's such a great teacher and an extremely nice person! I was fortunate to be able to take an advanced class from her. (Btw our studio here in Honolulu is called Fit For A Goddess. Drop by if any of you find yourself on Oahu! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif 😉

Oh gosh … I'm old so for me it would probably be some disco or early 80's tune. I actually think the first tune I bought was "Funkytown" by Lipps Incorporated. Oh gawd … now that's embarrassing! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Thank gosh for this thread! I was just in a chat room last night and asked the girls there is I was the oldest poler on this site. I’m going to be 42 next month but feel just the same as I did in my 20’s. My life is sure different from my 20’s (marriage, kids, career) but I don’t feel any older, know what I mean? I’ve been poling for about 3-1/2 years and can do many moves that young ones in class can’t do. In fact, I’m teaching them how to do them! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
Lilbit – I just took a look at your profile and pics and … Dang, girl! You look good!
