    Thanks! I am planning on paying for the lessons, I used to have them before I stopped poling in May 🙁 I also think I am a lot stronger now than I was before because I do a lot of yoga, barre and BUTI yoga, Hopefully my strength is more even on both sides now and that will make it a little easier to learn both sides for pole. I know I will get frustrated on my non-dominant side and impatient on my dominant side but I will just have to remember to be patient and go slow!

    There is drinking in my classes as well (I’m not sure what my studio’s policy is on drinking at parties, however). They don’t provide any alcohol but it is encouraged to bring your own. I don’t think people are getting crazy drunk or anything but I would prefer if there was no drinking. I understand that it gives some people more confidence… and yes, pole class is a fun time hanging out with the girls… but when we are learning inverts and other difficult moves that require coordination and strength, it just doesn’t make any sense! I wouldn’t drink while I am doing kickboxing or yoga, so why during pole?
