OK girls and guys, the date is set for our 1st SV Ontario Pole Jam. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif SUN , FEB, 28 at 3PM TO 6PM at Aradia Fitness Brampton studio. 57 MILL STREET NORTH, suite 210, Brampton, Ontario.The studio is a historical building called The Old Shoe Factory.The studio is large, spacious, beautiful hardwood floor with ten 11-12 foot brass poles. The fee is $20 each for the 3 hours of studio time. Pole practice there is usually 15 dollars an hour, so 20 dollars is reasonable for 3 hours of blissful poling with great friends. We should also each bring some kind of munchie/finger food, so we have a potluck table to refuel between poling. If it goes well, we can have a pole jam on a regular basis. I’m gonna start another post on the pole jam/competition forum. Please let us know if you plan on joining us on all the fun. Maybe, some of you can carpool if you are from out of town. Any questions, don’t hesitate to email me.
Can’t wait to meet everyone, Joni

Sounds good! I’m in! Lets do it sooner than May!
btw, where can I go to learn aerial silks???
Hi ManCandy, I take aerial silk at the Circus Arts School in Toronto (Sheppard and allan area). They have everything there also. Trapeze, aerial hoop, silks etc. I also have a membership at Aradia fitness Brampton. I might just join you guys and gals at the Night of Arabian class. I know Mike from our Aradia Christmas party. Lets all definitely have a pole jam. I’m away on vacation the last week of march and first week of april. But anytime around those times are good for me. I’m sure for a small fee each , we can use ARADIA Brampton studio at a historical building. It is huge, beautiful and has ten 11-12 foot 2 inch brass poles. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Sundays at 3.pm, They are finished with all the classes.Or sat afternoon-evening. Or if anyone else has any other suggestions for dates and times. Lets make this happen. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif The USA polers are having all the fun with their competitions and pole jams. It’s time for us to also have some fun. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif

Hi Stephanie, welcome to SV. I live in mississauga but work at Sick Kids downtown. I have been poling for 3 year. I have also started taking aerial silk. GIRLS AND BOYS, we should totally have a Ontario pole jam. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif May sounds good. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

You are amazing. Loved every minute of it. So strong and sexy. I loved how you pole right into that chair. Your spinderella from the cross ankle release is flawless. And of course your gemini climb into knee hold is breathtaking. Great job. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I usually go into a split grip ayasha from the butterfly first.( point of contact-my hook leg -knee to ankle). Then I extend that butterfly hooking at the ankle. Then take my hooked leg off the pole, lowering it into a v split aka ayasha. The split grip has to be solid with the top hand pulling you into the pole and bottom hand, elbow locked straight, pushing you away from the pole. Hope that helps. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif

Oh, this is easy for me because I’m so in love with myself. I really like the way I look now as I was such an ugly duckling child who was teased alot. Then came the 60lbs I gained after the twins that took me 2 years of feeling depressed and unattractive till I finally said enough is enough. So I worked hard to lose the weight. Now ,I am in the best shape of my life at 43. I just love myself. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
I love my lips https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
I love my tiny waist and big boobs https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_queen.gif
I love that at 43,I still don’t have a single wrinkle https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif
I love my strength https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif
I love that 20 year olds still hit on me. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif -

I guess I’m lucky, we have a great instructor /owner https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_queen.gif of our fitness studio who lets us come in and show and try any advance moves we saw on you tube or dvds. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif We are at the master pro level class and we each bought our own crash mats. When ever we have a new advance acrobatic type of move, we explain to her what we are about to do and she spots us with our mats. She never limit our learning but guides us. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif We all progressed very well as a result. We are thought to tuck our head towards our chest when we are falling and grab the pole as fast as we can. We practice moves like superman fall from the top of the pole, SM Flip, chartwheel mounts spinning scorpio , etc..

Aerial silk in only 9′? Wow, that’s harder than pole with 7′.
I know its not that high https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif but I get my height aerial practice at the circus school where the silks are 30 feet high. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif But I will still be able to do short climbs and drops and at least practice the sequence of the wraps at 9 feet high. The good news with it being only 9 feet is if I’m practicing on my own and fall , its a shorter fall to the ground. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif
Thank goodness for my crash mats. -
I had the exact same problem with no room to do spins. I keep hitting my dresser and bowflex as a result all my wide spins sucked. I could do the superman fall before I could do a RG. It wasn’t until I joined a pole studio did I have the freedom to spin wide and finally learned all my spins. I did finally managed to talk my husband to let me have the guest room as my pole and aerial silk workout room. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif We cleared the whole room and is putting in a Platnium stages extreme portable pole. The room is wide with 9 foot ceiling. Its not that high for aerial silk but I can still do some climbs ,poses and short drops from it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif
