Oh, damn. I think you’re right. I should take a video and check that out. WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF IT EARLIER OMG.

Think I need to mention that I’m willing to cut back on practising a LOT but not to actually not attend class. ._. I paid for the whole term already and it’s quite a large sum for a student (I work so I can afford pole classes on my allowance, haha).

THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESPONSE. (:

[junkie]

azblanco – Sure thing! 😀 If you ever do drop by, let me know and we can pole together! 😀

[junkie]

Well. If anybody ends up wanting to pole in Malaysia. Um. I’m here! (Very much out of the way for most people, though :c )

[junkie]

Pleaser. I order through my studio so it’s easy compared to other brands.

[junkie]

@Polebull Thank you! I will. 😀 I feel the same way. It IS very empowering.

@IrishOrla GOOD LUCK! (that reminds me, I need to settle on a theme and a stage name as well ackkkk)

[junkie]

Yes, Charley, it does! Thanks. I’ll remember that. I don’t really mind so much doing something simple. I’m just hoping I don’t fall or anything! Haha. I’m not really aiming to win.

I’m sorry to hear about your last competition! I’m sure you’ll be completely kickass in your next one.

Thanks for your advice!

[junkie]

Thank you so much, ORGANIC ANGEL! I’m going to print out your advice and look at it everyday. I’m so nervous but trying to stay positive. 😀

@Koidragon AHHHH HAHAHA THAT SOUNDS AWESOME. But with my level of clumsiness I'll end up kicking my pole over.

Oh yes, grappling is very hard. And very impressive.

Dear lord, congratulations! It IS very exciting! Ladies being all extra sexy and badass thanks to you!

@bonitagirl I actually had to Google kajukenbo. Hybrid martial art. WOW. You must be pretty dangerous by now. Six years. I CAN'T HELP IT BUUUUTTT "The couple that spars together stays together". HEHEHE.

@KungFuPuddyTat Ahhh, your kitty sounds so adorable!!! Cat style kung fu! 😀 That sounds totally kickass by the way. Ninja Poler!

@KoiDragon Ughh, I think grappling is so cool but I've never been able to master even the most basic moves. ): Huge props to you! You're like the jack of all trades of martial arts AND you pole. Too cool.

@portableninja I'd love to see a video of that! It sounds really fabulous!

@scorpiotrickster HELLO FELLOW TAEKWONDO PRACTITIONER! 😀 OOOH. You could try tricking, maybe?

I like @SmilingFox's idea of a butterfly kick. I think it's the most visually appealing of all the kicks. 

@Runemist34 I know a lot of people say that karate and taekwondo are very similar (including a friend of mine who has blackbelts in both) but I'm really very curious about karate.

@Poleluver STILL! A fight is a fight! Keep being badass. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif

@Koidragon Wow! That is a huge variety! Striking, grappling AND weapons. You must be an intense fighter. Wouldn't want to come up against you in a dark alley!

@SmilingFox That sounds incredibly awesome. Praying mantis kung fu! I don't know much about it except for what I've seen on Fight Science.

@Runemist34 That's karate, right?

At the moment I'm doing capoeira and taekwondo. I've played around with boxing and ninjutsu but I didn't have any chemistry with either. Recently started capoeira and fell in love. I think I'm a kicker. Haha.

It's great to see such a huge variety here! I wonder if there's a way to combine martial arts and pole… Hmmm. HAHAHA!

I'm a law student intending to specialise in human rights and especially rights for women and the LGBTQ community (we're a bit backwards about these things in my country, unfortunately). :/ 

I teach English part-time to pay for my pole classes. Hehe.

[junkie]

Haha! Same here! I got into pole dancing because I felt like I needed to be more feminine.

I see myself as more genderqueer than actually female.

I study at Bobbi's so I've only ever used spin. :/ But I hear that apparently spin looks nicer? It does cause a little bit of motion sickness, though…

HI! I'm from the Bobbi's in Malaysia! 😀 I've just enrolled in Inter 1, though…
