Oh wow Veena, what a total asshole that guy is!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I’m so sorry you were subjected to such jackassery. Ugh, that is exactly the reason I will probably never have the balls to post a video on YouYube, the ignorance and hate there makes me want to cry. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
Double ugh….I have some of the same issues with having my family accept the pole dancing…..my husband’s been pretty cool (and of course turned on https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif ) by it….but also a little worried about our kids, and our families reactions to it. Both our parents have seen the pole and have been surprisingly silent about it so far…..but the more I do this the more I’m dreaming about doing something lucrative with it – Veena you have been such an inspiration! BTW I really admire how open and honest you are here – you are all kinds of fabulous! Thank you SO much for starting this supportive site! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
Anyway…..if I started to try teaching or something, that obviously brings it to a new level where I would have to promote myself as a dancer, and my husband’s quite apprehensive. Ugh, especially after he heard Rush Limbaugh talk a little about pole dancing on his show today and lamented about how ‘sad’ our society is now…. bleehhhhhhh https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif
On a happier note that’s not really related to the topic….. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I just HAVE to relay this story about my 3-year old daughter… she loves to make funny movies on my macbook, videoing herself singing and stuff, well yesterday she was doing that singing ‘row row row your boat’ and ending it with instead of ‘life is but a dream’ ‘ life is but a spaghetti’ , or a hairbrush or something silly. Well she did one where she ended it with ‘Life is but a POLE’ and procedeeded to finish her song with a swing on my dancepole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif She’s the raddest little girl https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

I think Amethyst and Cherry are both really cute!
My name ‘Lily’ was given to me by a friend… at first I was like ‘I am SO not a Lily’, but it grew on me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Damn Novadog! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I agree Pole-twista, all the injuries definitely make me feel tougher https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
Thanks for making me feel better everyone https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif -
ITA with so much of the advice given https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif It really is incredibly simple – burn more calories than you take in and you will lose weight. Finding exercise you love is key (POLE https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif ) and enjoying the freshest, most wholesome food you can afford…..in healthy portions of course. Best of luck sweetie – I also agree you look great now!

Welcome Hollydee! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif I agree the bat cave set-up sounds perfect! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif What are the poles like you’ve been dancing on? I’ve been learning on the X-pole and most recently the Bobbi’s pole, both are awesome IMO – I think getting a pole similar to what you’re used to would be a good place to start – can’t wait for you to post a video!

Lame. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif Sorry you got rooked on a piece of crap pole, I was so excited that Carmen Electra was promoting a dancepole – but not anymore! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif

MemberMarch 24, 2009 at 1:57 am in reply to: trying to convince parents pole dancing isn’t skanky!Neke I have seen such incredible dancers in Las Vegas (spearmint rhino) – doing tricks that made my jawdrop https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif I wish I saw more girls who actually got up on the pole in clubs near me, I am like https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif that the Palace in San Antonio has taken their poles out of their club! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif This dancer Joy is one of my favvvvesss http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkCIF7-Tmc0" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
omg Jacq I was dying at your post https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif my parents and in-laws think I’m such a tramp, sooo embarassing – and my MIL is the worst, she always makes comments just like what your mom said – she’s so freaked out by our mirrors and the pole, and the fact we have sex in her house https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif
haha, anyway – good luck Kerriou! just keep it athletic and classy. And fun.

I took me a loooong time to just hold myself up on the pole – definitely do other strength training. I did alot of push-ups in the beginning, and I also practice being inverted by going upside down against a wall and just try to work on feeling comfortable and using my arms to hold my weight. I also do pole workouts without any dancing, where I just practice pulling myself up on each side to work both sides of my body equally. And yep – just keep on trying and trying, you’ll get there! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

oh wow – so scary! That’s awesome you caught yourself like that https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif

Thanks so much girls https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif It’s feeling a better today – I have some large pillows I may set down around the pole, and/or I need to get my husband to spot me.

Hi Solomia! It was nice to chat with you a little on Friday https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Cool pic Sascha! You look great – and the gold pole is so pretty!

Hello Shannon! That’s so cool your dad made you a pole! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I have to say I’m so obsessed with Australian pole dancers – are you taking any lessons at a studio? I would do anything to take a lesson at Bobbi’s. Welcome to Studio Veena https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif I’m brand new here too, it’s a cool community.

The pain does go away! I hardly flinch after I’ve done a move for a few weeks. And remember: BRUISES ARE SEXY!
lol I love it! You really have to look at it that way – I am continually shocked at how brutal this sport is. I agree – the only cure is to keep on keepin’ ON!
