WOW! Didn’t expect so many responses on this topic! LOL You ladies totally rock…to the younger ladies…you give me the courage to keep pushing myself…and to the ladies closer to my age..KEEP ROCKIN IT!! cause we have to show the rest of the world that there is life worth getting off your butts for!!
I started this thread because I don’t have any friends my age where I live, I’ve been rejected by the women of my community because they don’t approve of how I dress, act, or live. I have no problem with that….I happen to like myself and I’m happy with what I do…I have been embraced by the younger generations and they support and encourage me…my adult children are awesome as well!! And EVERYONE on SV has contributed to my mental health in a very positive way…TY ladies and gents…and a HUGE TY to VEENA for giving me the extra little push I needed a few years back. I intend to lift, pole, and step on stage in 2010 at the young age of 54 for my 1st Figure Competition
I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!

Thanks ladies! I know with lifting and clean eating 6 times a day it has made a huge difference in my life…I looked like SH*T before….sometimes I wish it didn’t take me til I was almost 50 to start getting fit…but if I were to change anything I wouldn’t be where I am now…and I like where I am now! LOL

Poletwista is right…so I won’t repeat what she stated…I was 51 when I started teaching myself to pole…I posted vids on youtube and was totally humiliated by rude comments( a lot due to my age!). SV didn’t exist yet, I almost gave up…but was encouraged by Veena to keep going…this site is very empowering, It has helped me feel good about what I do to take care of myself…please post a vid of your progress…we’ve all been there (ha ha I still am!)..we are always our own worst critic…Oh and WELCOME TOO!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I agree ladies…I was one of the women that fought and marched for women’s rights many years ago…I was also a "Bra Burner!" LOL When I was involved in the movement the women I gathered with were all about equal rights…that INCLUDING the right to be sensual and sexy in our expression of ourselves as women…it was supposed to be about our right to do anything a man was allowed to do and gain equality in that ie: pay etc. and the right to choose between working outside the home or staying home to raise our babies….somewhere along the line the extreme feminists threw a wrench in it!!
So ladies!! ROCK ON WITH YOUR SEXY SELFS!!! LOL https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif

From my instructor at pole4fitness that I have just rejoined.Went today and finally managed a Gemini on my own!!
3 times.Yipee,but then she wanted me to go into a inverted thigh hold.I couldnt,I can do them both on their own,but putting the two together just hurts so much.And I get confused when Im upside down at what Im supposed to be doing next!! its my age! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gifI have just been looking at Veenas youtube clip on Cartwheel handspring,It looks appealing whilst my legs are soooo sore I cant wear my trousers https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif
OK debbie…we’ll have none of that! LOL It’s not your age!! I’m 53 and it has nothing to do with age. Some things are easy for others to master, we all have our own pace…don’t be so hard on yourself hun…you’ll get there!!

DUH! EVERYONE!! I haven’t been on much so don’t know many of you yet, however your all so kind and encouraging to each other…I was going through some tuff stuff and had wonderful support, the messages I received touched my heart! I’m grateful for all of YOU!!!
I do want to give a special well deserved *HUG* to the woman that is my role model and has been since my pole beginning…VEENA I LOVE YOU GIRL! You have been so instrumental in helping empower us women…you nurture us as if we were family. you encouraged me when I was ready to give up (youtube and the nasty comments regarding my age! LOL). Thank you for bringing the world a little closer, making us women stronger, and making mine so much brighter and healthier!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
