For me, its not just the Bobbi's girls I love – I love all the Aussie dancers! OMG, they are all so talented and freaking gorgeous!!! I love how they put on a show from start to finnish! Just watching the Ms Pole Dance Austrailia promo vids make me want to pack up and move there for a year. My own Eat, Pray, Pole journey!!!

I was going to suggest Veenas idea of using a foam roller before stretching. Im also experincing the same issue with my knee. My hamstrings are super tight (I try to have a particular someone massage them at home but he wants a 'reward' for being nice, nope rather pay for a massage instead, LOL)

SO MANY OPTIONS!!!! but thats a good thing!
Check out the various pole manufactuers, also look into how much its going to be to ship them etc. You can look for a local studio near you – lots of studios offer an intro class free of charge. If a studio is out of your reach THIS IS THE BEST RESOURCE FOR LESSONS! You can take Veenas lessons (which I still gotta remind myself to sign up for them for the conditioning), or you can ask lots of questions on the lovely forum (I promise we dont bite too hard :))
You can order xpole here, you can order a PS pole off of my website – http://www.team-lulu.com,

Like Chem said, if you like the style of the Xpole bag, get a snowboarding bag. I saw a few of them while waiting in line at the airport a few months ago and it would totally fit. Im currently working on storage bag for my ssa, im hoping to submit it to them as a possible option for a carrying bag. I also do like like the quick pin pull and your instantly on spin.
When we opened the boxes for my stage at AGT, I asked if we could clean it down with rubbing alcohol. Having past experiences with new poles out of the box, I knew there could be something film like on the pole from packaging. My producer was impressed how easily it came together as well (she had only worked with xstage previously). I wipe mine down with alcohol but I want to get some of the cleaner Itac makes, I used it at the Annapolis studio on the brass poles and I liked the way it cleaned.
Your best bet is to give PS a call. Erica has been great since shes joined the PS team and is really helpful as well.
Just like everyone else said, before you start poling, just do a quick saftey check.

Funny thing is the footage that they used was from round one which is no music round!! Another girl used that song as her performance song and put that in the segment instead.
My on going joke about that segment is when I go and get my award for Peoples Choice, I look like one of those elderly ladies who get selected to be on The Price Is Right! Wheres my Bob Barker sweater???
Let me tell you what I do with hate mail – laugh and delete! I dont read them if I stumble across them online at all. If your good at what you do, your gonna have haters. It used to get to me and if they catch me on the right day, it will totally blow out my ego!

I did the workout for the first time over the weekend. I do like how they show you the moves and then you do a routine with them. I also like the tips too. I cant wait for vol 2. There are some I cant do now, but I know I can later. I will have to see if I can find the clip but the goalie from the Washington Capitals does the bucking move as part of his warm up – IN FULL GOALIE GEAR ON THE ICE!!
Now my inner TV production nerd comes out, while I loved the way the DVD was set up, some of the editing I wasnt too crazy about. But thats just me and since I went to school to edit and things like that I notice them pretty fast. So if you need a new editor, im totally available! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif :)

I have a little bit of everything for pole. I have stuff from Bad Kitty, Lululemon, Under Armour, Danskin etc. I also wear cheer shorts as well. Im always on the hunt for something cute but offers lots of support – I have big boobs and its hard to find something that is supportive and cute without it being super pricey. I like BK for the style but I like UA for all the compression stuff they make.
At the Ms VA comp, I wore all Under Armour. I did that mostly b/c Im from MD and UA is a MD based business, why not represent them???

My wrists having been doing that a long time, long before I started pole. Do you do any stretching with them? I sit at a desk most of the day and do alot of typing, I try to roll mine out and stretch them often. It offers some relief but the clicking/popping noise doesnt go away. From what ive been told that its the fluid in your wrists that keep them mobile form bubbles and thats whats causing the popping noise.

I tried taking it and really didnt see a difference. I was also getting sick from it. Not all the time but the occasional vomit.

Memphis – you should of seen the first one. They zoomed in on a friend of mine as the voice over goes 'and shes competing against girls this size'. OMG, shes a very good friend of mine. Or when im trying to put on my heels and im having a hard time putting them on, they try to chalk it up due to my size its hard to put on the heels. What dancer hasnt had an issue putting their heels on???
The good thing is from both segments, ive gotten lots of positive feedback. I havent gotten any hate mail which is quite shocking. The hate mail has dramatically gone down the past few months.

I like doing spin from time to time as a change of pace. Studio is all static and my stage is spin/static. I like the PS pin b/c its a quick pull and its spin time. I dont know if your planning on competing but most big comps have a static and spin pole. I havent done alot on spin since I only get at home practices to do that.
-
did you also read that if your over 350lbs youget to eat for free???? If they arent encouraging enough….
-
Thanks everyone!!! Ive gotten alot of good feedback since it went to air. I can only imagine if my Americas Got Talent segment goes to air!
-
Yep, Inside Edition wanted to do a follow up story from the first one. I didnt think they were going to air it so fast! Its sweeps month in TV world so I was quite shocked they wanted to do another story.
I will get a DVD copy of both segments but right now this is the transcript of it
