    I agree that the Quick Lesson updates are very helpful and I’d like to see them continue. They and some of your updated advanced moves pushed me to rejoin for the other year 🙂

    Occasionally, I know we all see pole clips on instagram or youtube and wonder about breaking down those moves. Is there a way to submit to you for your consideration to break down into Quick Lesson?

    I am 55 and began poling at 47. I have stopped and started a couple of times due to life commitments and injury, but I now teach and embrace the journey. Greta is a great role model, but there are many over 40, over 50 and over 60 polers who are beautiful dancers, strong pole people, and fabulous people. Pole is not just for the young and taut…lol

    I went with a Garmin Vivofit. The battery life is one year. I can swim with it as well as just walk around with it. It displays steps, goal and steps away from goal, mileage, calories, sleep, time, date and has a heart rate monitor hook up. I use the HR monitor when I am running. It links to an app, which has improved 1,000 percent since Christmas. The garmin.com laptop link is amazing – offers challenges, etc. My coworkers who have the fitbit like mine because I don’t have to charge it nightly and I have readouts on the band.

    I posted on this thread 7 months ago, lamenting about a need for more advanced lessons and Studio Veena has responded big time! Not only have some of the more advanced and popular moves been added with detailed breakdown, the quick lessons are great for those of us who teach pole part time and need inspiration for combos and tricks that more students are demanding. This site is well organized and the daily updates are little idea ticklers. Even if you don’t have a pole at home, the ability to get stretches and strength moves that you can do at the gym or on a playground make the lessons on this site a great buy.

    I’m so sorry that you are shouldering this burden. Your mom is blessed with a loving daughter. You’re in my prayer chain….Take care of you and her

    HI Alice Colleen – I purchased the shorter of the two length offerings and its working out just fine. My friends and I are able to wrap our bodies and legs for extensions. Leesi is also very accessible, so you might want to write her and ask for guidance.

    The value of something is determined by what someone is willing to pay. Sold it yesterday for $500 cash. 🙂

    Tiffany has had on and off health issues. I have ordered from her without issue and had excellent communication. She’s on Facebook too, so there are other ways to contact her. Her shoes are amazing.

    I’m on Long Island, just outside of NYC. I teach at a studio called Body Mind and Pole. It’s beautiful, has one 40mm and the 7 other poles are 45s. I know we could pole jam there for the cost of renting the studio hours….thoughts? http://www.bodymindpole.net

    I am subscribed but I totally agree with those who are looking for more advanced lessons. While I realize there’s a lot of work that goes into planning vid lessons, it’s also a matter of competition with the other popular online site. SV is def a better buy than the other site, but advanced girls need a reason to stay here.
