Lyme are you generally sweaty or dry handed?

Also if you’re not using a dehumidifier or a humidifier depending on what your air is like in the winter, or you’re letting the temp swing a lot in the pole room, that can cause some of the sweating you’re talking about.

Do a video showing moves on both sides. Or do a video showing you learning a new move on both sides!

I’ve taken so much time off I think I might do one of me re-learning moves on both sides. Everything feels a little weird so maybe I should take advantage of it and balance myself out on the list of moves I could only do one-sided. 🙂

Utter bullshit. I’d keep a lawyer on call and document everything well like webs talked about.

Now because everyone’s given thoughtful advice, can I just say…dude seriously f*ck those people! WTF! F*cking assholes! Unbelievable…coworkers keep your noses up your own assholes with the rest of your head and mind your own damn business. People suck.

Remember the original instruction was to rub the toothpaste on, then wash it off with warm water. There shouldn’t be any grit left on the hands to be scratching the finish.

I’m gonna give that a try today! I also have super sweaty hands and sometimes it just feels hopeless when they get bad.

Easy, 3 steps.

Step 1: remove genes from body.
Step 2: replace genes with Anastasia skukhtarova’s genes
Step 3: execute move perfectly.

I’ve had the privelege of working on the incredibly well-seasoned stainless steel poles at the Michelle Mynx Academy in St. Louis. They are the stickiest poles I have ever used. I’m talking high polish stainless poles that have like 5+ years of daily grind and they are so sticky, so perfect. Literally the poles in her studio are my favorite poles on this earth. Really well broken in stainless is an amazing experience, if you’ve only used stainless poles that are new or have only been in the studio a few years, I really suggest seeking out a totally broken in stainless pole before you write off the finish.

Upandover what fold methods did you try? Im not a virgin but I am anatomically small as many women are so the issue is quite common to virgins and non-virgins alike.

There’s some really good YouTube videos that talk about different folding and insertion and removal methods that are more comfortable. I also like to wet mine with a little water so I don’t get pinchy sensations.

I would appeal to the experience aspect more than the age aspect. Everyone’s aware that the body and training needs of a person over 30 are generally a little different than those of a person under 25 or even under 20. I don’t think that needs to be the focus of an advertisement, as long as a gentler teaching aspect is implied. Maybe something like, appealing to 30’s as a time when you get things figured out and grow into yourself as an empowered woman…pole for the woman who has it figured out, who knows what she wants. A challenging but doable and fun workout that focuses on bringing out the powerful inner woman you’ve worked so hard to build. They say everything gets better after 30 right?

I should do this tonight. I’m stiff as a board :-/

Just weighing in to say I’m also a slippery x-pole person…I love my xpole but it just isn’t the best grip surface for me. My preference is high polish stainless steel, which is a little unusual, but I do have really sweaty skin and if I’m on a nice warm, well-seasoned stainless pole, I absolutely stick like glue.

I used to obsess over the slipperyness factor, and it does get frustrating, but I love x poles so I just try to adapt and work around it as best as I can. I try to moderate temperate in my space and keep good air flow, I soap-and-water wash myself off with a rag at intervals if I need to, or I take short 2-5min breaks to stretch and cool down just enough to get the sweat under control but keep my skin and muscles warm and then go back to it. Anyway, you’re not alone! The chrome just isn’t ideal for some of us.

I don’t care why anyone smokes, medicinally or recreationally. There’s nonreasonforthr penalties for it to be so high. What I am against is the systematic ruining of young lives over nothing but pot use. The legal penalties need to reflect that this is a substance somewhat on par with alcohol and in no way on par with other illegal substances. It is potentially pschologically but not chemically habit forming. The risks to the public from cannabis use are essentially non-existent. It makes me so angry when I see some 20 year old whose life is over because they got a felony possession charge because a cop saw them smoking in their living room through a window and one corner of their property is within 1000 feet of a school zone.

Generally I am against mandatory sentences and you find a lot of that in drug laws.

I would love love love to break into the performance pole sector for some extra cash. As for club dancing, I have no problems with it and have long thought about trying to pick up shifts at a topless club. But I also have serious bitch factor sometimes and I would probably suck at hustling…I let the boys come to me until they’re close enough to ensnare completely 😉

Korean?? Maybe that’s why we haven’t heard of him. I love the up close shots in the video, you can really see how easy each individual move is for him and the degree of control he has.

Becca, I’m a law student and I can’t give you legal advice, but this is me telling you:

LAWYER. UP. Lawyer up. Right now. Before it gets any worse. Tell your lawyer everything you’ve told us, save copies of any physical evidence (like the condoms in the locker and the note). But get a freaking lawyer and get one now. Many will even give you a consultation for free.
