Hello,
I’m a little blown away. I go to this studio four times a week and also subscribe to veena too. I am 5’3 and about 185 and no one has ever said anything about my weight.
I haven’t been taught to invert yet. When I am in mixed class of more than one level of polers I am told to work on my tucks to build strength. It works, you do get stronger. They have a pretty strict checklist that has to be signed off by instructors before you can advance to next level of class.
I am really sorry that you had that experience. It’s a shame.
