    hooked, others have had problems, but x pole designed a new bottom loading pole that supposedly eliminated the previous problems of stuck parts. They have fantastic customer service, you talk to actual humans right away when you call.
    I think that we somehow put it together strangely when we got the new parts and thats why it was still spinny. ever since putting it back up, it’s been perfect again.

    my husband took it down and put it back up today, and the problem is fixed. He doesn’t know what happened, or what he did to fix it, but problem solved! Thanks

    Yes Jennas, same time tomorrow (thursday) night!!!! Can’t wait! It was great last week!
    Sima,
    I think for dancer flexy you need to stretch everyday, I’ve been attempting it everyday, but had a mini vacation this past weekend at a music festival and couldn’t quite find the time or opportunity to stretch. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif The object of the studio veena bendy buddies stretch is to meet up once a week, share stretching techniques (which was exactly what happened last week) and share progress, support, etc. Hope to see you there tomorrow night!!!!

    Thanks Desca!
    I was sooooo happy about the turnout, and sapphire leading the stretch was probably a once in a lifetime opportunity, but awesome!!!! I discovered I’ve been doing my splits stretch wrong the whole time, and once I did it the right way, I was much further than I thought!!!! Thank you for the compliment on the miniature, I think he’s pretty cute too, but I’m biased since I grew him. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
    Stardust, I’m in the process of trying to get an international day going as well, I think if we do it in the morning here in the states, it will be eveningish for those of you all over the world!!! I will let you know!
    See you all on thursday!!!

    July 7, 2010 at 2:17 pm in reply to: Bendy Buddies Progress Thread!!! Thursday Chat!

    Hmmm.. am I right in guessing this will be 1.30 am Irish time? Or have I confused times?! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif
    https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I just looked it up online and it looks like you are right. hmmmmm. This is so hard with everyones different time zones. Maybe someone could start a stretching chat for another day/night for those closer to your time zone? I want you there polefairy!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif We could always aim for another chat on sat or sunday mornings (probably closer to night for you) so that most everyone could meet for that one!!! I’ll talk about it in chat tomorrow night.

    Thanks Veena! How exciting!
    I was going to post my favorite stretches in the chat, but decided it would be helpful to have them in the forum for referencing purposes!
    All these stretches can be held for 2-5 minutes. I’ll be posting my measurements tonight after a good warm stretch!!!

    Ok! I’m making an executive decision on the meeting time and will also start our official thread later today!
    I’m thinking the time we should meet on thursday night is:
    5:30 pm Pacific Time
    6:30 Mountain Time
    7:30 Central
    8:30 Eastern
    *I’m putting aside 2 hrs for the stretch, as I want to stretch my entire body with 2-5 minutes per stretch.
    I tried to find a time that would hopefully not be too early or too late for anyone. I realize that this may not be the same for those outside of the U.S. but I HOPE we can somehow make it work!!!
    Let me know if this time works for everyone! I would hate to not have anyone make it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

    Ok everyone. I need help figuring out a time frame to meet. Will you post a few hour period that you would prefer to do it on thurs night (we will probably only really meet for about 1-2 hrs), and then I’ll just find a common time that hopefully works for all time zones. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I’m very excited. I started my daily stretching routine last night! Going to do it again tonight!!!!

    Yes, next thurs night!!!! I’ll talk to people about it in chat today (friday) as well! We will work on times to meet throughout the week…or we could just have an open 5 hr period or something.
    angel! That’s awesome! So I could clip it to my laptop? What are you selling it for? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I’m not very educated in the world of webcams, but that sounds great!!!
    I love StudioVeena.com!

    Alright, it looks like thurs is the common day so far…and yes, the time zone thing may become an issue. I’m Mountain time and would prefer to meet anytime between 5-10pm. My window is pretty open and I can be even more flexible if need be (ha ha flexible..).
    I will start a new thread, where we can share the stretches we like to do, our starting measurments, our goals and we can meet up on next thurs night to stretch together and report progress if any. For those who can’t do thurs, I would love to have another chat night also, I think two nights a week for stretching chat is a good, considering we should be doing it everyday.
    Post preferred times please and I will get started on our stretchy report thread! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

    If you can find someone on this site, that dances at S Factor in L.A. then, they would know sheila kelley who taught martha stewart pole dancing on her show! So you just need to find an S factor student, which I’m sure we have somewhere on here.

    I’ve checked out the splits in 6 weeks thing, but reading it without pics was like https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_shaking.gif for me. I kept reading the test over and over and it just doesn’t make sense to me. I would love to get the splits in 6 weeks though! It would be worth adding those stretches to our list!
    I took a stretching and flexibility workshop about a month ago, I have all the stretches she taught us written down, some of them feel so good! She told us to hold each stretch, breathing through it, for 2-5 minutes.
    What nights/days work (or don’t work) for our chat/weekly check in? We will try to make it work for everyone!
    I’m so excited!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif

    Veena! I was actually thinking of that after I wrote the post! Yes!!! I love it! I’ve been needing an excuse to buy a webcam too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I worry that I don’t have proper form when stretching (straight back, feet flexed, feet pointed, etc) so this would be extremely helpful for me.
    I’m really not flexible right now either. I know I will be embarassed when I give my measurments, but I want to change that!
    I don’t usually have time to do any kind of workout until at night when my husband is home from work and can keep our son busy, I’m sure we will be able to find a time that will work for most.

    xpoles website addresses fake xpoles. as previously said, the domes are made of plastic and have a black grip instead of the clear that an authentic x pole has.
    Here is the link:
