Hmmm, did they pull on the adjuster part of it? The mount is still secure in the ceiling, right? If it is, I bet it's fine and they had climbed on/pulled on the adjuster rod. If you can give the pole a good shake and it doesn't budge, you should be ok.

My training doesn't count either, but his insurance is still much cheaper than the other quote I got. I think the more instructors that get this specific for POLE insurance, the cheaper the rates will go!

Contact Mark through http://www.insurance4poledancers.com. Policies are $270 a year, less if you're a member of the accredited pole groups (I am not).

@Charley, I don't have Netflix, do you have a link to the DM dvd's? I did a search and couldn't find them on amazon or otherwise…

When I choreo, I always do it to the music I'll be performing to…first I dance to the song over and over, letting the music wash over me and 'feeling' it, often the movements and sequences and the unique flow for that song arise out of that. I wouldn't and don't necessarily choreo the song start to finish, just maybe something flows in the middle and you build around that. For me, it's not a set system but pretty organic.
The key is the music, though, at least for me!

Do you have the book? I love the book, and there are lots of exercises for bringing out your EC (erotic creature) in it…

WOW–thank you! I will def be trying some of these products, and yes, great prices! I hate buying cosmetics because they have ingredients I try to avoid.

I teach both hoop and pole, either private lessons or small groups. I teach out of my home or rent a small fitness studio that's nearby. I don't have a lot of time, like polekitten said, so it's a very part time thing for me (2-3 a week). I've also been approached by a pole studio to be an instructor there too, so that's an exciting possibility.
For both hoop and pole, I never set out to teach. I had people approach me multiple times to give lessons, and finally I moved in that direction. It's something you really have to enjoy, and I really do.
One thing I have learned–don't give the store away. I have always, always charged for my classes. I think that's so important. When you start off not charging, it's hard to start asking your students for money later on.
Do you live in a metro area? I also make money performing just by having been 'seen' out and about hooping..this takes some time though (and luck). Having a website promoting you and your skills will be important too. My hoop site is http://www.cachethoops.com
GL!

I'm taking Angel's course too. 🙂 Like Kobajo, it's so affordable and the anatomy and physiology part of it really appeals to me, because i DON'T have a background in that though I wish I did! GL, I do think gaining knowledge & experience in whatever capacity you can is good.
