    "As far as what to teach. Hmmm I would say start with spins or holds, moves that take a lot of strength like climbing the pole. Nothing that would make them feel to pretty." —But one of my boys likes to feel pretty! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I let him get it out of his system at home where he won’t be ridiculed, except by his brothers.

    Thanks for your thoughts! I totally agree that nothing about poling is sleazy, but boys don’t want to think about their mom and sexuality at the same time. They cringe when I kiss my husband in front of them! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif Making them feel "cutting edge" is a great idea! I think I’ll approach it the same way as our conversations about our political and spiritual beliefs (which tend to be opposite of the majority in our community). We’re already in the minority as liberal, tree hugging, Buddhist atheists- so they’ve learned that others can be close minded about our "otherness". Thanks again for your ideas!

    More lessons, please! I’ve mastered the spins, but I don’t have the strength for the inverts yet! How about some more transitions? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif

    Have you considered platinum stages? They have a pole that is mounted on a 4×4 stage, and is about 7 ft tall. It’s free standing, very stable as long as you weigh down the stage with sandbags as recomended. They come in many colors, materials, etc. I love mine, it’s the centerpiece of my bedroom. The pole is removable, so you could use the stage as a coffee table if you want.(Veena, sorry to recommend something you don’t sell).
