If you sweat I would wait for brass. Powder coating isn’t porise at all making it slick.

The finish should be fine s long as you avoid wearing rings or clothing that has buckles, or things that can scratch it. ðŸ˜

I should add that you should be able to do these spins on static pole before moving on to reverse grab. 🙂

Can you do a front hook spin REALLY well and a forward attitude spin? https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/5f1351ac-0abc-4c0d-8d31-4642ac110005
The reverse grab is an advanced spin and requires a lot of strength. You should be able to do both the above spins before trying chair and definitely before doing Reverse grab. Working on these spins too soon can cause injury. Some dancers may never do this spin and that’s ok, pole is about fun and exercise not doing ever move.

Are you taking about the Reverse grab spin? https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/5f2c5188-0344-477d-8983-2f64ac110005

You can favorite lessons. ðŸ˜

I have slight scoliosis and leg length issues too! Tendinitis needs rest and then conditioning exercises will help a ton. If you had shoulder pain that went away with rest I would do exercises off pole for those as well. You’ll find a bunch of lessons and routines for both shoulders and hands/wrists. The issues can totally get worse if you don’t have a plan on how you will approach your training.

Ugh, that’s not a fun way to feel about your pole journey! I believe that pole shouldn’t mean injuries or wear and tear on your body. It should make you happy, be fun and leave you feeling stronger. If injury is something you deal with often it’s time to take a look at how you are approaching your pole sessions.
Do you follow a well rounded plan?
Do you work on conditioning and strength off pole?
Do you allow for rest days (rest is equally as important as training)?
Do you follow the no more than 10 tries rule?
Do you eat well?
Do you get enough sleep?All of these things can contribute to over use and feeling beat up by pole or any workout for that matter.
This is an old periscope I did about when to stop pole dancing.https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/562961cd-cacc-4c57-9d5a-523c0a9aa0eb
Let me know if I can point you in any specific direction if you need any of the above. There are lot’s of options here.

Hi! Unless you have super sweaty hands you don’t need gloves or grip accessories. However, if you’re talking about grip aids to apply to skin well that will depend on what problem you’re having. Do you have dry hands/skin, or sweaty hands/skin?
Before buying grip aids for skin, first make sure you have fully warmed up your body and the pole, sometimes just taking a bit more time to prepare can help.
If you slip because of sweat an antiperspirant like Dry hands powder, Carpe Lotion or Tite Grip II is what you’ll want for hands and body. If you slip because you have dry skin use a sticky or tacky grip aid like, trick tac towel, or my favorite is a mixture of mighty grip and this homemade spray https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/5e418c06-b198-4d3d-a806-7ffeac110005
To improve grip strength work on my hand and wrist strength routine! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/5e7506d9-4224-4491-8439-4bc4ac110005

I know it has several entries, from an Inverted Crucifix, Ayesha even scorpio using a football grip. I believe the common name is just football grip. A lot of moves are just variations of things so many don’t have official names.

AdministratorAugust 20, 2020 at 2:08 am in reply to: Bruises and what to do to help with aching/help with a quick recovery method for them!The best thing you can do is rest! I know it seems like trying to do something all the time is the best way to learn but it isn’t necessary. When it comes to the body rest is equally as important as “doing”. Trying some hooping or floor work is a good plan! 😉
I don’t recommend trying to climb every day for this reason. I suggest no more than 10 attempts per session, this is to help prevent excessive bruising. REST!!!!! 🛌 Don’t do any more climbs until the pain from the bruise is gone. There are still lots of other pole work you can work on while you wait. Once you do go back to climb practice ice the shin and foot right away after just to be sure it doesn’t aggravate it. If it feels fine then no need for ice.
Some people swear by Arnica cream but I’ve never used it.
That’s super cool about your friend, we are still the most trafficked pole dance website in the world! People just don’t interact like they use to back in the day. lol
