    June 4, 2020 at 3:03 pm in reply to: Week 4 – Save Our Shoulders VIP

    It’s ready to go, but with all that’s going on in the world, I’m postponing any new content or VIP announcements.

    I’m focused on something else I’d like to do for the city of Minneapolis and the less fortunate neighborhoods that have been destroyed. The police force in MN needs to be cleaned up so black and brown people can enjoy the same treatment as white people. It’s been an issue there for way too long…

    I lived in Minneapolis and the surrounding areas with my husband and first 3 kids for 10 yrs. I started pole dancing there, learned to ride motorcycles and discovered my sexy side there. We still have beautiful friends of all races in and near the city. I want to help 💜

    Well…that got longer than I expected..lol VIP will be back but not this week. I’m glad you’re looking forward to it!

    It will all depend on why it feels slippy. If it’s sweaty, greasy hands or body try an antiperspirant grip aid, AVOID waxy or sticky grip aids!!!!

    If the pole is cold and your hands are cool and dry… warm the pole and your body. Try using this warm up https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/525b64a6-b328-401e-85e7-456c0ac37250 If you still slip even after a warm up, try a grip aid mix like this https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/5e418c06-b198-4d3d-a806-7ffeac110005 with mighty grip powder over it.

    If you need to warm or clean residue off the pole try steaming it. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/50ccac91-674c-4915-8e13-3b120ac37250

    The red ones are 8 inches. I find 7 inch is nice for those new to dance heels. Something to know, clear heels are heavier than colored, I personally find them clunky.

    Ouch Phonenix, how that toe heals quick!

    I’m looking forward to a possible stretching session tonight, it’s been a LOOOOONG time since I’ve shut the door, lowered the lights and stretched.

    Sounds like it’s time to focus on flexibility or strengthening for now 💜

    That looks like a great place to set up a pole. They appear to be normal joists 🥰

    Sounds like muscle soreness to me. 😊 Be sure to have rest days 🤗

    Hi! by hurt do you mean muscle soreness, achy feeling? If so that’s totally normal and what happens when we train. If you mean you have pain in your spine or experience sudden sharp pain, that doesn’t go away, that’s when you worry and take steps to care for the injury.

    They’re all Pleasers not sure of the style names. The lace up ankle boot offers a good deal of stability, far more than a longer pull on boot.

    Have you completed the 30 day take off? If so, yes, keep going…the moves in the flow program don’t get progressively harder. We just run through them over and over. You can always swap out anything you can’t do with something you feel more comfortable with. Just make a note of the swap so you don’t forget on the days I have you do that move/combo.

    Get lace up ankle boots! Those also offer the most support. Like the black ones I have…only don’t start with 8 inch ones 🙃

    I have seen people install a pole like that but I can’t say if it’s a good idea…🤷‍♀️ I’ve been in this “sooo close” situation before and it’s frustrating. My husband has cut out part of the ceiling (we rent and will have to patch it soon lol) or I’ve just not put it up.
