Welcome https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif I use to be so painfully shy that I couldn’t go up to a fast food counter to order food!! Pole dance was part of my transformation out of my shell. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif What the others are saying is true I don’t allow rude comments to be posted to the videos on this site. Everyone one here is super supportive anyway so I doubt that would ever be a problem. So if you ever get brave enough please share with us. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Yes no no no jumping!! Not even in the beginning. Focus on LIFTING your hips above your head, don’t kick your leg with force….it might LOOK like we are kicking into an invert because dancers tend to keep at least one leg straight on the way up, it looks pretty…it shouldn’t be used to help you get up. The proper safe and effective strength builder is no kicking and no jumping. The invert should really focus on the abs, biceps and upper back. Think of drawing your legs up not using force. Everyone is always in a rush to invert so they can learn all those cool moves, but if you don’t have the proper forum and strength you are far more likely to injure yourself and not be able to pole at all https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif

I just opened my new x-pole and see that it does’nt screw into the ceiling like my old pole. has anyone had a problem with it slipping?
The X pole doesn’t screw into the ceiling!! That’s what makes it so great…you can put it where ever you want. Just be sure to read the instructions for putting up the pole….one thing they don’t mention, in the US our joist are farther apart then the UK where X pole was created. You will want to place the pole on center of ONE joist not spanning TWO. for more X pole tips please read this thread…find it under the topic dance poles

Well where to begin? Hmmmm I have been to strip clubs many times! I still go, I usually end up having some fun conversations with the girls. The only reason I agreed to go the first time was because I was really interested in the pole work. This was before I had even tried a pole. I was fascinated by it, I don’t know why but… That’s how I learned to move. I have always gone with my husband and it was fun because we felt like we were doing something naughty… but together…hehe.
So here is my thoughts on this. All men, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bigsmurf.gif happily married or not like to look at naked or scantily clad women, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_smurfin.gif that’s just the way their simple pea sized brains work. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif So if you go…. yes he will drool over all the girls in the club BUT that doesn’t me he thinks they are more attractive than you or will love you less. My husband and I became closer after our experiences, because it helped start up some interesting and honest conversations. I also realized he wasn’t feeding me a line when he said he preferred small boobies (I call mine "hootlits" not hooters.) We have been happily married for 13yrs! Honest communication is the key.
Now if you do decide to go…do your research, we went to a full nude club the first time https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif I didn’t realize it double https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif . until I looked at the girl on stage. I was super uncomfortable but to my surprise the girls were really nice. In my experience women guest are treated really well in the clubs. I have gotten a private dance and the girl and I end up talking about clothes and hair silly things, and your man has no clue and thinks its super hot, because all he see’s is two girls! If you tell the dancer your not really comfortable she’ll be nice. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
Just make sure that there’s an understanding between you and your husband….if your uncomfortable and want to leave he doesn’t get upset or make you feel bad. If you say enough, then it’s done!! If he’s not willing to give you that kind of control over the situation then don’t go! Talk about it before during and after…don’t pester him but just remember this is how most men think…"I wanna beer an I wanna see somthin necked" https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif You can learn a lot from the girls in the club, the girls who do the best TEND to be the ones that are the most confident, regardless of their shape or size. Learn to work it girl. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif -

Please don’t rush back into poling…the shoulders can be easily injured in pole dance, without proper form and strength. Your Physical therapist might not have any idea what pole dance is so you may have to show them how you would hold your arms up for different move and explain as best as you can they types of moves you do. Spins are very hard on the shoulders, climbs and most inverts too. I’m not sure how advanced you are? I’m sure you dieing to get back on the pole but take it slow… I would work on transitions, floor work and flexibility. One you get the go ahead from your PT or DR then you can work on this strength training exercise.

X-pole also make a 42mm, if you need something smaller, Veena can confirm if you can get that in the US.The 42mm is not available in the US. X pole US sells Chrome and Titanium Gold, 45mm and 50mm that’s it for us over here. When I spoke with Stacey at the trade show over here it sounded like you guys have the biggest selection for X pole finishes and sizes…lucky https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

As the queen of skin irritations, stop using the windex. In fact never, ever use it on the pole.
We use meths, which is sprayed onto a cloth, then thoroughly wiped off.
The last major issue I had was using a pole that was cleaned with "spray and wipe". My hands were swollen within 8 hours and were painful, burning, itchy and hot. Cold water made them even worse! I woke up scratching my hands until they were bleeding. I ended up taking anti-histamines, but I really had to ride it out. Nearly 4 weeks later, I’m at the tail end. Meths is the only thing that doesn’t react with my skin – and most cleaning products do.Wow thanks for passing on that knowledge https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumleft.gif I don’t know what Meths is? Over in the US if you tell someone your using meth its a whole different story…its an illegal drug LOL https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif -
I do wanna name my poles but… I had a hard enough time naming my children https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif LOL. I love the idea. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif If I can come up with enough names and can’t decide, I’ll have you all vote to help me out.

Oh my, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif that doesn’t sound good. I’ve never had a problem BUT is sure seems like the windex might be whats causing irritation. I would stop using that and try something else for a while. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
