We've heard many stories of girls buying a cheap pole only to have it break or even injure them. As the ladies mentioned, customer service can be such a help and both poles have good service.

AdministratorOctober 15, 2013 at 8:38 pm in reply to: New to pole ~ Need advice to organize workoutsI would still suggest doing the 30 days, I don’t have you pole everyday and even if you don’t follow it there is important info in each lesson. However if you would rather do it on your own then start by watching the Getting Started lesson. This explains how to use the lessons. Each Getting Started has important info and will help you create a workout plan 🙂

Both our SV pole and xpole are great poles. I love our pole because of the finish and how user friendly it is. We rent too and I have put 3 mounts up for my SV pole 🙂 it’s not difficult to fill in the hole made for the pole.

I do my training after my upper body workout at the gym too or after taking a super hot bath then doing a few mobility exercises.
I have a back mobility routine in the lessons that can help you understand the progression for back mobility.

AdministratorOctober 14, 2013 at 10:17 am in reply to: Does your father come to your pole performances?I think it depends on the kind of relationship you have with your dad.
I danced for my dad and mom in my own home because they had never seen what I do in person, but the songs and my outfit we appropriate for the relationship I had with my conservative dad. I would not have been comfortable taking either of my parents to an event like USPDF.
However, I was at a Dita von teese show and her mom, dad, and other family were there watching her burlesque performance and they were soooooo proud! So I think it just comes down to how open your family is.

CloSmo, all poles weather they are removable or permanent need to be placed on a "beam" If the beams are far apart then using a square of wood can be done if you're using the dome on an xpole. If you want to screw your xpole in, then you would want to buy the xpole vaulted ceiling adaptor. That screws into your beam/joist and the pole goes in to the adaptor and you don't need the dome any more.

That's a tough one Monica! To tell or not to tell is always an interesting discussion! I have the luxury of working for myself so I tell everyone! I even told one of the waitresses at our favorite sushi place. It was interesting because she told me, her only reference for pole was what she has seen on TV. There was no mention of strippers at all or pole being sexy at all!

AdministratorOctober 13, 2013 at 4:04 pm in reply to: Gemini/Scorpio/which side do you invert on?Names are such a tricky thing because everyone just uses whatever for names. You can always check out our gallery here for names and AKA lists too. AKA's are listed in lesson descriptions as well.
When going into a outside leg hang AKA Gemini you invert on the opposite side so the outside leg is used to hang. Just as you observed.
You should be working on inverts from BOTH sides always! There is not one correct side to be inverting on. 🙂

Good choice! When I’m not using my SV pole I use my TG 🙂
