I'm glad the stretches are working for you Steffie! Talliacachild, the middle splits routine would be helpful because it stretches so many muscle group. You don't have to be close to the middle splits to do this routine. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
Here it is for you. https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4e2d837d-6f9c-46f6-93df-22110ac37250
Keep in mind too that you don't have to have super flexibility to have a nice looking aerial V! Much of it can be more of an "illusion" done with the right hip and leg placement. I cover this in the Straight Edge V lessons. https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4d10f457-834c-45b0-8448-3b550ac37250

I agree with SashaMae. Check to make sure your cleaning the pole well and warming up the pole and your body too. Unless you dance in a warm space most poles will not have very good grip until you warm them and you up.

I can't speak for silks, but as for pole dance….Our website is the only site that offers lessons that progressively build on one another. The focus is also on build up the necessary strength first, this is beyond important! Sadly, many studios do not even offer this progression to their students!! Our lessons are NOT randomly placed, leaving the viewer wondering what to look at next. Even in studio it's up to the student to listen to instruction and actually follow. Studioveena online lessons rock. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

D, Luxx, all the moves you listed are great moves to know. There are people that pole for over a year without being ready to invert. Your not alone there! Are you taking the lessons here, and for how long? It's hard when you feel like your alone but I'd be happy to help you out if you like. Send me an email and we can take a closer look at what maybe hindering your progress. Hopefully you can also find a good quality studio soon too! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Don't feel discouraged, Glitterqueen! As others have mentioned, don't rush! Even if there are others in your class that can invert on their first try, doesn't mean they should be.
As mentioned in Keex's blog, you need to build a foundation. This is what we work on in my lessons here as well. One thing builds on another.
In order to see faster progress, working on your pole work, and conditioning outside of your class time would be very helpful. Taking a class once a week isn't really enough for most of us to see an improvement, unless we are strength training or conditioning 3 times a week too.
Also, not every pole move is right for every body, (yes I meant body) https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif we all have strengths and weaknesses. A pole dancer doesn't have to invert, but it is something you can strive for if you like. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Pinkkupcukez, if you're having a lot of joint pain you may want to make sure you take your rest days. As Saphyre mentioned. Rest is equally important, you NEED rest for the body to repair it's self. If I doesn't have time to recover it will "break down" and force you to rest.
Don't worry about trying to catch up to anyone, there will always be someone ahead or better, out there. As long as you're seeing progress with your own journy that's all that matters. It's hard not to do though https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif
If you do conditioning exercises for your body you may not even need all of the braces once your body has become balanced and strong. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

We send out the tracking info as soon as we receive it from xpole. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

As katana suggested, I would just talk with the instructors there, they may have some insight for you. If you have been away form pole for a while starting at the beginning is a good idea, to build up strength. If you have a home pole there are always the lessons here as well. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I'm in the Summerlin area. Shine is not on the strip either, but it's closer. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Hi ADR1ENNE,https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
You may find some more photos if you do a google search. We also have a pole move gallery with links to the lesson for each particular move.
I have a few free lessons on Youtube, but with YT nothing is in order so it's hard to know what to work on, if your looking for something with structure, stay with the lessons here.
We have amazingly helpful members and as you've seen with the trial the lessons are all placed in order for you and I'm available to answer lesson questions you may have. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Yes, almost every static spin lessons also has a spin mode lesson included as well. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
Here is a free "getting started" spin mode video that may help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtinAzp17s0&list=UUup79MtZnWP_SCAHeVlmzdQ&index=0&feature=plcp

Yay, enjoy the lessons, if you have questions feel free to ask. Remember to watch all of the Getting Started lesson for each section, before beginning, these will help you plan your workouts. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

15,16,17 of August? You're more than welcome to come use my studio space, I have 2 xpoles 10 feet tall if you're interested. Also Shine does have open pole, they only charge 15 dollars I think for open pole practice. They have 50mm and 45mm spinning only poles. You'd need to give them a call for times 1 (702) 420-2358.
There is also Fawnia's studio, but it tends to be a bit more difficult to get into for open pole. If your looking for height this studio might not be the best, but Fawnia is super nice so you may want to take a class or just stop in to meet her. Not sure if this is the right number but you can try it. 702-878-POLE (7653)
