If you can put the pole lower than 15 ft you might like that better. I’ve danced on tall poles and I prefer 10-12ft. Anything over that and it gets pretty bouncy, when you use it.

The girls are right, you don't need to loose weight before you buy a pole or start dancing! If you are interested, the lessons here are perfect for beginners. You do not need any dance, gymnastics or fitness background. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif We sell X-pole here, and I suggest the 45mm Chrome or Titanium for beginners.

I think you might be thinking of Tarakarina's videos. She use to pole in a garage and had a rug down. I've never had my pole in a garage. I would think putting a big rug down would be more comfortable than dancing on the concrete, so you could try that. Also check out this thread about making a pole dance floor!

Yeah, I steam my new poles right out of the box. I've done it both ways, in pieces or put together, I steam it several times when the pole is new. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Using a foam roller can work nicely in place of a machine…..my guess its it's cheaper too, and of course you can use it for other things as well!
I demonstrate how in this routine, I think it's near the end around min 19. https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4e2d837d-6f9c-46f6-93df-22110ac37250

Many of the larger competition will have 45mm poles, they may also have one 45 and one 50. The smaller competitions held in studios will of course vary depending on the studio. Many older studios have 50mm poles. The 45mm is becoming the "standard" pole. If you have access to 50's and 45's that's great!!

Unfortunately our chat room is down. I'm so disappointed because I as looking forward to watching everyone. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

hmmm, no prob Amy, I just looked at the link and I would still call that a Twisted ballerina. In my mind you would be grabbing the foot/leg with BOTH hands for it to be an Adv Ballerina AKA Eagle (Beillman). I call holding with only one hand a Ballerina or Twisted Ballerina only because adding that 2nd hand overhead isn't easy!!! Again, this is just my definition for the purpose of the lessons. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Oh, those things happen. Don't worry too much about it!! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

Haha, yes Amy, thanks for the link, I’ve have seen that and of course there are many varations for both ballerinas as well. I’m not saying its not possible….my responce is in reference to the terms, lessons and photos I use for the site. 😉

It’s done from the ballerina, not twisted 🙂
