Yep, Empy is absolutely right! The most important this is not to put anything on RIGHT before, you will grease up the pole and slip. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif Cold weather polers and dry skin gals will have sooo much trouble with grip if you don’t use any lotion. Remember warm body and warm pole is the best combo https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

Its smooth to the touch, but also has plenty of grip as long as your body is warm. I had a SS pole for my first and hated it, too slippery, and it had weird lines running trough the finish. I didn’t keep it long enough to "break it in" I guess? I have both the Chrome and Titanium gold X. I love my TG, it has more grip than the chrome, there is no warming up time needed for the pole. I get a lot of pole burn on my TG. Chrome may start off slick (when its cold outside) but after it is warm and your warm I feel it grips waaaaay better than Stainless steel. If your looking for a grip more like Brass, get a titanium gold x pole, if you want something not as grippy, but without the need to "break it in" get a Chrome x pole. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Was that helpful at all? https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif

Thanks for the vid……The grips she was demonstrating were some of the harder ones on your body, I don’t use any of them…..also if you have the limited ROM you shouldn’t be using a forearm grip. But the studio was talking about Vertebra damage not arm. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif Pole dance as a whole is really hard on the forearms, just like dancing can be really harsh on ones feet. I think the important part for instructors, is to remind students to work within the range of motion they have, everyone is different!!!! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Yes Brass is the mother of all grip!! Titanium Gold is next, Chrome then Stainless steel. I find that Chrome is the smoooooothest feeling of them all. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Any pole move could cause injury….just like the act of walking down steps could cause a fall! Accidents happen. I have no idea why the studio is worried about teaching but its their choice not to as a studio. I feel far to many studios teach spins WAY to soon, most spins should NOT be considered beginner moves. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif I teach the SM from the ground (yes its is harder, because you can’t use momentum) and that is why I teach from the ground, its safer if you slip, and teaches you the proper way to mount…with out excessive force. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif
Any move and being alive https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif can be "unsafe" if you do not use the proper form or work with in your range of motion. Proper placement of the pole on the Trapezius, Neutral spine (no rounding upper back), Abs engaged (to protect the low back) Proper hand placement (Veena grip is one of the safest and most secure), Engaged shoulders (chest up and shoulders away from ears), no twisting or excessive kicking and I don’t see why it would cause a problem. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif I will have to think about this more, but I’m not sure I can see the danger for your spine in this move, maybe I teach it differently than they do IDK.

Try a healthy smoothy.You encouraged me to go get mine. Thanks everyone for the advice. I went last night to get it done. I have been wanting it for 3 years now and always chickened out. Yesterday was the day for mme to do it and I did it. I’m proud of myself. The only down fall is eating. I cant seem to get full. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif I am so hungry. Any suggestions?

But really think…..What is your passion???? https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif What do you REALLY love? Some of the most successful people in the world didn’t have a collage degree, they became a success because they had a passion and found a way to make it work for them. Just something to think about.
