I agree with you Sissy. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif I wish more of the advanced pole dancers would dance a bit more. I am NOT a dancer and will never claim to be, but I really do try to only stay on the pole in a pole routine. A lot of advanced dancers don’t really do spins either, if they do (I am guilty of this) they only do reveres grabs. This is why I don’t want pole dance in the Olympics, not because its not athletic (it IS!) BUT I would hate for pole dance, to just become pole moves. The wonderfully athletic polers are great and have some crazy stills, but its not the same, for me, when you don’t have the emotion behind the moves. The self expression of pole dance is my FAVORITE part https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
I see your point. I think that if pole dancing were to move to the Olympics they should call it something else because pole dancing is not what they’d be doing, lol. It would be women in boy shorts and sports bras doing regulated moves. It’s probably become more of a pole sport, with each move having difficulty levels and guidelines on what constitutes a "this" instead of a "that". Which could be alright I guess…. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif
Sometimes it just seems like there should be different terms for artistic or expressive pole dance and pole fitness or pole sport.
Did that make sense? LOL
It makes total sense!! Pole dance should have dance in it! I really feel there are 2 main styles of pole. Fitness/sport or Dance/art…..but can or should they all be called pole dance? https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif I don’t know how I feel about it. -
No you can not change the video’s thumbnail. You can change the thumbnail pic by your user name though.

One last thing, I forgot….no you can’t turn off the ratings. I never really thought that they were necessary, because everyone always gives five stars….except… for the occasional accidental low rating or when we have a member who is not familiar with what is acceptable behavior here. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif
I can have webmaster just get read of the ratings if you all would prefer that….remember it only takes one low rating to bring it down below 5 stars and the site is so NOT about competition so, I would have no problem loosing that function. Please keep in mind…I’m not webmaster and I don’t know how long that might take. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_ugeek.gif
Please remember everyone…that if your having issue’s with another member or something that has happened on the site, PLEASE send me an email, spam, rude or disruptive behavior is NOT tolerated here and I can’t speak with the person if I don’t know about it. I can’t possibly read all the comments on everyone profiles and videos, so I need your help, this is not just my site its OUR site so its up to all of us to keep it the amazing supportive place it always has been and will be. The only way you guys can be sure that I see something, is if you contact by email through my studioveena account here.
ABC please don’t let some rude person make you feel bad, I think your wonderful.The site has about 8000 members https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif thats a lot of people, and honestly, I would think we would have more issues like this but we don’t…because they know its not worth it and its not something we tolerate here!!! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif

With the SA pole, how many feet of usable pole is there? I know X stage has 9ft of usable pole, which I love because I’m 5′ 8". https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Thanks for keeping us posted. That would be great to hear some feedback on the demo, Pics would be good too. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif I have heard a tiny bit about the PS free standing pole but not too much. Does the new free standing pole have a mat that you HAVE to use, like the R pole? Does it come in different diameters and finishes? https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
EDIT I just saw the first post at the top! lol questions answered https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I don’t know what Stacey is having your do in the dvd or what ever it is. But there are many theories on stretching. As Azzwoo mentioned… if over stretched, the body tries to protected its self, that is one possibility. I think a lot of people over do it and become sore and tight, now that’s not what you want! Also our bodies will be more flexible some days than others, my guess would be hormones might play apart in that, but I"m not sure? Also we tend to be the least flexible in the morning. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif If the stretches are not performed with proper body alignment that could cause problems too. One other thing, if the stretches are done with out the body being really, really, nice and warm, you wont see the benefits and it could cause the micro trauma to your muscle tissue, that Azzwoo was talking about. Tension is good pain is bad. I would be curious to know what techniques Stacey is using. If what you were doing before was working I would go back to that. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif

I would really recommend an X pole. My first pole was a permanent and the X pole is thicker (not diameter) but as far as the thickness of the metal. My 45 is wonderful and very robust. I was very impressed with the quality of the X…I thought for sure a permanent would be sturdier feeling. But I was wrong, the X pole is solid. And you can order one right there in Europe https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

If Charley doesn’t mind I can make one tomorrow for you guys…..I don’t want to do it if she has one all ready to go, that would be uncool. I think I might approach it a little differently, but I don’t want to bust in and take over. My new filp cam makes it super easy to post. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
