Fabulous thread!!!
If your day time shoes are falling apart but you find yourself passing up buying "real" shoes because you would rather spend your money on hot red stilettos you might be a pole dancer!
If you judge every house by its flooring and ceiling height, you might be a pole dancer!

Being able to do a split grip ashya can be very helpful…because thats almost the end result of a CM but I was able to CM before I could do a SGA. Its helpful because your body will be familiar with the inverted position of the SGA but when I cartwheel mount my top arm is slightly bent and this can make that same inverted position feel much different depending on how you twist your body. I would work on both! I tell a lot of people to work on the SGA first just because it can help you work on your balance. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

LOL my first time back was not good, it might look smooth but everything was sooo painful even pole sits! I could BARELY do an invert.. LOL. How old is your baby now? It can take a while for your abs to function like they use to…I felt like I was a thousand pounds https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif it did come back fast for me, BUT think its because I took it slow. I started back on the pole at 3 weeks post baby (I think thats with first vid said) but I only danced once a week if that, for the first 5 weeks of getting back on the pole. I worked more on strength training. Now its been 8 months after my last baby and my abs still arn’t as strong as they use to be, do to lack of time https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
One last thing, if you happen to have my online lessons the strength move I call the "switch" is great for your abs, my abs separated during all of my pregnancies ( the most with my 3rd) and this move helped get them back to almost normal. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Benice….KEEP ON EXERCISING!!!! Even if you can’t do ANY inverts you can still get the amazing benefit that exercise/pole dance can give you. When we exercise, our brains release those "feel good" endorphins!! This can help depression. So dance and move that body…I know first hand it can help! Regular daily exercise can help you sleep better, decrease or increase your appetite depending on your body size/weight,(if your overweight it will work as an appetite suppressant, if your too thin it can work to increase appetite) and including stretching with your work out routine will increase flexibility and lead to a well functioning body. Remember you are not alone many, many, MANY, women suffer from some form of depression or anxiety were here for ya https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

You are the Isadora Duncan of the pole world. When you perform, you take it to a whole other level. You are athletically gifted and could dance on Broadway, but what sets you apart is your vision. Your choreography, music, and costuming choices make your audiences line up at the door!

I’m sorry to hear all that. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif If there is anything I can do to help please let me know…and I mean that!! Have you thought about leaving ND? I know there is not a heck of a lot of opportunity there. You are a strong, beautiful, woman who has been though many tough times, this will only lead you to bigger and better things. Ever thought about moving to CA? LOL https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Welcome!! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif If your getting bruising from doing a basic invert your probably using a lot of momentum and force to get up there. That’s not good, you could injury yourself. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif It could also be hand placement, sometimes if your holding on to your pole way up high, that can happen. Your inside hand should be around ear level and outside hand should be just above that. You may want to hold off for a bit until you have more strength in your abs, upper back and biceps, these among other muscle assist you in inverting. Work on your transitions, spins, flexibility and do pole strength work, before working the inverts. Inverts are fun, but there is so much more to pole dance then that, you’ll get it!! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
