Been training Gargoyle lately after a student of mine requested it. Glad it’s feeling better because OMG THAT TRANSITION FROM GENIE TO GRABBING YOUR TOP LEG lol!
Do you like Gargoyle or are you like helll naw lol
P.S. if you’re in NYC/LI & training gargoyle (or any other crazy trick), come show awf in r/poledancersnycli
Basically the title. I hadn’t seen either on my feed in a while so decided to look them up but I can’t seem to find either of them on IG. Not even gemmaragepole (second account after she lost her original one). Anyone who knows what happened?
Helloo I had my first lesson today and I was absolutely amazed and wanna start to visit pole dance lessons on a regular basis :)
Are there any tips or tricks you have for a total beginner ? Or just things I should know before I get into it ?
It could be the simplest things I’m grateful for everything 😊
Thx in advance x
Sorry for formatting, I'm on mobile. I'm having issues trying to find sandals that fit me properly - I normally wear a US 8.5 (39 in birkenstocks) and fit my size 9 boots (1040's) fine. I was told to size down for sandals, so these are size 8 808's. I think they'd fit okay if the top pieces didn't feel so loose and let my foot slip forward. You can see my toe getting scuffed from slipping out in the second picture. I know pointing hard helps, but I don't feel like that's enough to not smack my toes. I want a pair with the clear straps, but am worried those straps will loosen even more and I'll get back to where I'm at now.
I know this might seem crazy... but I used to be absolutely fine with the pain on my thighs with moves like scorpio, inverted ballerina etc anything with that area of contact. But I took a hiatus and I've been back doing pole for like 8 months and I am still struggling to stop the pain, not just that but it feels so much worse than when I was very first doing them. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the friction on the cellulite on my thighs?
I'm just getting more and more frustrated as I'm trying to move up to more higher intermediate moves and this is stopping me
So my very small local studio is hosting a student showcase and it was there last year too where I had performed (purely tricks) and was very nervous that I didn’t even look at the audience.
But this time my routine is more confident and more than that, there’s freestyle audience interaction at the end which is more exciting to me.
In general, I’m a super shy person and I avoid social situations at all costs but something is feeling very right with this. I got no moves and I absolutely suck at it but I don’t care. I’m just happy to be doing a body wave in-front of people. It’s like becoming a new version of yourself and I’m absolutely loving this.
Yayyyy!
I thought of this idea a while ago but never recorded me doing it before so here it is
Ima do another one in the Harley Quinn fit with better video quality in the future at some point (it fits the Joker too though because he owns lots of guns)
I wanted the bat to resemble a shotgun
Lmk what you think 💚💜
Hi !! I’d like some advice please .. I just bought my first pair of boots (I’ve been wearing sandals for over a year already) and although they fit well, I’ve noticed they seem a bit … bulbous ? Under the zip. There seems to be a big bulge, on both boots (where I poke), and it’s not even filled by my foot it’s just the bulge. Even if the shoe is off or i tighten or loosen the laces, it’s still there. I am not a big fan of this bulge, it seems quite big and I haven’t really noticed the same thing on other people’s boots ..
My questions are - is this normal ? And if so does it go away ??
Thank you 💖
Is there a way that won’t damage my ceiling/and also be safe in terms of staying up or should I just get a stand alone pole
Hi everyone. I'm a few months into my pole journey. Been having a great time. Just have a few questions I would love some opinions on:
Thanks everyone!
just looking for opinions when I should be using chalk? when spinning (not the pole) should I wash it off. When is the right/wrong time? thanks
Hi all, I use a pole grip made by my studio, but I’m going crazy with dyshidrotic eczema allergy on my hands!
I react to scented deodorants, so I’m thinking it’s the scent additives causing the allergy?
Can anyone recommend a scentless or allergy-friendly pole grip? Ideally still strong - I live in a hot climate 🌞
I will be moving towns this year which means I’m unfortunately leaving my local pole studio. I live in a camper, so I can’t install an indoor pole. I’m deciding between getting an outdoor aerial rig for a flying pole (and Lyra) or getting an X-stage. For those that have experience on either, what are your thoughts and takeaways? What kind of things should I consider before investing?
I want to get a pole. I have been looking at the Xpole sport but the price is currently too much for me. I don’t know how to find used ones. Please advise me. Thanks
