New to pole dancing, am a guy but came from years and years of figure skating, work behind the bar at the club but train with the girls. can't get enough of it!!! EVERYONE should give it a go@
poledancing is super fun. im so jealous. my arm strength is just pathetic. how can i increase better arm strength to hold myself up longer. especially my left arm.
Thanks for sharing. I am teaching myself and you were great for showing some hand positions and new tricks that I should be able to do. I have a lot of the strength needed, I just don't know the tricks. Thanks! :)
While your moves are amazingly smooth, elegant (rather than provocative) and strong, I can't help but feel it looks a little sleazy with the flashing lights and shoes like those.. No offense- I'm a pole dancer too!
I clicked on this video as a "related video" when I looked up the flag pole scene from Christmas Story. Emily, I am damned impressed! I used to shoot (photos) of fitness models and female bodybuilders some of which also were dancers. The athleticism and strength you show here is amazing.
this video is great. Do you have the pole on rotate for parts of it? Some of the spins looked like they shouldn't have been possible! You're very good-- and reallllly strong.
I absolutely loved all the combinations of spins and the transitions in and out of the spins and the inverted moves. Excellent! I found the combos very unique and captivating to watch. Great job!
wow love the video, iv been doing pole for about a year and just struggle freestyling, can do the moves on there own, but just cant freestyle unless i write it down, well not for a long time anyway, well done keep it up x
We don't 'need' to wear any shoes, bare feet or trainers are fine, as are ballet shoes or even wellies! Pole shoes are the shoes associated with the pole dance, tap shoes for tap dance, ballet shoes for ballet dance, salsa shoes for salsa etc. Pole shoes are heavy - like wearing sexy ankle weights, they make all tricks and spins harder due to the weight & to their height. To invert with heels means to lift your body 5-7" higher due to the shoe. Shoes are a personal choice :D Hope that helps x
Ever seen a ballroom dancer perform in trainers? A ballerina perform in flip-flops? A street dancer in wedges? Horses for courses and personal choices.... We teach in barefeet, trainers and shoes, it's totally down to the student.
I've been playing on my stripper pole recently and it keeps bruising my arms and legs really badly... is there a way i can hold myself so i won't bruise?
it just takes time, when you first start you get bruises but after your body becomes conditioned you learn to hold youself in a way that wont bruise you. i still get the odd bruise, but keep trying, any other questions just ask! I'm posting pole lessons soon.
Hi northgoddess88, bruises are common with new moves and when learning, but you kinda get used to them and don't bruise as much and its only the new moves that bruise sometimes. Pole kisses hun, wear them with pride, means you are working hard hehehe :D xxx
practise! they better you get at moves the smoother u are and dont knock urself as much (even if it doesnt feel like u are!) parts of ur body begin to get used to it as well with practise x
do u lack iron???? weird question i no but there is a reason im asking, im anemic, so if i dont take my iron tabs i get a bruise by climing spinning everything, low iron pulls bruises out darker and easier, if not, maybe u have soft skin onnce ur body gets used to it it will die down
What does that even mean??? You're basically giving her the thumbs down because she "creeps you out" - completely disregarding the fact that she is an excellent dancer...only a 15 year old would come out with something so random - cant give encouraging/positive feedback? Then hush child...hush! lol
I have done about 6 months of pole training but nothing as good as what u did in the video. What company do u train with? I lost my love for it when I got a different instructor, but miss doing it. If u could get back to me it would be much appreciated. U can tell u work really hard coz every move was perfect - after u've done some pole dancing u know how much effort goes into it but u made it look so simple! x
Want the shoes!!!! Where did they come from? Really good video to watch - you forget about all the spins and stuff when you're concentrating on learning new tricks. Thanx
I am SO impressed! loved watching you! and you have a terrific (strong!) body! I have a pole, but i'm so busy I can't work on it. I do not have the upper body strength.. (menopause). I'm hoping it will come. 8)
I know it is addictive. I have always liked to watch pole dancing before it was now known as a form of fitness. I use to want my b'friend to take me to a strip club just to watch as they look so graceful, never did though.
I have just started lessons 4 weeks ago and just bought my xpole, I could not go a whole week without having a spin.
I just sent this video to a friend. I wanted him to see an example of GOOD pole dancing. Its just new here in town and people do not understand yet what its all about. Hope you R OK with that!
Thats extremelly flattering so very happy with that..thankyou ;-D xxxx
Its a struggle but hopefully we can help people see it for the beauty/grace/strength and skill that it demands one day and not associate it with "THE DARK SIDE" LOL !! IT'S A BEAUTIFUL FORM OF DANCE/SPORT ;-D xxxxxx thank you again x
These ones are from..er...actually i'm not sure..it was a local scaffolding place but the ones I use in all my other classes are x-poles ;-D xxx we just could'nt fit the x-poles in because of the design of the ceilings here!!! so no spinny spin spin just static lol
They are great! Mine is actually a handrail that my husband machined to be both static and spin. I had it pro powder coated to get the right slip/grip. I love it!
Just did...bloody good job then...looks great ;-)... also bless you hun..dancing when so ill..i thought i was crackers lol you should have been resting...big love ;-D
lol true, i wonder if we burned off all the sensation in the nerves or what, lol. kind of odd about that isn't it. ur amazing, beautiful videos my friend!
if i try to do this stuff with tights on am i going to slip and break my neck? lol x
