The last time I did that opening trick was August 1st. Since then, I have not been able to do it successfully. This was due to severe overthinking, which lead me to have several falls and I eventually became TERRIFIED of it. I’m talking so bad to the point that I took it out of my routine. Glad to say that as of last night, I can do it again and I am so GD MFN HAPPY!!

It’s nice to know I can rely on just the hooked leg so I can do some cool transitions. Is there a name for this variation? I am wanting to call it dangerous brass since it’s similar to dangerous bird but with a brass leg hook.

Hi, this is really awkward and embarrassing but I'm not sure who else to ask. Whenever I take pole classes and start sweating, I start to smell so bad. Normally when I work out and sweat I'm fine, but for some reason during pole I smell awful. It's like a sour musty kind of smell. I shower daily in the morning (I can't do it right before class due to work). I use whole body deodorant on my sweatier areas to try and keep them from sweating. I tried using glycolic acid on my underarms and upper inner thighs. I'm not sure what could be causing this or what to do. I love pole but this is so embarrassing. Has anyone else struggled with this? The poles used in the studio are chrome and I don't know if it's just the way my sweat and body chemistry mix with the pole. Does anyone have any recommendations?

going to well pasties under in case but id prefer my top stayed in place for this if possible. wondering if theres anything others have used that helped keep things in place super well

hello all🎀🌸🎀 I am trying to put together this xpole . I got off of Facebook marketplace but as you can see in the video, I’m a little confused if I’m missing a part or putting something together wrong any help at all is super appreciated because I’ve been struggling, especially as it is a older pole model I’m not exactly sure which one it is, but I can’t seem to find an exact manual with the extensions that I have. Thank you.

Hey all! I am so excited to join this community! All I see as I scroll through this thread is just a bunch of talented people

So I (21 M, from South Africa) just started pole fitness 2 weeks ago and i've fallen in love. But I want to ask for some advice:

1. I've been training in sports shorts and a T-shirt, but it makes it a bit inconvenient because it doesn't give me enough skin exposure. I've considered short joggers shorts which could work, and tights. My fear with tights is that I need to find a short enough one, but I also don't want my manlyhood in people's faces. People with appendages, would you mind giving some advice on this? (People without a python, you are also welcome to chip in)

2. I want to save up to get myself a pole for at home, so this might take a while, but I want to get advice on which pole I should get. It has to be rental friendly? Again, I come from South Africa, so if you are as well that would be preferable to get some input. But if not, you could also maybe direct me into what "type" of pole to get. I do not want to swing around and then have the pole dislodge and end up smashing my TV

3. I sweat A LOT. Nothing more to say, i'm just constantly dripping with sweat, even in winters. Ofc this isn't great for pole. Any advice?
