    Never seen or heard of it. I would want to know who is teaching the classes though and what their background is before I would join. They could be teaching people to do things incorrectly, which can lead to problems.

    ^^^ Just based off what I'm reading there I would say to sign up with Pole Junkies if you are going to sign up online.

    It sounds like she's talented, but hasn't been doing pole for very long.

    I believe Studio Veena is good. However, if you are looking for beginner moves I wouldn't go there. If you are the kind of person that likes to skip to the hard stuff (NOT SAFE BTW), then Studio Veena is right up your alley. I think Pole Junkies is only live and not pre-recorded if you are looking for more individual instruction. I also do live online lessons, but I truly don't think you get what you need compared to working with someone in person.

    So, if online is your only option then live is better! It gives the instructor a chance to correct any posture issues or other types of problems.

    ^^^ You still will probably be better of sticking to the studio and when you practice at home practice what you've been taught.

    Even with the studio though you should check and find out what the instructor's background is. The bad thing about the pole teaching industry is that there isn't really one body that does accreditation. You can look for instructors though who have a certification from places like AFAA or ACE, those people are more likely to understand how the muscles work to prevent injuries. There are also a lot of pole studios that are doing certifications their own private certifications but they aren't all equal. PoleCat Power for example has spent a lot of time working with medical professionals to figure out which methods of moving on the pole are safe. I know Nakita (Pole Champ) is one of their certified instructors, and I believe Alena may be as well.

    Many studios around the country have opened that have no professional qualifications to be teaching. Some of the instructors have never actually danced. Locally I know of at least 3 "instructors" who have only trained under others for less than a year and are teaching classes. These people have no professional experience and less than a year of training. It's sort of a snowball effect.

    Do your research before you start training at any studio or with any instructor and make sure that the person you are learning from will be teaching you the proper methods to be safe.

    I am an avid member of StudioVeena and she is an ACE certified personal trainer. I've purchased her lessons and I have to disagree with whoever said she skips to the hard stuff...she goes through everything from beginner to more challenging things starting with strength training moves to build up strength necessary for a lot of pole moves. She goes through almost all of the basic spins and intermediate moves, and she only has a handful of advanced moves but she will be updating her lessons soon with some harder ones. I'm not sure how long she's been poling but she's a great dancer and has been a trainer for a while. She always stresses how to avoid injury which I think is a sign of a professional...check out some of her youtube videos.

    I would recommend signing up and checking out the forums and the chat room before you commit to the lessons so you can get a feel for the site...but everyone is really nice and helpful over there. If you make it over I have the same username so drop me a line She's not paying me to say any of this or anything I've just gotten a lot of helpful information from her site so I want to share the benefits with other people that are interested.

    ^^^ She needs to post a personal bio on her site if she has good qualifications. There's no point in leaving us wondering. It would be nice to know who she's certified through, how long she's been dancing, and what pole instructors she has studied under.

    You should formally introduce yourself, since you haven't done so yet. :-)

    We're not saying that SHE skips to the hard stuff. As they are pre-recorded videos, it means that the viewer can miss out all the "boring" stuff if they want, and just go straight to the cool looking tricks.
    Just like buying an advanced level DVD because the beginner one looks boring.

    Supplemental education can be good if you're getting it from a good source. I recommend Jamilla DeVille's Art of Dance Series - which has 5 DVD's covering everything from the basics (most important) to some advanced movement. She includes a proper warm up, cool down, tips, techniques, clear instruction and different sections offer spotting demonstrations.

    Nothing compares to one on one training - you can be corrected immediately and you won't develop any nasty habits.

    Tricks do not make the dancer - There are many dancers I know who can barely do a spin but I could watch them all day - they move so beautifully - it takes my breath away.

    From a learning standpoint you should always learn the easy stuff first and build on what you know, let your body adapt and begin to memorize the body movements and muscle engagement.

    My personal pet peeve is people who can throw tricks but can't emote and dance. Tricks are fine but they must be polished and fluid. Just my opinion.

    ^^^ I agree! I hate seeing dancers do tricks that look sloppy. I've been known to make comments about dancers not needing anything below their ankles if they aren't going to do something with them! I hate watching girls who don't point their feet and do all of their tricks with flexed feet!

    i've started taking pole lessons this week, and i havent really tried to perfect the movements yet or do tricks. My main objective right now is getting the strength. (which i barely have).

    I can't even keep myself up on the pole yet

    ^ great place to start. There are many exercises you can do on a pole before you ever get your feet off the ground! I have a whole video tutorial available on my website! I am so glad you are taking it slow!!! Yay for you!
