    Default I Feel Like Sucha N00b...

    So I'm trying out a new club this Friday, if all goes well. I havent switched clubs in over 2 years. I always feel so akward and such when I have to get used to a new place... plus, the stage set up is totally new for me! I've danced in clubs with open, square stages, behind the bar, with a pole in an open spot, and now I'm at a club with a sort-of square stage and runway, with a bar top-esque place to sit that surrounds the stage. It isnt too far off the ground either. (This picture from Xmas is the best view of it I have) Well, this new place, if I remember right, is way off the ground, and just a runway with a pole towards the end. I have no idea how I'm going to work this thing, and I'm going to have to learn a new way to gracefully get tips.... FEH! Anyone more accustomed to runway-style stages? How about spinning poles? I know nothing about spinning poles! Have any tips? Egads! I'm all nervous and stupid right now LMAO.

    I guess I've become spoiled by having things to lean on, as far as sides and walls go. But I really know nothing bout spinning poles. I guess you need to rely on grip to stay up while the pole spins ya? Hmmm....

    This isnt the nude one... that's T's in West Palm. This is just another topless place not TOO far from where I am right now... I still dont have the guts to go nude!

    OH I kinda see what you mean there. I worked at a club where there was no runway no round oval stage or even a square one! There was 2 poles and you couldnt even have room to lie down on the stage w/o falling off.
    Basically from the retarded way the made the stage I did a lil extra pole work and alot of sqauting leaning on the pole. It was hard not to dance all over stage..I would have fallen off!
    Ekkkk sounds scary good luck.

    whenever i do a runway stage i treat it just as that, a runway

    i take walks up and down it throwing in the occasional spin as i walk.
    use the ENITRE stage.

    it makes you look extremely confident, much more opportunity for that than a square stage.

    just strut baby!!!

    as far as the spinning poles, the tighter in your body is to it the faster it goes
    so you might want to make sure a leg or arm is out a good distance.
    or you might not like it at first.

    made me want to puke.
    just try to maintain control and don't be too over eager with them at first!!!!
    i lost a shoe that way!!!!

    OH, the spinning pole memories come rushing back. Devilkitty is correct, they make you look twice as cool - but you can probably only do half as much - you probably won't be able to crawl up , hang upside down, and spin around - at least not at first because they really move around.

    It depends on how loose the pole is, but they can spin pretty fast, be careful of that and make sure you know the clearance. I almost took a drunk customer out more than once with an extended leg.

    Ditto on the runway -- walk, spin here, walk, spin there, stroll around on the poll. Squat down grafefully to accept tips, repeat.

    I learned to do this thing on the pole where I can flip upside down and walk/spin around with my feet on the ceiling. I tried it at a club I worked that had a spinning pole (not when customers were there--that would be rude as hell, lol), and it was way easier to get the spinning going--just hang on, you'll get used to it!

    Spinning poles are really fun, but don't take it lightly when people tell you that they spin really fast! I was surprised at how fast they really spin, so be careful! It only took me a couple of stages to get used to it, and I was able to modify my moves to work with the spinning action. You may feel restricted in some ways, but you will also find things that you can't do on a static pole. Have fun!
