I've been taking pole classes since January and I absolutely love it! I'm looking for fellow pole-ers to chat with here 
I also run/cycle/hillwalk/climb and ride my two horses!

Me, but you know me, haha... I put out a message in Jan and got no takers so maybe there ain't many of us?0

I guess so! We should be spreading the message of how awesome pole is!!0
-
It really is awesome, the perfect cardio-strength-flexi. Where else can you shed cals, weight train and be creative all in one session. I ❤️ pole.0

I pole dance, stopped for a while now because of an injury which sucks, can't wait to get back after exams are done! We have a big pole community in Glasgow uni (we r the largest club that train on campus)

I want to do it! Nobody around my area (100 mile radius) teaches it. I think it would be awesome exercise!
(Hmmm, there are a couple of strip clubs though...maybe they can teach it?)

Injury goes with the turf, I've had a rotary cuff and am just recovered from a pec injury which kept me off the pole for 4 weeks. Wouldn't change a thing. My passion. I have a world champion teacher so I'm hugely motivated0 -
There are online lessons, but it's not the same as studio lessons.BigLifter10 wrote: »I want to do it! Nobody around my area (100 mile radius) teaches it. I think it would be awesome exercise!

Boo! I guess I'm pretty lucky where I am - there are four studios in my city!

Don't compare yourself to others and have fun.0

Hey I'm glad there are more of us on here!
I started poledancing back in March and i'm so in love. I got so much stronger since then and it heped a lot in the last bit of my weight loss :^) 0 -
I wanted to get into it, but moved to a small town that doesn't have it! Plus my kids get in my way of doing anything athletic0

I want to take pole dancing classes but I'm not sure how to just... start? Theres a place near my house that has great reviews and I can try drop in classes first but I'm still so nervous

I've been wanting to try this! I just moved to a new city. I will have to check around to see where it might be offered. I live near a big city, so hopefully. I do know that my gym doesn't offer it0

I remember being so nervous my first day of class, but it was so much fun. I asked if I could stay and watch a Pole 3/4 class and omg they were amazing. I'm sure I had my mouth open the whole time. That first step is scary, but I'm glad I took it.
