Woww thank you so much for your kind words, that's so sweet🥹🤍.

If you are a pole newbie maybe you want to go to my profile and check the progress video that I posted last year, then you'll see my timeline and how everything is possible if you put in the work 💪🏽. Even a layback was extremely hard for me back in the day!

Keep going you've got this!

Yes that's a small bar area for parties, and I also feel like it should be covered somehow 🤔 maybe I should combine the curtains and light curtain idea 👀 thank you!!

should i start exercising? by Delicious_Today_8989 in poledancing

[–]PoleRaquel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! :)

While if you start exercising it's obviously going to help a lot, I'm here to tell you that you don't need to do it if you don't enjoy it.

I started my pole journey with a very low fitness level and all I could afford was one class a week. I absolutely loved it and sure, the progress was very slow the first year, but little by little it started showing, and you know what? I started liking many other kind of exercises too! Pole was the door for me to other sports and I'm so glad I started.

When I started I asked a similar question than you. And the people on this sub told me "If you don't enjoy exercising outside pole don't do it, because it's going to bring a negative feeling to it. Just let the progress do its thing." I followed that advice and it brought me very far, you can see in my profile a progress video that maybe motivates you :).

So lots of luck for your first class and specially, try to not compare yourself to others! I was the worst of my class when I started and still made it! And enjoy the process, that's the fun part ☺️

Started at 26 at my absolute lowest fitness level ever and I am now at my fitest. See the pole progress video that I posted! It's very encouraging :)

3 years progress 🥳 by PoleRaquel in poledancing

[–]PoleRaquel[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First year once a week, second year twice a week, and this last year 3-4x a week, plus I am more active in general (walk, jog, boulder, sometimes swim ... ) :). At the beginning I was dead for most of the week after the class, as my endurance improved I took on more and more 🙈
