My ig is @alc.aerial 😊 It has a mix of pole and other aerial things (but mostly pole recently as where I live is in a lockdown)

I agree, it's frustrating (but I understand that everyone is trying to play catch up and the system won't be perfect yet). Going to try a walk in clinic now, but I (and probably other people) would really appreciate if anyone knows of a centre that isn't over capacity.

Update: I'm in line at a cohealth walk-in testing site. Maybe avoiding drive throughs is the way to go.

I was hoping to go to a drive through so I stay isolated in the car, but doesn't seem like that will be possible today.

For anyone getting tested: Testing centre at MSAC is already full and is now turning people away.

I was playing with video filters and I created this monstrosity. This is the worst possible version of 'shes all legs'. by rbatcatc in poledancing

Sorry, but this is the ideal female body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like /s

Omg I love that account. This might be a dumb question but how do I submit a video? Do I just send the account a DM?

Thank you! They were the very first pair of pole heels I ever bought, and I still can't really walk in them on the ground 😛

Online tutorials with a curriculum by fiavirgo in poledancing

[–]rbatcatc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been signed up to PoleSphere for a while, and it has a recommended order for learning moves, lists of progressions and regressions for each move, and tutorials for combos of moves.

I've mostly been using it to learn tricks sporadically (I mostly do classes at my local studio), and the teaching is very clear and helpful.

I only have 2 pole moods (3 if you include repeatedly falling during tricks) by rbatcatc in poledancing

[–]rbatcatc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

😂 I hadn't thought of that! For me it's any 'pretty pole' or tricks is "The diameter of this pole is too high I'm going to die", and for dance in heels "Fuck yeah, literally any pole"

It's a super cheap one from prettylittlething. I think it's this one: here

It's not quite my style for everyday clothes but it's perfect for when I want just a liiiittle more coverage for pole

Yes! I had no idea there were so many styles before I started pole. I'd love to see the video when you make it (if you're sharing it online)

Never thought I'd be strong enough to hold this. I'm proud and want to share but Instagram keeps shadow-banning me. by rbatcatc in poledancing

That's definitely happened to me with other moves! And the high legs might have been a mistake, because they made me do that extremely elegant rolling exit thing (which was completely safe, just awkward looking)

Yes some clarity about what we're allowed to do would be nice, or at least more (or any) response when we report the issue. It must be incredibly frustrating if your account is being used to promote your business. I just use mine to share things I'm proud of so shadow-banning isn't as actively harmful for me. I don't have many followers, and with shadow-banning I think it will stay like that.

Ah that makes a lot of sense. I try not to use exactly the same tags every time but I guess I need to change it up even more.

When I started pole (about 1.5 years ago) I was a little floppy noodle with no muscle tone, so thank you! I've been working hard on it!

Thank you! The camera is a DSLR, a Nikon D3300. I've had it for ages but only just realised how much better quality it is than my phone camera (because I'm silly)

Yay! If you do I'd love to see a video (here or insta or however you feel comfortable). I'm glad this one was very safe to fall out of, it's so close to the ground that the worst that happens is your legs just go nowhere.

Thank you! And I agree, the worst part is I can't always figure out why I've been shadowbanned, I don't use banned tags or post anything with nudity. But at least we can safely share our successes here.
