AUG 09 - POLESTARS TWITTER POLE TIPS + STUDENT DISCOUNT
Hello Polestars. Isn't August great? Sunshine, seaside breaks, ice-cream, Pimm's o'clock and holidays abroad. All this playtime means that fitness has been pushed to the back of everyone's mind, especially as it's way too hot to be working out. Well, with the arrival of September its time to get back on that horse and get back to that pre-holiday body. Luckily Polestars have thought about this, and all our tasters and classes have been scheduled for a September start. This month's hot topics are:
 
  • Polestars Student Discount Offer
  • Hula Craze Continues
  • Intermediate Courses
  • Poleoke
  • Top Tips for Pole Newbies from Twitter
  • Polestars Katja on Wedding TV
  • Teacher of the Month

    HULA CRAZE CONTINUES
     
    Its not surprising that the new Hula Hoop tasters sessions have been selling like hot cakes when you find out that Hula Hooping for 10 minutes can burn up to 100 calories! That's the same as running a 10 minute mile, but obviously much more enjoyable and fun! We have scheduled yet another taster session. This will be on Wednesday 14th October 7-9pm.
     
    More excitingly, we will be scheduling a six week Hula Hooping course to start in October, so keep your eyes peeled for that. Student will work towards perfect rock hard abs and fight against those pesky love handles. Students will learn a comprehensive series of different tricks and moves with the hoop. To get yourself on the waiting list, please email us with your name and mobile number. Hula Hoop parties are also available in London.
     
     
    INTERMEDIATE POLE COURSES
     
    If you are ready to go onto the next level, then check out our intermediate pole dancing courses:
  • in London: Monday 14th September @ Old Crown (TCR/Holborn) 7-9pm
  • in Manchester: Monday 28th September @ Bar 38 7-9pm
  • in Reading: Wednesday 30th September @ The Purple Turtle 7-9pm
     
    If you are after any intermediate or advanced courses in your city, then please place your name on the waiting list. We will only schedule these courses once there is enough interest so phone 020 7274 4865 or email us.
     
     
    POLEOKE
     
    Another month, and there is another fabulous Poleoke. For those of you who still haven't experienced Poleoke, then get yourself down to Brighton's Latest Music Bar on Saturday 29th August for a night of pole dancing and laughing. For more information regarding Poleoke, see the website. Those of you who are unable to get yourself down to Brighton, look out for a future Poleoke in London!!
     
     
    TOP TIPS FOR POLE NEWBIES FROM TWITTER
     
    We've asked our Twitter followers for their top tips for those new to pole dancing and we just wanted to share some of the fantastic suggestions we received:
     
  • Buy Arnica Cream and start building your core and arm strength!
  • Always check your hand position, body position and feet and legs. If something is going wrong, it's down to one of them.
  • Don't expect to be able to do it all straight away. Your strength will come soon.
  • Don't give up! Have fun doing it! If you're having fun doing it, people will have fun watching you!
  • Pillows, spotter (if possible) and keep trying - you will get there, it takes time.
  • Don't go OTT with the chalk, you'll end up being too reliant on it and you can't keep topping up during a routine so do as best you can without it.
  • If you are having problems with slipperiness and chalk doesn't work, consider gloves and/or the humidity in the room.
