Foot Fetish


Besides Pleaser, Tony Shoes is one of the most recognized brand for your stripper heel needs. They offer 5-inch, 6-inch, 7-inch, light-up and wood/cork platform heels. If you're into boots, they have ankle, knee and thigh-high boots too. The pole dancing studio I used to take classes at, Sedusa Studios, carries these boots in their boutique in Campbell. The regular styles are reasonably priced and I hear they're really comfy. If you're looking to buy them online, they have a list of online retailers on their website you can select from. I'm actually coveting the ones below, but can't find them!

Portable Poles

I might be getting ahead of myself, but I can't stop thinking about dancing on my own pole in the privacy of my room. Looking back on the many reasons why I moved out of my parent's place, I can clearly remember that putting up a portable pole was one of the big ones. The things you do for a little bit of privacy...

Now that I put myself on the track to build pole-dancing skills, I can seriously think of getting my own portable pole. If you're just starting to think of buying poles online, it can be a little bit overwhelming if you don't know what you're looking for. Since you're buying it online, you can't really test the integrity of the product or brand. Even though I haven't had much experience buying portable poles, I can at least say that from the research I've done do not buy cheap $100 poles. It's a waste of your money.

A really great price and product comparison of the reliable brands can be found on this link...http://www.flirtystripperpole.com/pole_comparison.html

If you want to find out about the cheap and low quality poles Flirty Girl Fitness also has dedicated a page to educating potential pole buyers against these brands...http://www.flirtystripperpole.com/pole_choosing.html

You can narrow down the brand you want depending on your color, height, width and price preferences. I recommended the Lil' Mynx Dance Pole to my friend since she loves everything pink. And it looks amazing in her room! I have to agree that the pink pole totally matches her personality.

If I had to pick one, I would go with a 45mm Titanium Gold pole set offered by X-Pole. Even though it definitely is one of the most expensive poles you can get ($329.99!!!), I totally trust the quality of this brand (plus where else can you find a gold pole?!). This pole fits me since it's made for dancers with smaller hands and it can adjust to ceilings from 7'4" to 9 feet tall. I might just talk myself into getting one next month...

Poletential

Right now, nothing gets me more pumped up and excited than the idea of pole dancing. I have put pole dance lessons on the back burner for way too long. Ever since my first taste of pole dancing at Sedusa Studios, I have been dying for more. There's nothing more I want out of life right now but to learn how to twirl and do inversions on a pole. From a friend's recommendations, I decided to purchase a 10-pack's worth of pole drop-in classes from Poletential which includes Flirty Tricks, Sultry Pole, Basic Pole, Tricked-Out Pole and Total Pole.

My first class will be this Saturday and I feel like there won't be enough time to learn everything I've seen on youtube videos! I could just visualize myself twirling away on my own gold pole at home one day...well at least I have something to look forward to this weekend! It will definitely keep my insatiable cravings in check too!
