    I've been having pole dancing lessons for the past 8 weeks and bought myself a pole for at home about 3 weeks ago. I didn't have to budget for it since I paid for it with my final installement of my compensation. I also paid a lump sum off my holiday, which leaves £565 to pay. Anyway, my plan is to get really good at pole and then open a studio offering lessons as fitness. Theres nothing like it round here, I have to take my lessons in an actual 'gentlemans' club. Which must be intimidating for some people. So I'm going to open a fitness studio offering pole purely as fitness, not as a career option :T

    And how do you know what I'd be up for..? ;)

    Ok let me think

    Cat litter tray needs cleaning
    floors need washing
    Some ironing to do
    papers to mark for Tuesday
    VAT return due
    and when you've finished that I might let you into the bedroom.....


















    that could do with a bit of a vacuum too;)
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    It does depend where you are and the quality of your instructer. Mine are £5 for 90 mins, but my instrctor has no qualifications. I'm quite lucky in that my work mate has extensive dance background and also took pole for a year, he gives me private lessons at home once a week to.
