Be sure that they are actually using a spinning pole, sometimes people have a hard time figuring out if the dancer is on static or spin. I don't know of anyone who uses the same technique for spinning holds as for static spins.

Yikes, Thanks for posting Glitter.

You can do it from either. I find I'll get two different looks depending on if I use and inside or outside leg hang.
The first pic is from inside the second is from an outside….

Yes Madison, it's unfortunate that others have had issues with PS service and products in the past. I don't see too many who claim to have had issues lately, so I would think that's a good thing! I don't see any negative comments on this topic though anyway. The regular members here have always been willing to share their experience in order to help a dancer figure out what pole will work best for them. They are great!

Jenny, first don't be too discouraged, an inverted crucifix isn't easy.
Be sure your using the right Points of Contacts and starting from the floor (a reverse handstand). POC's are: The back of the Calf and heel, Between the inside of the Knees, Between the Thighs. Use the muscle of the legs to hold you not only the skin. Sometimes is only a matter of practice to make moves look effortless.https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif If your interested here is the Lesson for this move. https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4cb7259a-e9e4-4f0e-91ad-54f30ac37250

Hi everyone had some great suggestions! Its always a good idea to try other finishes if you can. My favorite finish in the Titanium gold. I do like brass but not the smell it leaves on you. If you want super grip you can try a powder coated pole too. We sell x pole here if your interested. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gifhttps://stage.studioveena.com/shopping

AdministratorNovember 13, 2011 at 6:00 pm in reply to: Pure Splits: stretching for flexibility when you’re sore from stretching for flexibilityI never work on flexibility training daily, that is too much in my opinion. Our bodies need time to recover. For those taking the lessons here is the Getting Started Lesson explaining how to use the stretching section. There is also a lot of good info in the description of this video. It also covers the difference between stretching and flexiblity training. https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4dd66731-eab0-4b4a-aa13-41ad0ac37250
Foam rolling can be your best friend when you are sore, I foam roll each muscle group before I train that particular area for flexibility.

Hi there! I use to be that sickly girl who couldn’t climb on monkey bars!! It gets better!!! It’s also very normal to go through ups and downs with your pole journey. Everyone progresses at their own rate, be sure to start with strength training first. This will give you a better foundation for working on spins and pole moves. Xoxo

Everyone had great advice! Don't feel discouraged. If your looking for things you can do at home to improve strength I do have pole strength lessons and a Pole Strength Routine. Its a great workout and helps you build the necessary strength needed for pole. Give yourself time you'll get there! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif
