However, I try to represent most styles (I am not to good at just tricks). I do know that some videos/styles appear to be recived better by pole dancers here and YT than other styles. People who do not pole dance seem to love anything I do! In fact, my latest video most have not seemed to care for it. I really go through phases when it comes to how I dance, all depending on if I feel angry, sad, frustration…ect. Sometimes it will bother me when I put my heart into a dance and people are like…meh…but you can't please all of the people all of the time. I now dance, perform or post whatever I want for myself and if others don't like it…well….there is really nothing I can do so I try not to worry about it.
I guess what I'm saying is…dance for yourself and you'll never have to worry about what others think! https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

I am the type of person who needs some kind of daily exercise or I am crabby and depressed! Don't think of "rest" days as a day when you do nothing….you can have an active rest day. Work on some flowing movements on the floor and around the pole, stretch, (stretching gives me the same endorphin high as working out) and kind of cardio like walking, swimming or light yoga is fine too. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

Otter….the Veena grip is more difficult than the Cup in my opinion… as in, takes more strength at the beginning phase of the move, and its also much safer at the top of the move. The thumb is not in front of the pole, it wraps around, but knuckles are facing away from the body. It is also a pretty neutral grip, if you have the ability to raise your arm over your head…..no twisting needed https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I have a few grip variations in my shoulder mount lesson. I also teach you from the floor first so you are able to work on the mechanics and strength from a safe point. I don't like any of the grips where the arm is twisted, so I try to avoid them. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

HI! Welcome to the site! Runemist had some great advice for you. And yes, she is right, I do hoop, although not nearly as much as I pole. I have not hooped for months now. The warmer weather has made me feel like heading outside for some hoop though! Anyway welcome again and if you have questions feel free to ask. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Don't forget to wear your SV button to your next pole event. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

If your taking the lessons the Tuck Invert will help prepare you for Aerial Inverts. https://stage.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4cbc4b23-b534-4d1a-9978-3b990ac37250
