Helicopter

This move requires a good deal of CONTROL. That means it requires upper back/shoulder and Abdominal strength to control the move. I'll break it down allowing you to see important key points before moving into this move with full momentum.

Strenthens: Trapezius, Latissismus, Rhomboids, Pectorals, Deltoids, Biceps, Hip Flexors, Abdominals
shayshay21489 - I have the hardest time trusting myself to do this move. I am still working on the chopper.

StudioVeena - You HAVE to have a solid chopper!! It takes a ton of strength :)

shayshay21489 - I know I'm just soo intimidated by the chopper. I have no idea why. I have to work on trusting myself with that move. My hips go up and then fall back down. I would like to get it though so that I can do the spinning chopper because it looks cool.

Shardae - Any tips on how to spin more? I can get into this position well but I can only spin once around the pole and then I'm just in a stationary V position lol

StudioVeena - It's all about timing and using the outer leg for momentum. Keep at it! Push hard with the inside foot and swing hard with the outside leg. My first attempts didn't result in multiple spins either :) As long as positioning is correct you'll get faster and faster the more you work on it.

Lyme Lyte - Hi Veena, for a normal inverted V, I have both my hands more at my neck and face level. For this move then, do I have to have my hands higher? Just trying to study and get this move for once. :)

StudioVeena - Holding down by my neck always seem to low for me. I think one of the most helpful things for inverting is to be sure your hands are placed at a level in which you can bring the armpit into the pole before lifting. If my hands are low then I can't do that. It's common for people to invert with the pole near the forearm/elbow area and that will not give you the placement or control you need. The position you want for inverting is the Side Pole Hold http://www.studioveena.com/gallerie... Does that make sense?
