Flips
Hi There,
In the past few months, I’ve seen some amazing flips that begin on the floor and involve one on the floor and one hand on the pole. They tend to be primarily transition tricks. I have No idea how to describe then other than that and no idea what they are called. Does anyone know the names to any of these flips or know any links to any tutorials?
Thanks!

no real names to these tricks but Olga Koda does alot of this type of thing. I love it! you can watch her youtube videos. sometimes I have to watch and pause watch and pause to figure out what she is doing. I usually have to do this 1,000 times or so. dont know of any tutorials for this but I do recommend having a strong shoulder stand and a strong shoulder roll- veena has lessons for both of those and she has her tsunami tutorial that is this style of trick you may like. that would be a good start.

also, natasha wang has a cool tutorial on youtube called a side valdez. it is under tantric fitness videos.. not quite a flip but it is a way to get on the pole, one hand on the floor one on pole. I’m obsessed with these kind of tricks. 🙂

Phoenix, thanks a lot! I just checked out Olga based on your recommendation and found this:http://youtu.be/UH3CeGajEM4 exactly what I’m talking about. I’ll check out the Natasha Wang piece as well and the Veena Tuts! Excellent advice.

Yay! thats a great Olga video because it is a little slower than she usually dances. this stuff looks very do-able if you just break it down into small chunks at a time. 🙂 Veena’s tsunami tutorial is pretty bad ass too. love it. so happy this helped some! 🙂 have a fun time rolling around on the floor! haha!
