YAY!

By "poses" do you mean ones that are done up on the pole after climbing, or can they be on the floor, or whatever? Or maybe a beginning pose, to start your dance off with?
-
Bah! I forgot to ask one more thing! If we happen to feel somewhat more ambitious, can we dance for longer than 60 seconds? I don’t know the rules for these competitions…though I realize this one is just for fun https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

I would say a pose is done from on the ground….but thats just me, anyone else have any thoughts on this? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_question.gif if it were up on the pole I would call it a hold.

sounds fun..i’ve never done a challenge b/c i’m fairly new to the site, but when do you submit the challenge videos? on a specific day or any day of the month?

post your video anytime….you can even do old challenges, when ever. Just be sure to label it with the month and challenge so it will show up with all the other challenge vids. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif -
1 thigh hold (held for 3 sec)
I think I understand the rest of the requirements, but I’m not sure about "thigh hold" –> I can only think of teddy, inverted teddy & inverted pike. I’m sure there are others I’m missing, but is that the hold you are talking about?
THANKS!

I agree with Veena, a pose can be any position on the ground. Up the pole it would be considered a hold.
part of the challenge is to fit all the elements in a set amount of time so I think it’s more fun if we stick to the time limits. Of course if you want to post a longer video as well, we would all love to see it!
A thigh hold, according to the USPDF standards, is any position where both thighs are the main thing keeping you on the pole, ie: a simple layout, a cross ankle or knee release, superman, etc.
i can’t wait to see what everyone does! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Wow that sounds great! It is motivating https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
Good idea https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif -
does the floorwork have to be in one 20min block or can we break it up?? Also can gsylass and I do our routine together?? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I don’t mind if you do it together Azz…I would have to ask Fleur about the floor work, I’m planing on doing mine all at once.
-
Floorwork is meant to be 20 seconds continuous. It’s hard to count 20 seconds if you break it up anyhow!
-
true…. good point!! ta!
-
hehe, sounds like fun! i can do everything but a split in the pro section, but maybe i’ll give it a try anyway. this is a really great idea https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
