    I think they are all variations on the same thing?

    you have your arms one high and one low and your body is in between the arms BUT your legs are different. i think the top leg can either be free so you can fold out into a back hook (so that would be cradle or thigh rest/ apprentice or it can be inbetween your top arm and your body (what i've seen called side v here) and from this move you go into a superman.

    eg. gemini–> SIDE V–> superman –> dove –> dove drop!

    eg. cradle–> extend legs to thigh rest/ cradle v –> hook top ankle and push up into  butterfly –>extended butterfly —> iron x 😛

    I hadn't heard anyone refer to the static hold as a cradle before. I only thought of it as a spin!! LOL That's where my confusion came in.  

    So I have added the Cradle and Cradle V to the AKA for the Thigh Res and it's V variation, t is that correct?

    Thigh rest (tuck) https://www.studioveena.com/galleries/view/4f879cc8-cf20-458c-8b8f-40d70ac37250

    Thigh rest (V) https://www.studioveena.com/galleries/view/4f879cec-12a4-4ed5-98a2-40d70ac37250

    It's not that confusing, Cradle, jamilla, thigh rest, anchor are all the same move….and all can have leg variations. Moving the legs into a V variation doesn't change anything but the legs.

    Side V is different.  https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

    I know a lot of people around me that call it a cradle, which makes sense to me because if you do the same move on a spin pole, but you are staying still, it's still called a cradle, just like there's a no-hands cradle on spin pole which is the static hold and NOT a spin. oy, it's so much easier to just show pictures instead 🙂
