#beautifulbeginnerbasics challenge idea

Rachel Osborne started this discussion ·

I really enjoyed the Alphapole Instagram challenge and was thinking of a new challenge to do in the new year. Seeing Maravillapole's pretty fireman spin and her comment that you never see anyone doing the basic fireman anymore made me think about doing a back to basics beautiful beginner moves challenge thing. Taking the first pole moves you ever learned and doing them again, with the best form you can, both sides. Making them into combos, making them lovely, adding in advanced or intermediate stuff too if you like but celebrating the #beautifulbeginnerbasics. In the rush to master every trendy trick I feel that the simple grace and flow of my basics can be lost and I would like to reclaim that. Plus, it's something everyone can do! And it would be so interesting to see how people styled it differently. Here are a few moves off the top of my head Walk around the pole Quick turns around the pole Big step Back hook spin Fireman Chair spin Attitude/stag spin Sexy squat Back bend High kicks Fan kicks Head rolls Shoulder slide Pike spin Carousel Body wave Hip circles I know there are loads more in Veena's lessons, plus combos for inspo... What do you think?
