Any pointers on this? I learned it a few years ago, and it seems I totally forgot. Do I move the bottom hand up before trying to place the bottom leg? I recall it wasn't that difficult.........just can't remember the technique. Thanks in advance!

Hmmm. I'd don't think I have a lesson for this. I could see if I can do a Bonus lesson for it tomorrow if you still need help.
You're awesome! Thx!!! I found that if I bent my bottom arm and pulled with my bicep? And let my torso/head go from parallel to the pole to parallel to the floor? I was balanced enough momentarily to bring the back leg around and place the heel on the pole. I'm sure there's probably a more technical way to explain it but any pointers are welcome

I didn't pole today, but plan on it for tomorrow!

I still have this on my list!! Woke up to a broken refrigerator 2 days ago and then smashed my foot last night getting out of bed when one of our kids knocked on the door at night. lol LIFE.
Good timing! I just learned this one - I can't yet do a full middle split, and I'm not comfortable performing this (or extended butterfly) without a spot (yet!) but I'm also interested in a Veena lesson and will be watching for it. :) I would love to know how to get out of this one because when I tried I got all twisted up like a pretzel. LOL! I do recall having to move my bottom hand up before I could get my bottom foot on the pole. Veena - I hope you didn't injure your foot! And broken refrigerators are a pain... lost half of my groceries last year when mine broke down! Best of luck! ❤

YAY! Thank you, Veena! I'm going to watch it tonight. Thanks so much for including the exits. :) I didn't know this could be done from butterfly as well!
