Handsprings ... finally!!! Out of the blue ...
lilblondie started this discussion ·
Last night I tried a new pole studio and the instructor showed me how to put my hands for a twisted grip handspring. She demonstrated one and told me it might be easier than split grip, so I think that gave me confidence to try. (I've tried handsprings a million times and never gotten up). So I tried it ... and I got it! I did it three or four times there perfectly, then came home and showed my boyfriend. Then I wanted to show him how a split grip handspring was different -- I told him it was harder and I couldn't do it yet. So I tried a split grip handspring ... and nailed it too!! It felt just the same!! I just had to tell someone ... I've been banging away at the aysha for a year from an invert and felt sure I had the strength. It was just body positioning -- i actually wasn't far enough away from the pole! My boyfriend won't listen to how excited I am about it anymore so I'm telling you guys. Eeeeee!!!
