Veena Dance Certification Ideas

PoleAdventures · 2021-10-28T20:36:11+00:00

As I already mentioned in the SV Insta Post, I find the idea for a Veena Dance Certification system quite interesting. I just wanted to throw the idea into the room :) What I mean is not a website system that has to be integrated, but simply a kind of system with levels that you can "pass". I've seen it a few times and think it's a great incentive to get a Veena certificate :) And practice of the tricks on both sides should be encouraged. I kind of picture it like this: - There are different levels, for example between 5 and 10 - There are about 5 to 8 moves/tricks (not too much)in each level - The tricks are not fancy variations but rather well-known moves, such as basic climb, plank, butterfly, gemini, scorpio etc. Of course there can be variations, but not too fancy - You should be able to perform the tricks safely and in a controlled manner on BOTH sides (I mean not absolut perfect, but SAFE) - If you can safely and control all the tricks of a level (plus the entry and exit of the trick), you can record it and post it on SV. Perhaps there could be a way to send the videos directly to veena for people who would rather not post it on the website - Veena checks whether the tricks are performed out cleanly and safely (not absolutely perfect) and gives feedback if necessary - If all tricks of a level are "passed", you get a "Veena Dance Certificate Level XX" (a nice PDF or something, with your signature) These are my thoughts on the Veena Certificate, what do you think? We can motivate ourselves to train on both sides and learn the tricks in small, progressive bites. And Veena could do some kind of individual feedback teaching. Maybe you like the idea Veena, maybe you don't. :)

I would love too Option 1. The digital cert is my favourite because I don't think you want to send papers to Switzerland :) (heavy costs).

Ah and to the time frame: It would be great if there is no time frame, but I would like an order, like you have to pass Beginner 1 and 2 before Beginner 3.

I think option 1 so that we can really make sure we cover the different moves in each skill set
Veena · 4/19/2022
Yes, you'll have to pass in order for sure. And yeah I don't wanna be sending out a bunch of papers for each level:)

I have to say great idea, and digital cert would be easier especially with postage costs and delays.

Option 2 is the best in my opinion.

I'm getting closer to have this ready to launch!!! Had a few set backs as life goes, and I'm working on updating and added new stretches and foam rolling lessons, but I'm getting really excited for this. I'm hoping to film the videos needed for this tomorrow. Fingers crossed I can make it happen.

Looking forward to this!! Happy filming :)

I had to stop poling for some time, as I was moving all my life across the country... finally I feel settled down and ready to go back to my pole, and here I read this certification idea. I love it!!! Option 1, I think, would be very motivating to me... little steps, little by little, achieve big results :)

I'm sitting here working on the creative/photos for the 9 certs right now. Everything else is done!!!!! I hope to be to a point where I can upload the videos next week.
Veena · 5/22/2022
IT'S DONE!!!!!!!!! I'll start the uploading process tomorrow. Tonight my oldest and his girlfriend are coming over for dinner.
xlumintionx · 5/22/2022
Yay! Excited to see and start working on it!! Hope y'all have a wonderful dinner.

I'm so happy this is going ahead. Once I get clearance to pole again I will get started. I'm sure a lot of my early injuries were been because I had no idea what I was doing was too hard for me so a level by level guide will be great. Thank you 💖
