    Well, I watched this 3 times. I’m not too sure what’s going on here. Maybe you’re not ready for the hold? It doesn’t look like your legs are sticking to your pole when you go into the hold, so there’s some sliding. The placement of your legs look great in my opinion….I’m perplexed. I don’t have awesome advice cuz it looks like you got it pretty well. I dunno…looks good. lol

    Well, I can’t even do this trick yet, but the way we’re taught, think of putting the pole between your boobs. It’s the same thing everyone has said, but in a different way. lol.

    That’s cool. I don’t go on Mondays… I USED to go Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but now it’s just Thursdays. Do you plan on dancing in the showcase in a few weeks?

    In my class, we have 2 poles total. We learn a move on the main pole, with our teacher (the wonderful incredible Michelle Mynx) teaching us and spotting us, ect. and then we move to the second pole to work on it a few more times. That way, she can see everything we are doing. I do NOT believe that you can "spot" anyone that you’re more than a few feet away from. "Spotting" implies (in my mind) "if you fall, I got ya!" If you’re not near me, you wont catch me. I personally enjoy the one on one…there’s no.."wait…where’s her hand?…what’d she do with her foot?" Just my opinion….I don;t think it’s unsafe to have multiple poles, it just depends on the level and what you’re doing. I do not think people should try inverted moves without a spotter RIGHT there…but no one needs spotters for spins usually……

    ook. So it isn’t a spin, just an invert. Ok. I wanna work on it too. I invert, but I always hook my leg. I don’t ever hang there in a V position. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif Yay!

    Hey! Another Michelle Mynx fan. I’ve been taking classes with her since June and loving it. Anyone in the Wash U community?
    I know some of the more advanced girls are…but not me. I graduated from SLU this year. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif She really is great. So who are you? What classes do you take? Maybe I know you…

    That’s awesome!! I just posted some pics too. The gemini and scorpio are only a little different. If you’re upside down, with the pole against your right side, and your left leg is hooked…its a gemini. If the pole is against your right side and your right leg is hooked, it’s a scorpio. We’ve started the shoulder mount….those suck. lol. I can’t do them yet.
