How is your flexibility? I am not very good at this move because my back flexibility is not there not to mention leg flexibility. I am not saying that’s your issue but that’s mine with it – it doesn’t look good on me at all.
Aside from that try getting into it from flatline scorpio. I found the closer I could get my torso to my hooked leg the easier it was to extend it.

Yup, I have 2! I have the real me – which does include local polers and polers I do bidness with…but I want the real me to have a space to not get inundated with things – I can get back to people right away about things. It’s just a space for people I actually know in real life with and make real plans with to be able to get in touch with me.
Honestly I spend WAY more time on my pole FB because it’s more fun! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

What an amazing night!
I want to point out to everyone – check out Veena’s costume – She made that!!!!!!!!!
Triple knees is my favorite pic of the night. I don’t think I have ever seen that one before.

I think its good to take lessons with everyone and not just look at big tricks.
I just got certified through ETED and I learned a ton of great moves that were just basic transitions or spins that were part of the Instructor DVD.
In class the other day we were working on the scissor hold (I love *scissoring* https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif ) and I thought hey maybe I can do this as an advanced plank but my legs in the scissor ( https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif ) position.
So what I am saying is anytime there is a special course or workshop check it out. You get something from EVERYONE.
Most workshops let you take notes or pictures. I highly suggest taking anything you can.

I have had a lot of workshops now…so here goes
Wendy Traskos
She was awesome she taught us choreo and it was my first time with choreo and I loved it – she made it simpl and easy to follow. She is a great instructor and spotter! I could do the moves she taught but she taught me how to make them nicer, more dynamic and she taught me to air invert on opposite side. I walked away with a lot but mostly I started to learn how to make up a choreographed routine.Alethea Austing
I don’t care how bendy you are, she has something for everyone. I love her sexy flexy and learned new ways of warming up and learned great stretches for splits and so floor work that I really like. She was very informative but fun. I also did a semi private with her and she is a fantastic teacher. I learned a lot from her.Amber Richard
I took Ambers Polished Pole and I learned a ton there!!!! I learned my new favorite spin which wasn’t super hard (for me) but I had never seen it and I love the way it feels and it’s so fun. I learned about extension and lines and I got great tips on some moves I am STILL working on. From an instructor perspective I walked away with new conditioning exercises that I love. Even though I could do most of the things we covered Amber taught how to make them pop and dynamic. I LOVED her workshopKarol Helms
I just spent all weeked with her and I cannot tell you how many things she taught me! I learned the tornado, thie beautiful get up and invert from the ground, some new floor moves, how to do an entirely no handed drop from cupid – I mean dropping right out of no handed cupid! I got help with some things I am working on splits advice. I learned a ton and had a blast. I LOVED her classes! Well worth the money.So in my experiences they have been awesome. I will copntinue to search out workshops with people.

Can anyone give site for more information on x-stage for my curiousity. I have been considering the xpole xpert; however, after reading some posts about it, not sure now. Also, any comments regarding brass and where should I look into for that? Thanks.
Platinum stages is the place to get brass. I am not sure if hardcore poles still make brass or not. X-pole does offer titanium gold though which is close to brass. As of writing this TG is not available for the stage. -
Star let me know on fb that she will be unable to attend this time around, but she hopes that she will meet us all one day. I’m sad that she can’t make it up here, but I’m still so excited because we already have so many special guests coming!!! I can’t wait to meet you all, everybody’s gotta sign my X-Stage!!!!
? ~*Serzi
signing the stage! thats awesome!

Amy – you killed it! I love your style. If I could dance like anyone it would be you! I am really hoping you get in.
I entered. I didn’t have the costume that I would have liked for Drama but I would rather be judged as a whole than just on tricks, I mean flow isn’t my strongest point but neither is tricks so maybe between the 2 I look ok https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif

I am meeting Veena, Mary Ellyn, Karol, YOU, Polergirl, Nymphdancer…wow so many people. I almost cry when I think about what this has turned into. I can’t thank you guys enough for your support and participation.

why not? it’s not like USPDF rules and regulations… and it’s a great experience just to make a video and think about what you want to submit. honestly it’s a lot harder to do 2 minutes without editing, a single great take, then i thought (realized this when i was doing my instructor video for my studio’s website). didn’t you enter another comp earlier this year charley?
I submitted for Pole-Am which was disasterous becaus the day I found out about it was the day the vid was due. I have been going back and forth about this one. I am having a hard time trying to figure out what they like.
Why so few enteries for trixpert?
-
I’m going back and forth on whether or not to do it.

I’m performing at the Loop/Coach and horses in Oct. too, you should do it with me!

My bf is from Maidstone! We go back often to visit friends and family. I love going to Windsor, then again I don’t live there…
Let me know if you move here or are ever here. I will let you whenever I am Canadaside.
