Have you ever tried resistance stretching? I have the Dara Torres Resistance Stretching DVD, and she has several different stretches for the arms and the legs. Resistance Stretching also builds strength, and you use your own body to create the resistance. Some of the arm/shoulder/upper body stretches don’t put any strain on the wrists. It might be useful to look into that.

If only my thesis was about pole dancing or studioveena, it would have been done a long time ago https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

[EVamp83]

[EVamp83]

Lol, koba! It was on the uspdf website, but it now says ‘voting closed’. I’m not sure if the vids can be found anywhere else…?

[EVamp83]

lol, or just switch the legs for reverse jade https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
I was complicating things again https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

[EVamp83]

I’m with georgiamarie! Yogini variation/Yogini split, or something the like.
Reverse jade uses the opposide side of the torso and opposite armpit, like in chopstix.

Beautiful pic btw! And awesome move!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

[EVamp83]

Fiddlesticks! LOL! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
Guess it was wishful thinking on my part https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

[EVamp83]

Finally an advantage for the taller polers lol! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

[EVamp83]

I’m sure you’ll do an excellent job!! You’re sharing your passion with the world, what could be more wonderful than that?
Kick ass!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_queen.gif

[EVamp83]

Yay!!! Happy pole-a-versary!! That’s a fantastic looking first outside leg hang! Congrats girl!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I think it was either fireman or front hook spin. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_compress.gif

[EVamp83]

lol! That was the best response possible https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I applaud your hubby https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

As far as I know they are completely different.

The rockstar pose from wikipole:

The rockstar spin:

In my experience, when people talk about ‘the rockstar’ they usually mean the spin. (Although technically in the vid it was more a pose, since it was done on spinny https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif ). The whole terminology gets so confusing at times https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

Hi Lady!
Welcome to StudioVeena!!!
That’s a beautiful profile picture!
Good luck on your pole journey, I hope you have a lot of fun with it!

[EVamp83]

I’ve been doing spins on both sides, right from the beginning. For most spins I hardly notice the difference of doing them left or right anymore. The only real exception is the Scottish Straddle, but that’s an odd one anyway. And my side spin could be stronger on the left side. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif
The key is to just keep at it with your weak side. Practice makes perfect (and all those other clichés) are very true in this case. Your strength and coordination WILL improve! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif

[EVamp83]

Do you mean the rockstar spin?
In that case, I wish I did!! I can never manage to get good pics of spins https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

[EVamp83]

Hi svarri! Welcome to Studio Veena!
I’m sure you’ll be back to your old form in no-time!
Good luck!!!!

[EVamp83]

looooool! LOVE IT! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

[EVamp83]

I love hood ornament so pretty!!!!

I know, right!?!! It looks fantastic, and I was so surprised at how easy it is too! Great way to give yourself a moment to gather your strength/catch your breath.

Great vid, btw!

[EVamp83]

Congrats!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
And the website looks fantastic too!

[EVamp83]

I don’t really know about the YT vids. But to help you search: this move is usually called either aerial shoulder mount or air shoulder mount. I hope you find what you’re looking for! Good luck!

[EVamp83]

Nice!! I’m glad they realized their mistake this quickly! Never underestimate the power of the pole dance community!!!

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif Victory is ours! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
