So what are you guys packing to wear for the parties? I asked on PoleCon's facebook page and they said "as casual or dressy as you want"…..thanks guys, that's a lot of help! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif At the moment, I'm thinking jeans and heels with a nice shirt for Friday night and a cocktail dress for Saturday. Anyone else with a similar plan?

Great! Thanks for the info!
-
Pretty much. I know what components they're looking for. I guess the 10 moves are just whichever 10 I want to do from the level I'm grading for, correct?
-
Thanks for the reply Empyrean. It's nice to know that someone is organized, anyway! So, you get one free online grading with your membership purchase – can I submit that through you or will it have to go through the UK?

Thanks Pippi! I'd feel a lot better about sending them money if someone would write me back. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

Tabletop and Marion Amber for me. I think my biggest problem is that I've never had instruction for either move. The closest thing to it has been reading the MA threads here!
I'm sure there are some others, but these are the ones that always seem to elude me.

**By "correct way" I mean the way the tutorial is for the flip. No disrespect meant to any other SM grips!** 🙂
-
Hookedonpole is spot on.
However, I've known several girls who were more comfortable shoulder mounting with the shoulder side hand being the high one. There are so many different grips for that move that I don't think it really matters. BUT for the flip it definitely makes a difference to do it the correct way!
-
If your right shoulder is on the pole then your legs will go over that same side.
-
I love the Veena grip for the SM flip! I like it for a closed shoulder split and I also use it when the pole is a little more slippery than I'm comfortable using cup grip on. You can do basically any shoulder mount move with it!

I've got a Facebook page for my (soon to open) studio!

Non-pole stuff….I've got two Etsy shops:

Thanks for the video Amy!
-
Awesome! I'm going to be there. 🙂
-
Amazing! I MUST try this!
-
No, they are different grips. The Veena grip is also referred to as Safe or Flip grip – cup grip with hand on the same side as the shoulder, forward grip with the other hand.
Someone described Princess grip earlier as the shoulder side hand extended up the pole and the other hand with a cup grip. -
I love this move but it's not on my radar just yet! I need to work on a few building blocks first. 😉 Anyway, here's the link to the move on Pole Dance Dictionary…it might help to be able to watch her do it repeatedly with no distracting background/music/etc. Good luck!
-
Amy, do tell! How would one make that transition? I'd love to do a Superman – Cradle – Extended Butterfly combo! 🙂
-
Not necessarily dismounts but here are some other things I do following a Superman:
Hip Hold
Scorpio
Dove
Bees Knees
Aerial Shoulder Mount
Hood Ornament
Figurehead

Wow! Those are some crazy ninja moves! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_batman.gif
Is the first one a Rubber Double Elbow? http://www.triagedesign.co.uk/wikipole/images/8/89/Rubberdoubleelbow.jpg
And I don't think I've ever seen the second one…guess I'd refer to it as an elbow grip Broken Pencil.

I sooooo wish I could come do this! Within driving distance and I have to miss it because of work. 🙁
-
I've not bought anything from this company personally but everyone I know who did has been very pleased with them:
-
🙂 So nice to see everyone being so positive about their own bodies!
I love my shoulders, back, arms, and hair!
-
Great! 1:15 – 2:15 is my last workshop scheduled for the day, so I'm good any time after that. I hope it'll work out!
-
Sunday would be best for me as well (though I have little blocks open here and there on Friday and Saturday), though I've got a workshop that doesn't end until 2:15.
