The only thing I would suggest is maybe doing shoulder mounts from the floor…they are hard but after a while your sm will be effortless!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

unfortunately, this is a common injury among "newbies" bc of the strength and flexibility needed in the forearms. Usual culprit are split grips…best bet is to take some time off to let them heal…which won’t happen if you try to "work through" the pain. I did this and ended up having to take two months off because I had hurt them so bad…I couldn’t even pick up a coke can with out screaming out in pain. Make sure to warm up your hands/wrists/forearms properly before dancing and stretching afterwards. If you feel pain…STOP! Do strengthening exercises for the hands (grips or squeeze ball). I’m sure if you have Veena’s lessons she probably has videos showing some exercises. Good luck! I don’t wish that pain on anybody!

I taught myself,,,mainly off of youtube but I had checked out Vertical Dance website about two years ago. I’ve also been lucky enough to have had some lessons with Karol, Alethea and Jenyne…and a fun Jam with Amber! Unfortunately, there isn’t a "true" pole studio around here….but if there had been I would have done that…it would have saved me tons on injuries. But on the other hand I know most moves inside and out because I had to break them down when I was learning them. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Little C…It helps to look back when doing the flip…lead with your eyes! You should be able to spot the floor then!!

Try putting a piece of plywood (2’x2’x1/4") between your pole dome and the ceiling…this will help spread out the pressure over a larger space. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I’m originally from around there and haven’t been to Stephanie’s studio..but I have heard that they smoke in there…which seems really nasty to me. I’ve been to another studio around…ugh can’t think of the ladies name that runs it (she finished off her basement) and she was very welcoming!
What happened?? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

ok so Im a HUGE fan of chiros and the "adjustments" that they do are a work in progress. While you may get sore after the adjustments that is normal. Your muscles aren’t used to the "new" position so therefore they get sore…over time they will adjust and the soreness will stop. Have you told him about your poling? Chiros tend to be a little more open minded then traditional MD’s! lol Mine knows what I do (even showed him some of my vids) so he knows the beating our bodies take and it allows him to taylor my adjustments accordingly! I would talk with him about it and maybe he will alter what he is doing. Good luck!
Just a side note…Both of my kids have been going to the chiro since they were 4 days old!!
