Day 20! 🌈 Ballerina Spin (static pole)
http://instagram.com/p/0bSfwzpAQy/AKA Pretzel Spin! Here is the lesson showing both static and spinning pole! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4fc631e5-4354-4c33-8b45-7bf40ac37250 A solid reverse grab is helpful before moving on to this spin. If your body isn’t ready for the static variation, try it on spinning pole, just be aware the technique is a bit different. 💚

Yep, the pole should be right by the shoulder, (hug the pole) as if you were about to caterpillar climb!
-
BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for sharing your work with us!

It’s ok if you don’t have time to re do it 😊

If you do a search you may find many threads with ideas for structuring your workouts.
I think it will depend on the type of aerial yoga class, if it’s not too trick heavy and does focus more on Yoga poses than it shouldn’t be too hard on the forearms. But it is something to be aware of. As for Flexibility and yoga, again it will depend on the type of class, you’ll be able to tell if a class is more focused on strength, flexibility or meditation and go from there. I would say that taking dance class can replace any extra cardio and as long as you dance, and not only work on tricks when you pole, pole is great cardio too.
I also have love for many things, so I rotate through and often choose what method I want for my strength work that week. My go to options are LIft weights, TRX trainer, or Pole. I just love to move!!! A spinkle in Hooping, aerial yoga, Lyra, yoga and dance!!

Day 17! 🌈 Pole Back Bend http://instagram.com/p/0TtyhzJAQp/
Pole Back Bend. For easier variations and full break down check out my lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52f2fc69-7a68-4a09-b54f-36570a9aa0eb This can be a great transition or a beautiful move on its own!

It’s right!! ðŸ‘
-
ah, sorry for the typo’s!!

Try doing a search on Pole Fears here and you’ll see you’re not alone in this feeling, you will also see more suggestions.
Strength will help, and as mentioned, always learn everything you possibly can from the floor or as close to the floor as possible. Always use a crash mat.
Our thoughts create our reality so it’s important to focus on what we WANT to happen, and not what we DON’T. Work on picturing yourself doing Inverts and such with ease and pefectly, do this through out the day and before you practice or work on the move. Never indulge the thoughts of falling with continuing to focus on them, stop and redirect your mind.

For those who don’t have a pole, I’ve got tons of things to help you improve your pole journey that don’t require a pole at all. Including stretching routines to follow 😉

I think for most the twisted ballerina is easier than the other, but not always.

Day 15! twisted Ballerina http://instagram.com/p/0OpcK7JAa3/
Check out my lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4fa29778-6ce0-4814-9df4-0e9c0ac37250 for helpful tips and variations! Here we are twisting the torso allowing the front of the arm pit to come to the opposite side of the pole.
-
Joists/beams are what you have to use anyway, so that’s perfect!!
-
Yeah, I would say tighten it more 🙂
-
Ah, I’m sorry I missed the tag! I get a lot of tags and comments so I miss a lot on IG. If you want me to see something posting here is always best 💜
-
That’s great! Don’t rush the spins, make sure you’re working on strength based moves too and don’t forget to stretch your forearms after every session 🙂
