Lavenia, that’s great to hear! xoxox
I try to critique in a way that explains why I’m looking for a change/re-do (if one is needed) that way if someone is planning teaching others they know the “why” behind my request.

You guys are doing awesome! I had 2 back to back that submitted using a routine to demonstrate the required moves and that’s actually great! It allows me to really see how you enter and exit a move.
-
Try swapping it for one of the routines. Like any of the splits or lower body ones. 🥰
-
I just wanted to say I’ve really been enjoying the certification process with you all! It’s nice to see the face on the other side of the keyboard.

I’m glad you’re ok!
Mistakes happen and ones that causes pain can really shake a person up and that’s normal. Here are some things you can do to help avoid a fall and increase your confidence again.
When working on tricks that you’re not 100% with always use a crash mat. If you don’t have a mat couch cushions work well.
Don’t train new tricks from up high, stay as low as you can.
Know your limits and stay within them.
You say you’re afraid to invert? Remember that inverting isn’t necessary is a fun option for those who enjoy it. There are a lot of other fun tricks and ways to enjoy the pole. When you are ready to invert again make sure you have an exit plan and that you are totally confident in your invert before trying other tricks like switching legs. Leg switching is far more advanced than an invert on it’s own. To build up your confidence make sure you feel 100% comfortable with both inside and outside leg holds. Then you can start to work on switching. I have several great tutorial for switches once you’re ready. The key is never loosing leg contact with the pole, so having a solid hip hold is needed too.
If you haven’t yet, try following my lessons as everything is placed in order. Building up your skills really helps prevent accidents.
Last, don’t rush into moves. Enjoy the process of learning as much as trying to learn the next move. There’s no rush. Even if you never invert you can still have fun pole dancing.

Also I’m about to begin filming 5 new flexibility routines!

Bummer. My first stage was like yours. You could check easy to see if someone can make a custom one.
-
Do the new ones work differently?
I have a custom lollipop so I’m not familiar with xpoles.

Check it out you can go see all your certs right here.

Sfragiledreams. There’s no extra cost, at this time. For now it’s included with any lesson purchase.
It’s not a limited time.

For those who have passed. Here’s how you track, show proof of completion and share your progress.
Webmaster was amazing enough to incorporate this feature into the website.
1. Go to your profile (click your user name)
2. At the top of the page you’ll see Certified as a clickable word.
3. Click and you’ll see your current level. Use this link for sharing as well. -
I’m so excited to watch the first videos that have come in! I’ll send out the results late this week!
I’ve enjoyed the waves and hellos from you guys too!

Do you need grip aid, is there a reason why you use it? No every one does. Unless you have hands that sweat so much you slip then grip aid on the hands isn’t needed.
-
Here’s the official announcement thread. Email goes out tomorrow 🙂 Hope you guys like the certificates I created. https://www.studioveena.com/forums/view/Studioveena_Pole_Certification_20220526031454

Ok, You guys are the first to have a look! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view_category/Get_Certified
I’ll make the official announcement this weekend in the newsletter.
-
IT’S DONE!!!!!!!!! I’ll start the uploading process tomorrow. Tonight my oldest and his girlfriend are coming over for dinner.
-
I’m sitting here working on the creative/photos for the 9 certs right now. Everything else is done!!!!! I hope to be to a point where I can upload the videos next week.

I like Aerial Essential a lot that’s where I bought my pole wrap. However, I live in Vegas so there was no shipping. I would guess that xpole would have good Lyra’s too. I think if you bought off Etsy, I’d ask about seams and see if they show photos of this. also I like a heavy lyra so I’d ask about that too.

If you’re stretching to gain flexibility then do this on the same days you workout. If you’re stretching to maintain and chill then yes, you can that on rest days.
-
Hi aruss! Welcome. I’d say the biggest thing will be to make sure you’re getting enough rest. For example, when I use to go to the gym to lift weights, I would pole dance the same day as my gym workouts so I could have full rest days.
As amelia said, there’s a lot here. I also suggest watching videos you want to work on before training with them. Take notes so you have them when you practice. You can save videos to FAVORITES for later too. That would be one way to create a list or plan for yourself.
Another tip is to use the Search box. This can save you time when looking for things. I have tried to do my best to add several common names to each lesson so it will pop up with a search.

I’m getting closer to have this ready to launch!!!
Had a few set backs as life goes, and I’m working on updating and added new stretches and foam rolling lessons, but I’m getting really excited for this. I’m hoping to film the videos needed for this tomorrow. Fingers crossed I can make it happen.

Thanks for sharing! I hope you both enjoy the journey 💜💜💜
