You can never go wrong by listening to your body, for now you could try foam rolling or using a tennis ball on the area that seems tight. Be sure you’re fully warmed up when you do stretch. If the sensation doesn’t go away talk with a DR. 🙂

Yes, unless there’s a big gap is not a problem. 🙂

First I do not suggest using the twisted grip, over time this can be harmful to the shoulder, elbow or wrist, for some people it can be fine, but as an instructor I say use this grip as a last resort. If you have the ability to hyper extend at the elbow, moves with a twisted grip or split grip should be done with care, being sure the NOT lock out the joint, because again over time this is too strenuous and may cause injury. To avoid overuse injury limit your attempts to 10 times or less and no more then 3 times a week. You may feel you have to try this move everyday or for a whole session, but in the end you could end up with tendonitis or other common poler issues.
I can see in your pic that the legs are coming directly down in line with the torso, this makes holding very difficult. Instead you want to think of keeping the lower leg pointing forward, towards one wall (both legs still in V) and upper leg pointing far back, towards the opposite wall this will twist the hips and make holding the pose much easier, the wider you can split the easier it will be to hold as well.

Nope, it’s not wrong, it’s tipping either way that helps lock you into place. 😊

She has amazing skill to be able to spin at that speed, I see many strippers that do not point their feet. I would hate to think she would see this thread and think we are nitpicking. We all have our strengths, mine is not spinning that fast!! Lol
-
Yes, as PFM said I have all of these moves in the lessons, the only one I don’t is the no hands cradle. Could always be added tho! All you need is a wicked fast spinning pole and control of your moves. 🙂 Fun video to watch tho!
-
Maybe try using this grip aid mix?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgvvc2uvcFw

From what I understand they use to suggest using WD40 but now recommend liquid graphite instead. 😊 if you want to know for sure you can always contact them.
-
Lol Ooooh maybe!!
-
Don’t be too hard on yourself! Pole is very physically demanding, and it does take time to build up the strength that is needed to perform many moves. Please feel free to take a look at the lessons here, I have everything placed in order for you helping you build strength!! You can get 3 days of access with this code GET3FREE

How did I miss this thread! Wow I love her style, very similar to a few things I was working on recently…hmm feeling inspired!

This routine will help you too! 🙂 https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52e9d171-5724-43b2-8784-47960a9aa0eb

There are some exercises in the lessons that will help, it does take a lot of practice and time on her part though, but it can be improved!
How to point the toes https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/50c8ace5-5db0-439e-828c-6a350ac37250
Foot exercise 1 For the first half be sure that she doesn’t allow the bottoms of the feet to roll in to face each other, but rather focus on keeping the bottoms of the feet facing the floor throughout the exercise. The second half of the exercise with the band will be very helpful. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4e316bf4-9398-4008-9184-6d820ac37250
Also working on lower body while focusing on the feet can help create the muscle memory for nice looking feet. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52e9d171-5724-43b2-8784-47960a9aa0eb
I bet others who are trained in ballet will have suggestions too!

Soko I’m hoping you see that we just want you to enjoy and love your body the way it is. You created another human, that’s pretty amazing!!!!! xoxoxo
I agree AnnVann!! I get frustrated with the amount of money companies make off of their lotions and magic potions for “cellulite” cures! I hope that someday as women we can realize its normal and there’s nothing wrong with it, it doesn’t need fixing, but can fluctuate depending on diet and exercise. It’s very similar to stretch mark issues woman have, they happen, and it’s not something we need to spend tons of hard earned money on to make our bodies “presentable” to others. I’ve ALWAYS been thin, it’s how my whole family is, but we still have cellulite and stretch marks, you can’t see it on my videos because of lighting and video quality. I think we would be better off spending our time and money on pole dancing! lol
Thank you to the girls who also offered alternative methods for improving appearance of cellulite!

You’ll find all of the lessons here in the Stretching section, https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view_category/stretching-exercises

Yes! I have many individual lessons for stretching, these help you understand proper body placement and there are also two, 20 minute routines to help you improve your splits both front and middle. There is a routine for back mobility as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hD9tzV9HJEE
