    Day 17! ☔️ #svaprilabs – Hold Spin (on Static)! https://instagram.com/p/1iokeMpAaw/

    Here’s the lesson showing BOTH static and spinning pole https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4fe0ab18-19fc-4bd0-8983-03e40ac37250
    To hold this spin (and make it look straight) you HAVE to use your core, making this not only great for the upper body but abdominals as well. The first is a full Hold Spin (several revolutions) the second is a great place to start, just a small hop! Use whatever allows for best form! Please check out the lesson for more in-depth help!

    If using this as a strength builder perform 1-2 sets 3-15 reps BOTH directions, switching hand placement!

    Day 16! ☔️ #svaprilabs – V invert. https://instagram.com/p/1gCbtvJAZI/

    Here’s the lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4cc828d1-78d8-419f-b83b-1c610ac37250
    If you’re unable to perform a V invert, begin working on it from OFF the pole first as shown in the second clip. Use whichever option fits your level. Please avoid saying that you have “failed” when posting a variation…I’m sharing these to inspire and show that foundational moves are important and why proper grips and control is helpful if wanting to improve. It’s what the Veena Method is all about 💜 there is no FAIL, just different variations! You only fail if you don’t try at all!
    If using these to build strength perform 1-3 sets of 2-12 reps BOTH sides

    I’ve had one for months, so I could test it. I was waiting to talk about it until they told us it was available….never heard from them, but I see it posted to their IG today. 😏

    I suggest understanding what you fear, and then working through it, if you can’t pin point it, it can be hard to overcome. I really recommend using the wall not the pole if you worry about falling over. Also baby steps, I see you have the lessons so use the first step I give you for elbowstands. Just walk the feet up and down, bringing the hips up over the head…..do this everytime you practice and BREATHE. Holding our breath can cause us to feel anxious so don’t forget to breathe.

    Welcome!! The 30 day take off program is a great place to start, it will help you build a solid foundation. Once you have the basics down it will all come back! it may take time, but your body will remember. I also have a flexibility program, called 30 day to Flexy!

    It’s very common, what is it that you fear specifically?

    Here they don’t have a 40 PC otherwise I would have done that. I don’t like the smell of brass! Lol

    Yeah, I’ve only used it once and it was outside at the park while we were on our travels. The grip is nice but not as nice as the grip on the SV pole, I would still suggest it if you want a PC pole. I need an extension to use it in the new place and haven’t bothered to get one.
