    Oh and try steam cleaning your pole, gets all the gunk off and warms it too!

    One thing home polers forget is they need a good warm up. If your grip is an issue and it’s not due to sweating, then make sure your getting the pole and your body warm.

    There are studio owners that have great success using the Veena method. Iys pretty much layed out for you in the lessons if your intersted. 🙂

    I remember that video of your attempts! I agree that the tuck doesn’t alway work best for the cartwheel.

    Don't feel bad at all Nessie. Spins are not beginner moves and require you to build up strength before working on them. Try starting with the basics, everyone can learn to pole dance! Also keep in mind that the dancers in pole comps have trained hours and hours a day. 

    I would suggest talking with your dr about flexibility and your tummy tuck. 🙂

    Yes, a video would help us help you. 🙂 

    Here is an OLD tutorial I made for YT doing the cartwheel mount. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTxwC6v14Pg Pay attention to the "wrong" examples, other than holding the hands too high, keeping the butt out and not getting the butt and hips up over head is the biggest issue. 

    Here is a video showing the differences between cartwheels and handsprings. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sag8kwfYBmU

    Yay that’s good your not staring with the tg!! Nothing wrong with tucking either, just not something you hear other instructors use. I use the tuck method too. However I think the tuck works best for handspring and no so much for cartwheel. Handspring is stepping under the body head moves back. Cartwheel is stepping forward head moved foreword and down.

    Fear is a huge issue for both the handspring and cartwheel so watching others do it and literally telling yourself you can do it is very helpful. Again if you have the chance check out the lessons for the cartwheel and handspring here.

    Unless it’s reinforced then yes I would think so. At 14 feet my 45 mm pole had much more give than at the 11-12 feet it’s at now.

    Yes you hook the foot. What grip are you using? I’m wondering if it’s the twisted grip because you’re told to tuck?

    I really like my 45 mm titanium gold x pole. I’ve used it at the height of over 12 feet even. I like using the mount instead of the dome for the taller poles.

    The lessons here will help you so much a crash mat and shorts that allow for plenty of contact with the pole. 🙂
