Hi welcome! Here are 30 different exercises you can do without a pole that will strengthen the whole body. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/52f90381-4458-4123-99e5-41150a9aa0eb Also for moves that require flexibility, I have many individual stretching lessons, full length stretching routines and I just finished developing my new 30 flexibility program that will guide you for 30 days!
I would say that having a pole at home will allow you to progress faster with many of the moves you listed, so I don’t see any reason to wait with that. 🙂
I’m sure others will have some suggestions too!

Everyone please do your best to get your helpful points across without belitting someone else’s post. This does not mean you must agree, but please be kind to one another.
As for depression, I really feel there is more than one type, and it’s up to you and your health care provider to figrue out if it’s a chemical issue or situational issue. Not medicating a chemical issue can be deadly, while medicating situational depression can also end up with a bad out come. I do think it’s very important to know which type of depression you are dealing with before choosing or not choosing meds!
Shadow, if the meds are working and the dr wants you to take them please follow thier suggestions and take it, contact them if it’s not working for you so they can help you. If you feel maybe it’s situational depression (some times life sucks and it’s HARD) talk with your dr just to be clear that meds are right for you. If you have a good dr they wont just throw medication at you, they will explain why you need it.
You are not alone with having depression and most of us here are FAR from “normal”…..anyway who wants to be boring and normal?? But really, I understand the desire to want to “feel” like you “think” normal should be, if that makes any sense lol! Pole can be great therapy for many things including depression. Please take care of yourself and know you have people here to support you. xoxox

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!!
