Great question! I do feel for some dancers spin can be better for the wrist etc. Something else to keep in mind, the size of the pole, and the size of your grip. If you have small hands on a large diameter pole it can be more challenging to grip with out over gripping!
Building up the strength you need for static spins and not working on them too often can help save your wrists, elbows and shoulders too! I personally do not work on many spins, MY body doesn’t like it, I’m taller with long limbs, I’ve never had strong wrists, and I want a long pole life so I try to stay within my limits! If I plan on doing many spins I make sure to work on conditioning exercises for a few sessions before I do a heavy static spin session. You would want to condition longer if you are NEW to pole. xoxo

I’ve danced (sexy) in front of a crowd with no problem….however, when I dance for my man, there’s always a bit of hesitation! I think it’s because when you do anything whether is cooking a meal or dancing, for the one you love you want it to be just right!
Honestly though, most guys doing wait for us to do crazy pole tricks, they want smooth, sensual and confident movement.

However, they can be a great incentive for people to work on something together and get out and take time each day to workout. So for that reason they can be helpful!!
I think the best options for those type of challenges are the yoga or things of that nature when you are trying a new pose each day. Have you done a yoga one yet Joel?

Those two are not already recorded but it’s alway possible. I have more left to post that have been recorded already. 😊

Also if it’s not painful often it’s fine,but I would see a dr. The warm up contain squats but the ab challenge doesn’t and. More of the pole work doesn’t use any squatting either. Also be sure to check your form, knees never past toes and try staying up higher instead of squatting too low. The take off addressed all muscle groups equally so it’s possible the knees may feel better after completing it!
I’m not aware of any issues with the video 🙂

Yes, BREATHE! It’s super common to for us to hold our breath because we’re so focused on the move it’s self! 😡 try working on elbow or handstands to become accustom to breathing while inverted.

Every pole dancer has bad days, it’s part of the process but still very frustrating!! Just know you’re not alone and it will get better!
