Yeah that was the house, I really miss that space. 😕
I’ve always kept my hands up higher then crotch area, I think…I haven’t done it in forever, but I recall holding between belly and chest level. Jamilla is a good instructor so keep at it.

Never place the pole on your coccyx (tail bone)!! You’ll want to have it off to the side of butt cheeks. I don’t have it in lesson, but here is a video where I spin into it and you can see the pole is not in the middle of my butt or crack or vajayjay! lol
Other tips would be to be sure and lower the hips down all the way before opening up the legs and keep the hands high.
Here it is at the very end @ 2:15 isn

My nails grow fast, so sometimes they are medium length or long, but usually I try to keep them short if I’m poling a lot. I’ve ripped my skin pretty good a few time with long nails. Usually along the thighs as others mentioned. 🙂

What Kasanya suggested! Negatives are great for building strength, just do them slooooow, as she said.
Also things to add, try working on the Scissor climb and the lessons suggested below the scissor climb lesson to help you build strength. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/18f06262-b91f-11df-856f-001b214581be
For off pole training try some of the back and bicep exercises in this video https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/52f90381-4458-4123-99e5-41150a9aa0eb

Babies love to be held, and of course they NEED this snuggle time, however learning to entertain themselves, I think it’s an important part of development!! You may have to deal with crying for a while until he understands you can’t hold him all the time, the older they get the harder this habit can be to break. When my kids went through a clingy phase, I used words, not baby talk, and explained that it’s time to play or mommy has to do some work. I would put my kids in a safe place, (but never their bed, because I saved the crib for sleeping only) so a play area that is inclosed worked for me, or walker. You will have an angry baby, the first few times but they learn fast if you are consistent. Try to keep things on a schedule and it will help him understand what to expect. To this day all of my kids respect my workout and pole time. When my youngest was little I would have him in the room with me (but in a play seat so he was safe) while I poled or worked out, so I could keep an eye on him. Kids need to see mommy’s taking time for themselves too. 🙂

Are you asking about my shorts in the photo?

lol, I can see why that would become a source of confusion if you thought everyone used a clock method. 🙂 I’m glad you like my style of teaching, my goad is always to keep it simple!

The only time I could think it would matter would be when performing with someone else, then you would want to use a count, this would keep you in time. The number of steps it takes to get around a pole will vary, because of leg length, a personals natural stride and the style of walk that is being done. Looking at it as a clock seems complex to me, but it might help someone who needs to know EXACLY where to put their feet.
The distance from the pole, for static spins, has more to do with how close the hips are then how many steps it takes to get around. Hips distance away from the pole and timing of the push and swing leg will give the best static spins. I wouldn’t over think the number of steps needed unless you were performing with someone or you were creating a routine and wanted to insure you wound up in a particular place before you spin.
