July 8, 2025 at 7:38 pm in reply to: BILMAN TUTORIAL?

Hi! I’d never heard of that trick, but when I looked it up, it seems that it’s what I call a cocoon. Which can be done from an inside or outside leg hang. I know there are different names for this pose depending on the leg used, but I try to keep things simple.

I don’t have or know of a tutorial for it, HOWEVER….

Have you watched my Scorpio (inside leg hang) tutorial? If not I think you’d find it will provide what you need to enter into Bilman/Cocoon. https://www.studioveena.com/tutorial/scorpio-inside-leg-hang-1033/

Key cues to add to my tutorial for Bilman are:

A short scorpio for the inside leg

Once the scorpio feels secure, remove the inside arm from the pole to reach for the foot.

In this tutorial you’ll learn several variations for this move. These are short leg and long leg Scorpio and an open and closed Scorpio. You…

Yep, that’s exactly what I tell you to do in the intro, you’ve got the right idea. The first class lays the foundation for the other three so even if you don’t do that class, watch it.

What an interesting question!

I’ve not gotten into a physical fight with anyone, so I can’t say that it’s improved my ability to fight.

However, pole does as you mentioned improve all aspects of our strength, mobility and if you dance and not only work on tricks. You’ll improve your stamina, maneuverability and agility.

I have no doubt that most pole dancers could overtake someone who’s their size who doesn’t workout.

Thanks for sharing. I’m glad you were ok! Yeah the Ayesha is definitely something to work towards slowly. I teach the cartwheel and other mount options after you learn Ayesha from a Caterpillar or Gemini.

@Serzi I don’t pole dance much either, maybe 3 times a month. It’s very disheartening that you and I are often the only ones who use the discussions. I also long for the days of feeling like community.

I need to stop trying to get people to engage with each other here, but as you can see, it’s not something people want.

Even though community aspect is out of the question, the website and tutorials aren’t going anywhere so if you read this, don’t worry about that….

Can I first ask why you want a stage pole instead of a removable floor to ceiling pole?

Nice to see you back! I wanted to add that paid users can still upload videos from their profile. This makes it easier for me to provide feedback if someone want’s it.

This is one of my favorite intermediate level, spinning pole routines.

Departure – A practice in flow and expressing sadness, emptiness or longing. The first half of the tutorial contains minimal verbal cues, the second provided more in-depth cues for all movements.

How many combos or routines have you tried here? Which one is your favorite?

You totally can. I’m definitely not saying everyone should stop pole dancing if they’re pregnant. I will say, it’s not ok for instructors to tell women exactly what pole tricks are suitable when pregnant because everyone is very different. There just isn’t a once size fits all for pregnancy and pole so my goal is to provide a guideline so everyone can make the best decision for themselves. If you’re curious about my pregnancy pole journey I have a compilation video if you’re interested. 😄
