Most of the stretches suggested here are in the lessons for those who are interested. If you look at the descriptions it will tell you what muscle groups are being stretched and they are also placed together in muscle groups, so you can pick and choose what stretch works best for you. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif Oh, also once you've worked on the individual lessons for stretches then check out the 20 min Back mobility routine!

Yeah I wouldn't call it a Teddy drop, she's not holding on with the arm pit at all, just the hands. So it's a V invert aka chopper drop. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

LOL yep! I may not have much, I call them hootlets, instead of hooters! But they have been through 4 rounds of breast feeding and pole does perk them up! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

It’s always possible to increase your flexibility at any age! Have you tried using the stretching lessons here they’re meant for all levels! I’m not a natural back bender and didn’t start working on my back until I was 33.

However pregnancy isn’t the time to work on improving flexibility, because if the hormon “relaxin”. You will already have more flexi ness then before pregnancy so you could over stretch! It’s totally fine to stretch though, just avoid really going crazy with it and be gentile 🙂

I rent at the moment, and have put up many xpoles in other homes we've rented with no issues. As long as your ceiling isn't old an rickety or rotted and you follow the instructions to place the pole directly under the center of the stud, and tighten the pole properly it should be fine. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Ouch! It's probably fine just sore from over doing it. But if it doesn't improve soon see a doctor.
It's important to remember that spins are very hard on the wrist, elbows and shoulders, and most spins are not appropriate for new dancers. I'm not sure if your taking lessons here or elsewhere but I would suggest working on moves that build strength first, then move on to spins.
Rest and stay away from spins until it's healed Sending healing vibes. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

AdministratorFebruary 15, 2013 at 2:40 pm in reply to: Is it safe to still do abdominal stuff while pregnant?I should also add that focusing on working the Transverse abdominal is best. To help avoid unnecessary issues with Diastatsis (abdominal separation) don't do heavy ab work like crunches or things that focus on the rectus abdominis (6 pack)
A lot of abdominal exercises can be modified and done against a wall. If you have the lessons you can do the Switch but standing against a wall instead of laying down. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
