Yes that’s a reverse grab. The lesson for it is in the link of the previous post.

Can you explain what this spin is? I'm not familiar with those names. Do you mean Reverse Grab? If it is I have a lesson that breaks it down for ya https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Hi actually! As Chem mentioned I have strength and conditioning lessons. If you have signed up for the lessons be sure to start by watching each of the Getting Started videos at the beginning of each section. They will give you ideas on how to plan your pole sessions. Also, all lessons are place in order with a focus on strength building first, so there is no need to jump around trying to figure out what to work on next. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Eatvegancookies, I had the same problem when I lived in Minnesota. I would warm up and my pole was warmed too, but then, if I slowed down, or took even a short break I would cool down to much to grip. It seem to help if I put Lubriderm lotion on the night before I danced. Also I found that, the Titanium gold finsish worked best for me in cold weather.

If you want to search for other challenges we've had… you click on the "Discuss" button at the top of the page then you'll see a bunch of "categories" you can look at. The challenge category says "studioveena.com challenges" you can find all of them there. Feel free to do any one of them at anytime! As Webmaster said, just include the work "challenge" in the title.
Also we keep the challenge for the month up at the top of the site in the "featured" section. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_harry.gif

It's always great to work on fundamentals! Here is a great example of how great "basic" moves can look fab! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi25Vm38gwY&feature=g-high-u

The x-pole will not make a hole in your ceiling! So I would take a look at those, they cost a bit more but you get what you pay for when it comes to poles! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Personally I would place the twisted grip on the back burner for now. Focus on increasing strength and control in your other moves. It really frustrates me that studios teach the twisted grip This grip should be left for professional level dancers, even then, I am far more impressed with other grips. Anywho, If you do decide to work on it again, try using a twisted grip coming off the pole, not as a way to mount the pole. This will allow you to work on controlling the movement. I would not work on deadlifting. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif
Here is an old video of myself working on an iron x, so you can see what I mean about doing it from on the pole instead of as a mount. read the description too.

Yeah I still get bruises! Another possibility is that you need more iron in your diet, but, I still find black and blue marks everywhere, especially when I take a week for two off and start up again.
Try to do a video for us with several angles…or if you have a webcam I can meet you in the chat room some time and we can take a look at your Gemini.
