The straight edge is more difficult because it takes more balance to hold that line. If your comfortable with your straight edge V aka aysha then try this.
Caterpillar up, stay in that tucked position….the farther out you are from the pole the harder this will be to hold. I like the forearm grip for this. DON’T ARCH YOUR BACK!!
From that tuck position try extending ONE leg straight up…slowly! Work on holding that….then try to bring the other leg up next to it. Once you have your balance that way then work on moving right from the tuck to releasing both leg up at the same time.
Make sure your solid in whatever grip your using, that way you can focus on your balance….breath…don’t hold your breath. lol
Try working on handstands against the wall or pole to improve your balance. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif

If your new to pole dance then backing off it a good idea. You can still do some floorwork and fun transitions and you can still have fun with it, just dance! Here is a good example of dancing with your pole without all the tricks.

Now if your not a beginner and your very comfy in your abilities, here are my guide lines, I used for my pregnancy.
With ANY exercise while preggers, be sure you don’t over heat, and don’t raise your heart level too high. Drink lots of water. Listen to your body.
1st Trimester…continue with moves you know but don’t work on new ones. Stick with what you have down and work on perfecting it.
2nd Trimester…No more inverts or climbs. Spins are fine if your joints don’t mind. if your a seasoned dancer it shouldn’t be a problem, but everyone is different.
3rd Trimester…This is a good time to work on dancing with soft hands, pointed toes (watch out for leg cramps tho) and hip rolls and enjoying your new sexy body. Most spins will be out..I was able to adjust mine, I found that by keeping my thighs pointing down, and not bringing them up to my waist for spins like the chair I could still do them and they were not a stain on my Abs. Here is an example of that…you can see I don’t do many spins at all and I keep my knees low.

With ANY exercise you have to talk with your DR first and make sure your fit to exercise while pregnant. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif LOL

The ladies are right the cover/sleeve is just for looks. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif And aligning the Xs will fix the spinny prob.

Pole dance alone will increase you strength and stamina thats for sure https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rambo.gif ….but if you find yourself hitting a plateau (your stuck in a rut) then heading into the weight room is a great way to get to the next level. Also I always recommend that anyone who has been sedentary (hasn’t been exercising) start off with the strength training lessons before moving on to the beginner pole moves, they can help prepare your body and prevent injury’s.
To stay in shape now I, pole dance about 2 times a week, stretch, almost every day, hoop, sometimes as a warm up for pole. and do yoga once a week…I am going to try and take time to do this more. When I first began to pole I had been weight training for years, then it tapered off as my love for pole took over. I still enjoy weight training but find that if I have a chance to get a workout in I choose pole!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Awww thank ya…yeah sometimes its hard for a new dancer to tell if someone is using a spinning pole or static. You’ll be just fine with your Kendra pole! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif Plus your pole is the smaller 45mm and I love using my 45mm for static spins, the smaller size is great for that.

You could just go with using your friends garage…maybe to save on cost she could help you pay for the pole too if she plans on using it. You would have money left over to buy heels and boots! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif Then you could get an X pole so if you ever do move, you don’t have to buy a new pole….also are there any rooms in your home that don’t have the vaulted ceiling? Maybe its worth moving some rooms around? We turned our huge master bedroom into my pole room and now we sleep in a small room in the house, but its worked out really well! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

Hmmm so its used on spin mode? Yes I wanna see too! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif

asiaticdiva I hardly ever use spin….almost all of my videos you’ll see I"m using my pole on static, and if its on spinny, I tell you in the description. But yes, with the right technique you can have beautiful spins on static. I teach you the technique in my online lessons so if you decide on those you’ll be flying around in no time. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

I Have tried ginger and unfortunately it has never been effective for helping my nausea. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif I lived on peppermint gum with my last pregnancy, it was a life saver. My method works well for me on spinny, so I’ll just go back to that once I have time to dance again. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

No, I have never heard of the PUMA method……So far what has worked well for me to get my body accustomed to spin was to only doi upright moves for the first few sessions then keeping it slow and controlled move on to inverting moves after 3 sessions or so. I tried everything under the sun when I was pregnant cuz I had morning sickness with them all and nothing worked but peppermint gum! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I rarely vomit when I get sick to my tummy cuz I think its the most horrible thing in the world! LOL so I can fight it pretty well (unless its the stomach flu) If I don’t take it easy at first on Spinny, I just end up feeling really sick for hours. I haven’t worked on spin since my last spin vid which was…April I think…eek So Whats the PUMA method?

I wonder where she got hers. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif
