Kinda strange, calling it pole dance though. If it is Chinese pole then they should explain what the contraption is. Otherwise their just gonna have a bunch of confused newbies. lol

I’m glad you felt you were able to tell us how you were feeling. I wouldn’t worry about lack of response to your vids. I have notices that if a dancer posts a lot of vids in a row, so on the same day, people (no matter how much they like you) will tend to not watch them all. Remember the average vid is 3 – 5 min. if someone post 4 vids on the same day, thats 20 min of just watching one person. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif I always love the music you use https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif and its nice to finally see your moves!! There will be a point in the near future, where I just wont have time to whats every vid everyone does. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif
Ok here’s a personal example….I was really proud of my California girl vid, I’ve been working on my "stage" presence and dance, I thought it was one of my best in that respect….but if I were to go by stars and number of comments? Its nothing great. LOL But I still think I did great! It is soooo hard, to not judge yourself by number of views and comment….If you only feel good about your dancing based on getting a response you be disappointed. We love ya Twista https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif Post for you! Dance for you, and measure your work against your personal best, don’t rely on others to do that. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
As far as missing your TG post…I too have posted something and no one has responded, sometime people only follow or check, on the front section to see new posts, so if its a busy day, some will get missed. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif -
I had posted a example vid on this twisted grip last week I believe. Its really hard to write out how to get into the position. I’ll give it a try.
Inside arm goes above your head, as if your going into a spin (normal grip).
keeping the arm in place walk your body across the pole (in front) until your arm is in the twisted position.
place the arm that was the outside arm but is now the inside arm, down below keep the arms straight but be careful not to hyper extend your elbow joints.
Give a kick with your outside leg to bring your hips over your head.
I would not try this move if you can’t do a solid straight edge/caterpillar or split grip mount of some sort. This move puts a tremendous amount of stress on your wrist/forearms and shoulders. Strong lats are must. BE CAREFULL. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I HAVE to pole in the morning or it just wont happen. Every time I tell myself "I’ll just do it at night" haha it never happens. I’m just ways to beat, once the kids are all in bed and I’m sitting by my hubby I don’t want to do anything.
My mornings look like this…get up, feed all the kid, make lunches for school, eat my breakfast, drop off kids, check emails…respond to critical ones only,( I break that rule a lot and end up wasting my morning https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gifops. then its time to feed Henry before his nap, lay him down, quick snack for me, CJ has TV time, and I go do a work out. Henry wakes up, If I’m lucky I got to shower. Time to make lunch, feed Henry, go get Will from school, come back ( I have less than an hour to be home) make myself lunch and a snack for Will. eat, do some dishes, time to get Alex,…. come home he has a snack, then its nap time for Henry, homework time for older boys, by the time all that is done, well its time to make supper (dinner), after supper its time to clean the dishes, put Henry to bed, get kids ready for bed and tucked in, then I pick up the house a bit and sit down to do more emails and work! I usually try to take a quick, super hot bath so I can stretch while I work or go over video’s. Wheeew…so you can see if I don’t do it in the morning its not gonna happen. I have one day a week where I get groceries, and house hold supplies, and that has to happen in the morning during my work out time. Then there are just days where house work and trying to have play time with my boys takes up the morning so I don’t work out. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif Well off to feed Henry before his morning nap! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/bom.gif I’m supposed to do legs for my work out today, we’ll see if that happens https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif -

Oh the good thing is with the new video cam I can upload vids the same day I do them..bad news is I don’t know how to use it very well yet…Just watch the vid and you’ll see….We had been talking about this full cartwheel thing, and I wanted to try it, I should have warmed up, I literally just got off the couch and gave it a try. My right shoulder and elbow are not happy right now because I neglected to warm up. I’ll be ok though.

I AM SOOOOO MAD! So I’m sitting here on the couch and thought hey, I’ll try that cartwheel thing…So I got off my butt, got the video cam and wanted to record my FIRST attempts. so I manage to figure out how to do the full cartwheel, BUT IT DIDN’T RECORD! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif So I did it again but its not the true first attempts, I could cry, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif I’m mad, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mad.gif I never get my first attempts on vid!! I don’t know if I’ll post it cuz its not really the first attempt but I did fall once LOL. I HATE TECHNOLOGY. I’ll defentily be doing a vid on the differences between the two (cartwheel/roundoff) for youtube at some point to help spread the word.

I am finding some group in-person aerobic certification and choreography classes through them in my state – do think these would be as beneficial?
AFAA is good to, in person is always the best, for me it wasn’t an option because I was living in ND at the time….land of nothing…………
