Cat, I mean that split grips themselves can be done too often, and too soon. It’s not a natural or easy position for our bodies even in cup or regular grip and the shoulders still need to be able to stabilize the body, so conditioning is very important. However, I still feel TG is a bigger issue for more of the population than regular grip, they all can cause injury if not done with respect to our bodies abilities. I dislike TG so much because it is EASIER to HOLD when kicking up into, than a cartwheel or handspring done with cup or regular SG. It’s easier because the arm bone has rotated in the shoulder socket in a way that makes it feel “locked” into place, making balance less challenging. I believe that is why it became so popular…. it allowed more dancers to get into the inverted cartwheel/handspring position faster. Cartwheels and Handsprings done with regular and cup grip are HARD!

Hi! So glad to hear you’ve enjoyed the take off! Yes, you can just warm up and work on pole moves when you’re at home. Just remember to follow the lessons in order so you know what appropriate for your level 😊

I had to create a new YouTube account when I contributed to post vids while pregnant! It was fellow polers who flagged my vids and wrote me emails about how horrible I was and that I was a terrible example for pole. I expected it from the public be not from people I thought were in my “tribe” it hurt.
Now on to sexuality, I have sexuality and pole as a mom, listed as one of my scope topics for this week!!!!! Women can be sexy however they choose and it shouldn’t matter if they have kids!

Split grip was all I had figured out when I started!! I didn’t know elbow or forearm grips were used! 🙃
-
Ugh, typos!💩

There are lots of threads on this an among them are members talking about injuries because of the TG. I really believe it’s commonly taught only because they don’t know better and it’s “easier” than split grip! I will add that I also feel split grips are often over done too!
-
No deadlifting lessons. If you’re looking to do cartwheel to split grip Ayesha thats the cartwheel lesson..or handspring would work too. Same concept just ending in Straddle instead of straight legs.

You’ll find even more in the Veena’s tips section of the lessons.

I’m sorry I haven’t been able to broadcast on fb! The button has gone poof 💨ðŸ‘ðŸ¼ðŸ‡ Like magic 🎩 I’m guessing it’s still a beta thing and hope it comes back soon! Until then I’m on Perascope. I did one today on elbow, head, forearm and handstands! https://www.periscope.tv/w/acX91zFQWEtkb1lEQlpRZXZ8MWxQS3FXZ0FQb01KYnvDiOXo0lNIDtt8okp0ZY4JWc25Ke_c9IwHoEbkm_Bl

Not sure what the cost is on one I’m guessing the quality is fine. Hanestly, I don’t want handles to get in my way if I want to dance with my fabric. Im guessing if you want to spend less you’d be better off getting just Fabric for a Hammock. 6 yrs start at 80 I think here http://www.aerialempowerment.com/aerial-store.html
-
Are you talking about the fabric that is like a hammock? You’ll find lessons for hammock here!

Here are 2 more routines! The first is great for beginners and will focus on using your arms!! No more dead awkward arm as you pole or dance! lol
Super fun showgirl routine https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/56eb4783-6974-4b04-9cc8-085bac110003
The second is another hat routine, but the moves are advanced level. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/56f2d760-6d8c-4edc-82ad-1ef2ac110003
I hope everyone is enjoying all the new content!

Yes, still going strong and tons of new stuff! If you’re looking for a program to help you get back into pole the 30 day take off is perfect for that 😊
-
That’s great to hear guys! I did my first broadcast this morning feel free to check it out! https://www.facebook.com/studioveenacom/videos/10153747453564442/ Hopefully the link works!

Dew point is NOT for sweaty hands, it’s moisturizing ….so try using JUST the mighty grip or try a grip aid meant for sweaty hands like Dirty girl poletice or dry hands, things like that.
-
Hello and welcome! Let me know if you have any questions!
-
Hmmm, not sure if it would be a good solution for sweaty hands. As Cherish mentioned it’s super grippy! I use it for performing on cold poles in cold rooms.

I would say try placing these in the shoes or Sindhi go like these, to help fill in the gap http://m.target.com/p/fab-feet-ball-of-foot-cushion-khaki-3-pack/-/A-15034739?sid=2767S&ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&CPNG=PLA_Shoes+Shopping_Local&adgroup=SC_Shoes&LID=700000001170770pgs&network=g&device=m&location=1014242&lsft=gclid:CNO_zu-5zcsCFQaUfgodDdkIqA,gclsrc:aw.ds&gclid=CNO_zu-5zcsCFQaUfgodDdkIqA&gclsrc=aw.ds

Hi! I organized the lessons so you’re not having to switch back and forth for workouts so really you can use any of the methods you like. I know it’s a hassle to change out length. I try and use my Hammock at whatever length I’ve picked for a few days before moving it up or down. I’ve used a single strap to tie onto a carabiner and I’ve even tied the fabric onto the carabiner it’s self. I think daisy chains look nice but haven’t bothered to buy them yet. 😊
