Beginner Level 3: Day 13
Duration: 00:34:34
Today you’ll be practicing a few single pole tricks before working on three more combos on static pole.
Allow the videos to play in order and follow along. Feel free to pause anytime you need to.
Below is a list of direct links to each full length tutorial you worked on in today’s session. Remember you only need to click on these if you’d like more help or information.
Omg so much fun! Especially the school girl routine. I see an improvement with the transition from chair spin to back hook – yay me💃💃💃
I really didn’t like the beginner 10 combo…specifically the step behind and the pole turn. I couldn’t get those 2 moves right. Actually it was more the pole turn that I had the issue doing it smoothly. I just didn’t like the step behind.
That makes sense. I think step behinds are better for freestyle than routines.
MEOWCH. Thigh rest hurts on bare skin. . . I’m usually in sticky leggings but opted for booty shorts because it’s like 80 degrees in Houston! Definitely harder with my right arm on top. I’m in a bit of a fibromyalgia flare at the moment so my shoulders keep tightening up and I don’t quite get my hips stacked on that side. I’ll get it eventually.
On the other hand, the climb and hug was relatively easy. Amazing how dropping your butt makes all the difference.
Right?! Little tips make all the difference
It’s finally cool enough here in Florida to use my sticky legging now and then. Tho I prefer skin contact on the pole. Poor shoulders 😞
Chronic pain sucks but pole does help! It’s done quite a bit for my mobility.
That’s good, I’ve heard movement is helpful for fibromyalgia!
I spread this one out over. . . uh, several days. Holidays and the post-holiday doldrums have slowed me down, but it was good to throw on some music and either do these separately or string them together for a longer combo.
Hope you had a great holiday! Welcome back!
Day 13 complete 💪💪
This was alot of fun 😁
Climb n hug hmm gotta practice more with elbow pit grip it was a bit ouchie but I’ll keep at it x
Loving the combo’s though and the stretches after , I’m all ready and nimble for my burlesque class 😘 whoop whoop xx 💕
hub hub, have fun in class!
💃 they don’t do a chair dance emoji 😁😂 well I will as long as it doesn’t get cancelled again 😔 but I’m on a high anyway after day 13 program with you xx🩷
I think there needs to be a pole dance emoji! xoxo
Most definitely 😀 that would be awesome xx they do giffs so why not an emoji xx 💕
The thigh rest is still so tricky for me. I’m definitely improving, but have to remind myself constantly to bend my top arm. I feel like my bicep isn’t strong enough yet to do the work it needs to. The climb and hug was neat though, I felt like a little koala bear up there haha!
After going through the combos a few times, I put them all together and dance to one of my favorite songs! I enjoy the creative process of coming up with transitions to link them all too ✨
It’s common for people to struggle with the Thigh rest. It may not be that your bicep isn’t strong enough. You might not be in the right position. If you wanted to share a video I could troubleshoot it for you.
I think that’s awesome you put the combos together to music you enjoy!
That would be great! Next time I practice thigh rest I’ll take a video and send it to you
Sounds good it’s probably a simple adjustment!
