You’ll get use to it. You start to gain some type of super human powers lol

I used to get really dizzy, but after a couple of months of just powering through it I got less dizzy, the dizziness also goes away faster now! There's a light at the end of the tunnel.

Healthy Toni Thanks! The song is Murakami - Made in Heights

Thank you! xx

@@ThePoleDancer Every video I watch of yours, I love the music! Have you thought of doing a pole dance playlist? When people practice your videos it could help, and it's always cool discovering artists to check out and broaden musical taste.

Healthy Toni Funny you‘re asking. I do actually have a pole playlist that I‘m sharing publicly and that already has quite a few followers on Spotify www.thepoledancer.com/tutorials/best-pole-songs/

It‘s called a torso switch or a holy drop

This is exactly the part I keep watching over and over bc it's beautiful and looks super badass yet graceful, I love it and hope to be able to do it!!!

You usually start learning on the static pole, so don’t worry about the spinning pole. Depends on how easily you get dizzy (worst case motion sick). That’s very individual. Usually with practice the body builds tolerance to the spin

@@ThePoleDancer that sounds good. thanks for your answer!

Thank you so much! I don't have an instructor education program, but I can recommend elevatED.

@@ThePoleDancer thank u very much! is it an online class?

Unfortunately not, but they travel quite a lot. Check out their website.

@@ThePoleDancer oh ok, thank u again!

Girl, with the speed that you're learning... I don't think that it will take that long. It's really amazing how much you're able to figure out by yourself. Do you use any tutorials? Usually I recommend taking a few pole classes to learn the correct technique of pole fundamentals - arm grips, contact points and muscle engagement. Then it gets much easier to learn alone. Also, usually inverted tricks are not the first moves that beginners learn. But you're quite an unusual girl too. lol I admire your progress and dedication. Anyways, listen to your body, don't overtrain same muscle groups and take rest days.

Yes I watch a lot of tutorials before beginning. I like the tutorials that focus on the 'things NOT to do' and the little details on technique. It's definitely all the little things that really make a difference if you're 80% there.

Sounds great! I'm glad to hear that you're paying so much attention to the technique. Way to go! You're right - the common mistakes are so important.

Thank you, Isa! Maybe this could help you: www.badkitty.com/news/3-powerful-techniques-pole-flow/

Thank you, Erica! It's Murakami - Made in Heights

Haha Cool! Obviously

What song is this ? Lol

Great question, Jacquie. Sometimes it’s simply pole’s fault. The poles from my videos - in the school I'm teaching at, spin very fast and are more „loose“. They barely loose momentum. But my X-Pole at home got more tight through the years (need to install it again) and stops spinning very often. Other than that, I think that the smoothness and dynamics of your movements are a big influence. When you’re not following the circular momentum of the spin, let’s say through cutting moves short or reaching across, you’re creating a friction. Depending on the pole, it could be hard to make it spin again. Try creating a circular momentum again, for example through swinging with your leg sideways. Not directly front, back or up but sideways in a spin motion. Also pulling out on the pole keeps the spin smoother and prevents deceleration through the gravity, which is pulling down.

thank you so much-very helpful!

Hey honey, I'm happy to help but would you please send me an email to miglena@thepoledancer.com? It will make the communication easier. :*
