What do I practice?
Tomorrow I am going to "pole practice time" at the studio I attend for the first time ever. I always go to classes where I am being taught a routine and told what spins to work on, but pole practice time is an hour to yourself to work on whatever you want. Since I have never done this before and I don’t own a pole….I’m not sure how to practice for an hour without a routine? Any tips? I’m at an intermediate level, working on my inversion at the moment. I’m not great at inverting and can’t always do it but I’m working on the arm strength to get it. But anyways, I’m off to go find videos of beginner spins that I have yet to learn to practice those tomorrow I guess. If you have any suggestions please leave them!

I don’t know if this will help or not, but I just made a trick reel today and it definitely includes several beginner to intermediate level spins (as that is currently my level of performance). I uploaded it onto youtube with the names of the spins listed in the video info. So maybe if you see one that you like that you haven’t done, you can give it a shot! You get the pole to yourself for a while, so just have some fun putting spins and tricks together.

Happy Poling!

Also, Redke71 has made a few vids which list moves according to level.
(Beginner: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8PLPi0M8bM;
Beginner-Intermediate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCMWELvogf4 and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC19xBqfeYk; and
Intermediate-Advanced: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CMxuL-e4Xo.http://www.wikipole.org can also be a great source of inspiration.
I always take a list of moves to my practices, so when I don’t know which move to practice next, I have a reminder of the possibilities.
Have fun!!

I always so strength training when I get there. Anything that I have thought of in my head, thats where I go to see if its plausible.

Yay! I finally get to meet you! Can’t wait. Do you think it would be weird to bring my laptop or something so I can have videos or something nearby for me to refer to working on spins with?
