    Working on balance on the floor can help with balance on the pole too! Working on Handstands, elbowstands, forearm stands are all great.  Yoga poses that require balance are also helpful. Another thing to remember when transitioning from one move that requires balance to another is….go sloooooow. Take your time and don't rush to the next position.

    Head stands and any move that strengthens the core is essential for these moves.  While I have the core strength and can bust out straight edges like there is no tomorrow I have issues with anything that requires my body to be bent, mainly because my upper body is much shorter than my lower and finding the right angles has proved problematic.
