Making an iguana mount not totally awkward
Hi Veeners and Veena! I'm thinking of entering a very exciting (to me) amateur pole competition, and one of the required moves is an iguana mount. I was just wondering if anyone has or knows of any videos with an iguana mount performed attractively in the middle of the routine? The whole bending over, fumbling for the pole thing seems pretty hard to sell.
I'm fine with the move itself. I don't quite have the strength to do a complete deadlift into it, but I can get by with the teensiest of hops (like seriously, just going from flat foot to on toes is enough momentum) and then press up. My problem is the bending over and grabbing the pole part without making it look like "Oh look I'm interrupting my dance to prepare for a move"
I was practicing today, just going into a sexy squat thing, then folding down, and sort of doing this windmill arm thing (hard to explain but it wasn't too weird) to grab the pole with one arm then the next. I suppose with practice it could look passable, but I'd love to think of something more creative.
There's going to be a workshop for the entrants to help us figure out how to incorporate it (and the other compulsory moves) into the routine, but I want to come up with something uniiiiiiique! Because I think I'm a very special snowflake. And also because I'm going to be one of the least experienced and skilled in the division. But mostly because I think I'm a very special snowflake.
