    I’m still a newbie but I’m all for a “basics” challenge! This is going to be so much fun! I haven’t had my IG activated for some time now… looks like a good reason to dust it off

    I am looking forward to this. I’m still a complete newbie too and after having a break I feel like I have forgotten a lot of the basics so hopefully this will help keep me on track 🙂 Need to sign up for instagram now though!

    Oh my goodness…. I tried to record a day or two today since I’ll be skiing this weekend…

    My thoughts after an hour of firemans, walking and body waves:

    I forgot how hard body waves are. My fireman is ok. I mean it looks like a fireman, outside of hair whips Im not sure what else to do. Hahah. And the walk, well, I tried a few things… in heels. Hopefully there is a 15 sec clip without bloopers ::P

    I think I need to try again tomorrow!

    I have been practising fireman, body waves, crucifix, flirty fireman, back hook spin and pole walk. Pole walk is AWFUL I look like a pigeon with hiccups.

    This challenge has caused me to pull the trigger on getting my own pole, which will be here any day now. I’m soooo excited!! I love doing challenges with this community. Depending on when my pole arrives I may be starting the challenge late but who cares?! It’s gonna be so fun to see everyone doin’ their thang. 🙂 what a wonderful way to build community these challenges are. I love you guys.

    I’ve been taking local classes for 2 years and just joined SV. I’m really excited! Pumped about being able to take part in this challenge and push myself to learn and perfect new skills.

    Allyson and Tropical,you are both funny. However, totally understand how you feel. There is a lot I am uncoordinated for, etc, so we will see. Wonder if we get a free pass to replace with something else lol. I might need a lot more than one pass. 😜

    Ok just wanted to say I’m not going to do this Challenege daily, I’m only poling once or twice a week right now and don’t want to take myself too serious!!! Hahaha. But really for me it’s coming down to finding balance and before i took my pole down there wasn’t much balance and I don’t want to fall back into that. I look forward to seeing you lovelies work these basics ! I am doing the 30 day challenge that seems to be enough for me right now, will work on them when I have my pole day as well;)

    Blaaah, I may not be able to start tomorrow. I’m not quite healed from my surgery, still have stitches, so I’m instructed “Not to do anything strenuous.”
    Fireman spin isn’t so strenuous, but… I’d actually like to do cool things with it, so…. we’ll see. As soon as I’m back on the pole, I’ll have my videos up though!

    I’m very excited to take part in the challenge! I love challenges, they give me some added focus and to return to basics and polish them up is a great thing! I have been away from home for over a week and between the travel and the craziness of the holidays, I have gotten behind around here and on ig, so I’m feeling very out of touch, but I will do my best to keep up! I may have some combined posts.

    Mine is also on Instagram for now! So much cringing… but it will get better. My room will be cleaner, my workouts will happen again (once my face heals), and it’ll just be better!
    Anyways, racing-driver excuses aside, I DID do it!

    I’ve been trying to record myself for the first time these last 2 days and between camera angles and bloopers it’s pretty hilarious. I’m recruiting help tomorrow lol

    Day 2: http://instagram.com/p/xW612wjLO7/

    Hoping to keep with the matching emojis. 🙂

    I recorded this a day or two ago because I’m going skiing this weekend at my parents ski house (same goes for tomorrow). Hopefully I’ll get back in time to do Sunday’s challenge… I didn’t record it because I wasn’t 100% sure what a squat was. Didn’t know if that was facing towards or away from pole. 🙂

    I have such a mental block about pole walking. In heels on hard floors I can do it but on carpet I just can’t, and I have tried and tried all week – so I recorded a fairy tip toe spinning cheating thing instead. Sorry everyone. I am not good on the floor off my pole.
