Day 3! 🌈 Sitting Twist! http://instagram.com/p/zvnwSWJAVw/
Beginners can stay facing forward. Keep the spine tall as you twist and check out my lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4def767e-f9f4-4049-9d57-2c8d0ac37250 💜 for more help. Try variations of flexing the foot of the straight leg or looking forward.

Day 4! 🌈 Bow Stretch http://instagram.com/p/zyJsbJpAR7/
You’ll see I show 3 quick levels of difficulty. Check out my lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4de90c77-cc0c-4d78-8b47-1c7b0ac37250 for more help and options. Don’t let the legs flare out to the sides, don’t reach the head back if it’s not comfortable, keep the shoulders away from the ears!

Yikes, I will have to play catchup on this! I have never done an SV challenge but this will help keep me stay motivated since I am taking a couple months off the pole due to an injury. I may have to post some old vids of some of the moves I have video of, like twisted ballerina and the spins. As for things like Janeiro and Allegra…well, whereas I would have been up to try those, I may just skip those for now, haha. But you never know!!! I may just try the Allegra in a few weeks. Very excited to have this motivation to stay in the pole mindset 🙂

Day 5! 🌈 Upper Back Stretch http://instagram.com/p/z0scn1JAUk/
It’s getting serious and I can tell I’ve not been training for months ðŸ˜
Stretching the shoulders, chest and improving mobility of the middle and upper spine! Please check out the lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/548cc95a-8a40-4872-9a8a-2b490a9aa0eb if you’re unfamiliar with this stretch. 💜
Do NOT begin the stretch with the lower back arched (butt out) this will compress the lower spine too much. Enter with neutral pelvis, abs in, leading with the Chest then slowly lower down allowing the spine to arch.
Can be done with two hands over head against a wall or one hand against a doorway. -
Oh man, this stretch looks so good I want to kiss it… With tongue.ðŸ˜

I’ve been posting to IG @nettiemarie79 . Here’s my submissions for days 1-4. I posted videos for the spinal contractions and knee tucks on IG but I took screen shots of them for here.

Day 6! 🌈 Marley. http://instagram.com/p/z3VtmQpAZE/
This is Advanced!! In my lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/4f985686-ab20-4fdf-a0b7-29570ac37250 you’ll see I suggest never grabbing the top hooked leg first. It’s much safer to grab the free leg first then IF flexibility allows, grab the hooked leg too. Grabbing the top leg first can place a tremendous amount of stress on the knee!
Please check out my lesson for help and variations 💜 -
I was going to do it yesterday, and ended up getting roped into helping the boyfriend with his paperwork (I didn’t mind so much, he’s paying me), and then I was gonna do it today, and I’m sick again!
Rawr!
I’ll catch up, I promise!
