Timeline for learning
Hey everyone!
I’ve been thinking about this recently, and I suspect that hearing other peoples’ answers might really help.
Unfortunately, I have no real sense of time, and I also have a hard time inhibiting the “All the things, RIGHT NOW” in my brain… which leads to some problems, as you might imagine.
One of the things that really sucks is when those two things crash together. In this case, it looks like this:
I need to do ALL the pole things, RIGHT NOW. They should probably all be perfect in two days.I recognize this is not a realistic timeline (or goal), but the problem is… I don’t know what IS realistic. So, I throw myself at my pole, try to do as many things as I possibly can all at once with no plan, and then wonder why I’m so tried, frustrated, and feel like I’m getting nowhere. It’s hard to make progress, and it’s hard to feel like I ever will.
So, what amounts of things do you feel comfortable tackling at the same time? How do you keep it a comfortable amount of moves/movements, without either getting overwhelmed, or bored?
And, how long does it seem to take you to go from “I can’t even really do this” to “I’m pretty good and feel like I could move on, and comfortably incorporate this into freestyle/choreography”?Thanks for your help!
(Also yes I am still planning on doing videos… I just have to work out a few logistical things. Has it really been that long since I got back on here?!)
