oh great Veena! I havent seen that video before. Round off, so thats how its called 😀 great!
I have a similar problem, i can do a cartwheel off pole, but i do it to the left and I do a cartwheel mount to the right side of the pole… go figure.. been trying to do the full cartwheel with no luck, but I liked the way you progressed into it, going to try that.
and as a side note… you did all that for the first time in those 5 min?! damn… thats amazing! 🙂

seems like you are talking about 2 totally diferent moves… please correct me if i'm wrong…: there's the full moon trick, true grip, or like my weak variation with the split grip, where you flip to the OTHER side of the pole, no snapping of the arms on that one. and then there's the flip on the SAME side of the pole, that I dont know the name… I have it here, 2 diferent ways, at about 2.18

first from a very low hanspring and second from a cartwheel mount, both with true grip. those are much more tricky because you need to let go of the top arm at the right moment, too soon you'll fall on your head, too late and yes… i supose you could snap it. ask someone to hold you until you figure out the right timming, and only try them if you have REALLY solid mounts…

Some of you may not believe, but my dream move was to invert..! that says a lot about were I was both physically and emotionally, everything else since then is a bonus 🙂 The things that I'm most pround of are that i got the courage to come out with my head high to everyone about this passion and face the good and the bad that came along the way, and of course my latest achievment, becoming an instructor! my life did a total 180º turn this year thanks to pole, cant wait to find out what 2012 will bring 🙂

I've been where you are, actually I am… Also owned a business for 4 and a half years, been trying to save it or sell it for the past 18months with not luck… and finally had to accept that its over, save what i can and move on. I'm closing it at the end of the month… Because its too personal I'd rather not go further into it here.. check your indox in a moment 😉

MemberDecember 10, 2011 at 12:58 am in reply to: vertical dance online instructor qualificationI'm also taking the VD course atm! and i'm really enjoying it, i'm so glad I decided to do it, really had no business teaching otherwise, so I strongly recomend it.
To avoid the headache that would be making the videos (student shyness, language barrier, time consuming, etc) I'm doing the UK course.
emotioncatcher: If you want to know more about it, you know how to reach me 😉

One of my favorite movies growing up was Legend, so when I had to pick a nickname (way back in the days of mIRC) seemed like an obvious choice, both mysterious and androgynous. Over time It became part of me, my "virtual" identity. If its taken I use Lenda (legend in portuguese ).

Good question… lets see: its a great workout, empowering, fun, challenging, versitale, never boring, makes me feel sexy and healthy, great antidepressant… I could go on and on… mostly it just suits me, I was always fascinated by it and not only changed my life, it gave me life!

What Veena and Amy said, more like a lean back and not bad at all and not dangerous if done with control. I have it on the practice video from September at about 0:25.

I have no idea how this move is called… I entry from a gemini, and exit from the iguana mount… the entry does not look very pretty but it woks for me… I can make a video if it helps. Stardust was the one who taught me the move, maybe she can explain it better also 🙂
