    Don’t look at your feet! I think a few people said this, but it’s something that blocks me from inverting from the pole all the time. I haven’t actually been able to get this yet, but my teacher keeps telling me that when I "kick" my feet above my head (dont bring them up straight, bend your knees when you;re leaning back) and you have to let your whole body, including your head…..lean back. If you’re looking at the pole (to see if your feet are gonna make it), you’re not leaning back.

    Mary Ellen is great. I just got back from a week long trip to Jamaica where she was instructing. I definitely recommend her classes.

    I have dents in my ceiling. I tightened it too much (worried I;d fall) and now have a gorgeous half circle. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I recommend being careful.

    I’m new- What exactly is a challenge? I mean, I understand there is a topic, but are these "contests" or is there a certain spot where all of the challenges are/ can be viewed? Or is it just something fun to keep everyone thinking???
    Thanks!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
