    Hey Im forwards a little so the pole is against the side of my back obviously you cant be too far forwards because your shoulder gets in the way https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif and it stops you getting in a good position

    I do the teddy from standing – if you get vaguely into position whilst on tip-toes then you have a longer way to sink into the move. I grip most with my right armpit/inner arm (top) and also try to get abit of grip against the top of my outer right thigh/bum. Reach down and grip as far around the top of your thigh as you can and as you sink into the move, this will give you a better grip. It doesn’t really hurt that much now unless I dont quite get the positioning right and slip https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif but it does take some getting used to!
    hope this helps x

    I agree with ^ I look at my hands or the base of the pole if I’m inverting on spinny, it helps but you have to get used to it. You should NEVER close your eyes lol although I’m sure you’re smart enough to know that – I experimented at the beginning and found that not only does it make the sickness worse, flying across the room is also not so fun haha
