Yes, Sassypants! I know exactly what you mean. I am in the "fine tuning" stage that you write about. I have certain tricks that I can do that I thought, "Wow! I would love to learn that. Well, I have, but like you stated, instead of thinking, "What's the next awesome move I can learn?" I am going back and fine tuning. I too am working on nicely executed inverts, as well as a pretty climb. Makes sense. I don't think there is right or wrong way. If someone wants to keep learning tricks….so what? There really is nothing wrong with that. For me, it really is about having fun. And now, I am having fun "fine tunig" : )

I love watching tricks. I think my favorite moves are pole tricks and floor tricks. I will tell myself, "Practice floor work. You don't do enough of that." And then on the floor, all I want to do is practing rolling over. It's the kid in me. I want to tumble around and flip over. I like everything in pole though. The dancing, pirouettes, pretty climbs, tricks. I am posting a link below to one of my favorite routines. Strictly trick focused.
Many people here on SV have probably already seen this. She is a pole legend. Anyone new to pole will like learning and watching this person, Sarah Cretul.

Congratulations! I love this performance – your movements, style, choices in choreography – music….the costume. Don't think I have left anything out. It's fabulous https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I know what you mean about "local" classes in the actual Santa Cruz area. For sedusastudios, you have to drive down "the mountain." That road still scares me. People drive soooo fast!

Zahara Rose – I have a recommendation for you. Go to http://www.sedusastudios.com.
There a several studios in the bay area. I went to a studio in Campbell. Loved it! There are a variety of classes from beginner to advanced levels. The students are very fun too and get dressed up for class. I grew up in the area you just moved to. Know all about the "Boardwalk." There are a few people from that area that post here on studioveena. You will eventually interact with them. I know live in Florida. Have visited sedusastudios while visiting back home to Northern California. You will eventually find a pole community there : )

@ MaliciousMynx – I like the updates. Fun to read. Thanks for posting. Trying next to go to the international link now to watch performances : )

Thanks for posting the link again, GledreB.
Just watched it, Wow!
My two quick thoughts are:
1) I read she trains in Russia. The Russians are leaders in dance. The U.S. is a leader in dance as well. Wondering if we have any star children training but we just haven't seen them yet? Russia may be leading the way on this one. But you never know? We may also be seeing what will happen if the Olymics accepts pole dance. I support what we see in this video. This 8 year old is doing what pole dance is all about: combing-dance, gymnastics, theatrics on a vertical pole. She is super talented. Can I be her when I grow up?
2) Boy….now after watching that little Superstar….I feel really big and clunky https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif.

I agree with the other posts that this is a bad job offer. I have heard of similar situations for jobs beyond classes and pole fitness. Someone I know who already had a current full time job interviewed at another company. At the interview this person was told, "If we hire you of course you will be required to turn in your current client list from where you are right now." The person thought, "No I would not do that. My current employer could sue me for such an action."

Want to please correct my spelling error in my recent post about advanced gemini/scorpio swithces. I meant to write, "Penny" has recently posted videos doing this move.
Could not find a "delete"…..and that sentence reads so goofy in my first post.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

Suggestion: Advanced gemini/scorpio switches. (Have seen this move referred to as 180 degrees.) This is a move that I have seen advanced people do where they do gemini/scorpio switches but then add "flip action" with their upper bodies. It looks like doing a gemini/scorpio switch but then also flipping your body around to the to other side of the pole real quickly first then then doing the leg switch. "Penny" has recented posted a few videos lately where I have seen this move. Thanks for asking for suggestions, Veena https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

tarah,
I have seen the "orange hands" you mention on someone else. I had a friend in high school who wanted to lose weight and tried a diet heavy, heavy in carrots and carrot juice. She did lose weight and she showed me how her palms had turned orange.

I agree! Love the videos. Thanks for posting : )

Thanks everyone. I am going to try the stronger levels beyond itac2. After posting my question, I also searched itac here at StudioVeena and found some older discussions about it. Very helplful : )
