We all have those days Slkysmth. I feel old today too after that Skype with Luvlee. It was supposed to be a cardio day but I needed the rest and decided to foam roll. Tomorrow was scheduled rest, if I have time I’ll do some hooping or maybe go for a walk. 😊

Hurrah Cazzz! That sounds like a lot of fun. Just don’t let yourself get stressed out trying to do so much that you forget what you love about pole. 💖

If you have no real experience your resume needs to reflect your knowledge and expertise. Definitely include any relevant education, workshops, etc. Be creative, first aid is even valued as an instructor, but is not necessarily a”dance” skill.
For the routine part maybe don’t worry about doing a whole song, but rather 2 min or so. I would focus on good flow, and great lines (she specifically mentioned your point). If you want to show off some trickster skills come up with your one most amazing aerial combo (that you can reliably perform). That way you get the best of both worlds. Good luck on the interview! -
Well I did my conditioning today just before a scheduled Skype with Luvlee. Then we poled for an hour. So I’m wiped! Good news, I got my SG aysha thanks to a couple tips from Luvlee. The camera was running so hopefully I’ll have a pic up soon!

The pole sit is a little trickier if you have trouble crossing the thighs but still very doable. Cross at the ankles if you can or else you have to just squeeze those babies together hard, engage every muscle in your legs, and tilt the hips to one side. You can do this! Remember everyone had trouble with this when they started pole, and yes it hurts, but it gets better I promise. 😆

Slkysmth, if you have a foam roller you should try it on that hammie. Feel better soon.

Hi true. Welcome aboard!

Didn’t feel like doing anything when I started, but after warning up I really enjoyed my stretching time.

Got in some hooping practice today. Was going to pole too but ran out of time. 😔 Looking forward to a Skype session with luvlee Monday afternoon.

@Sarah Carr If you look further up this thread Wild Lotus posted her weekly workout plan and I’ll post mine here too. It might give you some ideas on how to make your own or just modify one of ours to suit your schedule.
Sunday: lower body flexibility, working on splits, Veena’s routine or a stretching DVD.
Monday: upper body/core, conditioning, pick 3-5 upper body/core conditioning lessons or Veena’s routine, pole work.
Tuesday: lower body, cardio, dance class, hooping, freestyle.
Wednesday: rest day, foam roll, flow motion routine, light dancing, walk, conditioning for small muscle groups (ie. Hands/feet)
Thursday: upper body/core, flexibility, back mobility routine.
Friday: lower body/core, conditioning, pick 3-5 lower body conditioning lessons or Veena’s routine, pole work (with focus on lower body lines, pointed toes).
Saturday: upper body/core, cardio, hooping, freestyle, choreography.
Remember to warm up before you start and do some light stretches when your done. None of my workouts take more than a full hour and many take much less. The idea is to just do something everyday!

Me and my childhood friend used to call this one “the farting pose” lol! 😂
-
Yay Cazz! You finished the abs. And only 2? More days to go on the take off. You’re so close, I know you can finish this. 😆
-
Today was supposed to be a back mobility day but in the spirit of listening to my body i did lower body instead. Veena’s hard core warm up followed by front splits routine. Actually had to leave before I finished the routine, we ran out the door to go see the partial solar eclipse!

Today was my rest day! Went for a long walk with hubby and dog after the sun went down. It’s a clear night and the sky was full of stars. It’s only about 2 degrees Celsius (or 34 degrees Fahrenheit) here this evening, getting chilly. 🙂
