Veena and Veeneers, I tried all your suggestion and although I am not yet perfectly flat, it was the flatest I have ever been. I will need to practice it more to perfect it. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif

joni1….I don’t teach to rotate the leg…so I am not sure if you were asking me. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
In the lesson….Your rotating the torso/chest away from the pole. Its not a huge movement at all but the slight adjustment is helpful…Did you try it yet? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
Veena, I was quoting Amyshi with the rotation of the leg/knee from the hip joint. And no I haven’t tried the suggestions/lessons yet. I’m still surfing all the forums. I worked out and stretched for my splits for 1 1/2 hrs and practiced my TG mount and other tricks before I started surfing. But i will try it out tom or sat. Thanks so much for all the great advice, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif -
I have a "Jade" lesson Split Hip Hold…http://ver3.studioveena.com/lessons/view/2811" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; new one will be posted soon. One of the other key factors is the position of the torso and the method in which you enter the move. Some methods will produce a flatter jade easier than other. Not only do you need to understand the leg positioning like the others mentioned the torso and legs must be close together before extending fulling in to the split position and the torso should turn away from the pole. If you understand how to turn the body you can hold on without the aid of your arms on the back of the pole! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif All of this and more is in the new lesson. rotate your leg in the hip socket so that the knee is turned, your toes are closer to your face and your heel is pointed out and away from you. also make sure you push your butt up and into the pole with your back hand! in the jade, your hips don’t have to be square like they do when you are training your splits.
So, I’m not sure if I am clear on this. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif My right leg is the front leg, pull my torso up more into the pole before I lower my back left leg. Once my right front leg is forward, rotate my hips into the pole to rotate my knee in while pulling my front leg, heel and upper body rotate outwards away from the pole. Is this correct. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_question.gif Veena, I watched your split hip hold vid which I didn’t even know was there, Must have missed it when it 1st came out and I am just unclear about rotating the torso to my left or right if my right leg is my front leg. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif -

Thanks Charley, Gpoledance and Roxy Pink, Oversplits it is. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif My front leg is all the way down touching the floor. My silk instructor said its my back leg flexor muscle stopping me from getting all the way down. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mad.gif I will start stretching into my oversplits. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif But with my back leg flexor being the problem, should I raise the back leg, front leg or both legs https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif I’m really hoping to get at least one of my front splits down flat before the end of the year. That my goal. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif

I have 6 pole/stages https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif in brass, chrome, stainless steel and powdered coated and my favorite is hands down BRASS. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif It is the perfect bend of grippyness for me https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif . And chrome comes a close second. I love to do advance tricks on my powder coat pole but its a painful burn https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif to slide down from it. And I just slip and slide on the stainless steel https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif . But I feel if I can master the stainless steel, I would be able to pole anywhere https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif . Most of the dance clubs I go to has brass. Never tried titanium pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif
