Great floorwork vids. Thanks for posting. I really like Karol’s vid. I took her floorwork workshop where she taught us this routine. So it is a great review vid for me.

It took me a while too sitting up from the ckr even though I thought i had strong abs. But keep practicing sitting up from a foot off the floor in your ckr. I was strong in my ckr/car but couldn’t just sit up initially. But wanted to perform this at a dance club so I did a bow and arrow from the ckr and slid down the pole in a bow and arrow sexyly landing on my shoulder and did a shoulder roll fishflop to the floor in the mean time untill my abs was stronger to sit up.

I collect and have pretty much every dvd out there, ranging from amazing https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif to garbage https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif but my favorite learning tool is still Studio Veenas https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_queen.gif online lesson. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif I find her lessons are well rounded, well explained and broken down and professionally/beautifully filmed. Plus she has awesome floorwork and booty dancing https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif included which hardly any dvd has. Also, its like christmas https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_santa.gif all year with her lessons as she is always adding new tutorials. You will definitely get the most bang for your money. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

So after 14 months of 30 min warmup on the eliptical and 45 mins of various split stretches, starting at 19 inches I am now finally flat down in my right front splits and 2-3 inches on my left. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif I have to be very warm though to get into it and it still hurts when I’m down flat https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif but I can hold it there with no hands for 1 minute. Here is a split pic on the silk but my splits look flatter on the floor. I will need to take a pic on the floor soon.DSCF4500.jpg

upandover, what is a bungie pack? What does it look like and where can I buy it from so that I can eventually add a stretch to my tricot.
