Well said darcit

I personally do not teach with counts..I don't have a dance background. I can't stand the choreo classes that I have taken…when they use counting or the north,south, east, west thing..I find its more distracting to trying to figure out what number or direction you are in it really slows me down.. I do teach a sequence of movements so they can learn the transitions and possible ins and outs of moves. If someone was a counter in class I might just ask them to show me the count and to entertain her for a moment. I would just be honest and say..you are the official counter since I can't count generally past three anyway.. I start to skip numbers ..I do this in my pilates and barre classes too, so when someone is a rep counter i ask them to be the counter. i just tell them too, i cant pay atention to them if i just counting it out. I seem to have an intuition when it comes to the reps, so at least I have that.

I would go with the 45. I started on 50s and when I got my 45 everything started to fall into place…now I have a 40 x chrome and it changed my poling for the better… I can work on any size now and I don't notice a huge difference… Pole can be a real struggle sometimes for everyone…good days and bad days…make it as easy as possible. Most studios are changing there poles to 45s and the comps r all 45s

Re read…..no non of my poles rotate in the opposite direction…..only the direction of the chosen spin. They also don't make any noises either…except one of my lilmynx poles sometimes…it seems to have a little bit of camber to it and whines on spin mode.
Maybe you should take it down, take it apart and put it all back together and see if things line up better?

The other video I wasn't really sure what was going on? That's why I didn't mention it. I'm curious to hear what x pole recommends. I'm lucky..I've only had a minor glitch w/ a lilmynx , but it was very fixable.

"Move the hand"

Slow it down…fully articulate through a move, " watch the movement…which means gaze at your hands or your feet..and when you move think of sliding and drawing circles with your limbs…extend and flex( arch and round)
women are naturally beautiful sensual creatures…we don't have to try…we have to "be"
crawls are great practice…when you crawl don't start to move the and forward until the knee comes up to meet it…draw a circle with your foot as you pull it forward and your hand as you pull it forward…you will know when it's right because you will feel like a cat on the prowl or a snack slinking through the grass.

Non of my poles behave that way in the second video…I have an Platinum stages, ill minx, and an x pole.. I would call xpole and ask them.. I would speculate that the pole is unsafe with all that give??

Focus on really pointing your toes hard…that will help keep your quads more active.. Also, when you lift your legs think off the movement initiating from pulling in your abs and roll the legs up… A lot of times you think about lifting the legs the toes flex a little and the knee softens and bends slightly…move from the core, fully complete the tip back in your chopper position, then enter whatever move….

Go through it all time…keep videoing your self…don't be critical.. Sometimes when you thinks something looks good..you see it on film and your thinking that looked a whole lot different to me in my head….but then other times you think you made a mistake and it turns out looking awesome… Stay the course..you get there

I have a hard time at this my self. I find looking at my hands or feet help create a better line

If my skin isn't mosterized I will slip al day long…it's a daily thing. I have to make sure I use pole physics daily ( a little bit) on my legs, and before I pole…and sometimes I even then have to put some dry hands on my points of contact. And before I pole I use a hot damp towel and scrub and dry my legs…then .. Some jumping jacks.. It sounds like your pole is clean, maybe your getting something on your body that is leaving a residue on your skin. I use a special body wash too…doesn't leave a residue, and wash all the hair conditioner that slides down the back of my legs in the shower. I also used to use oil in my hair, but it would get on the pole..so had to stop that..
I love my chrome, it's the perfect grippy for me. I was able to make it really grippy right away. Didn't need to break it in….just clean it and make sure my skin was right.
