    This move does my head in- sometimes I can do it sometimes I can’t and end up stuck in the tuck but unable to drop back.. Annoying, when you know you can do it!!
    My instructor advised me hands no higher than your chin- as you have to get your bum higher above your hands. That little piece of advice helped loads.
    Also tonight I tried this on my left side (non dominant/ weaker) so right arm on pole and left arm above right on outside of pole and got it easier than on my dominant side so perhaps try that too??
    Good luck- I feel your frustration 🙂

    I attend a studio only at the moment but if I had a computer at home and an Internet connection I would have Veena’s lessons too as I have a pole at home and struggle to remember new moves properly after the studio lesson.
    I recently trailed Veena’s lessons and I think they are totally worth the money. I pay £27.50 for 5 weeks of classes so the lessons would be a great way to supplement my learning at home. I wouldnt pole on my own though, I really think you need a spotter to correct you and help you. I will never invert alone as I live on my own I don’t want to risk falling, so the studio is a necessity for me.
    I agree with others in that I enjoy poling with a group and watching others achieve and learn alongside me, it’s a great atmosphere.
    I would always attend a class but I would love to have Veena’s lessons too x
