    can someone clarify for me…because I'm spatially and directionally challenged sometimes, LOL…when you say 'inverting on right side' do you mean  the POLE is on your right, or do you mean you're to the RIGHT of the pole? Or do are you referring to the hand that's highest on the pole?

    you will find the vortex a lot easier to master on the big hoop first…I have many different sizes of hoops, like poles, they are all good for different things. 

    anytime I'm learning something new I try it on all my different sizes of hoops.

    Let me know what you find out as far as minimum ceiling height to rig!

    I don't think 10 feet is high enough to rig a lyra…sorry. 🙁 My ceilings are 9'8 and I know I don't have enough room for one. I think a double tab is most versatile and that's what I want to get.

    When I do conditioning in my classes I always try to incorporate some that students can easily do at home (ie don’t req a pole) and I encourage them to do so. Anything you can do outside of pole class will be great!

    So one area of possible concern might be when parents bring their kids to your house, if the pole is in a highly visible location like mine is.

    My oldest daughter brought friends home yesterday (she’s 14) and I had the pole up. I don’t know if they commented on it to her or told their parents later. I figure as long as I’m not letting them on it and I don’t get any calls about it , it’s good. Ha.

    are you FULLY warmed up before working on it? As with many moves, it's great to condition and work it from a descent, first.

    Not that I do this move. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif But those are truths across the board of course. Take it easy, girl.

    I have 4 kids, 2 poles at home, and I teach pole…so yeah, they know I pole. I don't practice around them often though, too annoying and hard to focus, LOL, and they def don't see the 'sexy' side. 

    I like that they're growing up around all kinds of cool stuff. Silks, lyra, hoop, pole…and I wish I had! 🙂
