I would have to try it to help. I would think that entry wouldn’t provide the most secure grip for the knee pit. Do you have a video of someone successfully doing this transition?
Is there a reason you’re wanting to do this entry into brass monkey? Have you tried all the options in my brass monkey tutorial?

Looking good! I would actually lower to bottom hand a tinny bit more, AND you need to bring the upper body and lower body closer together into a tuck, this will allow the bottom leg to take on more weight making the flip easier.
Look at minute 2:30 https://www.studioveena.com/tutorial/superman-1075/ Pause it an you’ll the slight difference between our entries. Look at how close I bring my legs to my torso.

I can see right away why you don’t feel like the bottom leg is helping. You’ll need to start with the hooked leg up much higher when trying Superman from Gemini on the floor. Right now the top leg isn’t high enough to allow the bottom leg to support you, your toros is too high up.
If you want to keep doing a Gemini from the floor, instead of going right into Superman try getting into Gemini, lower the whole torso down to the floor, then move into your set up for Superman. This will help get everything in a better place for the flip.
Everything else looks really good actually! I wouldn’t call it a fail at all, just a bit of a challenging getting there.
Good luck, feel free to send any more videos if you need help or have success!

Hi there!
Do you have video of your attempts? That would be most helpful for troubleshooting.
Have you been using my tutorial for Superman?

Ugh, that sucks! I’m sorry 😢
I often use an illness as a time to stay in bed as long as I like, drink lots of fresh ginger tea and listen to podcasts and do some journaling. Oh sometimes I use those coloring books for grownups!
Hope you feel better soon!

Yay, feel free to ask if you’re not sure if one is the right fit 🙂

I think it’s because when I’m dancing or doing something that might potentially cause injury. I’m very focused, but in my every day life…..😂
60 days is actually pretty common a lot of people stop and start and some people just keep redoing the 30 day takeoff and that’s OK too. That’s awesome you move onto level one. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help keep you on track.

Awesome job. Yes the link worked. Because you have a private account anyone not following won’t see but that’s ok.

We announced before the launch of this new website that we will no longer be hosting any videos and if you wanted to keep them, you need to download them.
We sent out multiple emails and I announced it several times on all of my social media accounts too.
