It’s hard to tell without being able to pause the video but for sure I can say your top arm is too low.

I need to see how you’re entering the move too. 🙂

I have cold dry hands 🖐️🖐️ I moisturize often all day.

For pole I use a homemade dew point mix then add Mighty Grip powder over the top. Nice and tacky with out getting slick like itac. I can’t use either product on their own, but together they work great.

Works for other areas of the body too!

Can you post a video of your attempts? That would be most helpful 💜

Ikea might have smaller chairs. But you’ll still want it to be as sturdy as possible so avoid plastic. If you need more height wearing heels can help for some tricks!

I call it advanced star. Also known as cupid, I’m sure there are other names too.

Little swift I enjoy spinning pole now! It use to be something I didn’t care for, that’s a great goal.

If you are using the lessons at all remember you will find spinning pole options at the end of each spin lesson or at the end of the BONUS pole lessons!

Jihaleh has good advice!

For now if you want to go through the take off program again you can. If you find you enjoy planning your own workouts go for it. Or pick a warm up then 2 or 3 moves to work on for that day. Add in some strength or conditioning at least 2 times a week and you’re good to go. You could try out the 30 day flow program or 30 day flexibility program too!

Building strength takes time and learning these moves isn’t something that happens in a month. You’ll find your body will take to some moves faster than others.

You are definitely not alone I get it! It’s so annoying lol

[Veena]

I would love to know if there’s recipe for that too!

I do have a recipe that works great to make you tacky for pole when mixed with Mighty grip powder

2 tbsp Vegetable Glycerin
4 tbsp Water
1 tsp Vodka, as preservative

Dump everything into a spray bottle and shake.

I spray it on my legs and hands then add might grip powered over it. Works so great on any finish.

I hope you don’t mind but I shared your last comment to my Instagram story. Made my day! It’s anonymous, but if you want me to tag your IG I sure can 😉

Amelia, great idea for short pole users, I like it! For a beginner this might be too much of an upper body challenge though. When climbing we use our legs a lot to lift as well, not just the upper body. I know the basic pole climb is placed first in the lessons, but only as a strength building option. A good climb will use the legs and often if a plus size dancers has trouble with the basic, I’ll teach them the performance climb instead. 🙂

Here are 2 different climbs:
The basic pole climb is for strength building, this uses the upper body more. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/54c44c66-abbc-4646-ab78-7ef80a9aa0eb

The performance climb is the most used climb and is great for performing and dancing in general. Here the focus is using the legs just as much as the arms. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/50fd8f5a-d024-4cbb-a4df-74830ac37250
