Half Cradle Hop

This is a fun little hop/half spin to help you work up to a full Thigh rest (Jamilla). Remember you’re pushing through the PALM of the bottom hand (never fully wrapping the finger around the pole) and keep the top arm bent.

If you’d like to learn this on spinning pole, understand it requires more strength as you will need to be able to hold the body up in Thigh rest. This may not be suitable for everyone right away. Stick with the static pole hop, variation until you become stronger.
