Stephanie Tallant I think I got it? but I keep sliding I think it more of a pole/ foot slippery situation though than a technique problem right?
Susan Papp Mlodzienski response to your question you posted here on the feed:
- Hamstring engagement.. make sure both heels are actively squeezing towards your booty
- The sequence of the setup.. it's important to create space between yourself and the pole (which is why spin can be helpful for this move.. the spin helps create some of that space):
- inside arm is high and straight
- outside reaches out, hooks at the elbow
- top arm releases so the elbow arm can grab the inside shoulder
- the free hand grabs the foot
I'm posting a slow mo video of this setup.
Update me!!
John Flynn asked a question regarding more intense shoulder stretches to add to his daily shoulder stretches. I gave him the idea of elevating feet in bridge which is a really good way to put more of the flexibility work in the upper back and shoulders. I filmed a video of this and added a few other ideas as well!Back & Shoulder drills filmed for a specific student on the Pole App, Pole with Steph.

Ok, I’ve watched all the janeiro videos multiple times. I’m thoroughly warming up my back, hip flexors, and obliques. I know the steps; handstand brass, lower inside arm to create the shelf, engage your core, squeeze the $100 bill between your booty cheeks, thrust your hips, lower the leg to the shelf (but keep it lifted and booty/inner thighs squeezed), and veryyyy slowly release the top leg. But every time, I FALL OUT!!! There was ONE time when I was able to release the top leg and start to lower it without falling out right away, but I have no idea what I did differently. Stephanie Tallant is this one of those things that I just have to keep trying, or am I missing something?????
This was a struggle bus. I kept loosing my bottom leg grip Stephanie Tallant
