Hello 👋🏾 I have a question for those of you who perform/compete… how do you handle sweating a lot? I sweat a lot and I have this fear that I’ll fall off a pole while competing because I’ll be too sweaty and I can’t stop to wipe myself or the pole down. When I pole at home 85% of my time goes to wiping down my pole, allowing my body cool down or even wiping myself down ( I bought a coated pole just for that reason..) I use dry hand but I always joke that someone needs to create a whole dry body so I can just jump in it lol… anyways excited to hear your tips ☺️
Doing the homework and getting approval from your pole instructor is all the happy vibes I need today!!😁. Thanks Stephanie!
Hey coach! Stephanie Tallant I didn’t more handspring and cup grip practice today. How does this look? I still don’t feel stable. I was practicing both sides- this is technically my non dominant as the base. It doesn’t seem to make as much of a difference in cup grip interestingly
Hi Stephanie Tallant ! I recently decided to focus on back flexibility as part of my training. I used to be able to do a needle when I was younger but unfortunately I lost most of my back flexibility when I stopped going to dance school. I found it difficult to get it back and my progress has been slow. I watched the first 4 videos in your back flexibility playlist and they were really helpful. However, there are so many videos of various length and intensity, I don’t know which ones to pick from. Would you recommend picking one or two videos and sticking with them to build progression, or is it better to try different videos each time? Also, is it more effective to train a little bit every day (10-15 minutes) or have fewer, longer dedicated sessions (e.g. one-hour sessions twice a week) ? Would be great to get my needle back sometime in the future! 😊I’d love to hear your advice!!
Thank you!
Angela
Yess🤭first attempts were really scary! I Trier this tangledsplit for the first time 😊happy!

I'm a bit behind on the challenges, because I'm trying so hard to get this Jasmine to Superman from the other challenge, but I can only get one out of every ten (and they look like this 🤦♀️). The angle is bad, but all my videos had the same angle, and my legs are too dead to keep trying! Please help Stephanie Tallant or anyone! Why are these so scary! I'm trying to get my knee to chest...urgh! I added a jump to Superman at the end, because at least I can do that, and I needed the confidence boost🤷♀️
(P/s I fell out of a shoulder mount to superman a year ago, and only just have been able to do them without a spot again...i am such a scaredy cat).
Sharing a combo I threw together for this weeks challenge. Just missing the tangled split. 🥰
