IM SO EXCITED YOU'RE ACTUALLY DOING THIS 😍😍😍I'll be there 5sure

Stephanie Tallant I was in a Canada goose jacket in 40 degrees getting laughed by the locals, so it's totally fine, it honestly wasn't as bad as I expected. No excuses I'm from the south too 😂

jamimah no I live in Philadelphia, but Chicago is a short plane ride with cheap flights so I competed there last year as well

Susan Papp Mlodzienski, Ashley-Nokomis Travis, and I are all performing at PSO Liberty this weekend!

Sue and I are also probably doing PSO Chicago November 9-10, which rumor has it Stephanie Tallant will be there for my birthday 😂😂😂

The haters: "Sue can't do splitty moves"

Sue: 🤸🤸🤸

To me the set up looked really good!!! There's 2 things I noticed that are making it harder and I think it has to do with you grabbing your foot to try and get in the position.

1. When you tried to pull your foot to your shoulder with your hand you can see your top hand slips which tells me that you're focused more on the bottom arm. When I do it my top arm is essentially pulling my chest towards the pole (and thus towards your legs) rather than thinking of pulling the leg towards your body with the bottom arm. I actually pull so much that my top arm is bent

2. By grabbing the foot that bottom shoulder is essentially in a neutral position when it should be super internally rotated, almost thinking like you're trying to point the top of your shoulder towards the pole so that your bottom hand can point down.

My set up might be different from Steph's bc I haven't watched her videos, so let me do it real quick and post a video of my set up trying to show the pull of the top arm and internal rotation of the bottom that I do.

STATIC GIRL HERE. I like the way spin looks for certain moves, but hate the way it feels 😵‍💫🤮

Stephanie Tallant I LITERALLY KNEW YOU'D SNEAK IN THE FLYING COBRA VIDEO 😂😂😭😭🐍👀 but I actually have started incorporating the band tied to the pole exerercise that's at the end sometimes for my shoulders if I'm feeling spicy, but that's the part of the video that I dread the most 🫠which is prob why I can't do a needle 🤪
