Vid #3: Swoop to Back Stag Spin. Beginner Pole Dancing moves

[soccer13109]

how do you get so much momentum? because i can only spin around like one time and im already towards the ground or cant spin anymore and get stuck and thats what im having the biggest problem with.

@soccer13109 Is your pole a spinning or non-spinning pole? I'm using a spinning pole. Please read video description

I love doing the back stag but I think it looks a lot better in split grip.

your pole is spinny but mine is static, would you put some videos with static poles, and ur videos are very useful, thanks

@camcod22 Watch vid #5, it has the moves in vid 1,2,3,4 on static. All the videos after that have the moves on spinny and static

Oh my you do it sooo easily! I just finished my 3rd pole dancing class and we have to do this move in 5 weeks! i dont know how im going to do it

[rkken2009]

wondering if you have any tips on the v-sit (some people call it the eye opener)? I can climb and stay in a sit, and after I get my hand under my butt I start to move a little to the side (rotating slightly,) which makes it impossible to get my legs open. Any suggestions?

@rkken2009

mmm, this requires a bit of wrist strength of the bottom hand. You shouldn't be rotating to the side. Try doing it from a plank ie lower torso down to an almost horizontal position and legs straight and crossed. Then place the bottom hand under the bum. If your bum is not right agains the pole that might cause so problems, so doing it from a plank might help with that.

OR just make sure to lean back first with upper arm straight. let me know how you go

This is a great tutorial, thanks:)

I think i might just get a pole installed at my house :D what's the difference between a spinny x-pole and a static pole? and one last question, lmao-- what's the song at the beginning of the video =)

@MusicIsMyAntiiDrug

It's 'here in your arms' by hellogoodbye. one of my fav songs

A spinny pole can rotate, whereas a static pole is fixed and can't spin. X-pole has poles that can be both. Go get one )
