I can fully let go and grip only with my legs for my knee pit invert
now need to work on transitioning from the knee pit to x-grab without having to hold on

there was one point in pole, it just felt like a chore. I was constantly missing classes and eventually I cancelled my membership. But a year and a day ago, I got tipsy at an informational interview with tuis industry professional 1/2

And I stumbled into my studio and restarted my membership. I was doing 202 and some 101 stuff then. Cut to this year and we’ve done approx six months of 303 and we’ve just begun 404

Here is me doing the swan lake spin at my first 404!! Usually it takes me a couple of classes to get the spin to some decent level, but we kind of got it the first day(?) couldn’t do it on the left, but again we’ll get there

I haven’t fully accomplished all the goals for 303 yet, but I’ll still add new 404 goals to my list. They include: getting my laybacks, shoulder mounts, handstands and whatever else they throw at me this level.

poles sold out on xpole + crazy long waiting lists + no direct xpole store in malaysia so shipping costs and duty costs more than the pole itself
=
no home pole

we are doing intense flexibility and strength training for when we have a studio to go to again
