In lesson 3 we did a few spins and worked on the inverts we have been practicing from the start! Mine are coming along quite nicely, I just need to remember to keep my legs straight and keep my thighs squeezed on the pole!
The spins were a pole climb spin... climbing on the pole, flinging a leg around and spinning with both legs straight and against the pole, another was called the flying step... flinging one leg across the body and the around the pole, front leg straight and back bent, both parallel with the floor, and the last was a sunwheel going into lotus position... legs out front and back both, bent, parallel with the floor then the back one straightens and comes around the front so you end up sitting! I may have to post a few more pictures as my descriptions don't do it justice!
So next week we learn the last few moves of the routine, one is an invert called the eagle.... (jumping upside down with legs in a V shape parallel to the floor and holding like that) which I actually had a little go of last night and I seemed to do it ok! I was probably holding the pole all wrong but at least I know I can get myself in that position for however short a time it was! I am looking forward to trying it properly next week
