    Smiley Names of Pole Tricks?

    Hi Ladies.....I'm starting to do some writing about my experiences dancing. Do you all know if there are "official" names for some of the more common pole tricks we do, like climbing up and hanging off backswards (backwards angel???), or holding onto the pole and flipping up with legs spread over head? I know that's a pretty random question...I've never heard them referred to with actual names though.
    Thanks!

    yep that's my recommendation as well...vertical dance has a lot of names for their moves...some of them are called different things depending on who's teaching them, but I'd stick to what she uses and eventually they'll all have standard names one day! Hopefully lol.

    I can do 3/4th the advanced, a few of the intermediate and less of the beginner. *laughs to self* wonder why that is... o.O

    right now i'm working on some essays, hoping to get them published - and possibly turn it into a book. i'll have to see how it goes with some of the inital things i have.....wish me luck.....
    yeah - my tricks are all across the board too - some of the beginner ones i can't do at all, some of the advanced are way easier for me - and i think i just made a few up myself that don't - or shouldn't - exist. : )
    also it means having to out myself to friends and family - i was just reading someone else's post about that...but i guess that's a whole separate issue.

    I think thats a great idea! The b/fs always saying i should write a book, especially when i come home and tell him crazy storys of what went on that night. The thing is, if i did write a book, i dont think anyone would believe it, once your inside the SC its like a different world where crazy things seem to happen as standard. Good luck with your writing, keep us updated! x

    When I used to dance I made a special effort to keep the inside of my thighs off the pole becaue I would break out if i let the sensetive skin in that area touch the pole. I used my feet more on the pole and did alot of my moves barefooted I also used acrobatic shoe thongs. I used to hang upside down by my ankles and do situps which semed to get a lot of appluase and hang by one arm and use my legs to spin myself around the pole. God it was fun. I think I want to by myself a pole for keeping in shape.
