These past two months, I have been reviewing some intermediate moves that I haven’t done in a while to make sure I can still do them, in addition to working towards a few new moves.
Join our Spin Pole Level 1-2 classes at Lache Movement every Saturday at 12:30pm! Perfect for beginners and intermediate students, these sessions offer an introduction to spin pole techniques and teach you how to create fluid, beautiful flows.

Day 2 of me working on my handspring without a spot.
Thoughts:
I’m alllllmost there…I just need that one last crunch(or a spotter. 🫠)
Gonna keep working on this and see how it goes.
Day 2 of Handspring training.
While at this year’s Pole Convention, I unlocked a new move, the Pole Handspring. This is one of the hardest moves to achieve because a lot goes into even having the strength to attempt the move. I have been piecemealing the steps to get this move for some time, and at Pole Con, I was finally able to do it with a spotter. Now is the time for me to work on the move alone- and it will be a challenge.
The thing that I constantly have to remind myself of is that I need to be patient. Rome was not built in a day, and neither will this handspring. Honestly, the fact that I am able to go for this move as a curvier body is an accomplishment in and of itself. So I am going to keep pushing on this one until I finally get it. And when I do finally get it - watch out, because you will be able to hear me EVERYWHERE. LOL.
I’ve been cross-training on Lyra for the past year or so. I love it because it gives me a new challenge that is different from pole and reminds me to be patient with myself.
I recently acheived a cool new move on lyra called the jade. This is a move that I struggle with on the pole sometimes, so being able to do it on the hoop was a tremendous accomplishment. It lets me know that I have the ability in my body, I just need to find the right angle, depending on the apparatus.
So here’s to trying new things!
What motivates you to keep going?
There are honestly some days where I don’t have the energy to do anything- not pole, not Lyra, not clock in to work, but I do it anyway, because I know I goals, and bills 🙃 that I have to account for.
So what motivates you when you are tired?
The Lion King holds a special place in my heart, mostly because of the soundtrack. I remember dancing to circle of life in my room when I was young.
I decided to be Nala because I wanted to tap into my sensual side, and try a brief stint with heels. I am really proud of how the routine turned out. One of my favorite combos!
