Shoulder Mount Flip or Cartwheel

How to do a Shoulder Mount flip or cartwheel. This dynamic pole move works on both static and spin pole and requires a solid shoulder mount. A great way to change direction smoothy in your pole pass.

If you are still not 100% comfortable with your shoulder mount click HERE for breakdowns and conditioning for the shoulder mount.

Figure Four Layback to Handstand Descent

How to do a Figure 4 Layback to a Pole Supported Handstand. This is a great transition to the floor with some fun and pretty shapes in the process. No inverting strength required but instead just a gentle descent down to the floor. Any of you that know me and have trained with me know that I avoid laybacks whenever possible due to my knee injury that I had when I first started pole (to read more about my beginnings click HERE) but this figure four layback was always slightly less scary to me and I especially love all the beautiful shapes we can make on the way down. The only pre-requisite to start working on this one is the ability to climb one or two climbs up the pole. If you are concerned about your strength or ability to hold the handstand shapes on the floor then try adding some of the handstand prep exercises HERE.

The Fireman Spin

How to do a fireman spin on the pole. This is a more challenging spin and best for the higher level beginner poler or intermediate level poler. This spin is very versatile because it can be taken down to the floor or up the pole and can be done on either spinning or static pole. With the evolution of pole and the rise of so many pole competitions, pole spins have become almost a lost art in pole! So much focus on big tricks and transitions these days. So we’re gonna take it back to the beautiful simplicity of the spin with this tutorial.

The Shoulder Mount Combo/Climb

How to do a Shoulder Mount Climb or shoulder mount combo. This combo, that will eventually turn into a great conditioning climb, starts with a shoulder mount, hooking the opposite leg and transitioning to either an outside leg hang or right into a jasmine.

This is great intermediate combo or intermediate to advanced conditioning climb. The shoulder mount climb has a lot in common with the outside leg hang (circus climb) and apprentice climb. This climb starts with a shoulder mount to an outside leg hang but from there it is identical to the outside leg hang climb and apprentice climb with a transition to a jasmine and then finishes in a ballerina with the option to continue on repeating the combo and alternating sides as you go. I love using this climb for conditioning because it forces you to evenly work both sides

Once you are able to do this combo on each side from the ground try putting it together and alternating sides! A great way to ascend the pole and dance your climb on spinning or static. If you are still not 100% comfortable with your shoulder mount look back at my previous tutorials for my breakdown and conditioning for the shoulder mount.

The Caterpillar Climb

This is a move that I personally struggled with in my early pole years, so for those of you in the same boat don’t lose hope! The prep and conditioning exercises will help you gain confidence and strengthen your caterpillar climb.

How to do a Caterpillar Climb on the pole. Inverting is NOT a prerequisite for the caterpillar climb you can invert into the starting position for this one or descend down into it. To work on the full caterpillar climb on the pole you will want to have a strong crucifix hold and be 100% solid holding with your legs in that crucifix position. For those of you still working on your crucifix starting position watch to the end of the video for a great conditioning exercise to help you start training and strengthening both your crucifix and prepping for your caterpillar climb.

The Meathook

How to get into a Meathook on the pole tutorial. This meathook tutorial will walk you thru some tips and tricks for finding security and strength in your meathook when transitioning from an invert. Prerequisite for this one is to be comfortable in a straddle inverted position, either from a regular invert or from descending down into that position. I would encourage you to work on this transition on a static pole first before trying on a spinning pole because the spin can throw off the transition if you are not fluid in your transition. This is a beautiful transition and pose on both static and spin, makes for a great addition to a pole pass or combo as well as a great one for your next pole photoshoot.

If you are comfortable with this meathook position and have a solid twisted grip handspring as well, here is a more advanced transition to a meathook from a twisted grip handspring.

Reverse Ayesha to Twisted Grip Handspring

How to transition from reverse Ayesha to a twisted grip handspring tutorial break down. You should be comfortable with both the reverse ayesha and the twisted grip handspring before trying out this advanced transition.The reverse ayesha has many options for entry and exit. If the reverse Ayesha move is new to you please go back and check out my brass monkey to reverse Ayesha tutorial first (link below). I recommend returning to the brass monkey transition to start and then once comfortable with that transition from the reverse Ayesha then progressing to this more advanced transition.

Reverse Ayesha from Brass Monkey Tutorial: https://youtu.be/h9kXS7_K1-E

Outside Leg Hang to Reverse Ayesha Transition Tutorial

How to do a reverse Ayesha from an outside leg hang transition. I love this unexpected transition to reverse Ayesha. The reverse Ayesha definitely falls in the more advanced pole moves category and this, I find, is one of the more difficult transitions into it. If the reverse Ayesha move is new to you please go back and check out my brass monkey to reverse Ayesha tutorial first (link below). I recommend the brass monkey transition to start and then once comfortable with that transition and the final reverse Ayesha then progressing to this more advanced transition. The reverse Ayesha is a beautiful pole move with multiple options into and out of it but it also places the shoulder in a very vulnerable position. This particular transition can take a little more shoulder flexibility so for a great shoulder warm and and regular stretching routine to increase your shoulder flexibility check out the tutorial link below.

Shoulder and Upper Back Flexibility Tutorial

Reverse Ayesha from Brass Monkey Tutorial

Reverse Ayesha Progression from Brass Monkey

How to do a reverse Ayesha. This is definitely not an entry level pole move. The reverse Ayesha is a beautiful pole move with multiple options into and out of it but it also places the shoulder in a very vulnerable position. This tutorial will take you thru a safe progression to work up to your first reverse Ayesha and help prepare you for the additional load on the shoulders. I love the reverse Ayesha because there are so many things you can do into and out of it (twisted grip handspring, fang, satellite…and more). You can also get into reverse Ayesha from a layback but I recommend trying this transition from brass monkey first because the leg points of contact allow the ability to progressively load the shoulders in transition.

The Remi Sit

How to do a pole dancing Remi sit? This multi-level pole trick Remi sit can be an upright pole trick or an inverted one depending on your comfort level and goals. Start with the upright version and then work your way up to the layback version. I’m not gonna lie, there is a definite “discomfort” level to work thru on this trick. Like many pole tricks, this one comes with some pole kisses.

The Twisted Knot

How do I do a pole dancing twisted knot? If you have a solid outside leg hang and you’re looking for some other fun shape variations or things to put together in a combo here is a shape to try adding into the mix. This one does take some degree of shoulder and hamstring flexibility but if you have tight hamstrings or shoulders don’t let that stop you from trying this one out. Different shapes look different on different bodies, and that is one of the best things about pole, all the variety for all shapes and sizes.

The Cradle Spin

How to do a cradle spin on the pole. This is a spin for all levels and can be done on either spinning or static pole. With the evolution of pole and the rise of so many pole competitions, pole spins have become almost a lost art in pole! So much focus on big tricks and transitions these days. So we’re gonna take it back to the beautiful simplicity of the spin with this tutorial. The cradle spin can be a challenging spin initially but once the mechanics are clear it will be well within your grasp.

Forearm Pole Climb

How to climb the pole using your forearm. Your first pole climb is a HUGE milestone and such an exciting accomplishment. Whether you have yet to learn how to climb or already learned the basic pole climb and are wanting to learn how to more efficiently climb the pole this one is for you! The forearm climb has many advantages in that it is essential to many of the future pole transitions and tricks. It helps keep the pole an adequate distance from your body, allowing for more maneuverability and a smooth and efficient ascent up the pole .

Pole Climbs, Change up Your Pole Climbs

How to climb the pole? There are so many ways you can get to the top of the pole either to just change it up or dance your climb. Raise your hand if you are a pole competitor or looking to compete! You want to keep your audience and judges engaged and entertained….The rule of thumb in competition is don’t do more than two of the same climb…WHATTTT? How do I get up the pole for my epic pass then?!!… Here are some ideas of different ways you can mix up your ascent to get to your destination. For break downs of these climbs check out my pole climbs playlist of tutorials HERE

 

Summer Split

How to do the summer split on the Pole Tutorial. This is an intermediate to advanced pole move that we are going to transition to from an outside leg hang. You should be 100% comfortable with transitions into and out of your outside leg hang prior to this one. This move requires moderate hamstring flexibility and the amount of hop flexor flexibility will determine the line of the finished move. Need to work on those splits to get a better line with this one? I have a vertical splits online workshop to help you learn the necessary active flexibility and activation to crush that vertical split! Click this link:

Sneaky V

How to do a Sneaky V on the Pole Tutorial. This Intermediate/Advanced pole move maintains three points of contact throughout. This tutorial will walk you thru how to descend down into the Sneaky-V from a brass sit. I think of the sneaky V as being one of those deceptively hard moves, it looks relatively simple but finding that proper stack and final alignment can be tricky in the beginning. Hopefully the tips in this tutorial will help you have success in mastering this challenging pole move.

The Jasmine

How to get into a Jasmine on the Pole Tutorial. This is a great one for beginner polers. A challenging pole trick to get into. This pole move doesn’t require inverting but instead has multiple options either from the ground, descending or inverting into it. The Jasmine is a foundational move on the pole that builds towards an infinite number of other transitions and moves.

Titanic Variation Shape

Titanic Variation Shape. This beginner to intermediate pole trick is a great one for all levels, both inverters and non-inverters. You can get into this titanic variation shape from an invert or by descending down into a jasmine. For me personally, I find that this shape is significantly easier to hold than the traditional titanic hold. This one seems scarier due to the head down and away from the pole transition but I find that once locked into it I don’t worry about slipping which can sometimes be the case the traditional titanic. For a break down of the traditional titanic click the link at the end of this video.

Cupid Roll to Inside Leg Hang - Twisted Grip

Pole transition from cupid to inside leg hang. This beginner to intermediate pole combo starts in a cupid and somersaults thru to an inside leg hang. If you are still working on cleaning up or solidifying your inside leg hangs check out this other tutorial on inside leg hangs HERE.

Cupid Roll to Twisted Grip Handspring

Pole transition from cupid to twisted grip handspring. This intermediate to advanced pole combo starts in a cupid and somersaults thru to a twisted grip handspring. Before trying this transition you should have a solid twisted grip handspring. If a twisted grip handspring is still on your bucket list, check out my online tutorial on how to train this pivotal move safely and effectively HERE.

Low Flow: Roll to a Croc

How to do a Low Flow, Floor work Roll to Floor Croc on the Pole. This multi-level trick/transition is a great one to add to your low flow repertoire. You don’t have to be able to do a free standing croc to be able to do this pole version. You don’t even have to take your pants off for this one!

The Jallegra

How to do a Jallegra on the Pole Tutorial. This is an intermediate pole split that we are going to transition to from an outside leg hang. You should be 100% comfortable with transitions into and out of your outside leg hang prior to this one. You don’t have to have full split to make this one work but I do find that it does require a degree of hamstring flexibility but don’t let tight hammies stop you from trying out the initial entry and see how it feels.

Need to work on those splits to get a better line with this one? I have a vertical splits online workshop to help you learn the necessary active flexibility and activation to crush that vertical split! Go HERE 

Brass Monkey to Ayesha Shapsie Transition

How to do Ayesha Shapsie Trick & Transition on the Pole Tutorial. This is an intermediate transition from a brass monkey to an Ayesha like shape, with the option of opening to an Ayesha (for those of you that already have a solid Ayesha). I really like this transition as a way for those of you that do not yet have a two point of contact Ayesha to start working on the positioning for that Ayesha but while maintaining four points of contact using the legs. 

Standing Shoulder Mount Roll to Split - Low Flow Trick

How to do a standing shoulder mount roll on the Pole Tutorial. This intermediate to advanced trick/transition is a great one to add to your low flow repertoire.

Play around with different leg shapes so you can find your favorite.

How to do the Titanic on Pole

How to do a Titanic on the Pole Tutorial. This is an intermediate pole trick but doable by many beginners as well. There are many variations of shape once in the Titanic but this is just the most basic breakdown on how to get into it. Depending on the shape of your thighs this move will vary, as all pole moves will, but in this tutorial I will share with you the tips and tricks that work for me on the Titanic. You do not have to be inverting to be able to work on this move but can instead descend down into the starting Jasmine position if inverts are something that you are still working on.

How to do a Phoenix

How to do a Phoenix Tutorial on the pole. This is an advanced pole transition but…..you do not need to have a solid handspring before starting on the prep for this advanced transition. I would encourage you to watch the tutorial and start working on the spin prep for the Phoenix if you have strong one arm spins. Then when you have mastered your handspring the two parts will come together to make a beautiful phoenix spin transition to handspring. For those of you that have a solid handspring but have struggled with this transition, take a step back and focus on just the spin prep. It is developing the spin and timing of the first part that is crucial to making the overall transition work relatively effortlessly (otherwise it ends up being a straight up deadlift).

A BUTTERFLY TRANSITION FOR EVERY LEVEL OF POLER - HOW TO DO A BABY BUTTERFLY, EXTENDED BUTTERFLY AND BUTTERFLY DROP

This tutorial comes in beginner, intermediate and advanced.  For my beginner polers it’s never too early to start working on the steps towards training and strengthening your baby butterfly (even if you’re not entirely there already). Intermediate polers who are already savy with the baby butterfly, it’s time to take it to the extended butterfly.  Even if you have done an extended butterfly but it doesn’t feel secure or it is inconsistent check out this tutorial.  For the intermediate to advanced poler I have a fun butterfly drop transition. This is yet another one of my fav pole transitions. I love the versatility of this trick/transition because it can be executed on static pole with a more dramatic, quick drop, or on spinning pole as a controlled spiral down the pole. You should have a solid butterfly before working on this transition.

Pole Conditioning Tutorial: Shoulder Mount

How to get stronger for pole…focus on your basics and evenly working both sides! I spend 99% of my training focusing on simply conditioning. If your basics are strong and clean than all your tricks and transitions will be as well. Try adding shoulder mount conditioning into your pole time at least once a week. Do 3-5 on each side (depending on your pole level) to start and over time work up to more or multiple sets. Sometimes do your conditioning at the beginning of your training when you’re fresh and sometimes add them at the end as a post training burn out. Focus on quality over quantity. If you are shoulder mounting with straight legs focus on getting rid of those little micro bends and when you’re too tired to resist the pull of the micro bends then go to bent leg inverts.

Shoulder Mounts (3 levels: floor, standing, aerial):
• Beginner: Lying on the floor and standing chest lifts
• Intermediate: Standing with feet on the floor.
• Advanced: Aerial shoulder mount

Maintain the pelvic tuck, lower abdominal engagement throughout exercise.
Focus on maintaining control on the descent from all three levels.

Pole Conditioning Tutorial: Inverts

How to get stronger for pole…focus on your basics and evenly working both sides! I spend 99% of my training focusing on simply conditioning. If your basics are strong and clean than all your tricks and transitions will be as well. Try adding invert conditioning into your pole time at least once a week. Do 3-5 inverts on each side (depending on your pole level) to start and over time work up to more or multiple sets. Sometimes do your invert conditioning at the beginning of your training when you’re fresh and sometimes add them at the end as a post training burn out. Focus on quality over quantity. If you are inverting with straight legs focus on getting rid of those little micro bends and when you’re too tired to resist the pull of the micro bends then go to bent leg inverts.

Inverts (3 levels: floor, standing, aerial):
• Beginner: Lying on the floor and standing tuck ups.
• Intermediate: Standing with feet on the floor.
• Advanced: Aerial invert.

Maintain the pelvic tuck, lower abdominal engagement throughout exercise.
Focus on maintaining control on the descent from all three levels.

Janeiro from Climb and Roll

How to get into a Janeiro from a climb rolling into it. This is an Intermediate to advanced pole dancing transition to Janeiro. This is a fun variation on getting into the Janeiro. I’ve found that for many polers who have struggled with the more common brass monkey to Janeiro transition often find success with this one. It doesn’t require an excessive amount of strength, far less than what many people think. It’s more of a rotation of the hips than a lift. If this is a transition you’d like to try, check out my tutorials. What’s your favorite transition into Janeiro?

Janeiro from a Cupid Flare

How to do a cupid or ballerina flare into Janeiro. This is an advanced pole dancing transition to Janeiro that requires more strength than some of the other transitions. The foundation for this transition is very similar to either the transition for the True Grip climb (see previous tutorials) or the training wheel that many polers use to help them press into their brass monkey by placing their knee at their elbow to give them a boost.. This is one of my favorite transitions to Janeiro on pole because it is such an unexpected one and I love the flare that goes into it. What’s your favorite transition into Janeiro?

Janeiro from Brass Monkey

How to do a pole dancing Janeiro from brass monkey. An intermediate pole trick.

The Janeiro is an elusive trick for polers of all levels. The brass monkey to Janeiro is the most commonly seen transition and the best one to start with when learning the proper engagement and alignment for this trick. To be perfectly honest I find this transition to Janeiro to be my least favorite personal because it requires having to inch the butt from one side of the pole to the other and sometimes it can get stuck.

Try this move out and please tag me in your endeavors with @elizabeth_bfit and #elizabethbfit. If you are having trouble with the move please post your videos and ask your questions and I will give pointers and tips as needed.

It can be done with a true grip, twisted grip and cup grip. This transition to a cup grip Marion Amber is my favorite way into it.
