Regardless of a pole dance level we all have that special move on the horizon we're desperately trying to achieve. Knee hold has been my Nemesis move for ages. Finally got it last year Pole Goals make me try harder every time a come to studio to practice. Achieving them helps tracking my progress and generally makes me feel good for a time. Here is a list of moves I tried to get at different stages of my pole journey. Beginners (poling for less than a year): 1) Butterfly 2) Gemini - Scorpio transition 3) Superman (what a surprise) Intermediate (2 years into pole): 1) Shoulder Mount 2) Aeysha 3) Jade Advanced (not even sure I'm 100% on this level after almost 3 years of doing pole): 1) Iron X (total nemesis move) 2) Russian Split 3) Iguana Air Walk (or whatever it's called) Expert (hoping to be here one day): 1) Fongi 2) Deadlift (if I do it, I'll die happy) 3) Spatchcock 4) Bird of Paradise 5) Starfish...
I decided to start this blog to show that whatever your level is, you can always improve if really willing to do so. I'll show my progress of the moves I've been working on, as well as splits, handstands etc. Being not a very flexible person myself I realised it is possible to improve overtime, not as fast as most of us would like to. I hope my experience will inspire some of you on your pole journey and give confidence that anything is possible
