Classic Moves for Less Flexible Bodies

The Allegra, the Janeiro, and the Marion Amber are impressive moves that are bound to get a wave of applause when executed beautifully on stage. In the years that I have been teaching, I have always been surprised how these moves have eluded some perfectly capable pole students. I learned that the majority of the time, it was not a lack of flexibility but rather technique what held back many students from achieving these moves. In this workshop, I explain how you can use technique to your advantage when executing these moves, and show you several body adjustments you can implement to by-pass the requirement for a significant amount of flexibility.
