Life is all about trying everything at least once! My sister, @polebird's favorite hobby is poling. Just like acroyoga, pole art is a pretty unusual hobby. As graceful as
@polebird looks, pole is quite difficult and requires a lot of strength.
This morning, @polebird eagerly woke me up at 8 am (which is more like 6 am my time in California) for some morning pole lessons. After a cup of coffee, I was ready to go! We captured some funny shots of my attempts at becoming a pole expert.
This is a basic invert. You must pull down using your shoulders and back. This requires a lot of core strength and back muscle.
This next movie is called, around the world. It took me a couple attempts to get the legs in the right place.
This last move is called chair! It looks pretty different from the chair pose in acroyoga... in my opinion it is much harder! :)
Even though I was half awake for my pole class, I really enjoyed it! It really is a pole new world! What unusual activities have you tried lately? Feel free to share in the comments below.
love,
