what is the extended reverse aysha?
It's a reverse aysha but pushed out away from the pole instead of keeping body close to the pole, it's more of an aysha position. The top arm position changes. I'll see if I can find a link...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6obNVJdrdc Ok, here at 1:53. Does it become a twisted grip aysha when you push out away from the pole??
I'd say yes, it becomes a twisted grip when you push away from the pole -- your shoulders will square up to the pole as you push out. Incidentally, that is one of my FAVORITE-ever Karol Helms vids. I love how she always looks like she's having so much fun up there. :)
I think that's the move poledancedictionary.com calls "batman." When you move off the pole it does become a twisted grip aysha. http://poledancedictionary.com/moves/345/batman/

Me too!!! In fact, it was inspiration for me to *finally* start learning in earnest to booty pop. I figured if Karol could shake that teeny tiny boot-ay like THAT, I had no excuse at all lol.
I know! And teeny tiny is right. No excuses here either, HAHA.
Will try to break it down: First you'll have to consider which side you need to invert on. I'm assuming you can do a twisted grip aysha? If you lower arm in the aysha is the left, you will need to invert on the left side of the pole (pole is on your right). Invert into an inside leg hook, your inside arm stays on the pole, if you have wide shoulders, I'd recommend rotating your grip inwards so it's not wrapped around the pole too much (otherwise you can get stuck when you try to extend out). Let go of your outside arm and reach down past your head, thumb down towards the floor - I suggest looking down at where you are grabbing as being upside can be a bit confusing, make sure the arm is extended and strong, you'll soon need to put a lot of weight on it. From there, start with tucking your legs in towards your body before you extend your legs out in a straddle - I find it's better for balancing. In the same movement, you will want to try to extend your body away from the pole (this is where your shoulder can get stuck). Due to the way your arms are positioned, your body will just naturally want to rotate into a standard twisted grip aysha. Hope that helps :)
thanks for the breakdown. :) i haven't tried the TG aysha, no, I can only picture getting into it from the regular reverse aysha. LOL. Maybe someday!!
