Hello, supperskinny. Where are you learning to pole? Are you taking lessons at a studio? If you are taking lessons I'm sure your instructor can let you know the names of the moves so we can better help you. If you are learning on your own, have you tried these moves on your own pole. It seems like you are describing some basic movements. Maybe you can give them a try, and post a video so we can let you know how to improve.

Don't be embarrassed for asking. How else are you supposed to find anything out?! Are you talking about around 55 sec? She does a lot of hip rolls and booty bounce things, so where in the vid are you talking? 🤔 And like some people said, give it a try, practice a bit, make a vid and people will help you out. They'll also help you written if you give em a more specific time in the video.

Don't you dare be embarrassed. That's what this forum is for. Asking questions and learning from eachother. Can you post a link to the video and tell us the time stamp on the part you're talking about?

yeah no need to be embarrassed! i think it sounds like you're talking about the bodywave- but i agree it would help more if you gave us a specific time point in the video! also, i'm pretty sure Veena has most of her dance moves in her lessons, so that would be a great way to learn them too 😀

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tGj__eBZIE Here is the link .and the spots in the song where the moves i want to learn are,0:17/3:33,0:25-0:35/3:33,0:55-1:12/3:33,1:55-1:59/3:33,2:20-2:35/3:33,3:20-3:29. I cant move my hips like that. So i was hoping their were videos where someone is breaking the moves down step by step. or if you can learn how to move like that threw belly dance or hulla or something. I am not taken classes anywhere unfortunately i live in ohio and their is nothing like that anywhere. Besides i have five kids and cant really afford to go to classes. Im trying to teach myself for fun and fitness at home.I think pole dance is an art form, a very beautiful art at that. I just haft to learn to move like that. where can i find the newest lessons at. the one i seen are not very many and dont have those moves. Thank you for your help and time you guys are great. 😉 😀 35/

I think I understand. Many women I've met, oddly most of them older women (including my mom!) don't seem to have a connection to their hips, because they either just aren't taught to be that way, or they're even taught it's "wrong" to be moving that way! The best way I can teach hip movement is by showing, but I can try to describe it. First, for things like hip rolls, tilts, and the sorts of things belly dancers do, is to stand straight. Try to get your hips in a neutral position (spine totally straight, usually, but it'll feel really weird), and then lean all your weight on one leg. Push that side of your hip upwards as far as you possibly can. Doing that to the other side, and then front to back (imagine pushing your pelvic bone all the way forward, or lifting your tailbone all the way back and up), and if you put it all together (front, side, back, other side), you can get a hip circle. For what Veena is doing, it's more of a...spine thing, feeling it with your body. Think of yourself, particularly your torso, as a big ribbon, or something equally flowing and graceful. Shoulders/chest first, move to one side, keeping your hips where they were until the veeeerrry end, when they join the rest of you. You can do this in a sort of circle motion as well (which is what Veena was doing). If this is totally confusing to you, then just let me know. I can try to make a video for you instead! I've got big hips, so it's easy to see what I'm doing. 😂

http://www.joyofbellydancing.com/how2bd.htm might be a good reference point to start if you're going to check out bellydance things. Bellydance will help you loosen up the hips a bit and become more aware of how to move your body to make it do certain things that will help with a lot of the hip rolls in pole but some of the things are more pole related so those would need to be figured out other ways. But bellydance is a great place to start getting those hips moving.
